The present article reviews the development of cast aluminium alloy with highlights on
improvement in the morphological, mechanical, tribological, and ageing properties of Sr …

Heterostructured materials comprised of relatively soft/hard disparate phases typically
exhibit composite strengthening but lack plastic deformability at ambient temperatures …

Alloying technology usually improves the mechanical properties of alloys; however, the high
cost of alloying elements limits their wider applicability to conventional cast aluminium …

The effects of erbium (Er) modification on the microstructure and mechanical properties of
A356 aluminum alloys were investigated using optical microscope, X-ray diffraction …

A Sr modifier and an Al-Ti-B grain refiner were simultaneously added to an Al-7Si-0.35 Mg
cast alloy and the interaction between Sr and Al-5Ti-1B was investigated. The combined …

Wheel belt continuous casting and hot extrusion experiments were performed with the Al-0.5
wt.% Fe alloys. The effects of minor lanthanum (La) on the microstructures as well as the …

The growth characteristics of eutectic Si in unmodified and Sr-modified Al–12.7% Si alloys
were investigated by microstructure-correlated crystallographic analyses. For the unmodified …

Several interesting nanostructures of high pressure die cast commercial Al-Si-Cu alloy
(A383) were characterized via transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe …

The effects of rare earth element on the microstructures, tensile properties and electrical
properties of aluminum alloys have brought about widespread interesting in the last few …

This article begins with pure aluminum and a discussion of the form of the crystal structure
and different unit cells that can be used to describe it. Measurements of the face-centered …
