Lightweight refractory high-entropy alloy coatings (RHEAcs) of NbxMo$_{0.5}$Ti$_{1.5}$Ta$_{0.2}$Cr (where $x=$ 1, 1.3, 1.5, and 2) were fabricated on the surface of 316L stainless steel using laser cladding (LC) technology. A comprehensive…
Tungsten is considered as one of the most promising materials for nuclear fusion reactor chamber applications. Wire + Arc Additive Manufacturing has already demonstrated the ability to deposit defect-free large-scale tungsten structures,…
Structural properties of Mild Steel have been modified by embedding Carbon Nanotubes in its matrix. The embedment was done by forming a composite at the surface of MS with the help of a thermionic electron beam source at an acceleration…
Effective post-heat treatment is critical to achieve desired microstructure for high-performance in additively manufactured (AM) components. In this work, the influence of homogenization on microstructure-property relationship in 17-4PH…
In situ neutron diffraction of the uniaxial tension test was used to study the effect of the surrounding matrix microstructure on the mechanical stability of retained austenite in high-carbon bearing steels. Comparing the samples with…
Alnico is a prime example of a finely tuned nanostructure whose magnetic properties are intimately connected to magnetic annealing (MA) during spinodal transformation and subsequent lower temperature annealing (draw) cycles. Using a…
Al-Mg-Si alloys are utilized in large scale electrical conduction applications thanks to their low density, high strength, and low electrical resistivity. The alloying elements, Mg and Si, are introduced to improve the mechanical strength;…
Iron mono-arsenide in the powder form has been investigated by transmission 57Fe Moessbauer spectroscopy in the temperature range 4.2 - 1000 K. Additional spectra have been obtained at 20 K and 100 K applying external magnetic field of 7 T.…
When a crystalline solid such as iron is cooled across a structural transition, its final microstructure depends sensitively on the cooling rate. For instance, an adiabatic cooling across the transition results in an equilibrium `ferrite',…
The changes of magnetic properties upon heat treatment of a metastable supersaturated solid solution processed by severe plastic deformation are investigated by in-situ AC-hysteresis measurements. Data are analyzed in the framework of…
The mechanical performance of metallic metamaterials with 3-dimensional solid frames is typically a combination of the geometrical effect ("architecture") and the characteristic size effects of the base material ("microstructure"). In this…
Cu-Sn-Zn coatings have been widely used in industry for their unique properties, such as good conductivity, high corrosion resistance and excellent solderability. To further improve the mechanical performance of Cu-Sn-Zn coatings,…
