Due to the preferential oxidation of Cr in various corrosion-resistant alloys, Cr-depletion
extensively forms around the oxides and impairs passivation ability. This harmful effect has …

The effect of different inclusion types, inclusion radius, and strain rates (STRs) on the
mechanical property, deformation behaviors, energy absorption, and failure mechanisms of …

Over the past two decades, means allowing to probe experimentally the mechanical
behavior of materials specimens only a few micrometers or less in diameter have multiplied …

We address the effect of elastic inhomogeneity on elastic modulus and hardness
determinations made by depth-sensing indentations performed on individual particles …

This study reports on a single-track laser surface alloying process that utilizes SiO 2 powder
to disperse both SiO 2 particles and oxide inclusions in 316L stainless steel for oxide …

The strength of the interface between iron (Fe) and individual spherical silica (SiO 2)
inclusions of 5±1 µm diameter is measured by means of in-situ micro-cantilever bending …

The challenge associated with depositing high-strength steel using the arc deposition
method lies in the propensity for hardened microstructures to form during the deposition …
