Micromechanics of oxide inclusions in ferrous alloys

Oxide inclusions are inevitably present in steel as a direct consequence of the steelmaking process; as a result, a cubic centimetre of modern steel will generally contain about a million of these hard and brittle micrometre-sized ceramic particles. Inclus ...

Phase Studies of Additively Manufactured Near Beta Titanium Alloy-Ti55511

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati

The effect of electron-beam melting (EBM) and selective laser melting (SLM) processes on the chemical composition, phase composition, density, microstructure, and microhardness of as-built Ti55511 blocks were evaluated and compared. The work also aimed to ...
