Upon solidification, most metallic alloys form dendritic structures that grow along directions corresponding to low index crystal axes, e.g., directions in fcc aluminum. However, recent findings[1,2] have shown that an increase in the zinc content in Al-Zn ...
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 directional solidification experiments on hypoperitectic Cu-Sn alloys at low velocity and high thermal gradient, both lamellar and fibrous coupled peritectic growth patterns have been observed. Two phenomena that had not been observed in previous experi ...
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 ...
Kinetic models have been demonstrated to be useful in on-line batch monitoring systems. The ability to monitor a reaction in real time is invaluable to the production process of industrial and pharmaceutical products. However, it is not a commonly used tec ...
Solute strengthening in substitutional alloys can be classified into two categories, strong-pinning (Friedel) and weak-pinning (Labusch), each with its own characteristic scaling with concentration and temperature. The transition between the two strengthen ...
Precipitation hardening remains an important and efficient way to improve the mechanical resistance of aluminium alloys. In the case of the Al-Mg-Si system (6XXX series), a complex precipitation sequence occurs, which is greatly affected by the presence of ...
Slurries are widely used in important chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. In this presentation we report chemical monitoring and modeling of batch slurry reactions using optical and calorimetric measurement where key analytes are present i ...
We report computer simulations of oscillatory athermal quasistatic shear deformation of dense amorphous samples of a three-dimensional model glass former. A dynamical transition is observed as the amplitude of the deformation is varied: For large values of ...
Centimeter-sized single crystals of Ba2LaFeNb4O15 were grown from a high-temperature solution by using LiBO2 flux and a sealed platinum assembly. The obtained single crystals display the same physical properties as their ceramic counterparts. A frequency-d ...
