Al-Si alloy with superior mechanical properties. The novel processing pathway effectively …

Aluminium alloys designed for additive manufacturing with Zr addition exhibit
heterogeneous microstructures from the grain scale down to the atomic scale. Bimodal grain …

As a processing technique to change the organization and properties of materials, heat
treatment was widely used to strengthen metallic materials. This study examines the impact …

Laser powder bed fusion AlSi10Mg exhibits hierarchical and heterogeneous microstructure,
which leads to anisotropic mechanical properties. The present work systematically …

Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is an additive manufacturing technology widely applied to
the manufacture of metallic parts. The L-PBF processed aluminum-silicon (Al–Si) cast-type …

Surface roughening, which typically accompanies plastic deformation of metals, is often
considered detrimental. Using small-size samples, this study focuses on deformation …

Hierarchical and heterogeneous microstructure covers a vague veil on deformation
mechanisms and origins of mechanical anisotropy of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) …

The present study was undertaken to understand the effect of annealing on the
microstructural features of the melt-pool structure and the associated multiscale mechanical …

Hot compression simulation tests were carried out on a 56Ni–32Ti–12Hf alloy at
temperatures ranging from 800 to 1000° C and strain rates ranging from 0.001 to 1 s− 1. The …
