Mechanisms responsible for the embrittlement of leaded "free-machining" copper alloys at intermediate temperatures (i.e. around 400 °C) are examined using a combination of microstructural and mechanical characterization. Tensile tests are conducted on pure ...
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 ...
We present an atomistic study of the plastic deformation mechanisms occurring in columnar structures of nanocrystalline Ni, with particular emphasis on the process of dislocation emission form the grain boundaries. The samples are constructed with grain bo ...
The effects of neutron irradiation on austenitic stainless steels, usually used for the manufacturing of internal elements of nuclear reactors (e.g. the core shrouds), are the alteration of the microchemistry and the microstructure, and, as a consequence, ...
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 ...
Semi-continuous direct-chill (DC) casting of aluminium ingots suffers from a very frequent defect which can lead to a strong decrease in productivity: hot tearing. This phenomenon takes place in the mushy state (i.e., at solid fractions, gs, lower than uni ...
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 an insufficient liquid feeding to compensate for the volumetric change. In ...
Microstructural analysis and mechanical testing have been performed on two types of nanocrystalline (NC) Ni samples and compared to coarse-grained (CG) Ni. The NC electrodeposited (ED) Ni is characterized by a mean grain size of 21 nm, a narrow grain size ...
Modeling of the constitutive behavior was undertaken for Fe- Cr-C tempered martensitic alloys. Tensile tests were carried out at room temperature and constant nominal strain rate. In order to obtain a fully martensitic structure with different prior austen ...
By following the densification kinetics of nanocrystalline γ alumina and corresponding microstructural evolution we showed that the diffusive transformation gamma-alpha involves several processes such as nucleation of alpha phase, rearrangement of gamma cr ...
