Simultaneous improvement of strength and conductivity is urgently demanded but
challenging for bimetallic materials. Here we show by creating a self-assembled lamellar …

A novel two-step hot isostatic pressing strategy has been brought up to fabricate a kind of
TiB/(TA15-Si) composites. The densification process and the process of introducing TiB …

Despite the limitations imposed by their composition, natural materials overcome the trade-
off between strength and ductility through their unique structural features. Inspired by the …

Abstract CNTs/Ti composites (Carbon nanotube reinforced titanium matrix composites) with
a novel micro-nano laminated structure consisting of alternating CNTs nanolayers and Ti …

Abstract A novel Hf 30 Nb 25 Ta 25 Ti 15 Mo 5 refractory high entropy alloy (RHEA) with
BCC structure has been proposed. The compressive yield strength, fracture strain and …

Due to the contradictory relationship between strength and toughness, many novel
structures have been designed to overcome the tradeoff dilemma. In this paper, pure copper …

Laser shock peening, an advanced technology for severe surface plasticity peening,
encounters challenges such as shallow hardened layers and surface spalling when dealing …

The effects of the VR/VD ratio (the volume fraction ratio of recrystallized grains and coarse
deformed grains) on the work hardening and softening behaviors of Mg–6Zn-1Gd-0.12 Y …

A carbon–containing CrMnFeCoNi high–entropy alloy (C–HEA) nanocomposite was
additively manufactured via a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process combined with …

Ductility collapse is a stubborn issue for developing high-strength Al matrix composites
reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). In order to solve this problem, here we …
