The addition of nanoscale additions to magnesium (Mg) based alloys can boost mechanical
characteristics without noticeably decreasing ductility. Since Mg is the lightest structural …

Departing from nucleation and growth involved in phase transformations (PTs) and/or plastic
deformations (PDs), thermodynamics, kinetics, and thermo-kinetic partition are described. It …

Realizing high‐temperature thermal stability in thermoelectric (TE) generators is a critical
challenge. In this study, a synergistic interface and surface optimization strategy is …

Abstract A low-alloyed Mg-1.2 Zn-0.1 Ca (wt.%) alloy was fabricated via low-temperature
extrusion and annealing at 250° C for different times (10, 30, and 90 min) to attain …

Designing structured materials with optimized mechanical properties generally focuses on
engineering microstructures, which are closely determined by the processing routes, such …

How to describe the bainitic transformation (BT) has always been considered as a key
problem in designing high strength low alloyed (HSLA) steels. Here, an analytical treatment …

In this work, the deformation mechanisms of the as-extruded Mg–3Bi–1Ca (BX31, wt.%)
alloy with strength-ductility synergy during room-temperature tension were studied in detail …

Two types of metastable β-series phases have been reported to exist in aged Mg-Sm alloys.
The first type refers to preferentially precipitated β′-series phases (including β′ s, β′ l …

In order to further explore the effect of pre-aging treatment on large-scale alloys, a pre-aging
extruded Mg-9.32 Gd-4.02 Y-2.16 Zn-0.48 Zr (wt.%) alloy with large extrusion ratio (ER …

Significantly enhancing the mechanical properties of Mg–Bi base series alloys is of great
significance for their wider application prospects. Here, a new Mg–3Bi–1Ca (BX31, wt.%) …
