In order to elucidate the role of solutes in vanadium alloys, the solute diffusions and the
interactions of solute–solute and solute-vacancy have been investigated by means of the …

The WC-Cu composite used as a thermal barrier interlayer between tungsten and CuCrZr
heat sink can effectively alleviate the thermal strain mismatch. In this work, the interaction of …

Te is sulfide inclusion morphology optimization element in steel, and Te doping in MnS
inclusions is considered the main mechanism for modification, but the mechanism of Te …

The interactions between solute atoms and crystalline defects such as vacancies,
dislocations, and grain boundaries are essential in determining alloy properties. Here we …

The precipitates of second phases with coherent or incoherent interfaces can interact with
dislocations to act as slip obstacles that can significantly improve the mechanics properties …

Body-centred cubic (BCC) transition metals tend to be brittle at low temperatures, which
poses significant challenges in their processing and major concerns for damage tolerance …

The membranes of V-alloys are a promising alternative to Pd-alloy membranes for ultrapure
hydrogen extraction. The hydrogen solubility in V–xFe alloys (x= 3.5, 4.0, 7.1, 8.8, and 13.1 …

Effects of 3d (Ti-Ni), 4d (Zr-Pd), and 5d (Hf-Pt) transition metal impurities on strength of two
representative vanadium grain boundaries (GBs), symmetric Σ3 (111) and asymmetric Σ5 …

This study aims to elucidate the effects of interstitial impurities on the mechanical properties
of vanadium alloys investigated by means of the first-principles computations. For this …

Ag-based solid solutions have gained significant attention in the electronic packaging field
due to their remarkable plasticity. In this work, the generalized planar fault energy (GPFE) …
