The isothermal section at 573 K of the Ni-Cu-La system was experimentally validated as well as the Mg-La-Cu system was thermodynamically evaluated. Four sample alloys in the Ni-Cu-La system were prepared and analyzed by ICP, XRD and BSE/EDS. All the experimental results were compared favorably with the calculated phase relationships. For the Mg-La-Cu ternary system, the isothermal section at 673 K was assessed on the basis of the available results in literatures, which showed a good agreement with the experimental data. Based on the thermodynamic models and parameters of the six binaries and four ternaries, the Mg-Ni-La-Cu system was finally modeled. The non-equilibrium solidification path La0.7Mg0.3Ni2.8-xCux (x=0-0.4) and the vertical section of LaNi5-Mg2Cu were calculated and analyzed from the viewpoint of hydrogen storage alloys design.

An empirical approach to the description of diffusion paths in the ternary system Fe-Co-Ni is developed. It is shown that the experimentally determined diffusion path in this system can be described by the universal function, which contains two parameters, extracted from experimental data. The values of these parameters and their possible dependence on initial compositions of diffusion couples are discussed. Using the universal function, typical diffusion paths for the system Fe-Co-Ni have been calculated. It is shown that the calculated diffusion paths are in a qualitatively good agreement with the available experimental data.

Upon non-equilibrium solidification, the intrinsic parameters, such as moving velocity, temperature, solute partition coefficient, and liquid and solid concentrations at the interface, deviate from their equilibrium characteristics, and the morphology of the as-solidified structure and the grain size are influenced by the non-equilibrium liqulid/solid transformation, which further influences the subquent solidstate transformation. Adopting molten glass purification technology combined with cycle superheating method, the microstructure evolution of Ni-11at.%Si alloy in different undercooling was investigated. It was found that, with the increase of the initial undercooling, grain refinement occurred in microstructures of undercooled Ni-11at.%Si alloy. Meanwhile, the NL model was used to discuss the two different dendrite morphologies. According to Karmas model for dendrite fragmentation, the grain refinement of undercooled Ni-11at.%Si alloy was in good agreement with the experimental data, and the grain size was reduced with the increasing ΔT. The energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) measurement was applied to analyze the solid solubility of Si atom in α-Ni matrix. It was found that the solid solubility of Si atom in α-Ni matrix increased with undercooling. At the undercooling of T>220K , a complete solute trapping occurred.

The results of experimental and analytical studies of the electrical conductivity for different solid solutions synthesized in a vicinity of LiTaO3 in the ternary system Li2O–Ta2O5–(WO3)2 are presented. It is shown that the electrical conductivity increases linearly with the Curie temperature. The experimental conductivity between 200 and 700 ºC was measured using an LCR bridge HP4192A on ceramics sintered at 1250 ºC. Within the theoretical approach to the defect structure analysis combined with our proposed vacancy models, the theoretical results are in a good agreement with the experimental data.

ABSTRACTPhase equilibria among γ-Fe, ε-Fe2Nb Laves and δ-Ni3Nb phases in Fe-Ni-Nb ternary system at 1473 K and 1373 K were experimentally examined, and also assessed by calculation in order to calculate the phase equilibria among these phases at 973 K. A ternary compound with hP24 structure with its limited composition range of Fe-21.5Nb- (56.8-59.8) Ni exists between Fe2Nb and Ni3Nb phase regions at both temperatures. Including the hP24 phase, the calculated isotherms at both temperatures are in good agreement with experimental ones. By using the optimized interaction parameters among the three elements in each phase, the isothermal section calculated at 973 K revealed a γ-Fe+ Fe2Nb + Ni3Nb three-phase coexisting region extended to Fe-rich composition of 80 at. % Fe. This suggests a possibility to develop austenitic heatresistant steels strengthened by both intermetallics phases.

RNi5-type metal hydride materials have been simulated by using a simple model. These materials have been thoroughly studied with respect to their physical and electrochemical performance. Examples of simulated P–C–T curves are drawn. The simulations demonstrate good agreement with the experimental data reported for various RNi5-type hydrogen storage materials. As expected, the plateau pressure increases with increasing temperatures. It also becomes more difficult to insert hydrogen atoms at higher temperatures, which is generally accepted to occur. Finally, limitations of the model are discussed and possible solutions to overcome these limitations are proposed.

In this paper, a thermodynamic re-assessment of the Al-Sn-Zn ternary system was performed by means of the CALculation of PHAse Diagram (CALPHAD) approach. The thermodynamic descriptions of the binary Al-Sn, Al-Zn, and Sn-Zn systems from the literature were directly adopted, and the newly reported experimental phase equilibria, enthalpies of mixing, and activities of Al in the ternary liquid phase were taken into account. A set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters for the ternary Al-Sn-Zn system were finally obtained. A comprehensive comparison between the presently calculated phase equilibria/thermodynamic properties and the experimental data indicates that the present thermodynamic descriptions of the ternary Al-Sn-Zn system show very good agreement with most of the experimental data. The further direct comparison with the calculated results due to the previous assessment demonstrates that a significant improvement was achieved by the present assessment though fewer ternary interaction parameters were utilized.

Abstract An analytical tool is presented for the prediction of the effects of changes in tread pattern design on thick film wet traction performance. Results are reported for studies in which the analysis, implemented on a digital computer, was used to determine the effect of different tread geometry features, among these being the number, width, and lateral spacing of longitudinal grooves and the angle of zigzags in longitudinal grooves, on thick film wet traction. These results are shown to be in good agreement with experimental data appearing in the literature and are used to formulate guidelines for tread groove network design practice.

In this paper we derived a new condition of formation and stability of all crystalline systems and we checked its validity andit is found to be in a good agreement with experimental data. This condition is derived directly from the quantum conditionson the free electron Fermi gas inside the crystal. The new condition relates both the volume of Fermi sphere VF andvolume of Brillouin zone VB by the valence electron concentration VEC as ;𝑽𝑭𝑽𝑩= 𝒏𝑽𝑬𝑪𝟐for all crystalline systems (wheren is the number of atoms per lattice point).
