Laves phases with their comparably simple crystal structure are very common intermetallic
phases and can be formed from element combinations all over the periodic table resulting in …

Metal hydride electrodes are of particular interest owing to their potential and practical
application in batteries. A large number of hydrogen storage materials has been …

Despite high interest in compact and safe storage of hydrogen in the solid-state hydride
form, the design of alloys that can reversibly and quickly store hydrogen at room temperature …

Laves phases form the largest group of intermetallic phases. Although they are well known
since long, there are still unsolved problems concerning the stability of the respective crystal …

This investigation explores the solid-state hydrogen storage properties of two series of
hydrogen storage alloys:(Ti 0.85 Zr 0.15) x Mn 0.8 CrFe 0.2 (x= 1.00∼ 1.10) and (Ti 0.85 Zr …

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the recent research on the phase stability,
point defects, and fracture toughness of AB2 Laves phases, and on the alloy design of dual …

In this work, a novel serial of Ti-33Zr-xFe-yCr (x= 3, 5, 7 wt% and y= 2, 4 wt%) alloys was
designed first with an expectation to obtain Laves phase in microstructure and then these …

In Part I, various models for the prediction of the occurrence and stability of Laves phases
have been discussed. In the present Part II paper, an overview is given on the various types …

Conventional intermetallics are strong but brittle. However, multi-principal element
intermetallics, also termed as high-entropy intermetallics (HEIs) in the recent high-entropy …

First-principles method is performed to systematically investigates structural, phase stability
and mechanical properties for the Laves phases MCo 2 (M= Sc, Ti, Y, Zr, Nb, Hf, Ta) with …
