Vanadium is an important metal used almost exclusively in ferrous and non-ferrous alloys due to its physicochemical and mechanical properties such as grain refinement, high tensile strength, hardness and fatigue resistance; it has a wide range of uses in the metallurgical and chemical sectors [1–3]. There are mainly three kinds of raw materials, bone coal, vanadium slag and waste vanadium catal...

We present a brief review of recent advances in the atomistic modeling of segregation and precipitation kinetics in iron-chromium alloys, during thermal ageing and under irradiation. The approach takes into account the real diffusion mechanisms: vacancy and, under irradiation, self-interstitial jumps. Migration barriers are computed with effective pair interactions fitted on ab initio calculati...

Ni-Hard4 white cast iron is excellent wear resistant material and has been widely used in wearaffected equipment operated under extreme conditions, such as in mineral processing, cement, copper and iron manufacturing. In this study the effect of titanium addition (1.2, 0.7 and 0.2 wt.%) to the Ni-hard 4 cast iron with the nominal composition of Si= 1.5%, Mn=0.5%, C=3%, P=0.05%, S= 0.05%, Mo= 0....

Austenitic stainless steel (ASS) is the most common type of which offers excellent weldability and mechanical properties. ASS being used for various applications i.e. automotive, oil gas chemical industries in welding process plays a prominent role. Welding selection main factor that emphasizes corrosion resistance properties aggressive environments. There are occurs but intergranular (IGC) for...
