Mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of hot extruded Mg-2.5Zn-1Ca alloy
Dexue Liu,Dexue Liu,Chenggong Guo,Liqiang Chai,Vincent R. Sherman,Xiaoqiong Qin,Yutian Ding,Marc A. Meyers +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it is demonstrated that the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Mg-2.5%Zn-1.1%Ca alloy are enhanced by the microstructural changes imparted by hot extrusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Densification of Reaction‐Synthesized Titanium Carbide by High‐Velocity Forging
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel process for the manufacture of dense titanium carbide is described, where reaction synthesis is performed by the reaction synthesis method, while densification and near-net shaping is accomplished by a high-velocity forging step.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model for elastic precursor waves in the shock loading of polycrystalline metals
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the rise times of elastic waves in polycrystalline metals is developed, which incorporates the following parameters: anisotropy of wave velocity, scattering by grain boundaries, mode conversion and deflection due to anisotropic of adjacent grains, dislocation effects, and intrinsic wave rise time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation of the mechanical and structural properties of cortical rachis keratin of rectrices of the Toco Toucan (Ramphastos toco).
TL;DR: Mechanical characterization of the cortex of rectrices (tail feathers) of the Toco Toucan has been carried out by tensile testing of the rachis cortex in order to systematically determine Young's modulus and maximum tensile strength gradients on the surfaces and along the length of the feather.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic compaction of titanium aluminides by explosively generated shock waves: Experimental and materials systems
TL;DR: In this article, two basic compositions of the titanium aluminide powders produced by the Rapid Solidification Rate (RSR) technique were used: Ti-21 wt pct Nb-14 wt Pct Al, and Ti-30.9 wt npct Al-14.2 wt Nb.
