Computer modeling of high-entropy alloys
Papež, Pavel ; Jan, Vít (referee) ; Zelený, Martin (advisor)
This Master’s thesis is focused on theoretical study of the high entropy alloy CoCrNi using ab initio calculations. The focus was on the effect of short range order on the relative stability of FCC and HCP structures and the value of stacking fault energy.The results show increase of stability in both types of structures wtih decreasing number of Cr-Cr nearest neighbours. The effect of the number of Cr-Cr nearest neighbours on the stacking fault energy previously shown in literature was not observed. However the strong dependency was found on the change of short range order caused by the shift of (1 1 1) planes after the transformation from the FCC to HCP structure. The effect of interstitial atoms C a N was also studied. Both these interstitials stabilise FCC structure and thus cause the increase of stacking fault energy. Both interstitials prefer octahedral positions with higher amount of Cr in their nearest neighbour shell.

Nitride dispersion strengthened Cantor´s high entropy alloys
Havlíček, Štěpán-Adam ; Moravčík, Igor (referee) ; Hadraba, Hynek (advisor)
High Entropy Alloy (HEA) is a class of construction steels based on the mixing of five or more elements in approximately equimolar ratios. Despite the ambiguity of their future use, HEAs represent a significantly new group of construction materials that are currently receiving a great deal of attention. Single-phase HEAs fail when used at elevated tempera-tures. The improvement of their high-temperature resistance was achieved by introducing a dispersion of oxides Al2O3 and Y2O3. To generalize the positive effect of dispersions on the mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, particles of a similar nature were cho-sen. These were dispersed particles of nitrides: hardness-incompatible AlN and hardness-compatible BN. The particles were evenly distributed inside the alloys by mechanical al-loying and compacted by SPS (Spark Plasma Sintering). The new structural alloy reached a density higher than 96.5 % and brought an increase in yield strength at room tempera-ture of up to 67 % and 40 % at elevated temperatures, while maintaining a homogeneous distribution of input powders.
