The methodology of direct finite element (FE) simulation was used to predict the semi-solid constitutive behavior of an industrially important aluminum-magnesium alloy, AA5182. Model microstructures were generated that detail key features of the as-cast se ...
During the crossing of brittle rock formations at the Lötschberg base tunnel, failure phenomena have been observed both at the tunnel face and at the walls. A detailed analysis has been undertaken to explain these behaviours, based on the recent developmen ...
In the quest of materials for the first wall of the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic / martensitic (F/M) steels appear to be promising candidates. The inherent good mechanical properties supported b ...
The constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
The fracture properties of the 9CrWVTa reduced-activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 were studied in the lower ductile to brittle transition. Sub-sized pre-cracked compact tension and notched tensile specimens were tested. Finite element simulati ...
We report fracture toughness data for the reduced activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 in the lower to middle transition region. The fracture toughness was measured from tests carried out on 0.35T and 0.87T pre-cracked compact tension specimens. ...
Mechanical-loss measurements were performed in three grades of martensitic high-carbon tool steels. These steels were treated under carburizing gas before quenching, in order to vary the concentration of interstitial carbon in the martensite, as assessed b ...
In the forging industry, tools represent an important part in term of production and costs. Enhancing their life cycle is then a challenging issue. Several mechanical and thermal mechanisms are responsible for hot forging tools damage such as wear, thermal ...
The fracture properties of the 9CrWVTa reduced-activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 were studied in the lower ductile to brittle transition. Sub-sized pre-cracked compact tension and notched tensile specimens were tested. Finite element simu ...
Polycrystalline zirconia (3Y-TZP grade) unreinforced and reinforced with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) or silicon carbide whiskers (SiCw) or silicon carbide particles (SiCp) have been processed and studied by mechanical spectroscopy with complementar ...
