V-Cr-Ti alloys have been proposed as candidate structural materials in fusion reactor blanket concepts with operation temperatures greater than that for reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels (RAFMs).
The lack of real-time insights into how materials evolve during laser powder bed fusion has limited the adoption by inhibiting part qualification. The developed approach provides key data needed to fabricate born qualified parts.
A novel method that prevents detachment of an optical fiber from a metal/alloy tube and allows strain measurement up to higher temperatures, about 800 C has been developed. Standard commercial adhesives typically only survive up to about 400 C.
A new nanostructured bainitic steel with accelerated kinetics for bainite formation at 200 C was designed using a coupled CALPHAD, machine learning, and data mining approach.
Faults in the power grid cause many problems that can result in catastrophic failures. Real-time fault detection in the power grid system is crucial to sustain the power systems' reliability, stability, and quality.
With the ever-growing reliance on batteries, the need for the chemicals and materials to produce these batteries is also growing accordingly. One area of critical concern is the need for high quality graphite to ensure adequate energy storage capacity and battery stability.
Test facilities to evaluate materials compatibility in hydrogen are abundant for high pressure and low temperature (<100C).
Water heaters and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems collectively consume about 58% of home energy use.
A bonded carbon fiber monolith was made using a coal-based pitch precursor without a binder.
This work seeks to alter the interface condition through thermal history modification, deposition energy density, and interface surface preparation to prevent interface cracking.
