Ion-Nitriding Of Maraging Steel (MDN 250A Grade) For Light Combat Aircraft Applications
(2009-05-12)
Maraging steels have got high strength and good toughness. Maraging steel MDN 250A grade is used for slat tracks on the leading edge of the wing of Light Combat Aircraft (LCA). This application requires high strength and ...
First-Principles Studies of Point Defects and Phase Transformations in Materials
(2018-01-18)
The functional and mechanical properties of a material are often determined by the defects in them. A thorough understanding of the relationship between the defects and the properties allows for tailoring a material’s ...
Some Processing and Mechanical Behavior Related Issues in Ti-Ni Based Shape Memory Alloys
(2017-11-30)
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) exhibit unique combination of structural and functional properties and hence have a variety of current and potential applications. The mechanical behaviour of SMAs, in particular the influence ...
Effect of Li Addition on the Plasticity of AZ31 Mg-Alloy
(2017-11-14)
Mg-alloys, despite being the lightest structural metallic materials, find limited applications due to their poor workability, which is due to the hcp structure that does not provide sufficient number of independent slip ...
Destabilisation and Failure of Cylindrical Nanopores : A Phase Field Study
(2017-11-28)
Phase field models have played an important role in shaping our understanding of a variety of micro structural phenomena in materials. Their attractive features include (a) their ability to capture instabilities in ...
Reactive Hot Pressing Of ZrB2-Based Ultra High Temperature Ceramic Composites
(2010-10-08)
Zirconium- and titanium- based compounds (borides, carbides and nitrides) are of importance because of their attractive properties including: high melting temperature, high-temperature strength, high hardness, high elastic ...
Tensile And Low Cycle Fatigue Behavior Of A Ni-Base Superalloy
(2009-12-14)
Background and Objective: Nickel-base superalloys, strengthened by a high volume fraction of Ni3Al precipitates, have been the undisputed choice for turbine discs in gas turbines as they exhibit the best available combination ...
Grain Boundary Processes In High Temperature Densification And Deformation Of Nanocrystalline Zirconia
(2011-02-08)
Grain boundary processes play a major role in controlling different rate processes in yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia. The present study concentrated on rate processes in tetragonal zirconia, which were significantly ...
First Principles Study Of Structure And Stacking Fault Energies In Some Metallic Systems
(2010-08-05)
Plastic deformation in crystalline materials largely depends on the properties of dislocations, in particular their mobility. While continuum description of deformation of a crystalline metal can be made reasonably well ...
Study Of Evaluation Of Texture And Microstructure During Different Modes Of Rolling And Annealing Of Two Phase α-β Brass
(2010-09-28)
It is well known that texture and microstructure play a crucial role in determining properties of metallic materials. The evolution of microstructure and texture during deformation and annealing of copper and some copper ...
