The interaction of calcite with trivalent europium under recrystallization conditions was studied on the molecular level using site-selective time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS). We conducted batch studies with a reaction time from seven days up to three years with three calcite powders, which differed in their specific surface area, recrystallization rates and impurities cont...

Abstract A wire of a β-Titanium alloy known as Gum Metal was cold rolled to reduction 80% and heat treated for times in the range 3-120 minutes at fixed temperature 740 °C yield set partially recrystallized microstructures. The recrystallization course evaluated by light optical microscopy Electron Backscatter Diffraction, based on which kinetics analysed using Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov (J...

Abstract The migration of recrystallization boundaries into spatially varying deformation energy fields are simulated based on a two-dimensional phase-field model. chosen as idealized versions microstructures subdivided by two sets intersecting geometrically necessary dislocation (GNBs), and effects the sharpness GNBs investigated. simulations show that shape recrystallizing grain well kinetics...

the pseudo-elastic behavior of shape memory alloy (sma) truss and cantilever beam are investigated. brinson’s one-dimensional material model, which uses the twinned and detwinned martensite fractions separately as internal variables, is applied in the algorithm to establish the sma stress-strain characteristics. this material model also incorporates different young’s modulus for austenitic and ...

A Cu precipitation-mediated austenitic transformation during ageing treatment of a 15–5 PH stainless steel is revealed through atom probe tomography, in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and computational thermodynamics kinetics. The proposed to occur the pathway: precipitation at martensite/retained austenite interfaces or martensite lath boundaries ? partitioning stabilizing elements towards...

A method based on the kinetics of crystal growth has been developed and applied to the computation of three-dimensional microstrucuture in austenite-matensite steels. The detailed crystallography of the transformation is used to model a realistic martensitic microstrucuture during the transformation without an external system of stresses. The interaction energy based on the plastic work model i...

Kinetic dependence of martensitic transformation and properties changes in Fe-24%Ni5%Mo alloys with different carbon content have been obtained. Internal friction method was used for the precise investigation of structural changes after austenization, during martensitic transformation at sub zero temperature and during the postheat. The influence: (i) of frequency of oscillations, (ii) rate of ...
