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…
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…
The effect of adding 2 at.% W to a model Ni-Al-Cr superalloy on the morphological evolution, spatial correlations and temporal evolution of g'(L12)-precipitates at 1073 K is studied with scanning electron microscopy and atomic force…
Increasing attention is being paid to $\alpha$$_2$ Ti$_3$(Al,Sn) precipitation from the $\alpha$ phase of titanium alloys owing to its effect on slip band formation, localisation and the implications for fatigue performance in jet engine…
The mechanical behavior of two nanocrystalline Al alloys, Al-Mg-Y and Al-Fe-Y, is investigated with in-situ micropillar compression testing. Both alloys were strengthened by a hierarchical microstructure including grain boundary…
Combined effect of Carbon and Nitrogen levels and isothermal holding temperature on the microstructure, precipitation and the tensile properties of Vanadium microalloyed steels with 0.05 weight percent Vanadium were studied. Two different…
Metallic glasses have mechanical properties, which exhibit avalanches in the disguise of stress drops. We study these phenomena in a classical metallic glass system CuZrAl by athermal quasistatic shear and varying the element concentrations…
Dislocations govern the properties of any crystals. Yet, how dislocation of pentagonheptagon (5|7) in grain boundaries (GBs) affects the mechanical properties of two-dimensional MoS2 crystals remains poorly known. Using atomistic…
The creep behaviour of a creep-resistant AE42 magnesium alloy reinforced with Saffil short fibres and SiC particulates in various combinations has been examined in the longitudinal direction, i.e., the plane containing random fibre…
Atomistic simulations, based either on an empirical interatomic potential or on ab initio calculations, are used to study the pyramidal glide of a 1/3 <1-210> screw dislocation in hexagonal close-packed zirconium. Generalized stacking fault…
Sapphire and rubies (undoped and Cr-doped $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ single crystals) have been deformed in compression at temperatures lower than those previously used in studies of dislocations in the basal slip plane (see part I). Above…
Zinc alloys are recognised for their excellent biocompatibility and favourable corrosion rates, making them suitable for bioabsorbable implants. However, their mechanical properties necessitate improvement to fulfil the rigorous…
The properties of polycrystalline wurtzite Zn_{1-x}Mg_{x}O (0 <= x <= 0.15) have been studied, by powder X-ray diffraction, including an analysis of the X-ray line-broadening, and by luminescence, absorption, and Raman spectroscopies. We…
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys offer great potential for reducing vehicular mass and energy consumption due to their inherently low densities. Historically, widespread applicability has been limited by low strength properties compared to…
A detailed study has been carried out on $\gamma^\prime$ (AlAg$_2$) precipitates in Al-Ag and Al-Ag-Cu alloys to reconcile the conflicting reports on chemical ordering and stacking faults in this phase. High angle annular dark field…
The composition and site occupancy of Mg within ordered {\delta} precipitates in a model Al Mg Li alloy have been characterized by atom probe microscopy and first-principles simulations. The concentration in the precipitates is found to be…
In pursue of a systematic characterization of rare-earth vanadates under compression, in this work we present a multifaceted study of the phase behavior of zircon-type orthovanadate PrVO$_4$ under high pressure conditions, up until 24 GPa.…
The fascinating multiple magnetic states observed in the Ni-Mn-Sn based metamagnetic shape memory alloy are addressed through a combined muon spin relaxation (muSR) and neutron powder diffraction studies. The material used in the present…
Diamond single crystals showing Infra-red features of pressurized CO2-I phase were studied using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and tomography. Numerous O-containing precipitates with sizes up to 45 nm are observed. The absolute…
The deformation and fatigue crack nucleation mechanisms were studied by means of slip trace analysis and secondary electron microscopy in a textured AZ31B-O Mg alloy subjected to fully-reversed cyclic deformation at two different cyclic…
