Precipitation and strengthening modeling for disk-shaped particles in aluminum alloys: Size distribution considered

Considering the ADF STEM image in figure 5a, in which the precipitate has likely been sheared by a sin- gle dislocation close to the specimen surface (and possibly more times

condition. HAADF STEM images of precipitates from the three investigated alloys. The precipitates chosen are typical for the respective alloy and shows that the addition of Ge and

The effects of quench rate after solution heat treatment in combination with 1% pre-deformation on precipitation hardening in three Al-Mg-Si alloys have been investigated by

We have measured the hardness evolution during artificial aging of a base Al–Mg–Si alloy with 0.0019, 0.0060 and 0.0727 at.% Ca additions and studied the materials using TEM and

A detailed high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy study shows that most of the needle-shaped hardening precipitates β" (~82%)

We have shed light on some important findings regarding the muon trapping in the materials and its interpretation in terms of (sub-)nanometer- sized defect content. In particular,

In precipitates in Al-Mg-Si and Al-Mg-Cu, columns identified with larger Mg atoms generally are surrounded by five columns for both planes, columns of Si and Cu atoms show a

Magnesium and silicon additions significantly change the precipitation behavior and kinetics in Al-Cu alloys, and hybrid structures consisting of diverse phases
