Summary: The precipitation and transformation of carbides during tempering of high-temperature solution-treated 7Cr14 martensitic stainless steel were investigated. M3C and M23C6 carbides precipitated during tempering, with activation energies of 120 ± 7 and 272 ± 13 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The precipitation of M3C and M23C6 carbides was primarily controlled by C and Cr atomic diffusion, respectively.

Summary: Interactions between slip bands and interfaces in a compressed duplex stainless steel were investigated in this study. It was found that grain boundaries and phase boundaries play important roles in plastic deformation, with twin GBs/PBs showing higher probability of slip transmission and lower probability of slip blockage compared to general GBs/PBs. Loading orientation has a minor effect on SB-GB interactions, but a pronounced effect on SB-PB interactions.

Summary: This study investigated the phase transformations of 5Cr-0.5Mo.0.1C steel after heat treatment through experimental and numerical analysis. The results showed that tempering promoted the precipitation of carbides, while aging resulted in the dominance of M23C6. The decrease in steel hardness was attributed to bainite transformation and the diffusion-controlled coarsening of M23C6 carbide.

Summary: Increasing the austenitizing temperature results in higher carbide dissolution and retained austenite, leading to lower passivation and reactivation currents. When austenite is the main phase after tempering, increasing the austenitizing time contributes to higher sensitization due to austenite grain boundary carbon enrichment. However, the presence of austenite after tempering retains some of the carbon in a solid solution, resulting in lower passivation and reactivation currents.

Summary: Superaustenitic stainless steels are widely used in industry for their strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance. However, the behavior of superaustenitic stainless steel weld metals is not well understood, limiting their use in certain welding applications. This study shows that post-weld heat treatment can significantly change the microstructure and corrosion properties of weld metals deposited by the GMAW process. The presence of sigma-phase along the grain boundaries is the main cause for the decrease in corrosion resistance.

Summary: The study investigated the hardening of AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel sheets using continuous-wave laser beams under different conditions, including double laser treatment, linear energy density, and shielding gas effects on microstructure and hardness. Tensile behavior and oxidation effects during treatment were also studied, showing significant improvements in mechanical behaviors driven by the formation of martensite and chromium carbides despite poor carbon content and grain coarsening. These findings provide insights for locally modifying medium chrome ferritic stainless steel to meet industrial requirements.

Summary: This paper investigates the precipitation of chromium carbides in austenitic stainless steels at high temperatures, leading to intergranular chromium depletion along grain boundaries. A reduced-order model of acoustic nonlinearity is proposed to explain the phenomenon, with a direct relationship observed between the radius of M23C6 grain boundary carbides and the non-linear ultrasound parameter beta. The model was validated through experimental observations and measurements, providing insights into the behavior of these alloys during isothermal aging.

Summary: In this study, N-type and P-type BiTe-based thin films were deposited on silicon, glass, and Kapton HN polyimide foil using magnetron sputtering technique. The morphology, microstructure, and phase constituents of the thin films were characterized by SEM/EDX, XRD, and TEM. The electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and Seebeck coefficient were measured by an advanced in-plane test system. The power output (open-circuit voltage and electric current) of the thin films was measured at different temperature gradients using a custom-built apparatus. The impact of deposition parameters and the dimensions of the thin films on the power output were investigated to optimize the thin-film flexible TE device for thermal energy harvesting.

Summary: This work investigates the formation of adjoining twin pairs (ATPs) at grain boundaries (GBs) in hexagonal close-packed (hcp) metals, focusing on the co-nucleation (CN) of pairs of deformation twins. A continuum defect mechanics model is proposed to study the energetic feasibility of CN of ATPs resulting from GB dislocation dissociation. The model reveals that CN is preferred over the nucleation of a single twin variant for low misorientation angle GBs. Further analysis considering GB character and twin system alignment suggests that CN events could be responsible for ATP formation even at low m' values.

Summary: This study investigates the behavior of electric-field induced antiferroelectric to ferroelectric (AFE-FE) phase transition and reveals the evolution of atomic displacement ordering as the cause for the transition behavior changing from sharp to diffuse. The novel semi-ordered configuration results from the competing interaction between long-range displacement modulation and compositional inhomogeneity, which leads to a diffuse AFE-FE transition while maintaining the switching field.

Summary: In this work, a physics-constrained neural network is used to predict grain-level responses in FCC material by incorporating crystal plasticity theory. The key feature, shear strain rate of slip system, is identified based on crystal plasticity and incorporated into the loss function as physical constitutive equations. The introduction of physics constraints accelerates the convergence of the neural network model and improves prediction accuracy, especially for small-scale datasets. Transfer learning is performed to capture complex in-plane deformation of crystals with any initial orientations, including cyclic loading and arbitrary non-monotonic loading.

Summary: This study attempts to address the gap in cooling rates between thin film deposition and bulk metallic glass (BMG) casting by correlating the glass-forming range (GFR) determined from combinatorial materials chips (CMCs) with the glass-forming ability (GFA) of BMG. The results show that the full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) is a good indicator of BMG GFA, and strong positive correlations between FWHM and the critical casting diameter (Dmax) are observed in various BMG systems. Furthermore, the Pearson correlation coefficients suggest possible similarities in the GFA natures of certain BMG pairs.
