A Multiscale Study of the Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Vacancy–grain-boundary Interactions
Grain boundaries (GBs) influence many physical and mechanical properties of crystalline materials. This is primarily because of their interactions with other kinds of defects, such as point and line defects. Such interactions ...
Effect of High Pressure Torsion Processing on Precipitate Containing Alloys
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes yield excellent grain refinement in metallic materials by application of very large shear strains while retaining the initial sample dimensions. Its effects on simultaneously ...
Synergistic Effect of Electromagnetic Forces on the Failure of Pre-Cracked Thin Metallic Conductors
Finite element method (FEM) simulations were performed, and
distributions of current density, electromagnetic force, and stress fields due to the self induced electromagnetic forces were evaluated in a pre-cracked thin ...
Comprehensive Investigation of the Mechanical Behavior of Nial-x (X=pt, Pd) Alloys: Effect of Composition, Orientation and Temperature
Gas turbine engines in the turbine section operate at temperatures exceeding 1300°C, which can cause high-temperature oxidation and reduce the lifespan of turbine blades. To counter this, thermal barrier coating (TBC) ...
Multifunctional hydrogels with injectable, self-healing, and shape-morphing capabilities for biomedical applications
In recent years, there has been a notable surge in interest surrounding implantable biomaterials due to their potential applications in treating physical defects and traumas. Hydrogels have garnered growing attention among ...
Investigations of Sensors Based on New Molecular Architectonics: Synthesis, Fabrication and Application
Rapid industrialization and expansion of urban landscapes in large cities generate maximum
polluting ingredients to the surrounding environment. While organic contaminants are
naturally occurring, the increase in human ...
Effect of Electric Current Pulses on Pre-cracked Thin Metallic Conductors: From Crack Propagation to Healing of Cracks
Both scientifically and technologically, it is important to investigate the effects of electric current on the structural integrity of metallic components. As an electric current reverses its direction across a crack, ...
Smart textiles with Tuneable Architectures for Multifunctional Applications
Innovations in electronics and the rapid developments in communication systems have been unprecedented and made life easier. One such advancement is wireless electronics, where gadgets operate in gigahertz frequencies – ...
Enhancement in corrosion resistance of selected high entropy alloys by incorporation of carbon nanotubes
High entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted considerable interest due to their remarkable structural and functional properties. HEAs generally contain 5–13 principal elements with the concentrations of each component lying ...
Novel L12 precipitate hardened Co-base alloys
Conventional cobalt base superalloys relied on solid-solution and carbide precipitate based strengthening. They lacked high temperature (more than 800 ˚C) creep strength as compared to Ni-base superalloys which are ...
