With the ability to produce components with complex and precise structures, additive
manufacturing or 3D printing techniques are now widely applied in both industry and …

Laser powder deposition (LPD), as one of the most widely used additive manufacturing
methods for metals, is an important rapid prototype manufacturing and repairing method for …

Depletion of solutes on particle-Al interfaces in particulates reinforced precipitate-hardening
Al composites was harmful to strength. A two-step strategy including bimodal structure …

Surface engineering is an effective method to extend the lifespan of carbon steels submitted
to severe wear degradation. In this work, the surface of a low carbon steel (AISI 1020) was …

In this work, a powder metallurgy-thermomechanical method was proposed to fabricate
bimodal composites with the forward design of coarse grain fractions. By optimizing …

The microstructure and microsegregation of atomized powder, which depend on their sizes,
are of great importance to the mechanical properties of the consolidated bulk materials …

We simulate the gas-atomization process of a close-coupled annular nozzle for vacuum
induction gas atomization at a three-dimensional scale. Moreover, the relationship between …

Powder of an experimental Nickel base superalloy produced through Inert Gas Atomization
technique is characterized for its physical properties, chemical composition, morphology …

In the present work, spark plasma sintering experiments were conducted on the atomized Al-
Zn-Mg-Cu alloy powders and TiB 2/Al-Zn-Mg-Cu composite powders under different …

Equiaxed solidification contributes to the ridging defect resistance of ferritic stainless steel. Ti
2 O 3 accelerating TiN formation to nucleate δ-ferrite was recently recognized as an effective …
