Nanocrystalline metals have been an area of great interest in recent years due to their enhanced characteristics. One of the most striking is implied by the Hall-Petch relation: with decreasing grain size the material becomes stronger. This promise is fulf ...
This article describes the microstructure and Charpy impact properties of an Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3-Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS)-reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steel, manufactured either from elemental powders or from an Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti p ...
Grain boundaries (GBs) play an important role for the mechanical properties of metals. In addition to dislocation motion inside the grains, some metal alloys deform along the GBs at high temperatures. GBs can also be the cause of a brittle behaviour of som ...
We measured the elemental compositions of material from 23 particles in aerogel and from residue in seven craters in aluminum foil that was collected during passage of the Stardust spacecraft through the coma of comet 81P/Wild 2. These particles are chemic ...
According to various studies, Grain Boundary Engineering (GBE) is likely to enhance mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials. The present investigation highlights some relationships between thermomechanical process (TMP) parameters of a commercia ...
Copper and copper alloys typically experience a sharp loss in ductility at intermediate temperature, induced by grain boundary damage and fracture processes. The susceptibility of the material to intermediate temperature embrittlement is, as a result, stro ...
Intergranular penetration of liquid bismuth has been analysed in two pure metals, Cu at 500°C and Ni at 700°C, used either as polycrystals or as oriented bicrystals. At the liquid/solid interface, large grooves have developed in Cu-Bi, while micrometer-thi ...
The microstructure stability during δ sub-solvus annealing in Inconel 718 was investigated, focusing on the conditions that may lead to the development of very large grains (about 100 μm) in a recrystallized fine grained matrix (4 to 5 μm) despite the pres ...
A coupled hydromechanical granular model aimed at predicting hot tear formation and stress-strain behavior in metallic alloys during solidification is applied to the semicontinuous direct chill casting of aluminum alloy round billets. This granular model c ...
As a necessary step toward the quantitative prediction of hot tearing defects, a three-dimensional stress–strain simulation based on a combined finite element (FE)/discrete element method (DEM) has been developed that is capable of predicting the mechanica ...
