Study on Mechanism of Structure Angle on Microstructure and Properties of SLM-Fabricated 316L Stainless Steel.

TLDR
In this article, seven 316L stainless steel bulks with different angles (0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90°) relative to a build substrate were built via selective laser melting (SLM).
Abstract
In this study, seven 316L stainless steel (316L SS) bulks with different angles (0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90°) relative to a build substrate were built via selective laser melting (SLM). The influences of different angles on the metallography, microstructure evolution, tensile properties, and corrosion resistance of 316L SS were studied. The 0° sample showed the morphology of corrugated columnar grains, while the 90° sample exhibited equiaxed grains but with a strong texture. The 60° sample had a good strength and plasticity: the tensile strength with 708 MPa, the yield strength with 588 MPa, and the elongation with 54.51%. The dislocation strengthening and grain refinement play a vital role in the mechanical properties for different anisotropy of the SLM-fabricated 316L SS. The 90° sample had greater toughness and corrosion resistance, owing to the higher volume fraction of low-angle grain boundaries and finer grains.

Predicting anisotropic behavior of textured PBF-LB materials via microstructural modeling

TL;DR: In this paper , two RVE modeling techniques, based on different texture sampling algorithms, have been compared for their property prediction capabilities, and an efficient method to rotate the boundary conditions for tensile test simulations under different loading directions was developed, thereby reducing the required number of RVE models to just one.

Differential influences of environment and self-motion on place and grid cell firing.

TL;DR: Virtual reality is used to dissociate visual environmental from physical motion inputs, while recording place and grid cells in mice navigating virtual open arenas to show that place cells predominantly encode environmental sensory input, while grid cell activity reflects a greater influence of physical motion.

Bone-like crack resistance in hierarchical metastable nanolaminate steels

TL;DR: It is shown here that when steel microstructures are hierarchical and laminated, similar to the substructure of bone, superior crack resistance can be realized and the exceptional properties enabled by this strategy provide guidance for all fatigue-resistant alloy design efforts.
