Precipitate strengthening of pyramidal slip in Mg-Zn alloys
Reza Alizadeh, Jingya Wang, Javier LLorca
The mechanical properties of Mg-4wt.% Zn alloy single crystals along the [0001] orientation were measured through micropillar compression at 23C and 100C. Basal slip was dominant i…
Microstructure, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility of WE43 Mg alloy scaffolds fabricated by laser powder bed fusion for biomedical applications
M. Li, F. Benn, T. Derra +6
Open-porous scaffolds of WE43 Mg alloy with a body-center cubic cell pattern were manufactured by laser powder bed fusion with different strut diameters. The geometry of the unit c…
Experimental and numerical analysis of cyclic deformation and fatigue behavior of a Mg-RE alloy
Meijuan Zhang, Hong Zhang, Anxin Ma +1
Strain-controlled fatigue of Mg-1Mn-0.5Nd (wt.\%) alloy were studied by experiment and simulation. The microstructure was made up of a dispersion of strongly texture grains (13\%)…
First principles analysis of precipitation in Mg-Zn alloys
S. Liu, G. Esteban-Manzanares, J. LLorca
Precipitation in Mg-Zn alloys was analyzed by means of first principles calculations. Formation energies of symmetrically distinct hcp Mg1-xZnx (0 < x < 1) configurations were dete…
High temperature strength retention of Cu/Nb nanolaminates through dynamic strain ageing
Zhilin Liu, J. Snel, T. Boll +4
The mechanical properties of Cu/Nb metallic nanolaminates with different layer thickness (7, 16, 34 and 63 nm) were studied by means of micropillar compression tests from room temp…
High temperature mechanical properties and microstructure of hard TaSiN coatings
M. A. Monclús, L. Yang, I. López-Cabañas +7
Room and high temperature mechanical properties of reactive magnetron sputtered TaSiN coatings were measured using nanoindentation (between 25C and 500C). Fracture toughness was al…
An analysis of the influence of the precipitate type on the mechanical behavior of Al-Cu alloys by means of micropillar compression tests
B. Bellón, S. Haouala, J. LLorca
The influence of different types of precipitates (either Guinier-Preston zones, or ) on the critical resolved shear stress and strain hardening was determined by means of…
Atomistic simulations of the interaction of basal dislocations with MgZn precipitates in Mg alloys
G. Esteban-Manzanares, R. Alizadeh, I. Papadimitriou +3
The interaction between Mg edge basal dislocations and rod-shaped -MgZn precipitates was studied by atomistic simulations using a new interatomic potential. The atomistic…
Grain boundary slip transfer classification and metric selection with artificial neural networks
Zhuowen Zhao, Thomas R. Bieler, Javier LLorca +1
An artificial neural network is used to evaluate the effectiveness of six metrics and their combinations to assess whether slip transfers across grain boundaries in coarse-grained…
Effect of Al content on the critical resolved shear stress for twin nucleation and growth in Mg alloys
Jingya Wang, Jon M. Molina-Aldareguía, Javier LLorca
The effect of Al atoms in solid solution on the critical resolved shear stress for twin nucleation and growth was analyzed by means of the combination of diffusion couples with com…
Interactions between basal dislocations and precipitates in Mg-4Zn alloy: mechanisms and strengthening
R. Alizadeh, J. LLorca
The mechanisms of dislocation/precipitate interaction as well as the critical resolved shear stress were determined as a function of temperature in a Mg-4 wt. % Zn alloy by means o…
