Metallic materials experience irreversible deformation with increasing applied stress,
manifested in localized slip events that result in fatigue failure upon repeated cycling. We …

In this work, the microstructures of the electron-beam welded joints of cast Al–Cu–Mg–Ag
alloy plate were investigated in terms of the element segregation, grain structure and …

Pre-stretching prior to aging is known to degrade the performance of Al–Cu–Mg–Ag alloys at
elevated temperatures. In this work, small pre-stretching by 0.5% and 1.8% is selected to …

Good stress relaxation stability enables heat-resistant aluminum alloys to serve well at high
temperatures. From the viewpoint of simultaneous regulation of microstructure and …

The coarsening behavior of strengthening particles has been studied in a peak-aged Al–Cu–
Mg–Ag alloy during creep at 150° C and 165° C. The average {111} Al Ω plate thickness and …

The atomic structure of Ω plates forming on {111} Al planes in an Al-Cu-Mg-Ag alloy has
been investigated by Z-contrast atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted a great deal of interest and high expectations not
only from the scientific community, but also from the industrial point of view, mainly because …

The microstructures and mechanical properties of novel cast Al-Cu-Mg-Ag alloys with and
without minor additions of Er (0.09 and 0.2 wt%) are investigated by Vickers hardness tests …

The effects of Ag on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and electrical conductivity of
AA2024 aluminum alloy coating were investigated. It was fabricated by friction surfacing as …

This paper experimentally investigates the mechanical properties of 1860 MPa twisted wire
strands and the load capacity of hot casting sockets at elevated temperatures. The stress …
