Compressibility and fugacity of gaseous hydrogen

The concept of fugacity is explained. Application of compressibility and fugacity data in hydrogen embrittlement calculations is discussed. Equations of state are reviewed. Compressibility factors and fugacity coefficients are calculated. A best estimate is proposed.

Coarsening and solutioning of precipitates in superalloys

Coarsening and solutioning of the main strengthening phase for the majority of superalloys, the y' phase, are discussed. It is shown that a general prediction of coarsening rates and solutioning temperatures is possible.

TEM "in situ" straining and bulk studies of the selection of glide systems in f.c.c. single crystals

Plastic deformation of f.c.c. single crystals was studied by means of straining experiments inside a transmission electron microscope on Cu foils and some related bulk straining experiments on Cu and Al single crystals. In the foils and bulk crystals with the same orientation of the normal to the large face the same non-primary glide...
