Summary: The fatigue crack initiation life of 99.99% pure aluminum single crystals is influenced by crystal orientation and not solely controlled by the primary slip system. The second, third, and fourth slip systems also have an impact. Fatigue damage formation is accelerated when the Schmid factor is equal on both the primary and critical slip planes, but is restrained as the Schmid factor on the conjugate slip plane increases. X-ray micro-beam back reflection Laue observation reveals the significant development of subgrain structure. The configuration of crystallographic fatigue damage depends on crystal orientation, with the secondary slip system playing a crucial role. The total misorientation observed at the fatigue crack initiation is independent of crystal orientation and shear stress amplitude, indicating that the crack initiates when the dislocation density at the subgrain boundary reaches a certain value.

Summary: The Laue method allows fast pattern acquisition, but its use in structural studies is limited by data processing complexity. This paper describes measures to improve the effectiveness of indexing software, including adjusting Laue spot positions, enlarging the set of cells tested, and eliminating solutions representing superlattices. These measures can increase the chances of obtaining correct indexing solutions and can be implemented to create fully automatic software for ab initio indexing of Laue patterns.

Summary: This study investigates the corrosion resistance of Sn coatings electrodeposited at different temperatures on mild steel. Results show that the Sn3 coating fabricated at 70 degrees C exhibits the highest corrosion resistance, while the coating fabricated at 80 degrees C performs the worst. The correlation between coating texture and electrochemical properties is identified, with an increase in low angle grain boundaries affecting the corrosion resistance of the coatings.

Summary: In this study, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) was used to track sub-grain lattice structure in Li(Ni-0.33 Mn-0.33 Co-0.33)O-2 (NMC-111) cathode material. The results show that electrode-scale spatial heterogeneity in lattice structure is induced by initial manufacturing conditions. Radial gradients in lattice misorientation evolve at the primary particle scale with repeated electrochemical cycling.

Summary: The study found a noticeable compressive deviatoric stress at the anode of Sn strips, particularly in the roots of Sn whiskers, confirming that electromigration-induced atomic accumulation occurred downstream in a strip and that Sn whiskering was closely related to internal stress resulting from atomic accumulation in confined segments.

Summary: In order to achieve optimal depth resolution for a coded-aperture Laue diffraction microscope, knowing the accurate position of the coded-aperture and its scanning geometry is crucial. This paper proposes an optimization approach to automate the focusing process after data collection, as trial and error methods are time-consuming and challenging. The proposed approach's robustness and efficiency are demonstrated through experimental data taken at a synchrotron facility.

Summary: In this paper, the beam splitting characteristics of Laue crystal are analyzed based on X-ray diffraction dynamics, and the influences of crystal absorption and incident light angular divergence on transmission and diffraction are simulated. The results show that the kinematical theory of X-ray diffraction is not sufficient to analyze the beam splitting characteristics of the crystal. The interaction between wave fields in the crystal and the Pendell.sung effect in the dynamical theory of X-ray diffraction need to be considered to explain the change of the crystal beam-splitting ratio quantitatively.

Summary: An optimized method was proposed to identify activated slip directions based on intragranular misorientation axes (IGMA) analysis using electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) data. The method was successfully applied to determine prismatic and basal slip systems in Mg alloys. The results demonstrated that this method is simpler and more efficient compared to other widely utilized methods.

Summary: Recent advances in nanofabrication and coherent hard X-ray sources have enabled high-resolution X-ray microscopy using large numerical aperture optics for small focal spot sizes. Multilayer optics like multilayer Laue lenses and zone plates have achieved sub-10 nm and sub-5 nm focal spot sizes. However, their extreme aspect ratio presents challenges for kinematic theory and numerical simulation, hindering further progress in design and utilization. Finite-difference propagation method shows promise for accurately simulating X-ray wavefields within multilayer optics and exploring diffraction effects for achieving small focal spot sizes and high diffraction efficiency.

Summary: This study investigates local deformation in a dual-phase Ti6242 alloy by examining the interaction between alpha orientation and the presence of beta phase, as well as the evolution of stored dislocations. The research shows that the phase boundary plays a significant role in modulating the local dislocation-based hardening and local stress states within the polycrystalline Ti aggregate.

Summary: The effects of grain size, grain boundary type, and misorientation on the initiation of discontinuous precipitates in a Cue5Ni e1.25Si alloy are investigated in this study. It is found that smaller grain sizes result in a higher percentage of discontinuous precipitates. Only random grain boundaries are capable of initiating discontinuous precipitates, while coincident site lattice boundaries are not. There is also a difference in the initiation of discontinuous precipitates depending on the misorientation axis.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of fabrication methods on the high-temperature steam oxidation performance of C26M alloys. The results indicate that different fabrication methods do not significantly affect the mass change of the alloys after steam exposure. FeCrAl alloys exhibit excellent resilience to high-temperature steam in nuclear reactor accident scenarios regardless of the fabrication method.
