Mechanisms of phase transformations within the miscibility gap of Fe-rich Fe-Al alloys

TL;DR: The coherent phase diagram of the Fe-Al system possesses a tricritical point where a line of higher-order transitions ends at a miscibility gap at about 23 at.% Al and 615°C.

Configurational Thermodynamics of Solid Solutions

TL;DR: In this article, a review of theoretical models applicable to concentrated solid solutions is presented, focusing on concentrated solutions because dilute ones can be considered as special cases and because the interesting effects of clustering and ordering are most apparent at high solute concentrations.

First-principles calculation of structural energetics of Al-TM (TM = Ti, Zr, Hf) intermetallics

TL;DR: In this article, the total energies and equilibrium cohesive properties of 69 intermetallics in the Al-TM (TM = Ti, Zr and Hf) systems are calculated from first-principles employing electronic density-functional theory, ultrasoft pseudopotentials and the generalized gradient approximation.

The structure and properties of age hardened Cu-Ti alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, electron microscopy and diffraction have been employed to study the microstructural behavior of age hardening Cu-Ti alloys and the results have been correlated with the mechanical properties.

On spinodal decomposition in cubic crystals

TL;DR: In this paper, the anisotropy of all factors influencing the mechanism of spinodal decomposition was considered for crystals of cubic symmetry, and it was shown that elastic aeolotropy should give rise to {100} plane waves if 2 C 44 − C 11 + C 12 > 0 or {111} plane wave if 2C 44 − c 11 + c 12

On the modulated structure of aged Ni-Al alloys: with an Appendix On the elastic interaction between inclusions by J. D. Eshelby

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that there exists an elastic interaction between the Ni-6.71 wt.% Al alloy particles arising from the difference between the elastic moduli in the precipitate and the matrix.

Early stages of spinodal decomposition in an aluminum-zinc alloy

TL;DR: In this article, a small-angle X-ray scattering study has been made of isothermal decomposition in an Al-Zn alloy containing 22 at.% Zn, and the changes in the Xray spectra in the early stages of the decomposition at 65°C were in accord with the theory of spinodal decomposition proposed by J.W. Cahn.

Structure and properties of spinodally decomposed Cu-Ni-Fe alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, the structural spinodal decomposition and accompanying changes in properties of a 51.5 Cu-33.5 Ni-15.0 Fe alloy after solution treatment and fast quenching were investigated.

Diffraction contrast from elastic shear strains due to coherent phases

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the appearance of striations parallel to the traces of the 110 planes in the microstructure and relrods normal to these planes in diffraction patterns is a strain contrast effect arising from elastic shear strains induced by conditions of tetragonal coherency in agreement with a model proposed by Tyapkin.
