The microstructure of metals—i.e., their internal structure on the scale of a few nanometers to several micrometers—is crucial in determining their electrochemical properties.
A team of international scientists headed by Prof. Marco Salvalaglio from TUD–Dresden University of Technology has found out ...
This Collection brings together the latest developments in additive manufacturing of metals and ceramics, focusing on microstructure development, process parameters, and mechanical performance.
These findings challenge classical theories and could improve how we design materials for engineering and technology. The results have recently been published in the scientific journal “Proceedings of ...
By studying how light reflects from the surface of metals, engineers can now tell if manufactured parts meet quality control standards. This time- and cost-effective technology opens new avenues ...
25.09.2024 12:04 How the microstructure of highly reactive alkali metals in solid-state batteries can be determined Caroline Link Presse, Kommunikation und Marketing Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen ...
Designing next-generation metals, ... “The defects in crystal, grain size and microstructure in a metal can affect the metal’s characteristics, like strength and toughness.
Microstructure: The microstructure of a metal refers to its crystal or grain structure as shown through examination of etched and polished surfaces under a microscope. Metals whose microstructures are ...
A nuclear reactor is a tough place for metals. All those neutrons bouncing around wreak havoc with the crystalline structure of steel, tungsten and other metals used in fuel rods and other parts.
In thinking about how the microstructure of metals and alloys influence dislocation motion, and hence the mechanical properties of these materials, it is useful to remember that the dislocation line ...
ITHACA, N.Y. -- Just as a snowflake’s intricate structure vanishes when it melts and transforms when it refreezes, the microstructure of metals can change during the 3D printing process ...
