This product profile explores the features and applications of the HTME-1000 module - Alemnis EBSD Heating Stage.

High-pressure torsion (HPT) is an effective severe plastic deformation method to produce ultrafine-grained (UFG) and nanocrystalline (NC) materials. In the past, most studies have focused on the evolutions in the microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of HPT-deformed materials at peripheral regions. The corresponding evolutions at a special area were observed in this study to reveal the potential plastic deformation mechanism for face-centred cubic (FCC) material with high stacking fa...

Different annealing treatments at 400-900 °C for 1 h were applied on copper/SS304L composite sheets, and the evolutions of microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated in this study. It is found that the diffusion distance of the elements at the interface is slightly increased with the increasing temperature. In addition, the grain coarsening in copper, the phase transformation from BCC to FCC in SS304L, and the decreased dislocation density after annealing soften the composite sh...

About the Presentation In this talk, which was delivered at the TMS Light Metals Division Awards Ceremony & Special Lecture at TMS2021 Virtual, Easton discussed challenges to the processes of near net shape manufacturing and how some of the themes of this research can travel from one manufacturing technology to the next. Materials Processing & Manufacturing Division Presenter: Co-Author: Tanner Kirk, Texas A&M University About the Presentation How big is the available feasible alloy space in...
