The main aim of this work was to study and understand the influence of SiC particles on the corrosion and tribocorrosion of Al-matrix composite materials. For that, Al-SiCp functionally graded composites were produced by centrifugal casting and different S ...
In this work Fe-Cr compounds, as model alloys for the ferritic base steels that are considered as main candidates for the structural materials of the future fusion reactors, are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The Cr or so-called alpha' preci ...
The biomedical industry has an increasing demand for dissimilar metal joining processes, which are used for complex configuration designs, such as guidewires and other intravascular interventional devices. Their production becomes more and more challenging ...
The structure of the hardening η′-phase precipitates in Al–Zn–Mg alloys has been investigated by using precession electron diffraction and X-ray synchrotron radiation diffraction. The latter was recorded as a three-dimensional, continuous intensity distrib ...
A multi-scale, computational design approach for aluminum sheet alloys, which includes key inputs from the electronic, atomistic, microstructural, and continuum length scales, is reviewed within the context of room and elevated temperature forming. Specifi ...
The main goal of this work was to manufacture an oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) reduced activation ferritic steel from a pre-alloyed, gas atomised Fe-14Cr-2W-0.2Ti (in wt.%) powder mechanically alloyed with either 0.3%Y2O(3) or 0.5%Fe2Y particles and ...
Ferritic/martensitic (FM) steels, F82H and Optimax-A, were irradiated up to 11.3 dpa/1175 appm He in Target-3 of the Swiss Spallation Neutron Source (SINQ). To investigate helium-induced hardening effect, micro-hardness and microstructure of the irradiated ...
The main goal of this work was to manufacture an oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) reduced activation ferritic steel from a pre-alloyed, gas atomised Fe-14Cr-2W-0.2Ti (in wt.%) powder mechanically alloyed with either 0.3%Y2O(3) or 0.5%Fe2Y particles and ...
The Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steel was fabricated by mechanical alloying of a pre-alloyed, gas atomised powder with yttria nano-particles, followed by hot isostatic pressing and ther ...
The paper presents the microstructure and mechanical properties of an oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS), reduced activation, ferritic steel, namely the Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) alloy, which was fabricated by hot isostatic pressing followed by high sp ...
