Five different grain sizes are produced in 0.17 wt% carbon steel using varying rates of cooling from austenitization temperatures. Controlled furnace cooling from 1100 °C and 950 °C produces coarse ferrite grains of 40 µm and 32 µm diameter, respectively, ...
The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of 316 L stainless steel fabricated using the Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) technique have been studied. The crack-free, full density samples made using SS316L alloy powder and the LENS technique are ...
Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels are very promising materials for nuclear applications. In thispaper, the hot working behavior of ODS ferritic steels, consolidated by hot extrusion, is studied through torsion tests. Three ODS steels are produced ...
Friction stir processing (FSP) is a solid state route with a capacity of preparing fine grained nanocomposites from metal sheets. In this work, we employed this process to finely distribute TiO2 nanoparticles throughout an Al-Mg alloy, aiming to enhance me ...
Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate materials for fusion reactor structural components, liquid metal containers of spallation neutron sources, and accelerator driven systems, with good radiation resistance and thermo-mechanical properties. However, e ...
Fatigue damage accumulation and failure of steel reinforcement bars (rebars) is a stochastic process. Scatter can be influenced by the sensitivity of the short crack growth to the microstructural features, especially near the fatigue limit. This work inves ...
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 ...
Silicon nitride is a widely used industrial ceramic, specifically for dynamic loading applications because of its special mechanical and material properties. The investigation of the underlying mechanisms which lead to these properties is experimentally ch ...
A 2D plane-strain dynamically propagating crack under tensile loading is simulated with cohesive elements. Information of the main crack is extracted from a diffuse crack network with the use of graph properties. Micro-transgranular fracture properties are ...
Fatigue cracks tend to initiate on the rebar surface and therefore, the surface conditions may control their fatigue behaviour. This study investigates the influence of surface microstructure and roughness dispersion on the scatter and fatigue life of hot ...
