Atomic scale investigations of fracture in metal alloys

Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

The demand for metal alloys with superior structural performance in industrial applications continues to increase, as does the need for more-energy efficient materials and methods. Many materials that are otherwise attractive for structural applications ar ...

Thermo-mechanical assessment of the JT-60SA fast-ion loss detector

Matteo Vallar

A fast-ion loss detector (FILD) is being designed for the JT-60SA tokamak. In this work, the preliminary mechanical design of this diagnostic is described. The expected motion needed to move the probe head between the parking and the measuring positions ha ...

Ultra low cycle fatigue of welded steel joints under multiaxial loading

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa

Extreme loading scenarios such as earthquakes, exceptional wind gusts or tides are characterized by very high amplitude and multidirectional cyclic loads applied to a structure. Ultra Low Cycle Fatigue (ULCF) arises in such cases and can be summarily defin ...

Strength and fracture of silicon second-phase particles in aluminium casting alloys

Martin Guillermo Mueller

The mechanical behaviour of metallic materials that have a microstructure composed of a brittle phase embedded in a ductile matrix is dictated by a complex interplay of factors such as local phase properties, cohesive properties, geometrical characteristic ...

Ultra low cycle fatigue of welded steel joints under multiaxial loading

Alain Nussbaumer, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa

Ultra low cycle fatigue (ULCF) is a phenomenon that can be summarily defined as the deterioration of material properties under high amplitude cyclic loading, under which failure is reached typically within ten to twenty cycles. This phenomenon is observed ...

Description of the capacity degradation mechanism in LaNi5-based alloy electrodes

Philippe Mauron, Mariana Spodaryk, Marco Roman Holzer

The mechanism of the capacity degradation of LaNi5-based alloy electrodes was investigated with a special focus on the influence of the alloy and surface composition, as well as the unique structure obtained by gas atomisation. The electrochemical properti ...

Elsevier Science Sa2015

The findings of the EU 'Materials Assessment Group' (MAG), within the 2012 EU Fusion Roadmap exercise, are discussed. MAG analysed the technological readiness of structural, plasma facing and high heat flux materials for a DEMO concept to be constructed in ...

Modelling oriented investigations of primary radiation damage in ultra high purity Fe and FeCr alloys

Anna Prokhodtseva

In the quest of the structural materials for the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steels are very promising candidates, with a good radiation resistance in terms of damage accumulation in the microstructure relative ...

EPFL2013

For the realization of fusion as an energy source, the development of suitable materials is one of the most critical issues. The required material properties are in many aspects unique compared to the existing solutions, particularly the need for necessary ...
