The Materials Map is an open tool for improving networking and interdisciplinary exchange within materials research. It enables cross-database search for cooperation and network partners and discovering of the research landscape.

The dashboard provides detailed information about the selected scientist, e.g. publications. The dashboard can be filtered and shows the relationship to co-authors in different diagrams. In addition, a link is provided to find contact information.

Materials Map under construction

The Materials Map is still under development. In its current state, it is only based on one single data source and, thus, incomplete and contains duplicates. We are working on incorporating new open data sources like ORCID to improve the quality and the timeliness of our data. We will update Materials Map as soon as possible and kindly ask for your patience.

Abstract

The novel reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steel Eurofer 97 is employed by many concept designs for the plasma-facing first wall of the EU DEMO fusion reactor. These designs feature precision joints between Eurofer 97 coolant piping, for which an advanced laser-keyhole welding technique is proposed. In this work the microstructure of these novel laser-keyhole Eurofer 97 welds is modelled by combining finite element thermal analysis with precipitate kinetics modelling. Microanalysis of a representative specimen via scanning electron and high-speed atomic force microscopy techniques is also conducted, complimented by electron backscatter diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and nanoindentation hardness testing. Models of the weld microstructure agree well with the results of microanalysis although the precipitate diameters predicted are slightly underestimated. Several large void defects were discovered within the weld fusion zone, the cause of which is suspected to arise from the evaporation of cerium-rich oxide inclusions present in the as-cast Eurofer 97 during welding.
