High entropy alloys: A focused review of mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms

The high-entropy alloy (HEA) concept was based on the idea that high mixing entropy can promote formation of stable single-phase microstructures. During the past 15 years, various alloy systems have been explored to identify HEA systems with improved prope ...

Effect of solute-solute interactions on strengthening of random alloys from dilute to high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Shankha Nag

The yield strength of random metal alloys, i.e. alloys with random occupation of the crystalline lattice sites by the elemental constituent atoms all considered as solutes, is primarily understood as controlled by solute/dislocation interactions. Solute-so ...

Intrinsic fracture behavior of Mg-Y alloys

William Curtin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

Pure magnesium (Mg) is an attractive metal for structural applications due to its low density, but also has low ductility and low fracture toughness. Dilute alloying of Mg with rare earth elements in small amounts improves the ductility, but the effects of ...

Origin of high strength in the CoCrFeNiPd high-entropy alloy

William Curtin, Binglun Yin

IMPACT STATEMENT Experiments and theory are highlighting chemical ordering in high-entropy alloys (HEAs) as important for mechanical properties but the high strength in CoCrFeNiPd is predicted here to be achievable in the random alloy due to the large misf ...

Advanced analytical electron microscopy applied to Solid Oxide Cell materials and their degradation

Stéphane François Jean Poitel

Electron microscopy offers a wide range of techniques to study materials. Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM), in particular, allows the characterisation of samples at high-temperature using a laser heating stage, and under various gaseous at ...

Out-of-plane (flatwise) behavior of through-tenon connections using the integral mechanical attachment technique

Yves Weinand, Aryan Rezaei Rad, Henry V. Burton

This paper aims to characterize the force–deformation response of through-tenon wood-wood connections subjected to out-of-plane (flatwise) loads. Six beech LVL timber specimen groups with variations in the fiber orientation (parallel and perpendicular) and ...

Resistance and ductility of FRP composite hybrid joints

Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Xin Wang

An experimental investigation of the load-bearing behavior and ductility of FRP hybrid double-lap joints composed of both adhesively-bonded and bolted connection parts was conducted. Amongst other things, the effects of the adherends’ fiber architecture (u ...

Guanidinium-Assisted Surface Matrix Engineering for Highly Efficient Perovskite Quantum Dot Photovoltaics

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Xiaoyu Zhang, Jiabao Yang, Chunyang Zhang, Xufeng Ling, Wanli Ma

Metal halide perovskite quantum dots (Pe-QDs) are of great interest in new-generation photovoltaics (PVs). However, it remains challenging in the construction of conductive and intact Pe-QD films to maximize their functionality. Herein, a ligand-assisted s ...

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 ...

Multiaxial ultra low cycle fatigue in welded high strength steel structural components

Alain Nussbaumer, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa

Extreme events often subject regions of structural steel components to large inelastic strains. In conditions such as earthquakes, exceptional winds gusts or tides the loading scenario is cyclical, variable amplitude and frequently multiaxial in nature, an ...
