Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) was used to consolidate powders of a Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo alloy (Hastelloy X) blended with 1 wt% Y2O3 nanometric powders. The nearly-dense, crack-free specimens, with and without oxide dispersion strengthening (ODS), exhibit high-aspe ...

Persistence of variant selection in red gold alloys

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Recently, a new thermally activated distortion with amplification (TADA) effect has been reported in red gold alloys caused by the A1 -> L1(0) phase transformation. The macroscopic amplification is due to the persistence of variant selection nucleated unde ...

The material and exact shape of a nanostructure determine its optical response, which is especially strong for plasmonic metals. Unfortunately, only a few plasmonic metals are available, which limits the spectral range where these strong optical effects ca ...

Theory-guided design of high-strength, high-melting point, ductile, low-density, single-phase BCC high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Christian Leinenbach, Carolina Baruffi, You Rao

The search for new high-temperature alloys that can enable higher-efficiency/lower-emissions power generation has accelerated with the discovery of body-centered cubic (bcc) refractory High Entropy Alloys (HEAs). These many-component, non-dilute alloys in ...

Atomic scale investigations of fracture in metal alloys

Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

The demand for metal alloys with superior structural performance in industrial applications continues to increase, as does the need for more-energy efficient materials and methods. Many materials that are otherwise attractive for structural applications ar ...

A ductility criterion for bcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

A current goal driving alloy development is the identification of alloy compositions for high temperature applications but with the additional requirement of sufficient ductility at ambient temperatures. Multicomponent, single-phase, polycrystalline High E ...

Theory of twin strengthening in fcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin

Twinning in fcc High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) has been implicated as a possible mechanism for hardening that enables enhanced ductility. Here, a theory for the twinning stress is developed analogous to recent theories for yield stress. Specifically, the stres ...

Laser powder-bed fusion of metallic alloys with enhanced microstructures and properties

Navid Sohrabi

Laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) process that uses a laser to selectively melt a powder bed. This process can build dense samples with complicated geometries from a wide variety of metallic alloys. In this thesis, LPBF of al ...

Phase transformation induced distortions in red gold alloys

Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Red gold alloys owe their warm and attractive colour to the combination of gold and copper atoms. Thanks to their good mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion, red gold alloys are used in luxury industries as well as in dentistry. Around the equi ...

The effect of stress triaxiality on the phase transformation in transformation induced plasticity steels: Experimental investigation and modelling the transformation kinetics

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Nicola Casati

In situ multiaxial loading during neutron diffraction tests were undertaken on a low-alloyed Quenched and Partitioning (Q&P) Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) Bainitic Ferrite (TBF) steel with dispersed austenite particles. The effect of stress tria ...
