Cr-based composite coatings with superior wear resistance are in growing demand for high-performance applications in the automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing sectors. In this study, an Al10Cu alloy produced via powder metallurgy was coate...
Machine learning (ML) is becoming an established part of alloy research, offering new ways to link composition, processing routes, and microstructure with measured properties. In this work, recent studies using ML for predicting or optimizing alloy b...
Damage is a phenomenon experienced when a material is subjected to external factors such as load and temperature. Damage is quantified through the damage value of a material, and its value typically ranges from 0 to 1, with 1 indicating complete dama...
In metal additive manufacturing, the molten pool directly influences the performance of the fabricated components. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the molten pool behavior is essential for improving the quality of the parts and mitigating...
This study provides the first complete and experimentally validated Yoshida–Uemori (Y–U) parameter set for AA6005C aluminum alloy, enabling accurate constitutive modeling for stamping simulations. A comprehensive set of mechanical tests w...
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present a vast compositional design space, characterized by four core effects—high configurational entropy, sluggish diffusion, severe lattice distortion, and the cocktail effect—which collectively underpin thei...
Friction extrusion technology was first developed and patented in 1991 at The Welding Institute, but it remained largely unexplored for many years. Over the past decade, this technology has gained popularity due to its ability to recycle chips and pr...
Intermetallic alloys based on A15-type compounds, including cubic Ti3Sb, attract increasing interest due to their tunable electronic properties and potential for surface-related functional applications. Here, the interaction of nitrogen with Ti3Sb is...
