Abstract: Type 316FR stainless steel is a candidate material for the Japanese demonstration fast breeder reactor plant to be built in Japan early in the next century. Like type 316L(N), it is a ...

Abstract: A perspective on emergent phase formation is presented using an interdisciplinary approach gained by working at the “interface” between diverse application areas, including solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and ionic membrane ...

Abstract: An analysis of previously reported elevated-temperature fatigue with hold time data supplemented by a metallographic examination of the 2 1/4 Cr-1Mo alloy steel specimens is reported. The tests ...

Abstract: The high voltage cathode material, LiMn1.6Ni0.4O4, was prepared by a polymer-assisted method. The novelty of this work is the substitution of Ni with Mn, which already exists in the crystal structure instead of other ...

Abstract: Results are reported for a number of load and strain controlled fatigue tests conducted over the temperature range of room temperature to 1000°F (538°C). Cyclic hardening and softening ...

Abstract: A wide variation in creep-rupture and long-term creep properties of 20 heats of type 304 and seven heats of type 316 stainless steel was observed. The observed variation in 1000-hr creep-rupture ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional pole-to-pole numerical model with background solstitial winds has been used to study the global dynamical response of the thermosphere to high-latitude energy inputs associated with a model geomagnetic ...

Abstract: A technique to achieve stable and uniform uniaxial compression is offered for creep testing of advanced ceramic materials at elevated temperatures, using an innovative self-aligning load-train ...

Abstract: Tensile deformation and rupture behavior were simulated using a viscoplastic model developed recently. The model was formulated based on the state variable approach, which provides flexibility and ...
