Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Environment on Microstructure Evolution and Friction of Au–Ni Multilayers

TL;DR: In this paper, Cihan et al. present results from a systematic investigation of environmental effects on the frictional behavior of Au-Ni multilayer films of varying interlayer spacing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Additive manufacturing of high-strength multiphase nanostructures in the binary Ni–Nb system for the discovery of new types of superalloys

TL;DR: In this paper, the additive manufacturing-enabled investigations of composition-dependent mechanical and micro-structural properties for Ni-Nb binary alloys are presented, where the authors report on the mechanical behavior of compositionally-graded NixNb1−x and uniform composition Ni59.5Nb40.5 specimens made with AM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Friction of Metals: A Review of Microstructural Evolution and Nanoscale Phenomena in Shearing Contacts

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the links between mechanisms of strengthening, deformation, and the wide range of friction behaviors that are exhibited by shearing metal interfaces and found that grain boundary sliding and the breakdown of Hall-Petch strengthening at the shearing interface are generally and predictably explain the low friction of these materials.

Wear-Resistant Nanocrystalline Hard Noble Metal Coating

TL;DR: In this article, a new class of electrically conductive, wear resistant, and high thermal stability nanocrystalline noble metal coatings achieved by codeposition of an insoluble, unreactive, and thermally stable, grain boundary segregated ceramic species that strengthened the base metal by inhibiting grain boundary mobility and recrystallization during deposition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanochemically driven formation of protective carbon films from ethanol environment

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of temperature and contact pressure on film formation on Pt-Au alloys during sliding in an ethanol environment has been demonstrated by Raman and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analyses.
