Laves phases with their comparably simple crystal structure are very common intermetallic
phases and can be formed from element combinations all over the periodic table resulting in …

This article presents an overview of the developments in stainless steels made since the
1990s. Some of the new applications that involve the use of stainless steel are also …

Many traditional approaches for strengthening steels typically come at the expense of useful
ductility, a dilemma known as strength–ductility trade-off. New metallurgical processing …

Sustained wear damages on the sliding surfaces of alloys are generally the culprit
responsible for the failure of various mechanical systems. Inspired by high-entropy effects …

Structural materials represent the key for containment of nuclear fuel and fission products as
well as reliable and thermodynamically efficient production of electrical energy from nuclear …

High entropy materials, a horizon-broadening class of materials with complex stoichiometry,
have gained significant interest recently. The ideal regulation and the attractive synergy …

On 15 December 2009, the world's most fuel-efficient commercial jetliner—the Boeing 787
Dreamliner—completed its first flight. The airliner is mostly made from carbon fiber …

Molten chloride salts are promising advanced high-temperature (400–800° C) thermal
energy storage (TES) and heat transfer fluid (HTF) materials in next generation concentrated …

A solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a clean and efficient energy conversion device. The
development of intermediate-temperature SOFCs has made it preferable to use metallic …

Synergistic effects of Al and Ti on the oxidation behaviour and mechanical properties of
FeCoCrNi high-entropy alloys were systematically investigated. Our results reveal that …
