Hydrogen atoms absorbed by metals in the hydrogen-containing environments can lead to the premature fracture of the metal components used in load-bearing conditions. Since metals used in practice are mostly polycrystalline, grain boundaries…
Recent experiments demonstrated robust ferroelectricity in Mg-doped ZnO (ZMO) of the wurtzite structure, hinting at a promising strategy to substantially expand the list of ferroelectrics by doping conventional piezoelectrics. We…
Spinel ferrites in general show a rich interplay of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties. Here, we particularly focus on zinc ferrite (ZFO), which has been observed experimentally to crystallise in the cubic $normal$ spinel…
We study the lattice dynamics of iron superconductor FeSe, and address the fundamental question of how important is proper description of fluctuating magnetic moments in metallic systems for phonon dispersion and phonon density of states.…
Grain boundary wetting as a preliminary stage for zinc induced grain boundary weakening and embrittlement in a Zn coated press hardened 20MnB8 steel was analyzed by means of electron backscatter diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy,…
Based on ab-initio simulations, we report on the nature of principally different mechanisms for interaction of Mg and Zn atoms with grain boundaries in Al alloys leading to different morphology of segregation. The Mg atoms segregate in…
The magnetic and electronic structures of $3d$ impurity atoms from Sc to Zn in ferromagnetic body-centered cubic iron are investigated using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method based on the generalized…
In this work, we perform first principles DFT calculations to investigate the interplay between magnetic and structural properties in Ni2MnGa. We demonstrate that the relative stability of austenite (cubic) and non-modulated martensite…
The density functional theory (DFT) is used to investigate the mechanical properties of pure, fully hydrogenated, semi-hydrogenated, fully fluorinated, and semi-fluorinated germanene sheets, including Young's and bulk moduli, and plastic…
Effectiveness of galaxite (Al2O3MnO) and manganese oxide (MnO2) in nucleating acicular ferrite was demonstrated in a steel with composition of Fe-13.92Mn-4.53Al-1.28Si-0.11C. The hot rolled and quenched steel had a duplex microstructure of…
The alloying elements introduced into carbon steel to enhance its mechanical properties also diffuse into cementite (Fe$_3$C) particles, modifying their characteristics and thereby influencing the overall performance of the steel. This…
An in-depth analysis of Zn/Al doped nickel ferrites grown by reactive magnetron sputtering is relevant due to their promising characteristics for applications in spintronics. The material is insulating and ferromagnetic at room temperature…
A grand challenge in materials research is identifying the relationship between composition and performance. Herein, we explore this relationship for magnetic properties, specifically magnetic saturation (M$_s$) and magnetic anisotropy…
A comparative study of wurtzite ZnO doped by rare earth elements (Tm, Yb, Ce) have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) based on the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave orbital (FP-LAPW) method, as implemented…
Magnetic 2D materials have achieved significantly consideration owing to their encouraging applications. A variation of these 2D materials by occurrence of defects, by the transition-metal doping or adsorption or by the surface…
Two ingots weighing 400 g and 5 kg with nominal compositions of Fe-8Mn-4Al-2Si-0.5C-0.07V-0.05Sn were produced to investigate the effect of processing variables on microstructure development. The larger casting has a cooling rate more…
The development of quantitative models for radiation damage effects in iron, iron alloys and steels, particularly for the high temperature properties of the alloys, requires understanding of magnetic interactions, which control the phase…
Due to the resource criticality of rare-earths (RE), an alternative to the well-known Nd$_2$Fe$_{14}$B magnets with a lower amount of critical elements is required. In this work, density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate…
We perform density functional calculations to investigate the structure of the inter-metallic alloy FeRh under epitaxial strain. Bulk FeRh exhibits a metamagnetic transition from a low-temperature antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase to a…
Solute segregation in alloys is a key phenomenon which affects various material characteristics such as embrittlement, grain growth and precipitation kinetics. In this work, the segregation energies of Y, Zr, and Nb to a \textgreek{S}5…
