Understanding the role of Ca segregation on thermal stability, electrical resistivity and mechanical strength of nanostructured aluminum
Xavier Sauvage, Fabien Cuvilly, Alan Russell +1
Achieving a combination of high mechanical strength and high electrical conductivity in low-weight Al alloys requires a full understanding of the relationships between nanoscaled f…
Multifunctional properties of composition graded Al wires
Cui Yang, Nicolas Masquellier, Camille Gandiolle +1
The potentiality of composition graded AlMgSi wires for optimized combination of electrical conductivity and torsion strength has been investigated. Composition graded wires were o…
Preferential evaporation in atom probe tomography: an analytical approach
Constantinos Hatzoglou, Solène Rouland, Bertrand Radiguet +5
Atom probe tomography (APT) analysis conditions play a major role in the composition measurement accuracy. Preferential evaporation, which significantly biases apparent composition…
Achieving highly strengthened Al-Cu-Mg alloy by grain refinement and grain boundary segregation
Takahiro Masuda, Xavier Sauvage, Shoichi Hirosawa +1
An age-hardenable Al-Cu-Mg alloy (A2024) was processed by high-pressure torsion (HPT) for producing an ultrafine-grained structure. The alloy was further aged for extra strengtheni…
Microstructure, mechanical properties and aging behaviour of nanocrystalline copper-beryllium alloy
Ivan Lomakin, Miguel Castillo-Rodríguez, Xavier Sauvage
A complex study of aging kinetics for both coarse-grained and nanostructured by severe plastic deformation Cu -- 2 wt% Be alloy is reported. It is shown that aging of a coarse-grai…
Intragranular nucleation of tetrahedral precipitates and discontinuous precipitation in Cu-5wt%Ag
M. Bonvalet, X. Sauvage, D. Blavette
Both continuous and discontinuous precipitation is known to occur in CuAg alloys. The precipitation of Ag-rich phase has been experimentally investigated by atom probe tomography a…
