Mishra, V. (author), Ayas, C. (author), Langelaar, Matthijs (author)In metal Additive Manufacturing (AM), the deposited material is subjected to a series of heating and cooling cycles. The locally occurring temperature extremes and cooling rates determine solid-state phase fractions, material microstructure, texture, and ultimately the local material properties. As the shape of a part determines the local...journal article 2023

Poliotti, M. (author), Yang, Y. (author), De Boer, Ane (author)In old Dutch inner cities like Amsterdam a large number of steel-concrete bridge decks built between 1880 and 1960 remain in service nowadays and currently need assessment of their bearing capacity. A significant number of these decks were designed without any mechanical connectors like shear studs in the interface between concrete and steel....conference paper 2023

Marques Pereira, V. (author)An approach to improve the performance of steels for fusion and fission reactors is to reinforce them with oxide nanoparticles. These can hinder dislocation and grain boundary movement and trap radiation-induced defects, thus increasing creep and radiation damage resistance. Steels containing these oxide particles are called ODS steels (Oxide...doctoral thesis 2022

Ioannidou, C. (author)The focus of the present work is on the micro-alloying element vanadium, which is well known for providing precipitation strengthening to steels and which has, therefore, attracted a lot of interest the last decades. Vanadium carbide precipitation can take place in the migrating austenite/ferrite interface during the austenite-to-ferrite phase...doctoral thesis 2022

Masaylo, Dmitriy (author), Igoshin, Sergei (author), Popovich, Anatoly (author), Orlov, Alexey (author), Kim, Artem (author), Popovich, V. (author)Metal additive manufacturing (AM) by Laser-Directed Energy Deposition (L-DED) usually results in the formation of textured columnar grains along the build direction, leading to anisotropic mechanical properties. This can negatively affect the intended application of the product. Anisotropy can be eliminated by modifying the material through an...journal article 2022

(author)The role of prior austenite grain size (PAGS) on the passive layer properties of martensitic steels is studied. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows that PAGS between 5 and 66 µm were obtained after applying different heat treatments. The barrier properties of passive film deteriorate with grain refinement up to 28 µm, attributed to...journal article 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Xie, Jiale (author), Fan, Zheng (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Connolly, David P. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author)The properties of railway ballast material are affected by the local geologies and climatic environments from which the parent rock is sourced. These factors can make it challenging to select the most appropriate material for railway applications. To address this issue, this paper first reviews the means of ballast selection in complex...review 2022

Schaper, Lukas (author), Tankova, T. (author), da Silva, Luís Simões (author), Knobloch, Markus (author)Residual stresses have considerable effect on both the local and the member stability behaviour of steel structures. Previous studies have shown that the structural stability behaviour depends on both the distribution and the amplitude of the residual stresses. The residual stress distribution is affected by the cross-section geometry, the...journal article 2022
