Researchers were able to rapidly and accurately predict the microstructure of Nickel -- Aluminum (Ni-Al) alloys that are commonly used in the design of jet engine turbine parts. Predictions of the ...

In a world of 8 billion people, there's one thing that makes each of us unique: our fingerprints. A variety of genetic and environmental factors create tiny variations in the skin's ridges and whorls, ...

Each figure shows the composition distribution of each element. While conventional methods are estimated to take over two years for this calculation, the researchers’ new method completes it in just ...

Randomly selected, high-angle, general grain boundaries in a nickel-bismuth (Ni-Bi) polycrystalline alloy can undergo interfacial reconstruction to form ordered superstructures, a discovery that ...

Extending the crystal plasticity model [2.1] to investigate how grain pairs interact, to increase our understanding of how deformation traverses interfaces. Off In the general case for bcc and fcc ...

Cornell researchers have adopted an innovative approach to studying the emergence of microstructure in a 3D-printed metal alloy. They used X-Ray bombardment during the printing process. Doctoral ...

AA2024 is a heat-treatable aluminum-copper alloy that comprises aluminum, copper, magnesium, silicon, iron, and manganese. It provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, high tensile strength, and ...

(Nanowerk News) A team of researchers found that randomly selected, high-angle, general grain boundaries in a nickel-bismuth (Ni-Bi) polycrystalline alloy can undergo interfacial reconstruction to ...
