Description
Summary:Fractal dimension of a microstructural feature is a measure of its geometric complexity, morphological characteristics and irregularities in configurations. The experimental measurements of fractal dimensions of a novel-flaky microstructure, comprising the crystals with hierarchical 3D nanolayered α/β-Zr networks in Zr-2.5Nb alloy have been performed and correlated with its corresponding mechanical properties as a function of annealing temperature. Image texture analysis has also been performed to understand the stored-energy and thermal stability of these α/β-Zr networks. The invasive fractal-character and chaos of these networks have been convincingly revealed. [Display omitted]
