The stress-time relation and energy-time relation for different nickel nanowires were studied under uniaxial deformation of tension. The stress-strain diagrams were obtained by the method of molecular dynamics (MD). Simulation of the tensile specimens of these Ni nanowires showed a rapid increase in stress up to a maximum followed by a gradual drop to zero when the specimen fails by ductile fracture. The stress-strain curve under extension loading and plastic deformation was studied. The maximum stress and strain at maximum stress had the same value for different Ni nanowires.
An in situ synchrotron study of the specific features of the phase formation dynamics in mechanically activated 16 wt% Al + Ti powder composition is described, the high-temperature synthesis being carried out under the condition of high volume inflammation by means of inductive heating. The kinetics of the phase formation were registered with an experimental complex, especially designed, constructed and adjusted for the method of dynamic diffraction analysis in synchrotron radiation beams. It has been experimentally in situ shown that increasing the time of mechanical activation of the initial powder mixture reduces the temperature at which components start to react and the time of realization of the high-temperature synthesis. With the latter set at 1 min of mechanical activation, the temperature of the reaction in the mixture is T = 603°C; at 3 min of mechanical activation, T = 442°C; and at 7 min, T = 359°C. The maximum burning temperatures are: for 1 min of mechanical activation, T
max = 1080°C; for 3 min, T
max = 1003°C; and for 7 min, T
max = 820°C. It was found that formation of both stable compounds Ti3Al, TiAl3, TiAl2, TiAl and metastable phases Ti9Al23, Ti5Al11, Ti2Al5, Ti3Al5 occurs at the stage of primary structure formation, before the system goes to thermal explosion. High-temperature synthesis of a mixture of the studied composition takes place without formation of a liquid phase, in the solid-phase combustion mode. It was found that the increase in the time of mechanical activation of the initial powder mixture contributes to the formation of a product with a dominant content of intermetallic compound Ti3Al. By synthesis of the powder mixture of composition 16 wt% Al + Ti, mechanically activated for 7 min, the content of Ti3Al in the final product was found to be 68%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
