An argon gas atomized, pre-alloyed Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti (wt.%) reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steel powder was mechanically alloyed with 0.3wt.% Y2O3 nano-particles in an attritor ball mill and consolidated by hot isostatic pressing at 1150 °C under a press ...
Tungsten materials are candidates for plasma-facing components for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and the DEMOnstration power plant because of their superior thermophysical properties. Because these materials are not common structural ...
Flat-slab column connections are susceptible to brittle failure, which lead to the necessity of improving ductility and ultimate strength. In case of edge connections, the behaviour at ultimate state is highly influenced by nonsymmetrical distribution of s ...
The aim of the thesis is to obtain more understanding about the influence of plastic deformation on the microstructural changes observed in single crystal (SX) Ni-based superalloys using diffraction techniques. This work was organised around two main probl ...
In the quest of the structural materials for the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steels are very promising candidates, with a good radiation resistance in terms of damage accumulation in the microstructure relative ...
Fracture toughness tests are conducted at room temperature and 923 K (650 degrees C) on SENB (Single Edge Notched Bend) specimens of three different (alpha(2) + gamma ) TiAl-based alloys. One alloy is a conventional near fully lamellar Ti-45Al-2Mn-2Nb + 0. ...
Tantalum and hafnium carbides are classified as Ultra High Temperature Ceramics (UHTC) because of their extreme melting temperatures (above 3900 degrees C). Therefore, these materials can safely operate in the range of temperature that any other materials ...
Ferritic ODS steels containing 14 or 18 wt.% Cr are produced by mechanical alloying (MA), hot consolidation and cold working. This study focuses on the evolution of interstitials such as oxygen, nitrogen and carbon at each stage of the fabrication route by ...
Silicon nitride based ceramics (SiAlONs); tetragonal polycrystalline zirconia (3Y‐TZP); alumina and their composites reinforced with different amount of multi‐ walled carbon‐nanotubes (CNTs) have been processed by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). High tempera ...
Ingots of an oxide dispersion strengthened reduced activation ferritic steel with the Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) chemical composition (in wt.%) were synthesized by mechanical alloying of elemental powders with 0.3 wt.% Y2O3 particles in a planetary ball ...
