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 …

The microstructure, thermal and mechanical stability of Ni-based single crystalline
superalloys depend strongly on the alloying elements and their concentrations. Alloying has …

Precipitation strengthening has been the basis of physical metallurgy since more than 100
years owing to its excellent strengthening effects. This approach generally employs coherent …

Among the vast number of multi-principal-element alloys that are referred to as high-entropy
alloys (HEAs) in the literature, only a limited number solidify as single-phase solid solutions …

The precipitation of topologically close-packed (TCP) phases is the result of microstructure
instabilities of Ni-based superalloys. This review seeks to comprehensively collate all the …

MCrAlY (M= Ni and/or Co) overlay coating is widely used as a protective coating against
high temperature oxidation and corrosion. However, due to its big difference in chemical …

Successful design of materials and manufacturing processes requires the availability of
reliable materials data. Commercial alloys usually contain a large number of elements, and …

Selective laser melting (SLM) provides an economic approach to manufacturing Ni-base
superalloy components for high-pressure gas turbines as well as repairing damaged blade …

Predicting the phase precipitation of multicomponent alloys, especially the Ni-base
superalloys, is a difficult task. In this work, we introduced a dependable and efficient way to …

Understanding how topologically close-packed phases (TCPs) transform between one
another is one of the challenging puzzles in solid-state transformations. Here we use atomic …
