Studies on the improvement in wear resistance of WC-Co composites by adding a pseudo-elastic TiNi phase and relevant issues
DownloadSpring 2012
In this study, pseudo-elastic TiNi alloy was added as a second phase to the Co matrix of WC-Co composite, which has found many applications in forms of coating, hardfacing overlay and bulk against wear. It was demonstrated that the added TiNi phase markedly enhanced the wear resistance of...

Magnesium remarkably deserves considerable interest from industry especially transportation sector because of its high strength to weight ratio. However, poor wear resistance and low corrosion resistance of magnesium are barriers to extend use of its alloys. Yttrium is one of rare-earth elements...

The effects of annealing treatment on mechanical properties of nanocrystalline α-iron: an atomistic study
DownloadFall 2015
Nanocrystalline metallic materials demonstrate superior mechanical, optical, and electric properties. Claims are often found in the literature that metallic materials can be nanocrystallized by severe plastic deformation (SPD). However, SPD does not generate a well-defined nanocrystalline...
