The in plane coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the residual stress of nanostructured W based coatings are extensively investigated. The CTE and the residual stresses are derived by means of an optimized ad-hoc developed…
In Ni-base superalloys with low Al and/or Ti content the precipitation and subsequent coarsening of gamma' particles at intermediate temperatures contribute to the degradation of the mechanical properties of the alloy. In the present paper…
Electrical resistivity evolution during precipitation in Al-Sc alloys is modeled using cluster dynamics. This mesoscopic modeling has already been shown to correctly predict the time evolution of the precipitate size distribution. In this…
The mechanical properties of Mg-Al alloys are greatly influenced by the complex intermetallic phase Mg$_{17}$Al$_{12}$, which is the most dominant precipitate found in this alloy system. The interaction of basal edge and 30$^\text{o}$…
Substitutional tungsten doping of VO$_{\text{2}}$ thin films and its effect on the metal-to-insulator transition are investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) and ab-initio…
In this study, the role of elastic and interfacial energies in the shape evolution of T1 precipitates in Al-Cu-Li alloys is investigated using phase-field modeling. We employ a formulation considering the stoichiometric nature of the…
We present computational evidence using MD simulations of a size effect for the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) of edge dislocation motion in nickel superalloys. We model the superalloy as periodically spaced cubic $\gamma'$…
A systematic study of the compression creep properties of a single-crystalline Co-base superalloy (Co-9Al-7.5W-2Ta) was conducted at 950 {\deg}C, 975 {\deg}C and 1000 {\deg}C to reveal the influence of temperature and the resulting…
Although magnesium alloys deform extensively through shear strains and crystallographic re-orientations associated with the growth of twins, little is known about the strengthening mechanisms associated with this deformation mode. A crystal…
Recent studies on CoNi-based multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) have demonstrated high strength and ductility, attributed to the formation of stable L12 nanoscale precipitates. However, the fundamental mechanisms behind such impressive…
The effect of composition on microstructure both at the length scale of the secondary dendrite arm spacing and nano-sized dispersoids during homogenization of Al-Zn-Cu-Mg-Zr alloys has been studied. A comprehensive model that can predict…
We consider the process of precipitation in binary alloys in the presence of mechanical deformation. It is commonly observed that mechanical deformation prior to or during precipitation leads to microstructure with excess defects, which…
The diffusion-controlled growth and microstructural evolution at the interface of aluminide coatings and different substrates such as Ni-base superalloys and steel are reviewed. Quantitative diffusion analysis indicates that the diffusion…
Transition metal aluminum nitrides are a technologically important class of multifunctional ceramics, however, the HfAlN system remains largely unexplored. We investigate phase stability, nanostructure design, and mechanical behavior of…
Weak antilocalization (WAL) effect is commonly observed in 2D systems, or 3D topological insulators, topological semimetal systems. Here we report the clear sign of WAL effect in high quality Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$Sb$_2$ single crystals, in…
We apply a combinatorial approach to study the influence of Mg concentration on the precipitation kinetics in an Al-Cu-Li alloy using a diffusion couple made by linear friction welding. The precipitation kinetics is monitored in the…
An extensive diffusion analysis is presented for binary Ni-X and ternary Ni-Al-X (X = Cr, Mo, Ta, W, Re) systems, which play a crucial role in microstructural evolution and phase stability in Ni-Al-based superalloys. Specifically, we…
Ti$_{1-x-y}$Al$_{x}$Zr$_{y}$N cubic alloys within the 25-70\% Al composition range have high age-hardening capabilities due to metastable phase transition pathways at high temperatures. They are thus ideal candidates for ultra-hard…
On the base of a critical analysis of existing models for nucleation of new phase precipitates in metastable binary alloys, a new kinetic model of homogeneous nucleation and growth of alpha'-phase precipitates in Fe-Cr alloys was developed…
The current work combines the Cluster Dynamics (CD) technique and CALPHAD-based precipitation modeling to address the second phase precipitation in cold-worked (CW) 316 stainless steels (SS) under irradiation at 300-400 C. CD provides the…
