Microstructural and nano-mechanical characterisation of in-situ formed, ti-base multicomponent composites with a nanocrystalline matrix

Multicomponent, Ti-based, in situ formed composites with a nanocrystalline matrix are a promising new type of material for structural applications. The materials exhibit an excellent combination of mechanical properties resulting from the composite microstructure. This paper contains a detailed intr...

Description
Summary:Multicomponent, Ti-based, in situ formed composites with a nanocrystalline matrix are a promising new type of material for structural applications. The materials exhibit an excellent combination of mechanical properties resulting from the composite microstructure. This paper contains a detailed introduction to such materials and a review of the most recent developments in the specific areas of microstructural and nano-mechanical characterization.
