In this study, the deformation behaviors and related microstructural evolutions were investigated in either monotonic or cyclic deformation modes in an interstitial metastable high-entropy alloy. These investigations aimed to reveal the mechanisms underlying the superior low-cycle fatigue (LCF) life of this alloy. A thermomechanical process was app...

We report the sediment features of the 2018 Palu tsunami in Indonesia based on the results of laboratory analysis. The mechanism for generating the 2018 Palu tsunami was a combination of an earthquake and a landslide, and several previous studies classified the tsunami as having a shorter wavelength and period. The characteristics of the deposits o...
Mg-Al-Zn-Ca-Y alloys with excellent ignition and corrosion resistances-termed SEN alloys (where the letters "S," "E," and "N" stand for stainless, environmentally friendly, and non-flammable, respectively)- have been developed recently. In this study, the microstructure, tensile properties, and high-cycle fatigue properties of an extruded Mg-9.0Al-...
© 2021 Elsevier LtdWe report the mechanical and microstructural characteristics of a medium-entropy alloy, Co17.5Cr12.5Fe55Ni10Mo5 (atomic percent, at%) at cryogenic temperatures, down to a record low temperature of 0.5 K. The alloy exhibits excellent strength and ductility combined with a high strain-hardening rate in the entire temperature range ...
A breakthrough in the strength and ductility trade-off is crucial for the development of advanced metallic materials. Herein, we present a novel heterostructured composite composed of immiscible magnesium (Mg) and ferrochrome (FeCr) with a 3D interconnected morphology and synthesized by liquid metal dealloying. Soft Mg and hard FeCr zones mutually ...
To investigate mercury (Hg) sources responsible for contamination at Gumu Creek in South Korea, Hg concentration (THg) and Hg isotope ratios were measured in the soil and sediment of Gumu Creek and the samples from a hazardous waste landfill (HWL). The THg ranged between 0.29–327 mg kg−1 and 9.5–414 mg kg−1 in the soil and sediment, respectively, r...
The use of multibeam echosounder systems (MBES) for detailed seafloor mapping is increasing at a fast pace. Due to their design, enabling continuous high-density measurements and the coregistration of seafloor’s depth and reflectivity, MBES has become a fundamental instrument in the advancing field of acoustic seafloor classification (ASC). With th...
Quantitative reconstruction of palaeohydrology from fluvial stratigraphy provides sophisticated insights into the response, and relative impact, of tectonic and climatic drivers on ancient fluvial landscapes. Here, field measurements and a suite of quantitative approaches are used to develop a four-dimensional (space and time) reconstruction of pal...
The current investigation presents a breakdown analysis of the elastoplastic behavior of commercially pure aluminum pre-strained via severe plastic deformation (SPD) and tested in tension. The tensile samples selected, owing to their prior SPD, had the gradient microstructure from the fragmentation stage as well as a homogeneous equiaxed structure ...
