Based on the successful applications of the first-principles calculations method in many
fields, the electronic structures, elastic properties, fracture toughness, and thermal properties …

This study was conducted with attempt to break through the bottleneck using a new concept–
high-entropy microstructure. It has been recently demonstrated that an alloy containing more …

Tensile residual stress in the laser-deposited M4 fabricated by direct energy deposition
(DED) may reduce the fatigue performance and tool life. Ultrasonic nanocrystal surface …

The iron carbide Fe 7 C 3 exhibits two types of basic crystal structures, an orthorhombic (o-)
form and a hexagonal (h-) one. First-principles calculations have been performed for the …

First-principles' calculations of GGA and GGA+ U type have been performed for γ-Fe23C6, a
complex iron carbide with 116 atom in the unit cell. GGA results were found to be in better …

The presented research demonstrates for the first time the successful processing of AISI M2
tool steel by binder jetting, a promising additive manufacturing technique capable of …

Hardfacing by laser provides a cost-effective option for protecting components against
mechanical wear and corrosion. In the present work, high speed steel hardfacings were …

The main goal of this work was to study the effect of plastic deformation on weldability of
duplex stainless steel (DSS). It is well known that plastic deformation prior to thermal cycles …

Abstract The γ-(Fe, M) 23 C 6 phases constitute an important class of iron carbides. They
occur both as precipitates in steels and iron alloys, thereby increasing their strength, and as …

The effects of laser surface treatment on the microstructure, crackability and stresses
generated on laser hardened layers produced in several ductile cast iron materials were …
