The improvement of mechanical properties must be achieved by designing and constructing
more suitable microstructure, such as hierarchical microstructure. In order to significantly …

The plasma-facing components of future fusion reactors, where the Eurofer97 is the primary
structural material, will be assembled by laser-welding techniques. The heterogeneous …

In this paper, the influences of prior cold deformation on creep behavior, microstructure
evolution, and fracture mechanism of the novel G115 steel were systematically investigated …

This paper reports the short-term creep behaviour at elevated temperatures of a MarBN steel
variant. Creep tests were performed at three different temperatures (625° C, 650° C and …

To promote the wide application of the G115 steel in ultra-supercritical (USC) power plants,
creep deformation, microstructure evolution and rupture mechanism of the G115 welded …

In the present study, the microstructure and mechanical performance of a tungsten inert gas
welded joint between a novel heat-resistant austenitic steel and Inconel 617 weld metal …

The heterogeneity of microstructures in heat affect zone of 9Cr-1.5 W heat resistant steel
friction stir welding joint was studied, and its influence on the weld creep property was …

Temperature variation plays a crucial role in the safe operation of welded structures during
long-term high-temperature service. The present work aimed to explore the relationship …

Introduction The Biggest challenges coal-fired power plants are facing are improving their
energy efficiencies and reducing their environmental impact due to CO2 and NOX …

Strain cycling prior to a constant load exposure is expected to influence the creep properties.
The present work aimed to evaluate the effect of prior low cycle fatigue (LCF) damage on the …
