We study the thermally activated, slow conversion of the hysteretically retained $\omega$ phase into stable $\alpha$ phase in recovered samples of shocked zirconium. The $\omega$-phase decays in time following an algebraic law, unlike the…
In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann model is proposed to simulate solid-liquid phase change phenomena in multiphase systems. The model couples the thermal properties of the solidification front with the dynamics of the liquid droplet…
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…
We investigate quantum phase transitions in the extended periodic Anderson model, which includes electron correlations within and between itinerant and localized bands. We calculate zero and finite temperature properties of the system using…
The structure of solid oxygen has been studied at pressures from 50 to 140~GPa using static structure search methods and molecular dynamics simulations with density functional theory and a hybrid exchange functional. Several crystalline…
In a previous work a model was proposed for the phase transitions of crystals with localized magnetic moments which at low temperature have a "conical" arrangement that at higher T transforms into a more symmetrical structure (depending on…
The two-dimensional organic conductor $\alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ undergoes a metal-insulator transition at $T_{\rm CO}=135$ K due to electronic charge ordering. We have conducted time-resolved investigations of its electronic properties…
We provide a complete description of the low temperature wetting transition for the two dimensional Solid-On-Solid model. More precisely we study the integer-valued field $(\phi(x))_{x\in \mathbb Z^2}$, associated associated to the energy…
The high-pressure behaviour of PbS was investigated by angular dispersive X-ray powder diffraction up to pressures of 6.8 GPa. Experiments were accompanied by first principles calculations at the density functional theory level. By…
Solid atomic hydrogen is one of the simplest systems to undergo a metal-insulator transition. Near the transition, the electronic degrees of freedom become strongly correlated and their description provides a difficult challenge for…
We here show by first principles theory that it is possible to achieve a structural and magnetic phase transition in common steel alloys like Fe$_{85}$Cr$_{15}$, by alloying with Ni or Mn. The predicted phase transition is from the…
We have performed an experimental study on the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity $\rho$($T$) and heat capacity $C$($T$) of the Mo$_{1-x}$Re$_x$ $(x = 0.20, 0.25)$ alloy superconductors in different magnetic fields. In the…
A computational model is developed to assist the design of the first hybrid rocket engine of the McGill Rocket Team, using liquid nitrous oxide as an oxidizer and solid paraffin wax as a fuel. The model is developed in three phases: In the…
This article presents a phenomenological dynamic phase transition theory -- modeling and analysis -- for superfluids. As we know, although the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model has been successfully used in superconductivity, and the…
Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. However, zirconium has strong affinity for hydrogen which leads to hydrogen…
Electron assisted neutron exchange process in solid state environment is investigated. It is shown that if a metal is irradiated with free electrons then the $e+$ $_{Z}^{A_{1}}X+$ $_{Z}^{A_{2}}X\rightarrow e^{\prime }+$ $%_{Z}^{A_{1}-1}X+$…
For a previously published study of the titanium hcp (alpha) to omega (omega) transformation, a tight-binding model was developed for titanium that accurately reproduces the structural energies and electron eigenvalues from all-electron…
The ground state equilibrium properties of copper-gold alloys have been explored with the state of art random phase approximation (RPA). Our estimated lattice constants agree with the experiment within a mean absolute percentage error…
In this work we developed a practical and general modeling approach for thermal conductivity of metals and metal alloys that integrates ab initio and semiempirical physics-based models to maximize the strengths of both techniques. The…
In this work, Ni50Al50 alloy is taken into consideration as potential brazing material for joining ZrB2 ultra-high temperature ceramic. The results of experimental study on high temperature interfacial phenomena between molten binary…
