Type B and B + C serrations were incidentally observed in the load depth of indentation curves measured from BI tests, suggesting that DSA caused by the interaction of dislocations with solute atoms is the dominant mechanism in this temperature range. Notably, the modulus-compensated yield and ultimate tensile strengths were found to exhibit plateaus or even increasing trend with temperature above 673 K. Similarly, the strength coefficient and strain hardening exponent were observed to display anomalous behavior above 673 K. The DSA was further examined by varying the cross-head velocity (indenter speed) in the range 0.003-0.010 mm/s. Interestingly, negative strain rate sensitivity, which was another signature of DSA, was confirmed when the true stress decreased with increasing effective strain rate. The range of temperature of occurrence of DSA as observed from BI tests was similar to that reported from uniaxial tension test, thus signifying the applicability of BI technique to characterize the DSA behavior of materials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance","volume":"34 16","pages":"17144 - 17152"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11665-025-11432-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144896978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work has two aims; (i) to perform Quasi-static (QS) and Low-velocity impact (LVI) tests to calculate a novel predictive parameter, the Dynamic scaling factor (DSF), defined as the ratio of LVI to QS results. The DSF allows the prediction of the impact behaviour by easier and lower-cost quasi-static tests. (ii) to evaluate the feasibility of Aluminium honeycomb sandwich (AHS) as a new sustainable alternative to composite sandwich. The mechanical tests were carried out using two different tups, hemispherical and conical, and damage detection employed Non-destructive techniques (NDT), specifically x-ray digital radiography. Two ‘traditional’ composite sandwich solutions, a thinner, lighter GFRP/PVC laminate and a thicker, heavier GFRP/balsa one, were compared with two AHS panels of equivalent bending stiffness to the composite sandwiches. For the perforation of the upper face only, results indicated that AHS absorbed more energy. If the complete perforation of the whole sandwich is considered, GFRP/PVC and GFRP/balsa sandwich composites absorbed more energy. The DSF was found to be greater than or equal to unity, varying between 1 and 2, depending on laminate thickness, material, tup geometry, and damage level considered. When perforation of the first skin is important, AHS can provide a new viable high-performance lightweight alternative to ‘traditional’ composites in terms of impact strength whilst providing a more sustainable alternative. This makes AHS a valuable new material choice in marine applications that emphasises weight reduction, energy efficiency and recyclability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance","volume":"34 15","pages":"15376 - 15388"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144832096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Epoxy resin-based composites face inherent matrix limitations in tribological applications. Nanosilica (nano-SiO₂) shows promise as a nano-filler for enhancing the mechanical properties of epoxy resin, but its poor dispersibility, agglomeration tendency, and limited compatibility with epoxy present challenges. A multifaceted approach is needed to improve anti-wear and friction reduction properties while enhancing mechanical attributes. This study investigates the integration of silane-modified nano-SiO₂ and basalt flakes (BFs) as fillers in epoxy resin (EP) formulations. Various filler ratios were used to create nano-SiO₂/BFs/EP composite coatings. When basalt flakes were added at 30% and nanosilica at 5%, the resulting composite exhibited optimal friction reduction and anti-wear properties, with the coefficient of friction and wear rate decreasing by 64.3% and 56.2%, respectively, compared to pure epoxy coatings. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed enhanced interfacial adhesion among nano-SiO₂, basalt flakes, and epoxy, along with improved fracture toughness. This improvement is attributed to the participation of amine-functionalized nano-SiO₂ in the curing process of epoxy, which, when mixed with basalt flakes, reduces adhesion between the flakes, promotes better dispersion, and enhances the overall performance of the epoxy matrix. During friction and wear, the lamellar structure of the basalt flakes and the \"ball effect\" of nano-SiO₂ facilitate rolling friction, while the layered structure of wear debris provides excellent lubrication properties.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance","volume":"34 20","pages":"22931 - 22946"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145284353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Excess carbon is required to increase carburization efficiency without the use of additives. However, excessive free carbon negatively affects synthesis quality. This study investigated the effects of excess carbon on a WO₃-Mg-C system and its effective control. To verify the hypothesized carbon-loss reaction induced by the carbothermal reduction of MgO, we decreased the combustion temperature (T_C) by adding diluents with different properties, such as NaCl and excess Mg.

The experimental results indicate that the average impact toughness of the welded joints significantly increased to 66.02 J/cm² after UIT, representing a 45.39% improvement. Regular UIT significantly improved the surface quality of the samples, reducing surface roughness, enhancing surface uniformity, and effectively minimizing stress concentration, thereby inhibiting crack propagation. Additionally, by refining the surface grain size, UIT enhanced the surface hardness of the material. Observations from SEM revealed the mechanisms by which UIT strengthens and toughens the impact toughness of the welded joints, showing significant plastic deformation in the impact fracture zone, enlarged void areas, and a transformation in the fracture characteristics of the radiative zone. These changes suggest that UIT enhances the material’s resistance to crack propagation, increases energy consumption during crack growth, raises fracture stress, effectively slows down material degradation, and even achieves crack suppression.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance","volume":"34 17","pages":"18434 - 18446"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The circular solid rod, thin-walled tubular and rectangular cross-sectional Mg alloy samples will produce linear, uniform and nonuniform shear strain distributions across the cross section during torsional deformation, respectively. This will ultimately lead to linear, uniform and nonuniform microstructure distribution. Most samples are dominated by dislocation slip and extension twinning during torsional deformation. In addition to the thin-walled tubular sample made from a rolled AZ31B plate, which is twisted around the ND, the sample has a unique twinning behavior, including extension twins, compression twins, extension-compression double twins and extension-compression-extension tertiary twins. The Swift effect, a distinctive manifestation of torsional deformation, is sensitive to the torsion axis direction, texture orientation and tension-compression yield asymmetry. Whether the sample is a circular solid rod or a thin-walled tubular, if the c-axis of most grains is perpendicular to the torsion axis, the sample will undergo axial contraction during torsional deformation. Conversely, if the c-axis of most grains is parallel to the torsion axis, the sample will undergo axial elongation. In addition, the Swift effect is related to the tension-compression asymmetry. If the TYS is greater than the CYS, the sample will be shortened when twisted in that direction, and vice versa. Moreover, free-end torsion has been shown to be an effective method for reducing tension-compression yield asymmetry and increasing microhardness. Some simulation methods can accurately capture the characteristics of torsional deformation of Mg alloys, such as the Swift effect, the activation of dislocation slip, twinning deformation behavior and texture evolution. Finally, the research trends and future challenges of Mg alloys undergoing free-end torsional deformation are proposed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance","volume":"34 17","pages":"18327 - 18348"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
