Additively manufactured components are likely to contain defects deriving from the
manufacturing process. They are also likely to be designed with high geometric complexity …

This study aims at investigating the influence of high stress triaxiality on the yield strength
and ultimate tensile strength of commonly used structural steels (ASTM A36, ASTM A572 …

Powder bed based additive manufacturing techniques enable for fabrication of filigree and
geometrically complex structures. These structures typically are characterized by many cross …

The study demonstrates that the presence of sharp notch-like features on the as-built surface
of microstruts fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) results in reduced mechanical …

Generally, grain refinement is considered to strengthen and mitigate the hydrogen
embrittlement resistance of material. However, the effect of grain refinement on hydrogen …

Type 316LN stainless steel (SS) is the principal structural material for the components of
sodium cooled fast reactors operating under elevated temperature conditions. In order to …

In this study, the tensile strength and fracture mechanisms of Al6061-T6 plate specimens
were evaluated based on von Mises stress and triaxial tensile stress according to the …

Dislocation density based modified Kocks-Mecking approach has been employed to
understand the influence of nitrogen on kinetics of dislocation storage and annihilation …

This work addresses the applicability of a local criterion incorporating the coupling of critical
stress and a critical hydrogen concentration to predict hydrogen embrittlement effects on the …

This main purpose of the present research is to investigate the properties of wear and tensile
in smooth and notch conditions of the heat-treated Mg-Nd-Gd-Zn alloy. The material …
