Abstract
To apply the leak-before-break (LBB) concept to the main steam line piping of nuclear power plants, the use of SA508 Gr.1A low-alloy steel is being considered. To increase the LBB safety margin, it is essential to improve the strength and toughness of the material. In this study, intercritical heat treatment..... More

Abstract
7xxx series aluminum alloys possess extremely high cold working yield strength, which make hot working processes essential for component manufacturing. Preheating specimens before or between hot rolling processes significantly affects the mechanical properties of the hot rolled Al alloy sheets, depending on the preheating temperature and time. In this study,..... More

Abstract
Fe-based amorphous alloys are promising structural materials that have a disordered lattice structure and metastable state. Due to their advanced properties, including high hardness, high elastic limit, improved wear and corrosion resistance, Fe-based amorphous alloys have a great potential for protective materials in harsh industrial fields. Twin wire arc spray..... More

Abstract
We employed electrophoretic deposition (EPD) using AC voltage to prepare lithium iron phosphate (LFP) Li-ion battery electrodes with varying the LFP thickness, to compare bulk-limited electro chemical reaction with the surface-limited electrochemical reactions. We analyzed the electrochemical performances of the thin and thick LFP electrodes at various scan rates. They..... More

Abstract

Abstract
Mn, Zn, Ni-substituted Z-type hexaferrites, Sr₃Co₂Fe₂₄O₄₁ (Sr₃Co₂Fe_24-xMn_xO₄₁, Sr₃Co_2-yZn_yFe₂₄O₄₁, Sr₃Co_1-zNi_zZnFe₂₄O₄₁), were prepared by sol-gel synthesis processes and their high-frequency magnetic, dielectric and electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption characteristics were investigated. Substituting Mn for Fe by x = 0.5 maintained the single-phase Z phase while shifting the μ' , μ″ spectra towards lower..... More

Abstract
Aluminum-Zinc-Magnesium (Al-Zn-Mg) alloys are extensively utilized in aerospace and automotive industries because of their exceptional mechanical properties and light weight. These properties of Al-Zn-Mg alloys are significantly influenced by the morphology, distribution, and size of the precipitates within the alloy, which result from the formation of numerous nanoscale precipitates. Among..... More

Abstract
This study investigates the influence of {10–12} twins on the aging behavior of an extruded Mg–8Al–0.5Zn (AZ80) alloy during aging at 150 °C. The extruded AZ80 alloy is subjected to a compressive strain of 6% along the transverse direction and is subsequently aged at 150 °C. The sample with {10–12}..... More
