This paper investigates the effect of vanadium on the composition and morphology of intermetallics formed during the squeeze casting of Mg-modified Al-8Fe-1.4V-8Si alloy in both monolithic form and as-reinforccd with 7.58,10.52 and 15.68 wt.% SiC particles (SiC(p)). Iron intermetallics of alpha-Al(7)(Fe,V)(3)Si and beta-Al(18)Fe(11)Si phases were predominantly observed in the alloy and composite. SEM studies and the EDX analyses revealed that refinement of Fe-intermetallics and modification of beta-phases to less deleterious morphologies of alpha-phases has been achieved by vanadium addition of 1.4%. Also, heat treatment enhances V diffusion and SiC particles act as nucleation sites for the formation of finer alpha-intermetallics. Fractographs exhibited cracking of long P-phases and partial decohesion of SiC(p) from the matrix.

Effect of Sm on thermal and mechanical properties of Cu-Zr-Al bulk metallic glasses Sikan, Fatih; Atabay, S. E.; Motallebzadeh, A.; Özerinç, Sezer; Kalay, I.; Kalay, Yunus Eren (Elsevier BV, 2019-01-16) The effect of rare-earth (Sm) microalloying on the thermal stability and phase selection along with the effect of nanocrystallization on the mechanical properties of amorphous melt-spun ribbons of Zr50Cu40Al10, Zr49Cu39.2Al9.8Sm2 and Zr48Cu38.4Al9.6Sm4 alloys were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Vickers and nanoindentation hardness tests and micropillar compression analysis. XRD and TEM analyses showed that all samp...
Some peculiarities of nematic-isotropic liquid phase transitions in monomorphic and polymorphic mesogens Nesrullajev, Arif; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Saliholu, Selami; Kazanc, Nadide (Elsevier BV, 2002-10-03) In this study, the dynamics of the changes of the morphological properties in the nematic mesophase and in the heterophase regions of the phase transitions between the nematic mesophase and the isotropic liquid for the thermotropic mesogens have been investigated. Experimentally, we have obtained the thermal hysteresis for the investigated phase transitions. For the analysis of the phase transition temperatures and the peculiarities of the heterophase regions, the mean field theory has been used.
Microstructural and texture evolution during thermo-hydrogen processing of Ti6Al4V alloys produced by electron beam melting Dogu, Merve Nur; ESEN, ZİYA; Davut, Kemal; Tan, Evren; Gumus, Berkay; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi (Elsevier BV, 2020-10-01) The present study was conducted to reveal the effects of building angles and post heat-treatments (2-step Thermo-Hydrogen Processing (THP) and conventional annealing treatment) on the density, microstructure and texture of Ti6Al4V alloy parts produced by Electron Beam Melting (EBM). The results showed that regardless of the building angle; the density, microstructure and crystallographic texture (defined with respect to building angle) of the as-produced samples were identical; having Widmanstatten a struct...
Flow transitions and flow localization in large-strain deformation of magnesium alloy Sagapuram, Dinakar; Efe, Mert; Trumble, Kevin P.; Chandrasekar, Srinivasan (Elsevier BV, 2016-04-06) Understanding transitions from homogeneous to localized flow, and mechanisms underlying flow localization, is of paramount importance for deformation processing of magnesium. In this study, a shear based deformation method is utilized for imposing large strains (similar to 1), under controllable strain rates (10-10(5)/s) and temperatures (80-300 degrees C), in order to examine flow patterns in a magnesium alloy. Based on microstructure characterization, deformation twinning is suggested to contribute to the...
A study of phase stability and mechanical properties of hydroxylapatite-nanosize alpha-alumina composites Evis, Zafer (Elsevier BV, 2007-04-01) Hydroxylapatite (HA)-nanosize alumina composites were synthesized to study their phase stability and mechanical properties. To make these composites, nanosize alpha-Al2O3 powder was used because of its better sinterability and densification as compared to nanosize gamma-Al2O3. The composites were air sintered without pressure and hot pressed in vacuum at 1100 degrees C and 1200 degrees C. In the composites, HA decomposed to tricalcium phosphate faster after the air sintering than hot pressing. Moreover, hex...
