A systemic study for enhanced waste heat recovery and renewable energy integration towards decarbonizing the aluminium industry

François Maréchal, Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Réginald Germanier

The aluminium remelting industry relies on natural gas to transform recycled aluminium into aluminium feedstock, entailing significant atmospheric emissions. Hydric resources are also affected as they are used as sinks of waste heat from the casting proces ...

On the bulk compressibility of close-packed particles and their composites

Andreas Mortensen, Maria Gabriella Tarantino

The hydrostatic compaction of composites comprising a closely-packed particle-bed filled by a dense matrix is measured experimentally using a fluid-pressurization apparatus. A highly compliant polymer or pure aluminium are infiltrated into preforms of pack ...

Surface energy contributions to the work of infiltration in metal matrix composite processing

Andreas Mortensen, Gionata Schneider

The work needed to mechanically drive molten metal into a porous solid preform when producing a composite material by infiltration can significantly exceed the energy change required for thermodynamically reversible infiltration. We measure, by quantitativ ...

Mn-Cu Transmetalation as a Strategy for the Assembly of Decoupled Metal-Organic Networks on Sn/Cu(001) Surface Alloys

Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder

Surface alloying of Cu(001) by Sn deposition is a finely controllable method of tuning the degree of copper reactivity in order to drive the on-surface assembly and synthesis of metal-organic coordination networks. In this work we show that the (3 root 2 x ...

Influence of thermo-mechanical processing on ordering kinetics in 18 karat red gold alloy

Marina Garcia Gonzalez

The aim of this project is to understand the correlation between alloy composition and the build-up of internal stresses in 18 carat Au-Ag-Cu alloys under thermo-mechanical loads. The copper rich end of this ternary system exhibits order-hardening of the e ...

Méthodes numériques liées à la distribution d'alumine dans une cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium

Thomas Frédéric Hilke

Metallic aluminium plays a key role in our modern economy. Primary metallic aluminium is produced by the transformation of aluminium oxide using the Hall-Héroult industrial process. This process, which requires enormous quantities of energy, consists in pe ...

20 Hz X-ray tomography during an in situ tensile test

Andreas Mortensen

This paper describes an in-situ tensile test in synchrotron tomography achieved for the first time with a frequency of 20 tomograms per second (20 Hz acquisition frequency). This allows us to capture rapid material fracture processes, such as that of a met ...

Infiltration of tin bronze into alumina particle beds: influence of alloy chemistry on drainage curves

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Alain Léger

The wetting of angular alumina particle preforms by Cu-Sn alloys is investigated by means of pressure infiltration experiments conducted at 1150 A degrees C, using a system enabling dynamic and precise measurements of the metal volume injected into the pre ...

Plastic activity in nanoscratch molecular dynamics simulations of pure aluminium

Jean-François Molinari, Till Junge

Atomistic models for friction suffer from the severe length- and time-scale restrictions of molecular dynamics. In this paper, a novel approach to quantify the scratching work and the energy associated with plastic activity is used. The approach is combine ...
