Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Investigation of Hydrogen Diffusion Profile of Different Metallic Materials for a Better Understanding of Hydrogen Embrittlement(Gazi Univ, 2023-12-01) Kapci, Mehmet Fazil; Bal, BurakIn this study, hydrogen diffusion profiles of different metallic materials were investigated. To model hydrogen diffusion, 1D and 2D mass diffusion models were prepared in MATLAB. Iron, nickel and titanium were selected as a material of choice to represent body-centered cubic, facecentered cubic, and hexagonal closed paced crystal structures, respectively. In addition, hydrogen back diffusion profiles were also modeled after certain baking times. Current results reveal that hydrogen diffusion depth depends on the microstructure, energy barrier model, temperature, and charging time. In addition, baking can help for back diffusion of hydrogen and can be utilized as hydrogen embrittlement prevention method. Since hydrogen diffusion is very crucial step to understand and evaluate hydrogen embrittlement, current set of results constitutes an important guideline for hydrogen diffusion calculations and ideal baking time for hydrogen back diffusion for different materials. Furthermore, these results can be used to evaluate hydrogen content inside the material over expensive and hard to find experimental facilities such as, thermal desorption spectroscopy.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Experimental and Molecular Dynamics Simulation-Based Investigations on Hydrogen Embrittlement Behavior of Chromium Electroplated 4340 Steel(ASME, 2021-06-17) Dogan, Ozge; Kapci, Mehmet Fazil; Esat, Volkan; Bal, BurakIn this study, chromium electroplating process, corresponding hydrogen embrittlement, and the effects of baking on hydrogen diffusion are investigated. Three types of materials in the form of Raw 4340 steel, Chromium electroplated 4340 steel, and Chromium electroplated and baked 4340 steel are used in order to shed light on the aforementioned processes. Mechanical and microstructural analyses are carried out to observe the effects of hydrogen diffusion. Mechanical analyses show that the tensile strength and hardness of the specimens deteriorate after the chrome-electroplating process due to the presence of atomic hydrogen. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses are carried out for material characterization. Microstructural analyses reveal that hydrogen enters into the material with chromium electroplating process, and baking after chromium electroplating process is an effective way to prevent hydrogen embrittlement. Additionally, the effects of hydrogen on the tensile response of alpha-Fe-based microstructure with a similar chemical composition of alloying elements are simulated through molecular dynamics (MD) method.
