Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical properties, microstructure and thermal stability of a nanocrystalline CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy after severe plastic deformation

TL;DR: In this article, an equiatomic CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA), produced by arc melting and drop casting, was subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) using high pressure torsion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermodynamic instability of a nanocrystalline, single-phase TiZrNbHfTa alloy and its impact on the mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this article, an equiatomic, single-phase TiZrNbHfTa high-entropy alloy was subjected to high-pressure torsion, leading to a grain size below 100nm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultra-strong and damage tolerant metallic bulk materials: A lesson from nanostructured pearlitic steel wires.

TL;DR: This work uses today’s strongest metallic bulk material, namely, a nanostructured pearlitic steel wire, and measured the fracture toughness on micron-sized specimens in different crack growth directions and found an unexpected strong anisotropy in the fracture resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Annealing on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of a Nanocrystalline CrCoNi Medium-Entropy Alloy

TL;DR: An equiatomic CrCoNi medium-entropy alloy was subjected to high-pressure torsion, which led to a refinement of the microstructure to a grain size of about 50 nm, combined with a strong increase in the materials hardness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microstructure and metallic ion release of pure titanium and Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy processed by high pressure torsion

TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted to determine metallic ion release from commercially pure titanium (CPTi) and Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy processed by high pressure torsion (HPT).
