Plastic deformation and joining processes have emerged as innovative solutions for connecting tubes in a variety of industrial applications. These methods utilise controlled plastic strain, rather ...

Microforming is a specialised branch of advanced manufacturing that involves the controlled plastic deformation of metals at the micro‐scale. With the ongoing miniaturisation in industries ranging ...

An international research team led by scientists from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has recently discovered that high-entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit exceptional mechanical properties at ...

Research has shown that face-centered cubic (fcc) composites with high-density and nanoscale deformation twins can greatly improve the balance of ductility and strength. Still, the microscopic ...

Researchers investigated the effects of grain size and temperature on the deformation of commercially pure titanium at extremely low temperatures. Titanium (Ti), often hailed as the wonder metal for ...

Because of their very large molecular weight (~ 10 6) polymers behave differently from the low molecular weight metals during plastic deformation leading to a ductile fracture. The top diagram shows a ...

An international research team has recently discovered that high-entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit exceptional mechanical properties at ultra-low temperatures due to the coexistence of multiple ...
