Bringing casting to microfabrication: processing and deformation of microcastings

This work extends the range of pathways for the production of metallic microcomponents by downscaling metal casting. This is accomplished by using either of two different molding techniques, namely femtosecond laser micromachining or lithographic silicon m ...

Modeling and characterization of the nucleation and growth of carbon nanostructures in physical synthesis

Kevin Rossi

Carbon nanostructures formed through physical synthesis come in a variety of sizes and shapes. With the end goal of rationalizing synthetic pathways of carbon nanostructures as a function of tunable parameters in the synthesis, we investigate how the initi ...

Characterization of untransformed ferrite in 10Cr and 12Cr ODS steels

Roland Logé

Two new ferrito-martensitic oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels reinforced with (Y, Ti, O) nanoparticles were elaborated using a high-energy attritor. The milled powder was consolidated by hot extrusion at 1050 degrees C. The two types of ODS steels ...

Deformation mechanisms in a superelastic NiTi alloy: An in-situ high resolution digital image correlation study

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis

An in-situ high resolution digital image correlation investigation during uniaxial tensile deformation reveals the recoverable and the non-recoverable strain mechanisms in a Ni51Ti49 alloy with a mean grain size of 35 mu m. Recoverable strain is due to the ...

Study of the Hot-Spot Temperature During Quench in the Nonplanar Coils of W7-X

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák

The quench protection system of the nonplanar coils of the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator was laid out over 15 years ago. At that time, the assessment of the hot-spot temperature by a basic adiabatic model was done using design values for material and operati ...

Study on Bainite/Martensite Transformation in Reheated Weld Metals

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Gaojun Mao, Rui Cao

A new combination of laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) and electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD) with a field-emission scanning electron microscope (SEM) is utilized to study the mechanism of bainite transformation in reheated low carbon baini ...

Thermal activation parameters of plastic flow reveal deformation mechanisms in the CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy

William Curtin, Céline Varvenne, Joël Bonneville

To reveal the operating mechanisms of plastic deformation in an FCC high-entropy alloy, the activation volumes in CrMnFeCoNi have been measured as a function of plastic strain and temperature between 77 K and 423 K using repeated load relaxation experiment ...

Structure of amorphous GeSe9 by neutron diffraction and first-principles molecular dynamics: Impact of trajectory sampling and size effects

Assil Bouzid, Carlo Massobrio

The structure of glassy GeSe9 was investigated by combining neutron diffraction with density-functional-theory-based first-principles molecular dynamics. In the simulations, three different models of N = 260 atoms were prepared by sampling three independen ...
