In the present study, the effect of γ′-phase dispersed particles on both the L21(B2)-10M/14M-L10 martensitic transformations and the elastocaloric effect in aged Ni54Fe19Ga27 single crystals oriented along the [001]-direction was investig...

Pipelines have been installed and operated around the globe to transport oil and gas for decades. They are considered to be an effective, economic and safe means of transportation. The major concern in their operation is corrosion. Among the differen...

Ti-4Al-5Mo-5V-5Cr-1Nb (wt.%) is a new type of high-strength (~1300 MPa) titanium (Ti) alloy developed for aerospace applications. Until now, the research on its welding and subsequent heat treatment is barren. Herein, we employed electron beam weldin...

In current industrial practice, the finite element modeling of the metal cutting process is essential. In this paper, finite element analysis of conventional and high-speed cutting of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy is carried out. A finite element model of t...

A comprehensive understanding of the fracture behavior of high-strength steel is of great significance for its structural application. In this study, experiments were conducted to investigate the ductile fracture mechanism of high-strength steel SM57...

Properties such as superior specific strength, being imponderous, and the ability to reprocess are the key features that have drawn attention to magnesium. In the last few years, applications such as automotive, aerospace, and medical applications ha...

Aluminum foam sandwich panels are excellent structure–function integrated materials. With high specific strength, cushioning energy absorption and sound absorption of aluminum foam material, they overcome the disadvantage of the low strength of...

Structural characteristics and design requirements for the integration of the integral rotor and disc shaft of the engine, the welding quality, and mechanical properties of superalloy weldments have received more and more attention in recent years. I...

Bacterial infection and stress shielding are important issues in orthopedic implants. In this study, Ag element was selected as an antibacterial agent to develop an antibacterial Ti-40Nb-10Ag alloy by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The microstructure,...

There are two sources of quantitative data on grain boundary segregation: careful experimental results and calculated data. These values can be compared in various ways. Here we show a comparison of average concentrations of silicon, vanadium, and ti...
