A rapid image segmentation and correlation-based approach to investigating the local microstructural effects on pitting corrosion susceptibility is introduced. The impact of four different features, consisting grain orientation, proximity boundaries, intermetallic particles, geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density, initiation in 5083 aluminum alloy was directly investigated using auto...

In this study, investigations into the deformation behavior of aluminum AA5083 at elevated temperatures were carried out on a newly developed test rig. The rig was jointly with ZwickRoell GmbH & Co. KG (Germany) and is based Nakajima heated dies. way, statements can be made about lightweight potential alloy. Additionally, equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) performed to process sheet meta...

Abstract. Aluminum alloys are highly versatile materials and their behavior can be improved by severe plastic deformation. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) is a key tool for studying the microstructural changes evolution of crystalline structure during this process. This combination processing techniques helped development high-performance aluminum various industrial applications. The objective was to d...

Structural Health Monitoring systems assess the part's current condition. This can be performed with a monitoring system comprising sensors, on surface or embedded, in monitored parts. However, sensors are subject to damage, and embedding may result weakened part. An innovative Self-Sensing Material its manufacturing process were developed presented herein. As proof of concept, Barium Titanate ...

Ceramic reinforced friction stir spot-welding (FSSW) is one of the unique welding techniques used to fabricate spot joints. This study intended investigate effect reinforcement additive particle size in achieving higher weld strengths. AA5083-H116 aluminum alloy plates were welded with nano- and micro-sized silicon carbide (SiC) particles. Investigations joints prepared using a tool rotational ...
