The expanded compositional freedom afforded by high-entropy alloys (HEAs) represents a
unique opportunity for the design of alloys for advanced nuclear applications, in particular …

For group VB transition metal carbides, as compared to group IVB carbides, an anomalous
rise in hardness occurs for substoichiometric carbon concentrations as compared to the …

We have performed first-principles evolutionary searches for stable Ti–N compounds and
have found, in addition to the well-known rock-salt TiN, new ground states Ti3N2, Ti4N3 …

Ghana is a typical low-income sub-Saharan African country facing significant sanitation
challenges. In Ghana, fresh salads are not part of the normal diet, but have become a …

Structural, elastic, and thermal properties of the hexagonal TM 5 Al 3 C (TM= Zr, Hf, and Ta)
carbides were investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional …

The transition metal carbides have been known to act as traps for hydrogen in steels as well
as potential materials for hydrogen storage. Despite numerous experimental and a few …

This review summarizes the phase stability in the group IVB (Ti‐C; Zr‐C; Hf‐C) and group
VB (V‐C; Nb‐C; Ta‐C) transition‐metal carbides. The order parameter functional (OPF) …

Using ab-initio calculations, the stability of various stable and metastable group IVB and VB
transition metal carbide compounds at ambient pressure and 0 K were investigated. By …

Crystal structure prediction has been widely used to accelerate the discovery of new
materials in recent years. Up to this day, it remains a challenge to predict the stable …

Transition metal carbides (TMCs) are explored for their potential as radiation shielding
materials, with a focus on their γ-ray attenuation properties. These high-density materials …
