Summary: A new ultra-high strength maraging stainless steel with a unique combination of intermetallic precipitates has been developed, enabling its ultimate tensile strength to reach 3.15 GPa with balanced ductility and uniform elongation. Maximizing the austenite content before cold-rolling and ageing treatments is crucial to achieve such high strength without sacrificing uniform elongation. Precipitation hardening is significantly enhanced by the net-like sigma phase during tensile deformation, peaking at an ageing temperature of 525 degrees C for 3.5 hours.

Summary: A novel Co/Mo free martensitic steel with nano-sized 8-NiAl precipitates has been developed for additive manufacturing, achieving ultra-high strength and low cost while maintaining formability. The fabricated steel exhibited a tensile strength of over 1400 MPa and 16% elongation, the highest reported for as-built AM materials to date. Heat-treatment resulted in the formation of nanoscale ordered 8-NiAl precipitates, improving the strength to over 2000 MPa and elongation up to -8% at room temperature.

Summary: A hybrid in-situ/ex-situ reinforced aluminum matrix composite is proposed to overcome the strength-ductility trade-off dilemma. The uniform dispersion of reinforcements and strong reinforcement-matrix interfacial bonding are achieved. The in-situ/ex-situ reinforcing leads to simultaneous enhancement in strength and total elongation, benefiting from the uniform dispersion and the strong semicoherent interface with the matrix.

Summary: A lightweight, laminated carbon steel/6061 aluminum composite was designed and manufactured using cold roll bonding. The sample annealed at 400 degrees C for 90 min showed optimal tensile strength (619 MPa) and ductility (16.1% elongation), with a strength-to-weight ratio of 96.7 and density of 6.4 g/cm(3). Comparatively, there was a 22% increase in strength-to-weight ratio and an 18% decrease in density as compared to commercial low-carbon steel.

Summary: This study investigates the plastic deformation behavior and fracture mechanism of bimetal laminated composites (BLCs) through experiments and mathematical calculations. The results show that the thickness ratio has a significant impact on the mechanical behavior of BLCs, and the interface strengthens the yield strength and flow stress of the composites. The plastic deformation of Cu/1010 steel BLCs changes from Cu-dominated to 1010 steel-dominated as the volume fraction of Cu decreases, leading to a decrease in plastic instability strain (PIS). The PIS calculated using the accumulated damage method is closer to the experimental results.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanical properties of thin-walled maraging steel elements fabricated by direct metal laser sintering (DMLS). The article describes the fabrication procedure and analyzes the results of static tensile strength tests and SEM examinations. The study concludes that the mechanical properties of these objects are not affected by build direction but are largely dependent on thickness.

Summary: Core/shell structured FeSiAl/MoO3 soft magnetic composites were fabricated using a two-step heat treatment process. The effects of ammonium molybdate (AHM) content and annealing temperature on the properties of the composites were investigated. The results showed that the electrical resistivity and mechanical properties of the composites can be regulated by controlling the AHM content. The optimal content of 15 wt% AHM resulted in the highest crushing strength and lowest core loss.

Summary: This paper investigates the prediction of laminate strength, considering various factors. The constitutive relation of each lamina in the laminate is described by the Bridging Model. Methods for stress calculation and failure detection for the fiber and matrix are proposed. The failure of the laminate is assessed using physics and mechanics-based criteria. The analytical formulas used in the analysis provide accurate predictions that align well with experimental data.

Summary: In this study, laminated Mg/Zr composites were fabricated by hot rolling-induced bonding. The results showed that a greater rolling reduction was needed to achieve a well-bonded interface for Mg/Mg and Mg/Zr composites. The Mg/Zr composite exhibited higher strength and bonding strength compared to Mg/Mg composites.

Summary: The rising awareness of noise pollution is driving efforts to develop new sound-absorbing materials. The development of an ultrathin Zr-MOF/PVA/M composite with exceptional sound attenuation characteristics is reported. The composite showed over double the sound attenuation compared to the pristine melamine foam, making it highly suitable for noise reduction applications in construction, electrical, and mechanical devices.

Summary: A 12Mn maraging steel with nanoscale heterostructures was designed, strengthened by the Heusler Fe2TiSi phase. During aging at 450°C, fine Fe2TiSi particles uniformly precipitated within the martensite lath as the main strengthening phase. Simultaneously, a nanoscale austenite layer grew at the lath interface, significantly toughening the martensite lath matrix. This hierarchical nano-structure resulted in a super-high tensile strength of -1700 MPa with good elongation of -7% at break, demonstrating the synergistic improvement of strength and ductility.
