Physical modification of intermetallic phases in Al–Si–Cu alloys

PREDICTION OF THE ALUMINUM SILICON MODIFICATION LEVEL IN THE AlSiCu ALLOYS USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS

In this paper, two feed forward neural network models have been presented to predict the Silicon Modification Level (SiML) of W319 aluminum alloys using the Thermal Analysis (T.A) parameters as inputs. The developed neural networks are a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) network and a Radial Basis Function (RBF) network. The neural network models were found to predict the SiML accurately (R=0.99). Th...

Intermetallic Phases Examination in Cast AlSi5Cu1Mg and AlCu4Ni2Mg2 Aluminium Alloys in As-Cast and T6 Condition

Precipitates and intermetallic phases in precipitation hardening Al–Cu–Mg–(Li) based alloys

The present study contains a critical review of work on the formation of precipitates and intermetallic phases in dilute precipitation hardening Al–Cu–Mg based alloys with and without Li additions. Although many suggestions for the existence of pre-precipitates in Al–Cu–Mg alloys with a Cu/Mg atomic ratio close to 1 have been made, a critical review reveals that evidence exists for only two tru...

The preparation of the Ti-Al alloys based on intermetallic phases

This article deals with a method of obtaining materials in the Ti-Al system. Research was carried out in accordance with the phase diagram of the system state. It was established, that both single-phase and multiphase systems, containing finely dispersed intermetallic compositions of phases Ti3Al, TiAl and TiAl3, are formed. Additionally, it was found that the pure finely dispersed (coherent-sc...

Optimizaton of Mo-Si-B Intermetallic Alloys

Mo-Si-B intermetallics consisting of the phases Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2, and a molybdenum solid solution (“ -Mo”), have melting points on the order of 2000 °C. These alloys have potential as oxidationresistant ultra-high-temperature structural materials. They can be designed with microstructures containing either individual -Mo particles or a continuous -Mo phase. A compilation of existing data shows...
