The search for effective methods to fabricate bulk single-phase quasicrystalline Al-Cu-Fe alloys is currently an important task. Crucial to solving this problem is to understand mechanisms of phase formation in this system. Here we study…
Icosahedral quasicrystals spontaneously form from the melt in simulations of Al--Cu--Fe alloys. We model the interatomic interactions using oscillating pair potentials tuned to the specific alloy system based on a database of density…
First-principle based molecular-dynamics simulations have been performed for binary Cu$_x$Ti$_{1-x}$ (x = 0.31, 0.50, and 0.76) alloys to investigate the relationship between local structure and dynamical properties in the liquid and…
Selective laser melting (SLM) is rapidly evolving to become a mainstream technology. However, the fundamental mechanisms of solidification and microstructure development inherent to the non-equilibrium conditions of this additive…
In the Al-Co-Cu alloy system, both the decagonal quasicrystal with the space group of $P\overline{10}m2$ and its approximant Al$_{13}$Co$_4$ phase with monoclinic $Cm$ symmetry are present around 20 at.% Co-10 at.% Cu. In this study, we…
We investigate short rane order in liquid and supercooled liquid Fe and Fe-based metallic glass using ab-initio simulation methods. We analyze the data to quantify the degree of local icosahedral and polytetrahedral order and to understand…
Development of reliable interatomic potentials is crucial for theoretical studies of relationship between chemical composition, structure and observable properties in glass-forming metallic alloys. Due to ambiguity of potential…
Differential thermal analysis has been conducted for the Al-Cu-Co alloys with the composition range of 15 at.% Co and 10 to 30 at.% Cu, and 25 at.% Co and 2.5 to 20 at.% Co. The features of the formation of solid phases have been studied…
The occurrence of stable decagonal quasicrystalline phase in Al-Co-Ni and Al-Cu-Co alloys through conventional solidification is well established. Earlier, we have studied the effect of Cu substitution in place of Co in the Al70 Co15Ni15…
The observation recently of 12-fold quasicrystals in polymers, nanoparticle mixture and 12-fold and 18-fold quasicrystals in colloidal solutions are important events for the study of quasicrystals. To describe the mechanical behaviour we…
Short-range order (SRO) in Fe-rich Fe-Cr alloys is investigated by means of atomistic off-lattice Monte Carlo simulations in the semi-grand canonical ensemble using classical interatomic potentials. The SRO parameter defined by Cowley…
The influence of Fe content on the three-dimensional (3D) morphology of Fe-rich intermetallic phases (Fe phases), Al2Cu, and pores and mechanical properties of cast Al-5.0Cu-0.6Mn alloys with 0.5 and 1.0 wt. % Fe are characterized using…
Fast-cooling after sintering or annealing of BiFeO3-BaTiO3 mixed oxide ceramics yields core-shell structures that give excellent functional properties, but their precise phase assemblage and nanostructure remains an open question. By…
Starting from the Zn17Sc3 cubic approximant, new quasicrystal alloys were searched by replacement of Zn with transition elements, T. In the cases of T=Mn, Fe, Co and Ni, new icosahedral quasicrystals are formed in as-cast alloys as major…
Recent research in multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) has increasingly focused on the exploration and exploitation of short-range order (SRO) to enhance material performance. However, the understanding of SRO formation and the precise…
Quasicrystals can be considered, from the point of view of their electronic properties, as being intermediate between metals and insulators. For example, experiments show that quasicrystalline alloys such as AlCuFe or AlPdMn have…
Amorphous samples of Al-Cu-Fe were crystallized to the icosahedral phase under the control of electrical conductivity and thermopower at a rather small temperature of T=720 K. A comparison between different annealing states of the amorphous…
The temperature evolution of icosahedral medium-range order formed by interpenetrating icosahedra in CuZr metallic glass-forming liquids was investigated via molecular dynamics simulations. Scaling analysis based on percolation theory was…
We investigate quasicrystal-forming soft matter using a two-scale phase field crystal model. At state points near thermodynamic coexistence between bulk quasicrystals and the liquid phase, we find multiple metastable spatially localized…
Aluminium alloy AA7075 (Al-Zn-Mg-Cu) specimens were prepared using selective laser melting, also known as powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. In the as-manufactured state, which represents a locally rapidly solidified condition, the…
