Modeling of Effect of Alloying Elements on Radiation Damage in Metallic Alloys
… dynamics simulations were conducted to study the alloying element effects on the primary damage in Fe-based alloys, including defect production and dislocation loop transformations, and their connections with defect thermodynamics. First, effects of alloying elements on the primary damage in three …

Effects of alloying elements upon austenite decomposition in high strength low alloy steels
… was explained by synergistic interactions among alloying elements. The paraequilibrium model was applied to calculate the metastable fraction of ferrite in each alloy. This fraction was shown to coincide with cessation of transformation in the Mo alloy transformed at 600°C. Transformation stasis …

The role of alloying elements on the microstructure and thermal stability of Refractory Metal High Entropy Superalloys
… understanding of the contributions of different elements to RSA microstructures, through the systematic study of constituent systems, which will aid the design of future RSAs. The nanoscale microstructures in RSAs are believed to form due to the miscibility gaps between the refractory metals and …

Design of Lightweight Magnesium Alloys: Processing, Microstructure and Properties
… these weaknesses has largely focused on costly alloying elements. Elements such as thorium and yttrium have provided excellent improvements to magnesium, but are prohibitively expensive and not commercially viable. The objective of this work was to investigate the e ects of commercially feasible …
