Bulk nanostructured (NS) materials processed by severe plastic deformation (SPD) have
received considerable attention for several decades. The physical origin of this processing …

Abstract Cu–Al–Ni alloys are one class of typical precipitation strengthening alloy, its
mechanical properties are highly sensitive to temperature and strain. In this work, the …

The three-dimensional hierarchical twin network has been proved to be the source of the
excellent strength-ductility combination in the CoCrNi medium entropy alloy. Revealing the …

Twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) and phase transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) are
two effective mechanisms for achieving good combination of strength and ductility in metallic …

In this study, a tri-phase heterogeneous high-entropy alloy (HEA)(Al 9 (Fe 50 Mn 30 Co 10
Cr 10) 91, at.%) exhibiting transformation-and twinning-induced plasticity (TRIP-TWIP) that …

In this study, GH3536 superalloy was subjected to the cold rolling processing up to 60% of
thickness reductions for meticulously investigating the evolutions of both microstructure and …

The CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) exhibits higher yield strength, ultimate strength
and ductility at lower temperature. To further clarify the effect of the testing temperature on …

Processing at cryogenic temperatures is one of the ways of improving mechanical properties
of copper alloys. However, such processing routes may result in unstable microstructures …

The main objective of this work was to investigate the thermomechanical behavior and
microstructural changes of a Ti-rich NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA). The microstructural and …

Friction, wear and plastic deformation of copper (Cu) and α/β brass were studied under
lubrication conditions. Hardness and microstructure of surface layers were evaluated. The …
