Interaction between liquid aluminium and solid iron Al-rich intermetallics formation

Intermetallic phases formation is one of the phenomena, which when coupled to thermal and mechanical strains leads to the premature wear of aluminium die casting tools made out of steel. This work focuses on two aspects of this wear problem. The first and ...

Nanostructuring and lattice dynamics of materials by femtosecond lasers

Ahmad Odeh

Physically, the colour of an object is a complex result of its intrinsic surface properties, its transmission properties and its emission properties, all of which contribute to the mix of wavelengths in the light leaving the surface of the object. Structur ...

Material and velocity effects on cavitation erosion pitting

Ayat Karimi, Jean-Pierre Franc

Cavitation erosion during the incubation period was investigated via pitting tests conducted on three different materials: an Aluminum alloy, a Nickel Aluminum Bronze alloy and a Duplex Stainless Steel. Pitting tests were conducted in a cavitation tunnel i ...

Application of spherical nanoindentation to determine the pressure of cavitation impacts from pitting tests

Ayat Karimi, Davide Carnelli, Jean-Pierre Franc

This article focuses on the use of spherical nanoindentation measurements to estimate the pressure of cavitation impacts and its statistical distribution. Indeed, nanoindentation techniques are supposed to represent an effective tool in this field due to t ...

Scaling study of cavitation pitting from cavitating jets and ultrasonic horns

Ayat Karimi, Jean-Pierre Franc

Cavitation erosion prediction and characterization of cavitation field strength are of interest to industries suffering from cavitation erosion detrimental effects. One means to evaluate cavitation fields and materials is to examine pitting rates during th ...

Compliant membranes improve resolution in full-wafer micro/nanostencil lithography

Jürgen Brugger, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Andreea Veronica Savu, Oscar Vazquez Mena, Katrin Sidler Arnet

This work reports on a considerable resolution improvement of micro/nanostencil lithography when applied on full-wafer scale by using compliant membranes to reduce gap-induced pattern blurring. Silicon nitride (SiN) membranes are mechanically decoupled fro ...

Influence of reinforcement contiguity on the thermal expansion of alumina particle reinforced aluminium composites

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Reza Tavangar Hamzehkolaei, Ghodratollah Roudini

Pore-free composites combining alumina particles within a matrix of pure aluminium are produced by pressure infiltration, varying systematically the degree of the contiguity, beta, of the ceramic phase by sintering prior to infiltration. The thermal expans ...

Peritectic solidification of Cu-Sn alloys

Frédéric Kohler

Many commercially important alloys such as Fe-C, Fe-Ni, Cu-Zn, Cu-Sn and Ti-Al exhibit peritectic transitions on solidification. In the two-solid phase region of peritectic metallic systems, a wide spectrum of microstructures has been revealed during direc ...
