Analysis of twin-roll cast aluminium-steel clad strips
Křivská, Barbora ; Šlapáková, Michaela (advisor) ; Karlík, Miroslav (referee)
The microstructure, diffusion and phase transformations in aluminum-steel clad sheet were studied within the thesis by means of light optical microscopy, electron microscopy, resistometry and positron annihilation spectroscopy. Results of experimental methods were supplemented by finite element method employed for evaluation of electrical resistivity and simulation of diffusion between steel and aluminum. Several annealing experiments were carried out. The effective interdiffusion coefficient was evaluated by Boltzmann-Matano method from measured concentration profiles through the interface. Formation of an interfacial intermetallic phase was studied and orthorhombic phases Al13Fe4 and Al5Fe2 were identified present in the layer. Surprising results were obtained from the in-situ annealing in TEM (SEM) which go against the results found in a recent literature - the interfacial layer grows towards steel layer.
PHASE EVOLUTION IN Ni-48 at.% TI SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY PREPARED BY SELF-PROPAGATING HIGH-TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS

In Ni rich Ni–Ti alloys, various phases such as hexagonal Ni3Ti, cubic NiTi2 and rhombohedral Ni4Ti3 appear during heat treatment. The presence of these precipitates affects the shape memory effect and superelasticity in an important manner. In this paper we present a study of the phase evolution during annealing of the Ni–48at.%Ti shape memory alloy elaborated by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS). Morphology and crystallography of the phases were examined by means of light metallography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), neutron and X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Besides the phases mentioned in the\nliterature, a Ni-rich phase with the composition near Ni3Ti2 stoichiometry and having a cubic symmetry was found. This phase develops from Ni4Ti3 particles during slow (furnace) cooling from the temperature of 1000 °C. Its particles have the form of thin platelets coherent with the (B2) NiTi matrix. The orientation relation is either cube-to-cube, [111]P || [115]B2 and (1-10)P || (1-10)B2 or [011]P || [011]B2 and (1-10)P || (1-41)B2.\n

Jirásková, Yvonna ; Schneeweiss, Oldřich ; Blawert, C.
Surface modification of austenitic stainless steel using simultaneous implantation of carbon and nitrogen by PIII leads to significant improvement of surface hardness and wear resistance. The studies of the phase composition and microstructure is the aim of paper.
