    Microstructural, Mechanical, Tribological, and Corrosion Behavior of Ultrafine Bio-Degradable Mg/CeO2 Nanocomposites: Machine Learning-Based Modeling and Experiment
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023-12) Deka, Surja; Mozafari, Farzin; Mallick, Ashis
    The present study investigated the microstructural, mechanical, tribological, and corrosion behavior of near-dense and low-volume fraction magnesium-cerium dioxide (Mg/CeO2) (x = 0.5, 1, and 1.5 vol.%) nanocomposites synthesized by in-situ hot extrusion assisted powder metallurgy (PM) process. Results showed a significant improvement in wear resistance for Mg/CeO2 nanocomposite compared to monolithic Mg at varied applied loads. Microindentation tests were performed to access the Vickers microhardness homogeneity along the extrusion direction. The corrosion analysis revealed that introducing ceria nanoparticles enhanced Mg's corrosion resistance and expedited the development of an apatite layer on the surface, providing enhanced protection. A feedforward neural network and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network were also developed to characterize nanocomposites' wear and corrosion behavior.

    Deformation Behavior of Nanostructured Aluminum: Experiment and Computational Study
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2023-04) Deka, Surja; Mozafari, Farzin; Mallick, Ashis K.
    Nanocrystalline metals have been processed from powder predecessors in recent times in significant ways, and nowadays, materials are starting to be manufactured which are not only strong but also ductile. Nanocrystalline aluminum (Average grain size 51 nm) was synthesized through high-energy ball milling at the room temperature of microcrystalline powder. The particle size and crystallite sizes were obtained by Williamson Hall and found to be in good correlation with transmission spectroscopy (TEM) data. There was a significant increase in the mechanical properties of nanostructured aluminum in comparison to coarse-grained aluminum. Moreover, a phenomenological model of large-deformation, isotropic, rate-dependent plasticity is developed, which takes into account pressure dependency, plastic dilatation, and non-normal flow. The model has been incorporated into a finite element program. Compression and tension experiments were performed on nanocrystalline aluminum, and the constitutive parameters within the model were estimated from these experiments. The present study shows that the constitutive model successfully simulates the mechanical response of nanocrystalline aluminum with reasonable accuracy using our numerical finite-element capability. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Hydrogen Susceptibility of Al 5083 Under Ultra-High Strain Rate Ballistic Loading
    (Walter de Gruyter Gmbh, 2024-09-25) Baltacioglu, Mehmet Furkan; Mozafari, Farzin; Aydin, Murat; Cetin, Baris; Oktan, Aynur Didem; Teoman, Atanur; Bal, Burak
    The effect of hydrogen on the ballistic performance of aluminum (Al) 5083H131 was examined both experimentally and numerically in this study. Ballistics tests were conducted at a 30 degrees obliquity in accordance with the ballistic test standard MIL-DTL-46027 K. The strike velocities of projectiles were ranged from 240 m s-1 to 500 m s-1 level in the room temperature. Electrochemical hydrogen charging method was utilized to introduce hydrogen into material. Chemical composition of material was analyzed using energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. Instant camera pictures were captured using high-speed camera to compare H-uncharged and H-charged specimen ballistics tests. The volume loss in partially penetrated specimens were assessed using the 3D laser scanning method. Microstructural examinations were conducted utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was observed that with the increased deformation rate, the dominance of the HEDE mechanism over HELP became evident. Furthermore, the experimental findings were corroborated through numerical methods employing finite element analysis (FEM) along with the Johnson-Cook plasticity model and failure criteria. Inverse optimization technique was employed to implement and fine-tune the Johnson-Cook parameters for H-charged conditions. Upon comparing the experimental and numerical outcomes, a high degree of consistency was observed, indicating the effective performance of the model.

    Enhanced Mg–Zn–Ca Alloys Reinforced with Rare Earth Oxides for Biomedical Applications: Experimental Insights and ANFIS-Based Modeling
    (Springer, 2026) Mozafari, Farzin; Deka, Surja; Mallick, Ashis
    To enhance the corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, tribological, and mechanical properties of magnesium (Mg) alloys intended for biomedical implants, a new approach utilizing a microwave-sintered in situ hot extrusion-based powder metallurgy process was used to develop Mg-4Zn-0.5Ca/xCeO2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$_2$$\end{document} (x = 0.5, 1, and 1.5 vol%) nanocomposites. The introduction of ceria nanoparticles (CONPs) has improved the compression characteristics of the nanocomposites in comparison with the monolithic Mg, and the ternary base alloy. The corrosion test results revealed that the alloy and nanocomposites promoted the formation of the magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$_2$$\end{document}) and hydroxyapatite (HA) layers on the sample surface. Among all samples, Mg-4Zn-0.5Ca /1.0CeO2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$_2$$\end{document} demonstrated the lowest corrosion rate. In vitro cytocompatibility assessments were conducted through an extract assay method for different time periods, employing MG-63 cells. The developed alloy and nanocomposites demonstrated no harmful effects on MG-63 cells. An investigation into the dry sliding tribological characteristics of the alloy and nanocomposites at varied loads revealed several wear mechanisms, including abrasion, adhesion, delamination, oxidation, and plastic deformation. The addition of CONPs significantly enhanced the wear resistance of the nanocomposites. Our results provide a new venue to enhance the biocompatibility and in vitro degradation behavior of well-established Mg-Zn-Ca alloys, with a particular focus on the mechanical integrity of the developed samples for their clinical usage. An Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference system (ANFIS)-based modeling approach was also developed to individually characterize nanocomposite corrosion, cell viability, and wear behavior. The predictions offer compelling evidence of the reliability and accuracy of the proposed modeling strategy.

    A Comprehensive Experimental and Modeling Study of the Strain Rate- and Temperature-Dependent Deformation Behavior of Bio-Degradable Mg-Ceo2 Nanocomposites
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024-02) Deka, Surja; Mozafari, Farzin; Mallick, Ashis
    A comprehensive study was undertaken on the temperature-dependent and strain rate-sensitive deformation behavior of near-dense low-volume fraction magnesium-cerium dioxide (Mg-CeO2) nanocomposites synthesized by powder metallurgy technique. The process involved ball milling of elemental powders -> cold compaction -> sintering in an inert atmosphere, and in-situ hot extrusion. The Mg-CeO2 nanocomposites displayed strain rate and temperature sensitivity, exhibiting higher yield strength, superior compressive characteristics, greater hardness, and improved ductility compared to pure Mg and most commercial Mg alloys. Furthermore, a thorough micro-structural investigation was conducted to characterize the distributions of ceria nanoparticles, grain refinement degree, ceria-magnesium interface, formation of deformation twins and interfacial bonding between the reinforcement and matrix. The present study has proposed two modeling approaches, the Johnson-Cook (J-C) constitutive model and a machine learning-assisted model, to predict the mechanical behavior of monolithic Mg and Mg-CeO2 nanocomposites. The models effectively explained the deformation behavior under various strain rates and temperatures.

    Development of High-Performance Nanostructured Aluminum and Its Constitutive Modeling
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2023-10-11) Deka, Surja; Mozafari, Farzin; Mallick, Ashis; Thamburaja, Prakash; Gupta, Manoj
    A new technique, an in-situ hot-extrusion-based synthesizing process, is proposed to develop high-performance nanocrystalline aluminum (nc-Al) with an optimally tuned strength-to-ductility ratio suitable for various technologically relevant applications. Comprehensive investigations are conducted by characterizing mechanical and microstructural properties to realize the influence of various synthesizing variables on the properties of the bulk nc-Al. Furthermore, a continuum-scale constitutive modeling approach is proposed based on dominant microstructural mechanisms of plastic deformation and implemented into a finite element solver using a user-defined material interface. It is shown that the proposed theory can provide a versatile platform to predict the nanocrystalline aluminum mechanical response quite well.
