Gallium nitride crystal is a typical difficult-to-machine material due to its distinct anisotropy,
high brittleness, and high hardness. The molecular dynamics simulations of traditional …

Microstructural evolution during hot forming of aluminium alloys plays a critical role in both
the material flow behaviour during the deformation and the post-form mechanical properties …

Abstract Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys can be fabricated by a series of thermo-mechanical
processing methods (eg, hot rolling, forging and extrusion), which is able to serve in …

The hot deformation behavior of a novel Sc, Zr alloyed Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy was explored in
the isothermal hot compression test with a temperature range of 300–500° C and a strain …

Solid-state additive manufacturing methods provide innovative solutions to circumvent
problems associated with materials susceptible to hot cracking by avoiding liquid solid …

The corrosion resistance of 7075 aluminum (Al) alloy treated by ultrasonic surface rolling
process (USRP) in a chloride environment was studied in this work. The effects of different …

To understand the multiple effects of forced cooling on the joint quality in coolant-assisted
friction stir welding and the underlying mechanism, commercial pure aluminum AA1050 was …

A new approach to modelling the microstructure evolution and yield strength in laser powder
bed fusion components is introduced. Restoration mechanisms such as discontinuous …

A new forging process termed pre-hardening forming (PHF) process is proposed. The billets
are subjected to pre-hardening treatment, then preheated, and finally forged without …

Hot compression tests of 7150 aluminum alloy were preformed on Gleeble-1500 system in
the temperature range from 300° C to 450° C and at strain rate range from 0.01 s− 1 to 10 s …
