Simple shear extrusion versus equal channel angular pressing: A comparative study on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an Mg alloy

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Aryan Rezaei Rad

Two severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques of simple shear extrusion (SSE) and equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) were employed to process an extruded Mg -6Gd -3Y -1.5Ag (wt%) alloy at 553 K for 1, 2, 4 and 6 passes. The microstructural evolutions ...

Crystallographically Oriented Hybrid Perovskites via Thermal Vacuum Codeposition

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Mounir Driss Mensi, Hiroyuki Kanda, Cristina Roldán Carmona, Maria Cristina Momblona Rincón, Yen-Cheng Liu, Nadja Isabelle Desiree Klipfel

Hybrid lead halide perovskites typically form polycrystalline films that have multiple grain sizes and surface defects. A key engineering challenge toward commercialization is therefore the production of homogeneous, defect-free largearea devices achieving ...

Multi-scale investigation on mechanical behavior and microstructural alteration of C-S-H in carbonated Alite paste

Karen Scrivener

Carbonation treatment is a promising option to enhance recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) quality and eventually improve concrete performance. This study investigated the multi-scale mechanical properties of calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H) in a mature ali ...

Explosive fragmentation of Prince Rupert's drops leads to well-defined fragment sizes

Jean-François Molinari

Anyone who has ever broken a dish or a glass knows that the resulting fragments range from roughly the size of the object all the way down to indiscernibly small pieces: typical fragment size distributions of broken brittle materials follow a power law, an ...

Brittle faulting of ductile rock induced by pore fluid pressure build‐up

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Corentin Jean-Marie Rémi Noël

Under upper crustal conditions, deformations are primarily brittle (i.e., localized) and accommodated by frictional mechanisms. At greater depth, deformations are ductile (i.e., distributed) and accommodated by crystal plasticity, diffusion mass transfer o ...

Influence of Joule Effect Heating on Recrystallization Phenomena in Inconel 718

Roland Logé, Mathijs Pieter van der Meer

In this article, the Joule effect heating influence on recrystallization phenomena in the Inconel 718 nickel-based superalloy is investigated in details. On the one hand, static recrystallization kinetic studies at 1020 degrees C after cold deformation up ...

Microstructural Evolution Study of Fe-Mn-Al-C Steels Through Variable Thermomechanical Treatments

Roland Logé

The microstructural evolution of the two austenitic alloys Fe-20Mn-3Al-0.7C wt pct and Fe-20Mn-6Al-0.7C wt pct when different thermal and thermomechanical treatments are performed has been studied. To this end, a generic industrial die of 100 ton capacity ...

Mechanical and hydraulic transport properties of transverse-isotropic Gneiss deformed under deep reservoir stress and pressure conditions

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mateo Alejandro Acosta

In central Europe, many geo-energy reservoirs have revealed to be hosted in transverse isotropic crystalline rock, where the rock's mechanical and hydraulic transport properties are poorly constrained. Here, we performed triaxial experiments on Cresciano G ...

Triplet grain growth in a-texture polycrystalline ZnO thin films

Cécile Hébert, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Arthur Brian Aebersold

A growth of grain triplets is identified in vapor deposited, a-texture polycrystalline zinc oxide thin films, using a combination of transmission electron microscopy-based automated crystal orientation mapping and high-resolution imaging. Each triplet cons ...

The shear strength of Opalinus Clay shale in the remoulded state

Alessio Ferrari

The Opalinus Clay shale formation is considered as a potential host geomaterial for the Swiss deep geological repository for radioactive waste. It presents different facies and it is characterised by a multi-scale heterogeneous composition, by a typical fi ...

Direct currents stimulate carbonate mineralization for soil improvement under various chemical conditions

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis, Patrick Gabriel Yihsiu-Ming Hicher

The present study integrates direct electric currents into traditional calcium carbonate mineralization to investigate electrochemical interactions and the subsequent crystalline growth of CaCO3 bonds in sand. A specific line of focus refers to the effect ...

Template-assisted electrodeposition of nickel and nickel copper 3D microcomponents

Patrik Schürch

New types of metamaterials and architectured material require metallic materials with precise structural design in the microscale. However, additivemanufacturing of metallic structures in themicroscale has proven difficult, as the demand for the material q ...

Abnormal Grain Growth in AlScN Thin Films Induced by Complexion Formation at Crystallite Interfaces

Paul Muralt, Thomas La Grange, Stefan Mertin, Vladimir Pashchenko, Fazel Parsapour, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Ramin Matloub Aghdam

Sputter deposited Al(1-x)ScxN thin films with a Sc content from x = 0 to 43 at% are investigated by electron microscopy in order to study and explain the formation and growth of abnormally oriented grains (AOG). It is found that the latter did not nucleate ...

Composition and superposition of alluvial deposits drive macro-biological soil engineering and organic matter dynamics in floodplains

Claire Guenat, Pascal Turberg, Rodolphe Schlaepfer, Andreas Cedric Schomburg

Soil structure formation in alluvial soils is a fundamental process in near-natural floodplains. A stable soil structure is essential for many ecosystem services and helps to prevent river bank erosion. Plants and earthworms are successful soil engineering ...
