There are several facets of aluminum when it comes to sustainability. While it helps to save
fuel due to its low density, producing it from ores is very energy-intensive. Recycling it shifts …

Additive manufacturing (AM) of metallic alloys for structural and functional applications has
attracted significant interest in the last two decades as it brings a step change in the …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are multi-component systems based on novel alloy composition
designs with entropy maximization. They feature an array of unique mechanical properties …

Understanding the composition evolution of grain boundaries and grain boundary
precipitation at near-atomic scale in aluminum alloys is crucial to tailor mechanical …

To uncover the effects of segregation and precipitation on grain refinement of metals under
severe plastic deformation, high-pressure-torsion (HPT) processing is performed on three …

Abstract The aluminum-zirconium (Al-Zr) alloys are of interest because of their superior
thermal stability and good electrical conuctivity, but their main drawback is their rather low …

To gain insight into the origin of the ultra-high strength of ultrafine-grained (UFG) alloys, the
solute clustering, precipitation phenomena, and microstructural evolutions were studied in …
