Fretting-corrosion behavior of electroless Ni-P/Ni-P-TiO2 coatings obtained on AZ91D magnesium alloy by a chromium-free process

Ni-P electroless coatings are widely applied for protection of magnesium alloys and other materials due to the low energy consumption of the process and high resistance to corrosion and wear, properties that can be improved with the incorporation of partic ...

Performance of Embedded Bolt Shear Connectors

Scott Walbridge, Matthew James Sjaarda

A laboratory research program carried out at the University of Waterloo featured the testing of three large-scale steel-concrete composite beam specimens with embedded bolt shear connectors. A detailed assessment of the connector performance was made, faci ...

3D laser shock peening as a way to improve geometrical accuracy in selective laser melting

Roland Logé, Nikola Kalentics, Andreas Burn, Michael Cloots

One of the major drawbacks of selective laser melting (SLM) is the accumulation of tensile residual stresses (TRS) in the surface and subsurface zones of produced parts which can lead to cracking, delamination, geometrical distortions, and a decrease in fa ...

Mechanical properties of thermally grown submicron oxide layers on a nickel-based superalloy

Joris Pierre Everaerts, Wei Li

Nickel-based superalloys are frequently used under operating conditions that lead to the formation of an oxide layer. In this study, the mechanical properties of such a submicron oxide scale formed on a nickel-based superalloy were evaluated. The Poisson’s ...

Nanoscale Depth Profiling of Residual Stresses Due to Fine Surface Finishing

Joris Pierre Everaerts

Mechanical polishing is commonly used for both surface finishing and metallographic sample preparation for a broad range of materials. However, polishing causes local deformation and induces residual stress, which has an important effect on many surface ph ...

Enhanced precipitate growth at reduced temperatures during chemical ordering in deformed red gold alloys

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem, Nadine Baluc, Marina Garcia Gonzalez, Samy Hocine

Manufacturing of red gold components relies widely on controlling the formation of ordered precipitates during thermo-mechanical processing. The ordered phase hardens the material, makes it less workable and introduces residual stresses. We show that an in ...

Recommendations for Improved Welding Procedures for Thick Steel Plates Through Thermo-Mechanical Analysis

Dimitrios Lignos

Welding of steel plates is accompanied by residual stresses that increase as the constraint provided by the welded components becomes greater. Consequently, crack initiation has been reported after welding thick plates due to the high residual stresses dev ...
