The thermally activated pyramidal-to-basal (PB) transition of (c + a) dislocations, transforming glissile pyramidal dissociated core structures into sessile basal dissociated ones, lies at the origin of low ductility in pure magnesium (Mg). Solute-accelera ...
The mechanical strength of metals depends on their resistance against various microscopic
deformation processes. In ductile metals, the most important process is shearing of the crystal
lattice by dislocations. One of the fundamental aspects of dislocation ...
Gold and copper are the only two elemental metals that show a characteristic colour, due to the presence of a drop in the reflectivity curve inside the visible range. Reflectivities of all other metals are in general high and flat for all visible frequenci ...
The element Vanadium (V) appears unique among alloying elements for providing high strengthening in both the fcc Co-Cr-Fe-Mn-Ni-V and bcc Cr-Mo-Nb-Ta-V-W-Hf-Ti-Zr high-entropy alloy families. The origin of Vanadium's special role is its atomic volume: larg ...
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 ...
Alloying Mg with rare-earth elements, such as Nd, Gd, or Y, enables hardening from the precipitation of metastable coherent phases during aging at low temperatures. While the aging potential of binary Mg-Nd alloys is relatively limited due to the nucleatio ...
This paper aims to reveal the relationship among low-temperature toughness, microstructure and secondary crack from both microstructural and crystallographic perspectives. Instrumented Charpy tests were carried out in the upper platform, transition tempera ...
An oxide dispersion strengthened ODS ferritic steel has been produced by mechanical alloying of Fe–14Cr–2W–0.2Ti (wt.%) prealloyed powder with 0.55 (wt.%) Fe2Y intermetallic particles and consolidated by hot isostatic pressing. The microstructure after the ...
The effects of thermal treatments on a Co-Ni-Cr super-alloy in the temperature range from 250 degrees C to 900 degrees C, resulting in secondary hardening, have been studied by Mechanical Spectroscopy. The simultaneous evolution of the internal friction sp ...
A model is presented to predict the effectiveness of dilute solutes in delaying precipitate formation, with application to natural and artificial aging in metal alloys. Control of aging is achieved via the binding, at natural aging temperatures, and releas ...
