    Artificial Neural Networks for Predicted Bending Properties of Additively Manufactured Pyramidal Lattice Truss Core Sandwich Structures
    (Elsevier, 2025) Karagozlu, Cem Onat; Ayli, Ece; Tanabi, Hamed; Sabuncuoglu, Baris
    An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is developed to predict the mechanical behavior of pyramidal lattice truss core sandwich structures under bending load. The development process aims to optimize material use, enhance structural efficiency, and reduce analysis time for the developed ANN model. Key phases include specimen fabrication via additive manufacturing, experimental testing in four-point bending, and validation of the finite element model (FEM). Experimental tests on five specimens validated FEM simulations with a 4.5 % error rate. The ANN, trained on FEM data, accurately predicts reaction forces and stress components (sigma,, sigma 2, tau,2). Comparison of training algorithms (LM, Levenberg-Marquardt, BR, Bayesian Regularization, SCG, Scaled Conjugate Gradient) highlights LM's superior performance in convergence and MSE reduction (max. MSE value: 2.287), while BRexcels in generalization and robustness. Scaled Conjugate Gradient's performance was lower than the others. The ANN demonstrates high accuracy within the training range but shows limitations in extrapolation. Overall, this ANN model offers engineers a rapid and precise tool for predicting the mechanical behavior of these sandwich structures, reducing reliance on time-consuming FEM simulations and facilitating efficient design optimization across various engineering applications.

    Effect of Post Fabrication Aging Treatment on the Microstructure, Crystallographic Texture and Elevated Temperature Mechanical Properties of In718 Alloy Fabricated by Selective Laser Melting
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2022) Bilgin, Guney Mert; Davut, Kemal; Esen, Ziya; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Ozer, Seren
    The effect of building direction and post fabrication aging treatment on the microstructure, crystallographic texture and high temperature mechanical properties of Inconel 718 (IN718) alloy fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) method was investigated. After aging, arc-shaped structures seen in as-fabricated samples dis-appeared and converted into a mixture of columnar and equiaxed grains. Nano-sized gamma '' and/or gamma' precipitates were formed upon aging; however, MC type carbides and Laves phase encountered in as-fabricated samples were not dissolved completely after aging. Moreover, aging did not alter the texture ((001)//building direction (BD)) of as-fabricated samples. Mechanical properties of the alloys under tension were influenced by the build direction, aging time and test temperature. As-fabricated samples produced in vertical direction exhibited higher room temperature strengths with lower ductility due to orientation of overlapped prior melt pools. Room temperature tensile test results revealed that peak aging caused a significant improvement in ultimate tensile strength (UTS), from 1066.5 MPa and 998.4 MPa to 1408.5 MPa and 1330.4 MPa whereas elongation values decreased from 27.5% and 32.2% to 19.6% and 23.7% in vertically and horizontally built samples, respectively. Peak-aged samples (aged at 700 degrees C for 8 h) tested at 600 degrees C displayed serrated regions in their stress-strain curves due to dynamic strain aging (DSA). Although strength values of the samples displayed an expected decrease by temperature, ductility of the samples reduced to minimum at temperatures around 700-800 degrees C, which was attributed to intermediate temperature embrittlement.

    Microstructural and Texture Evolution During Thermo-Hydrogen Processing of Ti6al4v Alloys Produced by Electron Beam Melting
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2020) Esen, Ziya; Davut, Kemal; Tan, Evren; Gumus, Berkay; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Dogu, Merve Nur
    The present study was conducted to reveal the effects of building angles and post heat-treatments (2-step Thermo-Hydrogen Processing (THP) and conventional annealing treatment) on the density, microstructure and texture of Ti6Al4V alloy parts produced by Electron Beam Melting (EBM). The results showed that regardless of the building angle; the density, microstructure and crystallographic texture (defined with respect to building angle) of the as-produced samples were identical; having Widmanstatten a structure and columnar beta-grains which are parallel to building direction. The main texture component for the alpha phase was (10 (1) over bar0)//building direction, and for beta phase (001)//building or heat flow direction. The first step of THP, namely, the hydrogenation step, produced a needle-like microstructure and increased the local misorientations due to lattice distortion. On the other hand, after application of the second step of THP, dehydrogenation step, microstructure was refined, particularly alpha-grains that were larger than 10 mu m and located at grain boundaries. Moreover, THP randomized the crystallographic texture since it involves beta to alpha phase transformation, at which one beta-grain can produce 12 distinct alpha-variants. The grain boundary misorientation distributions also changed in accordance with the microstructural changes during the 2-step THP. On the other hand, annealing coarsened the grain boundary and Widmanstatten alpha phases; moreover, it changed the texture so that the basal planes (0001) rotated 30 degrees around the building direction.

    Optimization of the Mechanical Properties of Ti-6al Alloy Fabricated by Selective Laser Melting Using Thermohydrogen Processes
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2017) Esen, Ziya; Akin, Seniz Kushan; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Bilgin, Guney Mert
    2-step Thermo Hydrogen Process (THP) including hydrogenation and dehydrogenation steps was applied to Ti-6Al-4V alloy fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) process to refine the microstructure and to increase the ductility of the alloy. It was observed that as-fabricated alloy's surface was composed of oxides of titanium and aluminum, which may alter the hydrogenation kinetics. The hydrogen treatment for 1 hat 650 degrees C, the maximum hydrogen solubility temperature of the alloy, transformed starting non-equilibrium alpha'-martensitic phase to 13 and 8 (TiH2) phases. On the other hand, very fine discontinuous beta-phase was formed along with alpha-phase as a result of dehydrogenation at 700 degrees C for 18 h, which decreased the hydrogen level well below the starting value and caused transformation of delta-phase to fine alpha-phase. In contrast to commonly used THP treatments consisting of betatizing at high temperature, 2-step treatment prevented grain boundary alpha-phase formation as well as excessive grain growth. About 110% and 240% increments were detected in % Elongation (EL) and % Reduction in Area (RA) values, respectively, as a result of 2-step THP, while the strength decrease was limited to 10%. The change in ductility of the alloy was also verified by transformation of flat and shiny fracture surfaces seen in SLM fabricated alloy to a fracture surface containing equiaxed dimples after THP treatment. The hardness drop in the alloy after hydrogenation and dehydrogenation treatments was attributed to relief of residual stress and formation of equilibrium alpha and beta-phases.
