In situ Al2024- Mg2Si composite was fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS) of reactive powder. Reactive powder was obtained from mechanical alloying (MA) of elemental powders. Clad layers of in situ composite were fabricated on Al substrates by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Structural evolution during MA process and after SPS was investigated by X-ray diffractometery (XRD). Scanning electro...

in this study, as for the re-casting, surface alloying and re-solidification layer of this alloys at the work piece level machining with wire electro discharge machining (wedm), changes of surface micro hardness with changes of operational parameters has been studied. therefore, study shows using surface alloying phenomena with the diffusion of wire material into the machined surface and select...

Density functional theory is utilized to articulate a particular generic deconstruction of the electrode/electro-catalyst assembly for the cathode process during water splitting. A computational model was designed to determine how alloying elements control the fraction of H2 released during zirconium oxidation by water relative to the amount of hydrogen picked up by the corroding alloy. This mo...

A novel metal matrix composite CrMnFeCoNi with Y₂O₃ as reinforcement phase was designed and manufactured by mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering. After sintering at 900 °C for 5 min, the microstructure consisted of a FCC matrix and Y₂O₃ nanoparticles. The addition of 0.25 wt % Y₂O₃ increased the room temperature tensile strength of the CrMnFeCoNi base from 868 MPa to 1001 MPa, while t...

In this study, the effect of deposition regime on the wear behavior of VK8 coating applied to 1.2344 tool steel by electro spark method (ESA) was investigated. After sample preparation, the coating with high and low regime was applied. To assess the wear behavior, the pin on disk test method according to ASTM G99-04, was used. For surveying surface morphology and cross section of the coating as...
