Porosity in Aluminum Alloys

Milan Felberbaum

Porosity is one of the major defects in castings because it reduces the mechanical properties of a cast piece [1]. Porosity formation results from the effect of two concomitant mechanisms, namely solidification shrinkage and segregation/precipitation of ga ...

Au-Fe alloy solidification and solid-state transformations

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Daniel Wagnière

In order to better understand the microstructure that forms during laser welding of an 18 carat gold and an austenitic stainless steel, solidification of the Au-Fe binary analog has been studied using thermal analysis and interrupted Bridgman experiments. ...

Improvement of elevated temperature mechanical properties of Cu–Ni–Sn–Pb alloys

Andreas Mortensen, Vincent Laporte, Doris Empl

Cu-Ni-Sn alloys with Pb additions exhibit high mechanical strength at room temperature coupled with good machinability but experience a significant ductility loss above the melting point of lead. We explore here the influence of minor additions of Al, Mn, ...

Preform to produce metallic foam

Andreas Mortensen

A process for producing a metal article containing at least 10% interconnected porosity, using a preform (11), comprising: mixing an organic binder, a wetting agent and a granular material, to obtain a mouldable paste that combines 10 vol. pct. or more of ...

New interpretation of the Haasen plot for solute-strengthened alloys

William Curtin

The Haasen plot (inverse activation area 1/Delta alpha vs. offset flow stress sigma-sigma(s)) for solute-strengthened alloys is usually assumed additive, 1/Delta alpha = 1/Delta alpha(s) + 1/Delta alpha(f), with 1/Delta alpha(f) similar to beta(sigma-sigma ...

The influence of solid-liquid interfacial energy anisotropy on equilibrium shapes, nucleation, triple lines and growth morphologies

Michel Rappaz, Mario Alberto Salgado Ordorica, Jonathan Friedli, Aurèle Mariaux

The anisotropy of the solid-liquid interfacial energy plays a key role during the formation of as-solidified microstructures. Using the xi-vector formalism of Cahn and Hoffman, this contribution presents the effect that anisotropy has on the equilibrium sh ...

Characterization and modeling of twinned dendrite growth

Mario Alberto Salgado Ordorica

The formation of feathery grains during semi-continuous casting of Al-alloys [1, 2] is an interesting problem from both practical and theoretical points of view. These structures are formed by a lamellar sequence of twinned and untwinned regions separated ...

PHASE FIELD MODELING OF EQUILIBRIUM SHAPES AND GROWTH MORPHOLOGIES IN Al-Zn ALLOYS

Michel Rappaz, Jonathan Friedli, Aurèle Mariaux

The anisotropy of the solid-liquid interfacial energy, gamma(sl), plays a key role in the accurate prediction of growth morphologies in metallic alloys. This interfacial energy anisotropy can vary duo to alloy composition, especially when that of the pure ...

Intermediate temperature grain boundary phenomena in copper alloys

Doris Empl

Copper and copper alloys typically experience a sharp loss in ductility at intermediate temperature, induced by grain boundary damage and fracture processes. The susceptibility of the material to intermediate temperature embrittlement is, as a result, stro ...

Soudage laser or-acier

Denis Favez

In jewelry manufacturing, joining dissimilar materials is usually achieved by brazing or soldering, in which the materials comprising the joint are heated to a suitable temperature in the presence of a filler metal having a liquidus below the solidus of th ...
