Tungsten and tantalum are neighbors in the Periodic Table of the Elements and, as refractory metals, both have very high melting points (tungsten: 3422oC, tantalum: 2996oC). However, the ductility of the two metals is quite different especially at...

Metallic glass was rst reported in 1960 by rapid quenching of Au-Si alloys. But, due to the size limitation, this material did not attract remarkable interest until the development of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) with specimen sizes in excess of 1...

High performance, light weight alloys are need-of-the particularly in the defense, automotive and aerospace sectors. Magnesium is a prime candidate since it is the lightest structural metal having a mass density of 1.74g/cm3 and is the sixth most ...

In this dissertation, two topic areas related to adiabatic shear banding (ASB) phenomenon were studied. Body centered cubic (BCC) metals and alloys may exhibit ASB under uniaxial high strain rate compression if the grain size is refined into the u...
