Various morphologies of the ω phase are observed in the α and the β phases of group-IV
elements and their alloys where formation of this phase is induced by various means …

In this work, the effects of Nb content on microstructure and corrosion behaviors of
biomedical Zr–Nb alloys were systematically studied. The results of XRD analysis and …

Zr-ion irradiation was performed on pure Zr, Zr-2.5 Nb, and Zr-5Nb to a dose of 0.5 or 5 dpa
at 573 K. The irradiation induced defects, alloying element redistribution, precipitation, and …

Near surface layers in Zr–2.5% Nb alloy are modified using severe plastic deformation
process induced by ultrasonic impact peening (UIP). The effect of the UIP processing time …

In this work, terminal solid solubility (TSS) of hydrogen for Zr-alloy pressure tube materials
was determined corresponding to end of hydride dissolution (TSSD) and start of hydride …

Titanium alloys have been widely used as biomaterials, especially for orthopedic prostheses
and dental implants, but these materials have Young's modulus almost three times greater …

The plastic flow behaviour of a β-titanium alloy (Ti-15% Mo) was investigated over a wide
range of temperatures and strain rates covering those conditions where the ω-phase forms …

In order to develop new biomedical materials for hard tissue replacements, Zr–20Nb–xTi (x=
0, 3, 7, 11 and 15) alloys with required properties were designed and prepared by using the …

Engineered spinodal decomposition and spinodal precursors to precipitation hardening are
effective approaches for tailoring material's properties and performance. These approaches …

U-50wt% Zr is a candidate metallic nuclear fuel with potential application in light water
reactors due to its excellent thermal properties and high radiation tolerance. The Zr-rich UZr …
