Abstract:

In this paper, the phase compositions, microstructures, atomic structures, and magnetic properties of Co-rich SmCo10 alloys prepared by arc-melting, annealing, and melt-spinning were studied. It was found that as-cast alloy is composed of Th2Zn17-type Sm2Co17 matrix with an average grain size of ∼45 μm accompanied by lamellar eutecticum (consisting of α-Co and Th2Zn17-type Sm2Co17) distributed at grain boundaries. The annealed alloy has the same phase composition and phase distribution as the as-cast alloy except that the average grain size decreases to ∼35 μm, and the eutecticum has more homo

Abstract:

Developing cost-effective magnesium alloys with high strength and good ductility is a long-standing challenge for lightweight metals. Here we present a multimodal grain structured AZ91 Mg alloy with both high strength and good ductility, prepared through a combined processing route of low-pass ECAP with short-time aging. This multimodal grain structure consisted of coarse grains and fine grains modified by heterogeneous precipitates, which resulted from incomplete dynamic recrystallization. This novel microstructure manifested in both superior high strength (tensile strength of 360 MPa) and go

Abstract:

Ni3Al is a potentially useful high temperature alloy. In its single crystal form it exhibits good ductility, however in polycrystalline form the pure alloy is highly prone to intergranular failure. It has been seen that in slightly nickel-rich alloys the addition of small amounts of boron has the effect of dramatically increasing the material ductility and of changing the failure mode from intergranular to transgranular. In alloys which have been ductilitized by boron addition, atom probe investigation has shown the boron to be segregated to grain boundaries. This segregation may induce a chan

Abstract:

Hierarchical structures of 20 nm grains embedded with twins are realized in electrodeposited Au–Cu alloys. The electrodeposition method allows refinement of the average grain size to 20 nm order, and the alloying stabilizes the nanoscale grain structure. Au–Cu alloys are face-centered cubic (FCC) metals with low stacking fault energy that favors formation of growth twins. Due to the hierarchical structure, the Hall–Petch relationship is still observed when the crystalline size (average twin space) is refined to sub 10 nm region. The yield strength reaches 1.50 GPa in an electrodeposited Au–Cu

As samarium addition was increased, α- Mg matrix morphology was changed from dendritic to equiaxed grains and average value of grain size was decreased from 101.6㎛ to 39.3㎛. Samarium addition to Mg-5Al-3Ca based alloys resulted in the formation of Mg-Al-Sm thernary intermetallic compounds at grain boundarys and α-Mg matrix grains. In these alloys, two kinds of eutectic structure were observed; coarse irregular-shape structure at grain boundary and fine needle-shape structure in the α-Mg matrix grain.

With the conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and solute solved by a macroscopic FE model and the grain structure described by a microscopic CA model, a two-way coupling between the CA and FE models is applied.

Abstract:

The quality of products made of sheet aluminum alloys strongly depends on the technological features of the sheet stamping process, as well as on the structure of sheet semi-finished products. The grain size and grain structure uniformity are among the key structural features that influence stampability. A method is proposed and the homogeneity of the grain structure is evaluated. Stampability of Al2Mg and Al6Mg aluminium alloys was evaluated based on measurements of the spring back index, minimum bending radius, stamping ratio, and Martens strain index.

Abstract:

Grain refinement is quite important for producing 7050 alloy billet especially in large scale. Low frequency electromagnetic casting (LFEC) process was used to make 7050 aluminum alloy Φ500 mm billets and study the effect of electromagnetic field on the microstructure. The sound Φ500 mm billets of 7050 alloys without any grain refiner can be successfully prepared by the LFEC process. The results show that low frequency electromagnetic field has a significant grain refining effect on 7050 alloy and can effectively eliminate feather grain structure.

Abstract:

Grain structure and macrosegregation are two important aspects to assess the quality of direct chill (DC) cast billets, and the phenomena responsible for their formation are strongly interacted. Transient modeling of grain structure and macrosegregation during DC casting is achieved with a cellular automaton (CA)–finite element (FE) model, by which the macroscopic transport is coupled with microscopic relations for grain growth. In the CAFE model, a two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric description is used for cylindrical geometry, and a Lagrangian representation is employed for both FE and CA cal

Severe plastic deformation processes (SPD) are gaining importance as advanced materials processing techniques and hold immense potential in obtaining ultra fine-grained high strength materials. Among the SPD techniques, Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) has its own merits to produce materials with ultra fine grains in bulk with better mechanical properties. The material deforms with high level of plastic strain inside the channel resulting in grain refinement of the output material with improvement in mechanical properties.

Effect of strain rate on grain refinement was studied in multidirectional forging (MDF) of a coarse-grained 7475 Al alloy at 490oC under strain rates of 3 × 10-4 s-1 and 3 × 10-2 s-1. At a strain rate of 3 × 10-4 s-1, the stress – strain ( σ - ε) behavior shows significant work softening just after yielding and a steady-state flow at higher strains. The structural changes are characterized by development of deformation bands at early stages of deformation, followed by formation of a fine grain structure in high strain in the whole material.

Abstract:

Severe plastic straining is an established method for producing submicron grain (SMG) structures in alloys. However, the development of such a fine grained structure in single-phase alloys is usually futile if they are to be exposed or processed at elevated temperatures. This is a direct consequence of the natural tendency for rapid and substantial grain coarsening which completely removes the benefits obtained by grain refinement. This problem may be avoided by the introduction of nanosized, highly stable particles in the metal matrix. In this work, a SMG structure was generated in an Al-0.3

Lower solidification temperature of the Zn-Al melt was found to further promote the formation of granular (equiaxed particle) α-Al grain in Zn-25Al alloy with the addition of Zn-6Ti master alloy.

An ECAP (equal channel angular pressing) processed UFG Al-5Cu alloy was characterized by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). It is revealed that a bimodal grain structure, i.e. ultrafine grains accompanied by micron-sized grains was developed after 4 passes. A high strength (~501 MPa) and a relatively large elongation to failure (~28%) with ~5% uniform elongation were achieved simultaneously after 4 passes of ECAP. The high strength is due to a combination of strengthening by solute, high density of dislocations and ultrafine grains. The enhancement of uniform elongation is primarily due

Abstract:

The properties of polycrystalline materials are strongly dependant upon the strength of internal boundaries. Segregation of solute to the grain boundaries can adversely affect this strength. In copper alloys, segregation of either bismuth or antimony to the grain boundary will embrittle the alloy by facilitating intergranular fracture. Very small quantities of bismuth in copper have long been known to cause severe grain boundary embrittlement of the alloy. The effect of antimony is much less pronounced and is observed primarily at lower temperatures. Even though moderate amounts of antimony ar

The implication of the CTEM observations is that the grain boundaries of the SMG structures are in a high energy state, having non-equilibrium character.
