title: In situ TEM cantilever bend testing of Fe-9%Cr ODS videos and load-displacement text files

description: &lt;p&gt;Overall Project Description:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Data for In Situ TEM Mechanical Testing in Irradiated Oxide Dispersion Strengthened Alloys - v1.0. This is a dataset comprised of &lt;br /&gt;
videos and raw load-displacement text files of experiments run to demonstrate the use of in situ TEM mechanical testing to find meaningful &lt;br /&gt;
mechanical properties of as received, self-ion, and proton irradiated Fe-9%Cr ODS. The desire to work at small scale in characterization &lt;br /&gt;
of irradiated materials to reduce costs and improve throughput, require the development of novel methods to assess mechanical properties &lt;br /&gt;
in volume-limited irradiation damage layers. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this work micropillar compression (archived separately), cantilever bending, lamellae indentation, and clamped beam fracture testing &lt;br /&gt;
is conducted on ion-irradiated Fe-9%Cr ODS to find yield stress, elastic modulus, flow stress, and fracture toughness. Micropillars in compression allow us to define a minimum sample dimension, which approaches the obstacle spacing of the material, at which size effects are observed. This relationship between sample dimension and obstacle spacing defined through micropillar compression is extended to a new testing geometry, cantilever bending, and material property, flow stress. Lessons learned during the cantilever bending informed the clamped beam design for conducting fracture testing on a ductile engineering alloy at micrometer scales. Finally, lamellae indentation was conducted to link qualitative observations of the microstructure under load with literature strength of obstacle values. By combining an understanding of the microstructure of irradiated Fe-9%Cr ODS and the in situ TEM technique, one can find the bulk-like mechanical properties of ion irradiated Fe-9%Cr ODS.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dataset Description:&lt;br /&gt;
This dataset includes all original bright field transmission electron microscopic videos of each cantilever bend test conducted.&lt;br /&gt;
It also includes the corresponding raw load-displacement data in text file format. The text files were exported from the &lt;br /&gt;
Hysitron PI95 software. The material tested is a model Fe-9%Cr oxide dispersion strengthened alloy in the as received condition and proton irradiated to 3 dpa 500C.&lt;/p&gt;
