Phase Transformation-Induced Interfacial Debonding of Silica Inclusions in Iron
Andreas Mortensen, David Hernandez Escobar, Julie Nathalie S Gheysen, Alejandra Inés Slagter
We document that in unstressed, undeformed, samples of pure iron containing silica inclusions precipitated by melt deoxidation, the iron matrix and a small fraction of the silica inclusions are locally separated at room temperature by a void. Thermal cycli ...
New York2023Processing and micro-mechanical characterization of multi-component transition MC carbides in iron
Andreas Mortensen, Goran Zagar, Léa Deillon, Marta Fornabaio, Lionel Michelet
We prepare multi-component transition monocarbides of chosen composition by arc-melting together a pre-alloy of the transition metals and cast iron. Based on the elements Ti, Ta, V, Nb and W, 51 different binary, ternary and quaternary compositions are pro ...
2021Composition and Pressure Effects on Partitioning of Ferrous Iron in Iron-Rich Lower Mantle Heterogeneities
Philippe Gillet, Marco Cantoni, James Badro, Susannah McGregor Dorfman, Farhang Nabiei, Charles-Edouard Boukaré
Both seismic observations of dense low shear velocity regions and models of magma ocean crystallization and mantle dynamics support enrichment of iron in Earth’s lowermost mantle. Physical properties of iron-rich lower mantle heterogeneities in the modern ...
2021Atomic Scale Investigations into the Origins of Ductility in Mg Alloys
The industrial applications of Mg, the lightest structural metal, and abundant in Earth's crust, are hampered by its low intrinsic ductility and low fracture toughness at room temperature which is attributed to the underlying less symmetric and plastically ...
EPFL2020Design of Ductile Rare-Earth-Free Magnesium Alloys
William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad
Pure Mg has low ductility due to a transition of < c+a > pyramidal dislocations to a sessile basal-oriented structure. Dilute alloying generally improves ductility. Enhancement of pyramidal cross-slip from the lower-energy pyramidal II plane to the higher- ...
SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG2020Bi-stable spin-crossover in charge-neutral [Fe(R-ptp)(2)] (ptp=2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)pyridine) complexes
Bi-stable charge-neutral iron(II) spin-crossover (SCO) complexes are a class of switchable molecular materials proposed for molecule-based switching and memory applications. In this study, we report on the SCO behavior of a series of iron(II) complexes com ...
2020Designing high ductility in magnesium alloys
William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad
The thermally activated pyramidal-to-basal (PB) transition of (c + a) dislocations, transforming glissile pyramidal dissociated core structures into sessile basal dissociated ones, lies at the origin of low ductility in pure magnesium (Mg). Solute-accelera ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2019Getting More Out of Existing Structures: Steel Bridge Strengthening via UHPFRC
Ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced cement-based composite (UHPFRC) has been increasingly adopted for rehabilitation projects over the past two decades, proving itself as a reliable, cost-efficient and sustainable alternative against conventional metho ...
2019Porous networks based on iron(ii) clathrochelate complexes
Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, José Luis Bila, Emilie Baudat, Andrea Luca Ramorini, Joffrey Vincent Michel Pijeat
Microporous networks based on boronate ester-capped iron(II) clathrochelate complexes are described. The networks were obtained by covalent cross-linking of tetrabrominated clathrochelate complexes via Suzuki–Miyaura polycross-coupling reactions with dibor ...
2019FVPM numerical simulation of the effect of particle shape and elasticity on impact erosion
François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Sebastián Camilo Leguizamón Sarmiento, Siamak Alimirzazadeh
The erosion of hydraulic machines by solid particle impacts is a widespread problem that leads to outage for expensive repairs, efficiency reduction, and cavitation enhancement. Numerical simulations can be used to study the phenomenon, provided they featu ...
