Mechanical alloying (MA) has been used to fabricate the Co2FeAl Heusler alloy with a nanocrystalline structure. The formation mechanism of the alloy has been investigated. Rietveld analysis showed that all samples that were milled for more…
In this paper we investigate, both analytically and numerically, the emergence of a kinetic glass transition in two different model systems: a uniformly heated granular gas and a molecular fluid with nonlinear drag. Despite the profound…
We have studied the effect of Fe addition on the structural and magnetic transitions in the magnetic shape memory alloy Ni-Mn-Ga by substituting systematically each atomic species by Fe. Calorimetric and AC susceptibility measurements have…
Melting kinetics of polycrystalline materials is analyzed on the basis of a new model which explicitly couples homogeneous and heterogeneous melting mechanisms. The distinct feature of this approach lies in its ability to evaluate not only…
Additive manufacturing (AM) offers an unprecedented opportunity for the quick production of complex shaped parts directly from a powder precursor. But its application to functional materials in general and magnetic materials in particular…
In this work we report on kinetic Monte-Carlo calculations of resistive switching and the underlying growth dynamics of filaments in an electrochemical metallization device consisting of an Ag/TiO2/Pt sandwich-like thin film system. The…
The molecular motor protein kinesin plays a key role in fundamental cellular processes such as intracellular transport, mitotic spindle formation, and cytokinesis, with important implications for neurodegenerative and cancer disease…
Exploiting Landau's theory of phase transformations, defining an original order parameter and using the phenomenological transformation temperatures, it is reported that it is possible to describe in a global approach the conditions for the…
The temperature dependence of mechanical properties of steel nanowires with varying carbon content was studied using molecular dynamics simulations. Four interatomic potentials were assessed, with the Modified Embedded Atom Method (MEAM)…
We present a kinetic model for solid state phase transformation (alpha<-->beta) of common zirconium alloys used as fuel cladding material in light water reactors. The model computes the relative amounts of beta or alpha phase fraction as a…
We review a series of works where the fundamental master equation is used to develop a microscopical description of evolution of non-equilibrium atomic distributions in alloys. We describe exact equations for temporal evolution of local…
A machine-learned interatomic potential for Ge-rich Ge$_x$Te alloys has been developed aiming at uncovering the kinetics of phase separation and crystallization in these materials. The results are of interest for the operation of embedded…
A Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) model was created to simulate the insertion of transmutation He atoms into nanostructured ferritic alloys (NFAs) under neutron irradiation. Interstitial He atoms migrate through the NFA until becoming trapped in…
The early stage of the reactive interdiffusion in the Cu-Al system was investigated at 350 {\textdegree}C and 300 {\textdegree}C thanks to in-situ transmission electron microscopy. A special care was given to find conditions where the…
The growth rates and chemical ordering of ferroelectric alloys are studied with kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations using an electrostatic model with long-range Coulomb interactions, as a function of temperature, chemical composition, and…
We propose a modification of the embedded-atom method-type potential aiming at reconciling simulated melting and ground-state properties of metals by means of classical molecular dynamics. Considering titanium, magnesium, gold, and platinum…
Theoretical analysis and experimental results on the combustion in the Ni-Al layered system are presented. Combustion wave temperature and velocity were measured and microstructural and compositional determinations were made. The latter…
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…
The Fe-Cu system has attracted much attention over the last several decades due to its technological importance as a model alloy for Cu steels. In spite of these efforts several aspects of its phase diagram remain unexplained. Here we use…
Sintering is a pivotal technology for processing ceramic and metallic powders into solid objects. A profound understanding of microstructure evolution during sintering is essential for manufacturing products with tailored properties. While…
