The kinetics and channels of laser energy redistribution in a target irradiated by a short, 1 ps, laser pulse is investigated in computer simulations performed with a model that combines molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with a continuum description of the laser excitation and relaxation of the conduction band electrons, based on the two-temperature model (TTM). The energy transferred from th...

Recrystallization, which can occur dynamically or statically, is an importantphenomenon causing microstructure changes in deformed metals and therefore affecting theproperties of the material. Even though extensive investigations have been carried out on thenumerical modeling of recrystallization, the literature lacks accurate recrystallization modelswhich are able to predict mi...

This paper investigates the microstructural evolution and grain refinement kinetics of a solution-treated Cu-0.1Cr-0.06Zr alloy during equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at a temperature of 673 K via route BC. The microstructural change during plastic deformation was accompanied by the formation of the microband and an increase in the misorientations of strain-induced subboundaries. We argue...

Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) has been employed to study the assembly and recrystallization kinetics of isolated SbpA bacterial surface proteins onto silicon dioxide substrates of different surface wettability. Surface modification by UV/ozone oxidation or by vapor deposition of 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorododecyltrichlorosilane yielded hydrophilic or hydrophobic samp...

Steel 2205 is one of the most famous duplex stainless steels. The microstructure of this steel composed of ferrite and austenite in similar amount. Therefore, in order to improve mechanical properties through microstructure, thermo mechanical processes such as controlled hot rolling and forging should be applied. It is not possible to employ the usual heat treatment. It shows the importance of ...

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...
