Al-Mg alloys spontaneously infiltrate into porous ceramic preform in a nitrogenous atmosphere above 750 °C with Mg either pre-alloyed or introduced at the interface to initiate the process. The governing process variables ...

In some applications the stress across the entire cross-section of a component is not uniform but varies with position. For example, maximum shear stress is highest at the inner surface of a thick-walled cylinder subjected ...

Mg-based alloys form a variety of interesting structures including stable and metastable crystalline, stable and metastable quasicrystalline, nanocrystalline and amorphous phases. Many of these phases can be made to coexist ...
