Co–Al and Co–V–Al intermetallics produced by centrifugal self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) were used as precursors for preparation of catalysts for deep oxidation and hydrogenation of CO2. Leaching in NaOH solution a...

Transition metal based high entropy alloys (HEAs) are often used in electrocatalytic (water electrolysis) applications due to the synergistic effect operating among its constituent elements and unpaired electrons in d orbitals of the concerned metal....

Energy consumption in the industrial sector can be significantly reduced by improving heat transfer rates in heat exchanger circuits, pool boiling, metal cutting industries, etc. Numerous energy-related issues can be overcome to a large extent by imp...

In this paper, glass-ceramics were prepared from secondary nickel slag by the melting method. The effects of Fe2O3 on the crystallization behavior of glass-ceramics were investigated by differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, and scanning e...

Numerous factors, including variable grain structures and different inherent defects, impact the mechanical behavior of Ti6Al4V parts fabricated using metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes. This study focuses on an in-depth analysis of how diff...

The cleanness of steel has always been a big problem for secondary refining. In this work, a new method, which is coupled with slot and porous plugs, is proposed to improve the cleanness in steel. Water experiments and numerical simulations were perf...

Measuring the compressive behaviour of sheet materials is an important process for understanding the material behaviour and numerical simulation of metal forming. The application of side force on both surfaces of a specimen in the thickness direction...

Entrapped double oxide film defects are known to be the most detrimental defects during the casting of aluminium alloys. In addition, hydrogen dissolved in the aluminium melt was suggested to pass into the defects to expand them and cause hydrogen po...

Exploiting grain boundary engineering in the design of alloys for extreme environments provides a promising pathway for enhancing performance relative to coarse-grained counterparts. Due to its attractive properties as a plasma facing material for fu...

Friction-spinning as an innovative incremental forming process enables high degrees of deformation in the field of tube and sheet metal forming due to self-induced heat generation in the forming area. The complex thermomechanical conditions generate...
