Modeling peak-aged precipitate strengthening in Al–Mg–Si alloys

William Curtin, Yi Hu

Strengthening by needle-shaped precipitates is critical in Al–Mg–Si alloys. Here, the strengthening is studied computationally at the peak-aged condition where precipitate shearing and Orowan looping are usually considered to have equal strengths. Pseudo-r ...

APT/TEM characterization of the element segregation in ferritic/martensitic steels after irradiation in SINQ

Lijuan Cui

Ferritic /martensitic (FM) steels are among the most important materials in various nuclear applications. As radiation-induced segregation (RIS) is one of the major factors for embrittlement of nuclear materials, thereofre it is essential to study the RIS ...

Shear behavior of single- and triple-thickness masonry panels strengthened by bed-joint structural repointing

Ricardo Javier Serpell Carriquiry

Bed-joint structural repointing is a widely used strengthening technique in historic masonry constructions, particularly in applications where the material appearance needs to be preserved. Despite its wide use, limited research is available on the effecti ...

Theory of kink migration in dilute BCC alloys

William Curtin, Alireza Ghafarollahi

Plastic deformation in elemental BCC metals and dilute alloys is controlled by the slower of the kink pair nucleation and kink migration processes along screw dislocations. In alloys nucleation is facilitated and migration inhibited, leading to a concentra ...

High energy barriers for edge dislocation motion in body-centered cubic high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Recep Ekin Kubilay, Francesco Maresca, Alireza Ghafarollahi

Recent theory proposes that edge dislocations in random body-centered cubic (BCC) high entropy alloys have high barriers for motion, conveying high strengths up to high temperatures. Here, the energy barriers for edge motion are computed for two model allo ...

Theory of twin strengthening in fcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Recep Ekin Kubilay

Twinning in fcc High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) has been implicated as a possible mechanism for hardening that enables enhanced ductility. Here, a theory for the twinning stress is developed analogous to recent theories for yield stress. Specifically, the stres ...

Fatigue of reinforced UHPFRC members and monitoring of fatigue action effects on bridges

Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki

The objective of this thesis is to develop knowledge and methods to prevent fatigue failure of bridges. The Fatigue Limit State is investigated from both the demand (S) and resistance (R) side. The S-part focuses on reduction of uncertainties through monit ...

Influence of Hf on the heat treatment response of additively manufactured Ni-base superalloy CM247LC

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Christian Leinenbach, Hossein Ghasemi Tabasi, Shreyas Sanjay Joglekar

The influence of Hf on the heat treatment response of a Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) fabricated Ni-base superalloy was investigated. A Hf-free version of CM247LC, CM247LC NHf, and CM247LC (similar to 1.4 wt% Hf) were subjected to identical thermal treat ...

Effect of solute-solute interactions on strengthening of random alloys from dilute to high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Shankha Nag

The yield strength of random metal alloys, i.e. alloys with random occupation of the crystalline lattice sites by the elemental constituent atoms all considered as solutes, is primarily understood as controlled by solute/dislocation interactions. Solute-so ...

Concurrent multiscale modeling and theory of solute-strengthening for dilute and complex concentrated alloys

Shankha Nag

Under common processing conditions, both dilute and complex concentrated alloys are often realized as random alloys, with no correlation in the occupancy of lattice sites by the constituent atom types. The current thesis primary addresses two problems in r ...
