Enhanced strength and toughness of bulk ultrafine grained Cu by nacre-inspired lamellar structure

An ultrafine grained (UFG) bulk Cu with a novel nacre-inspired lamellar structure containing nano-bridges and aligned nanopores at inter-lamellar interfaces was fabricated by consolidation of a nanocrystal-attached ultrathin Cu flake powder by spark plasma ...

First principles study of the effect of hydrogen in austenitic stainless steels and high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Xiao Zhou

Hydrogen (H) embrittlement in multicomponent austenitic alloys is a serious limitation to their application in many environments. Recent experiments show that the High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) CoCrFeMnNi absorbs more H than 304 Stainless Steel but is less prone ...

Annealing hardening and softening of an ultrafine grained Cu-4.5vol.% Al2O3 nanocomposite

Roland Logé, Jun Wang, Chenguang Li, Wei Zeng

Samples from an ultrafine-grained Cu-4.5vol.%Al2O3 nanocomposite rod fabricated by powder compact extrusion were annealed at 400 and 700 degrees C for 15 min respectively, and their microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. It shows that ...

Quench Simulation of REBCO Cable-in-Conduit Conductor With Twisted Stacked-Tape Cable

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

Quench protection is a critical issue for magnet using high-temperature superconducting (HTS) materials such as REBCO. For cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) with twisted REBCO tapes, which is considered for high-current HTS conductor for fusion magnet, the ...

Dynamic study of contact damping in martensitic stainless steels using nano-indentation

Philippe Spätig, Hans-Peter Seifert

The study was undertaken to gain insight into the micro-mechanisms controlling plasticity at the micrometer scale of elastic-plastic metallic alloys. Dynamic nano-indentation tests, where a small harmonic force amplitude is superimposed during loading, ref ...

Effect of cooling conditions on microstructures and mechanical behaviors of reheated low-carbon weld metals

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Gaojun Mao, Rui Cao

An investigation was conducted to systematically explore the relationships among microstructure evolution, continuous cooling transformation kinetics, and mechanical properties development in a low-carbon reheated weld metal (0.052C-1.5Mn-0.3Si-0.7Cr-0.8Mo ...

Variant selection in martensitic steels

Annick Pauline Baur

The martensitic phase transformation in steel is one of the most famous solid state transformation because of its contribution in the development of the modern industry. This transformation from a face-centered cubic (FCC) high temperature phase, called th ...

In situ characterization of work hardening and springback in grade 2 alpha-titanium under tensile load

Helena Van Swygenhoven

Plastic effects during sheet metal forming can lead to undesirable distortions in formed components. Here, the three-stage work hardening and plastic strain recovery ("springback") in a cold-rolled, alpha-phase commercially pure titanium is examined. Inter ...

On the chevron morphology of surface martensite

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Annick Pauline Baur

It is established that the annealing twin boundaries of austenite act as nucleation sites for the martensitic transformation. In the present study, we observe that in surface martensite the transformation only takes place for twin boundaries that are appro ...
