Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si specimens were shaped by repeated cycles of heating
(to 954 °C) and hammer or press forging followed by a solution anneal that varied from
968 to 998 °C. The coupons were originally extracted from billets forged below the beta
trans us ( 1009 °C) and slow cooled to ambient...
Mechanical properties of Nb-Ti composite superconducting wires were tested at
room temperature. The results were analysed using simple composite theory, the rule
of mixtures. The objective is to predict the mechanical properties of Nb-Ti
superconducting composite wires as a function of volume ratio and geometry of the
components, the composite...
This study determined the independent effects of various homogenization cycles and
precipitation treatments on the elevated temperature workability and the final ambient
temperature mechanical properties of AA2024 aluminum alloy and on the T3 tensile
properties of 2014 aluminum alloy as well as T6 tensile properties of 2618 and 2618 (Curich)...
Mechanical property degradation due to isothermal ageing is of potential concern for alloys based on the Ni-Cr binary system (e.g., Inconel 690, 625), particularly in nuclear power applications where component lifetimes can exceed 40 years. In the present research, the disorder-order phase transformation, which is the primary mechanism of ageing,...
