In this study, the tensile and fracture properties and the microstructure of the reduced-activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 have been investigated. This technical alloy is a 9%Cr steel developed within the European fusion material research pro ...
The fracture strength of ZnO nanowires vertically grown on sapphire substrates was measured in tensile and bending experiments. Nanowires with diameters between 60 and 310 nm and a typical length of 2 μm were manipulated with an atomic force microscopy tip ...
Molecular dynamics is used to examine the deformation and failure of Al-Si interfaces and of nanocomposites consisting of Al and Si nanograins loaded in tension. The modified embedded atom method, is used to describe the forces and energies in the system a ...
Young's modulus, hardness and fracture toughness of highly ordered nanoporous alumina (PAA) were measured by nanoindentation and Vickers microindentation. A finite element model that accounts for the anisotropy and the pores was developed to extract the Yo ...
Scratch experiments have been used in the past to investigate various contact phenomena such as abrasion mechanisms or asperity contacts. Depending on tip geometries, loading conditions and materials investigated, different crack propagation modes (radial ...
The mechanisms of deformation and failure in Al-Si nanocomposites, formed by adding Si particles to Al nanocrystalline materials, are investigated using molecular dynamics. The deformation and fracture mechanisms are found to be different in the Al-Si comp ...
During nanoindentation measurements of thin films the formation of cracks within the film as well as of pile-up or sink-in around the indent are known to affect significantly the precision of hardness and Young's modulus values. The crack pattern in brittl ...
This work deals principally with two important issues and their interrelation: the evolution of damage in coated cemented carbide tools used for cold forming, and the assessment of mechanical behavior of cemented carbides under compressive contact loads. D ...
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 primary mission of the international fusion material irradiation facility (IFMIF) is to generate a material database to be used for the design of various components, for the licensing and for the assessment of the safe operation of a demonstration fusi ...
