Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys are characterized by nanoscale oxide particles
homogeneously dispersed in a metallic matrix. They have been developed driven by …

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is known to promote health concerns that can manifest over both
short and long terms. Aging, sunburn, skin cancer, and other conditions are related to UV …

Cavitation erosion is a major challenge for marine and fluid machinery systems. This study
investigated the erosion performance of two as-cast aluminium alloys exposed to acoustic …

Grain refinement in alloys is a well-known effect of ultrasonic melt processing.
Fragmentation of primary crystals by cavitation-induced action in liquid metals is considered …

Aluminium composites have been extensively developed for automotive applications due to
their high specific strength. However, particle agglomeration, high porosity content, and …

While power ultrasound (PUS) has been proven to accelerate cement hydration, it remains
unclear whether cavitation occurs during this process. This study aimed to test the cavitation …

The high energy phenomenon of cavitation bubble collapses has enabled numerous
applications, including cleaning. In ultrasonic cleaning, cavitation intensity is typically lower …

The objective of this paper is to experimentally identify the primary sources of pressure when
a laser-induced cavitation bubble is collapsing to a wall with specific emphases on the …

Compared with laser additive manufacturing, direct writing metal additive manufacturing has
the advantages of simple principle, small equipment size and low manufacturing cost …

In this work, the effects of ultrasonic treatment on in-situ ZrB 2 particle-reinforced AA4032-
based composites were studied. The composites were synthesized from Al–K 2 ZrF 6–KBF 4 …
