Distortion (undesired dimension and shape changes) is one of the most important problems of through hardened steel components. During quenching, anisotropic dimensional changes are inevitable due to classical plasticity and transformation induced plasticity. Moreover; various distortion potential carriers are brought into material during production chain. This study consists of analytical, numerical and experimental investigations of quench distortion. In numerical and analytical part, sensitivity analysis of the quenching model, and dimensional analysis of distortion were conducted by utilizing experimentally verified simulations. In sensitivity analysis, effect of uncertainties in input data on simulation results were determined, whereas; in dimensional analysis, the influence of various dimensionless numbers that govern quench distortion were investigated. Throughout the study, gas-nozzle-field quenching of SAE52100 long shafts were simulated. Simulations were performed by commercial finite element analysis software, SYSWELD®. Conceptual results indicate that the most important material properties and dimensionless numbers are the ones that govern volume change. Moreover, those that determine plasticity of austenite significantly affect isotropy of the dimensional changes. When unimportant dimensionless numbers are eliminated, there remain 14 dimensionless combinations that govern the problem. In experimental part of the study; effect of microstructure on distortion behavior of SAE52100 long cylinders with various diameters was investigated. In addition to gas-nozzle-field quenching, salt bath and high speed quenching experiments were performed. In regards to experimental findings, there is a correlation between distortions of long cylinders and machining position with respect to billet.

Characterization of dual phase steels by using magnetic barkhausen noise analysis
Kaplan, Mücahit; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2006)
The aim of this work is to nondestructively characterize the industrial dual phase (ferritic-martensitic) steels (DPS) by the Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN) method. By quenching of AISI 8620 steel specimens having two different starting microstructures, from various intercritical annealing temperatures (ICAT) in the ferrite-austenite region, the microstructures consisting of different volume fractions of martensite and morphology have been obtained. The microstructures, strength properties and hardness val...
Investigation of microstructure inhomogeneity in SiCp-reinforced aluminum matrix composites
Gacsi, Zoltan; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Makszimus, Andrea; Pieczonka, Tadeusz (2007-01-01)
The type, volume fraction, size, shape and arrangement of embedded particles influence the mechanical properties of the particle reinforced metal matrix composites. This presents the investigation of the SiC particle and porosity distributions in various aluminum matrix composites produced by cold- and hot-pressing. The inicrostructures were characterized by optical microscopy and stereological parameters. SiC and porosity volume fractions, and the anisotropy distribution function were measured to establish...
Assessment of stability analysis methods presented in AISC design codes for braced frames /
Saçılık, Yılmaz Erdinç; Yılmaz, Çetin; Department of Civil Engineering (2014)
Stability is one of the main issue for the steel frame design. Besides, it would be very complex to deal with especially multi bays, multi storey real structures. Prior to the AISC 2005, stability analysis was generally conducted with Effective Length Method, although it has several inapplicability and limitations. However, together with the AISC 2005, a new stability analysis design approach, Direct Analysis Method, was taken the place of the specification. The aim of this study was to assess Stability Ana...
Modeling of the nonlinear behavior of semi-rigid connections in steel framed structures and its influence on three dimensional analysis of structural systems
Özel, Halil Fırat; Sarıtaş, Afşin; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
In steel frame structures, introducing the nonlinear force-deformation behavior of frame members with flexible joints will show closer results to the actual behavior. In this thesis, a mixed formulation frame finite element is developed from a nonlinear force-based method that can include localized semi-rigid connection response. The formulation of the element uses the three-fields Hu-Washizu-Barr principle, where displacement shape function approximation is omitted with the use of a force-based approach. T...
Characterization of steel microstructures by magnetic barekhausen noise technique
Davut, Kemal; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2006)
This aim of this thesis is to examine the possibility of using Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN) technique in characterizing the microstructures of quenched and tempered low alloy steels as well as annealed low carbon steels. To determine the average grain size by MBN, SAE 1010 steel consisting of dominantly ferrite was used. The specimens were slowly cooled in the furnace after austenitizing at different time and temperature variations. By metallographic examination the average ferrite grain size of specimen...
