  1. 26. Sputter Deposition, Mechanical Properties, and Thermal Stability of Nitride Based Superlattices

    Author : Carolina Engström; Helmut Holleck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Investigations concerning deposition, mechanical properties and thermal stability of nitride-based superlattice films have been performed. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques were adopted for microstructural characterization, while nanoindentation hardness and abrasive wear resistance measurements were utilized for evaluation of mechanical properties.

  2. 27. Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing and Welding of Duplex Stainless Steel using Laser Beam

    Author : Amir Baghdadchi; Leif Karlsson; Joel Andersson; Vahid Hosseini; Dirk Engelberg; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Duplex stainless steel; Laser welding; Additive manufacturing; Direct Energy Deposition using a Laser Beam; Microstructure characterization; Duplexa rostfria stål; Lasersvetsning; Additiv tillverkning; Metalldeponering med laser; Mikrostruktur; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Duplex stainless steels (DSSs), with a ferritic-austenitic microstructure, are used in a wide range of applications thanks to their high corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. However, efficient and successful production and joining of DSS require precise control of processes and an in-depth understanding of the relations between composition, processing thermal cycles, resulting microstructures and properties.

  3. 28. Microstructural characterization and hardening behavior of reactive magnetron sputtered TiN/Si₃N₄ multilayer thin films

    Author : Hans Söderberg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis adds a new piece to the puzzle that describes how the microstructural characteristics influence the hardness behavior of a multilayer coating. It contains a presentation of the manufacturing and the subsequent characterization of multilayer thin films. READ MORE

  4. 29. Effect of boron and hydrogen on microstructure and mechanical properties of cast Ti-6Al-4V

    Author : Raghuveer Gaddam; Magnus Hörnqvist; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Titanium alloy; Metallography; Fractography; Castings; Low cycle fatigue; Hydrogen; Boron; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Titanium and its alloys are widely used in applications ranging from aeroengines and offshore equipment to biomedical implants and sporting goods, owing to their high ratio of strength to density, excellent corrosion resistance, and biomedical compatibility. Among the titanium alloys used in aerospace, Ti-6Al-4V (an α+β alloy) is the most widely used, in applications in which the temperature may reach 350°C, at which point it retains good fatigue and fracture properties as well as moderate tensile strength and ductility.

  5. 30. Creep aspects of softwood from the cell-wall level to structures

    Author : Rhodel Bengtsson; E. Kristofer Gamstedt; Mahmoud Mousavi; Reza Afshar; Falk Wittel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Creep; Solid Mechanics; Wooden Materials; Linear Viscoelasticity; Experiments; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the intricate mechanical behaviour of natural materials, with a particular focus on wood. Despite millennia of use, understanding the mechanical behaviour of wood materials remains challenging due to their complex microstructures. READ MORE
