Influence of grain boundary character distribution on sensitization and intergranular corrosion of alloy 600

TL;DR: In this article, the potential impact of grain boundary design and control on the bulk sensitization and intergranular corrosion resistance of a commercial corrosion resistant nickel-based austenitic alloy: Alloy 600 (UNS N06600) was assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrodeposited nanocrystals: Synthesis, properties and industrial applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of nanostructured electrodeposits such as hardness, wear resistance and electrical resistivity are strongly affected by grain size, while properties such as thermal expansion, Young's modulus and saturation magnetization show little grain size dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of grain size on mechanical properties of nanocrystalline materials

TL;DR: In this article, the possibility of a dislocation mechanism in the deformation process of nanocrystalline materials is reviewed and analyzed, by taking the anisotropic characteristic of crystallographic symmetry and different choices of critical shear strength into account, results in a reasonable limit in grain size for applying dislocation pile-up theory to nanocrystine materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deviations from hall-petch behaviour in as-prepared nanocrystalline nickel

TL;DR: Inoue et al. this paper proposed a new method to solve the problem of the "missing link" problem in this paper, which they called the "hidden link problem".
Journal ArticleDOI

Room temperature creep behavior of nanocrystalline nickel produced by an electrodeposition technique

TL;DR: In this article, the results of unidirectional tensile tests were discussed with respect to the deviation from the Hall-Petch relationship for nanocrystalline (6-40 nm) nickel produced by an electrodeposition technique.
