Residual stresses in components are an important issue in most manufacturing processes, as they influence the performance of the final part. Regarding hot forming processes there is a great potential of defining a targeted ...

Typical gabbroic rocks from dike–gabbro transitions of fast-spreading systems are the so-called “varitextured gabbros”, often showing considerable variations in mineral mode, texture and grain size, which are regarded as ...

The present work deals with adjusting a fine-grained microstructure in iron-rich iron-aluminium alloys using the ECAP-process (Equal Channel Angular Pressing). Due to the limited formability of Fe-Al alloys with increased ...

Hot forming as a coupled thermo-mechanical process comprises of numerous material phenomena with a corresponding impact on the material behavior during and after the forming process. Within the subsequent heat treatment, ...

We analyse rovibrational transitions of the (2)2Σ+-X(1)2Σ+ system of LiSr and find the energy levels of the (2)2Σ+ state to be perturbed by coupling between the (2)2Σ+ and (1)2Π states. We present an analysis of the coupled ...
