Microstructural characterization of creep anisotropy at 673K in the M5® alloy [PDF]
Zirconium alloy tubing is used in pressurized water nuclear reactors in order to prevent fissile material from leaking into the coolant. It can be the first safety wall of nuclear fuel, and is submitted to complex thermomechanical loadings.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of as-built and heat-treated electron beam melted Ti–6Al–4V [PDF]
This paper investigates the effect of post-deposition heat treatment on porosity, microstructure, and mechanical properties of Ti–6Al–4V produced via an Electron Beam Melting process. Samples were studied in the conditions of as-built and heat treated at

Direct Evidence for Dynamic Phase Transformation during High Temperature Deformation in Ti-64 [PDF]
The microstructure of Ti-64 strongly affects the forming and in-service behaviour of aerospace components. The development of microstructure, including crystallographic texture, during thermomechanical processing involves changes caused by deformation ...

Chemical order and crystallographic texture of FePd:Cu thin alloy films
FePd thin films have been recently considered as promising material for high-density magnetic storage devices. However, it is necessary to find a proper method of fabrication for the (001)-textured and chemically well-ordered alloy.
