In the quest of materials for the first wall of the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic / martensitic (F/M) steels appear to be promising candidates. The inherent good mechanical properties supported b ...
In order to better understand the microstructure that forms during laser welding of an 18 carat gold and an austenitic stainless steel, solidification of the Au-Fe binary analog has been studied using thermal analysis and interrupted Bridgman experiments. ...
The Haasen plot (inverse activation area 1/Delta alpha vs. offset flow stress sigma-sigma(s)) for solute-strengthened alloys is usually assumed additive, 1/Delta alpha = 1/Delta alpha(s) + 1/Delta alpha(f), with 1/Delta alpha(f) similar to beta(sigma-sigma ...
A slice of the Havero meteorite which belongs to the ureilite class known to contain graphite and diamond was cut and then polished as a thin section using a diamond paste. We identified two carbonaceous areas which were standing out by more than 10 pm in ...
We study the state of a nanometric helium bubble in bcc-iron as a function of temperature and He content using atomistic calculations. It appears that up to moderate temperatures the Fe lattice can confine He to solid state, in good agreement with known sol ...
W-(0.3-2)Y2O3 and W-(0.3-2)Y materials (in wt.%) have been manufactured by conventional powder metallurgy methods including dry mechanical alloying of elemental powders in Ar atmosphere, cold pressing in air using a pressure in the range of 150-250 MPa and ...
The microstructural evolution of an Al-01 wt% Cu alloy was investigated during solidification at constant cooling rate by in situ synchrotron X-ray microtomography with a resolution of 2.8 mu m. Solidification of this alloy leads to a coarse dendritic micr ...
Directional solidification experiments on Cu-Sn peritectic alloys have been conducted at very low velocity in a high-thermal-gradient Bridgman furnace. The size of the samples has been reduced in order to decrease natural convection and the associated macr ...
Hot tearing, a severe defect occurring during solidification is the conjunction of tensile stresses which are transmitted to the mushy zone by the coherent solid underneath and of insufficient liquid feeding to compensate for the volumetric change. The RDG ...
