In recent years, near-nano (submicron) and nanostructured materials have attracted
increasingly more attention from the materials community. Nanocrystalline materials are …

Storing hydrogen in materials is based on the observation that metals can reversibly absorb
hydrogen. However, the practical application of such a finding is found to be rather …

Spatially gradient microstructures have shown a promising application in enhancing
strength-ductility synergy of engineering metals such as austenitic stainless steels. However …

Microstructures and mechanical properties of equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP)
processed and naturally aged ultrafine grained (UFG) and coarse grained (CG) 7075 Al …

A new approach for the modelling of diffraction patterns without using analytical profile
functions is described and tested on ball milled fcc Ni powder samples. The proposed whole …

As a representative light metal, magnesium is promising to be used as a hydrogen carrier
owing to its high hydrogen capacity, low cost and natural abundance. The intrinsic …

In this work, we designed and successfully prepared new lightweight refractory high entropy
alloys (HEAs) Ti 75 Al 10 V 5 Cr 5 Nb 5, Ti 67 Al 12 V 7 Cr 7 Nb 7 and Ti 55 Al 15 V 10 Cr 10 …

Integral breadth methods for line profile analysis are reviewed, including modifications of the
Williamson–Hall method recently proposed for the specific case of dislocation strain …

Bulk ultra-fine-grained (UFG) materials produced by severe plastic deformation (SPD)[1]
usually have high strength but relatively low ductility at ambient temperatures.[2–4] This low …

Diffraction Analysis of the Microstructure of Materials provides an overview of diffraction
methods applied to the analysis of the microstructure of materials. Since crystallite size and …
