In all of metallurgical processing, probably the most prominent example of nucleation control
is the “inoculation” of melts to suppress columnar solidification and to obtain fine equiaxed …

It was discovered over 75 years ago that minor additions of elements with high affinity to
oxygen exert a profound effect on oxidation resistance of many metals and alloys. In this …

Abstract Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is an additive manufacturing technology that offers
significant potential for lightweight applications in space, aerospace, and automotive …

In this work, a high-strength crack-free TiN/Al–Mn–Mg–Sc–Zr composite was fabricated by
laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF). A large amount of uniformly distributed L1 2-Al 3 (Ti, Sc …

The mechanism underlying the considerable refinement of primary Al 3 Ti intermetallic
particles induced by ultrasonic treatment (UST) in an Al-0.4 wt% Ti alloy in the fully liquid …

A mechanism describing the synergistic effect of ultrasonic melt treatment (UST) and
subsequent fast cooling on the refinement of primary Si particles in a hypereutectic Al− Si …

Since its invention by Sir Henry Bessemer in 1865, twin-roll casting (TRC) has been the
subject of extensive research, not only to develop the technology but also to achieve an …

An in situ synchrotron radiographic study of a molten Al–10 wt% Cu alloy under the
influence of an external ultrasonic field was carried out using the Diamond-Manchester …

In this work, an alternative approach to prevent unidirectional grain growth in wire+ arc
additive manufacturing (WAAM) is proposed and assessed, by moving cyclically the torch …

Abstract α-Alumina (Al 2 O 3) single crystals with different termination planes were used as
heterogeneous nucleation substrates for liquid aluminum to varying lattice misfits at the …
