Computational models are used here for simulating diffusion-controlled redistribution of hydrogen that is picked up by zirconium-base nuclear fuel cladding during light water reactor operation. Axial localization of hydrogen, leading to…
As titanium is a highly utilized metal for structural light-weighting, its phases, transformation pathways (transition states), and structures have scientific and industrial importance. Impurities, pressure, and temperature control the…
This work investigates the solid-state reaction between iridium and zirconium carbide, resulting in the formation of carbon and $\mathrm{ZrIr}_{3}$ -- an intermetallic compound of great interest for modern high-temperature materials…
Following the Fukushima Daiichi disaster, an increasing number of studies concentrate on the development of Accident Tolerant Fuel (ATF) cladding materials for nuclear fuel, aiming to prevent the oxidation of zirconium during incidents such…
Engineering alloys generally exhibit multi-phase microstructures. For simulating their microstructure evolution during solid-state phase transformation, CALPHAD-guided multi-phase-field models coupled with micro-mechanics have proven to be…
In this study Mo-Nb-Ta-W refractory high-entropy alloys (R-HEAs) have been studied for their phase stability for a wide temperature range (100 K to 2000 K). The equilibrium thermodynamic phases are determined by the changes in enthalpy and…
We report on the depth dependence and technological limits of the phase transition of the iron rhodium alloy as function of temperature, external magnetic and electric fields in the FeRh/BaTiO3 multiferroic, determined by grazing-incidence…
A random distribution of inert sites is introduced in the Ziff-Gulari-Barshad model to study the phase transitions between active and poisoned states. The adsorption of ${\rm CO}$ and ${\rm O_2}$ molecules is not possible at the position of…
The shear ($\eta$) and bulk ($\zeta$) viscosities are calculated in a quasiparticle relaxation time approximation. The hadron phase is described within the relativistic mean field based model with scaled hadron masses and couplings. The…
Electrochemical water electrolysis, which produces clean energy carriers to mitigate carbon emissions, lacks suitable, low-cost electrodes for efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline water splitting. To address this challenge,…
We study a model for an argon-like fluid parameterised in terms of a hard-core repulsion and a two-Yukawa potential. The liquid-gas phase behaviour of the model is obtained from the thermodynamically self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike…
A simplified polycrystalline model (the so-called RL model) is proposed to simulate the anisotropic viscoplastic behavior of metallic materials. A generic method is presented that makes it possible to build a simplified anisotropic material…
The Langer-Schwartz equations for precipitation are formulated to calculate nucleation, growth and coarsening of second phase precipitates under non-isothermal situations. A field-theoretic steady-state nucleation rate model is used in the…
An analysis is performed of the liquid-gas phase transition of nuclear matter obtained from different versions of scalar derivate coupling suggested by Zimanyi and Moszkowski (ZM) and the results are compared with those obtained from the…
Few compounds feature ice-shaping properties. The only compound reported to have ice-shaping properties similar to that of ice-shaping proteins, encountered in many organisms living at low temperature, is Zirconium Acetate. When a Zirconium…
Often a number of precipitation processes in steels and alloys occur simultaneously (they have the same origin in time) albeit at different rates. Consequently, isothermic transformations are accompanied, in this case, by the occurrence of…
Directional solidification of water-based solutions has emerged as a versatile technique for templating hierarchical porous materials. However, the underlying mechanisms of pattern formation remain incompletely understood. In this work, we…
Hydride precipitation in zirconium cladding materials can damage their integrity and durability.Service temperature and material defects have a significant effect on the dynamic growth of hydrides. In this study, we have developed a phase…
There has been renewed interest in the frequency dependent specific heat of supercooled liquids in recent years with computer simulation studies exploring the whole frequency range of relaxation. The simulation studies can thus supplement…
A detailed high pressure investigation is carried out using x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and low temperature resistivity measurements on hexagonal ZrSe$_{2}$ having an excess of 3 at.\% Zr. Structural studies show that the sample…
