Metal additive manufacturing processes, such as laser beam melting (LBM), can play a key role in developing antenna-feed chains because monolithic and multifunctional parts can be manufactured with high geometric freedom ...

Strain localization is an important plastic instability process occurring prior to fracture. It is usually observed in the form of narrow bands of intense plastic shear strain in deformed bodies undergoing severe inhomogeneous ...

A method coupling experiments and simulations, is developed to characterize the yield stress and strain hardening of several metals loaded at 10⁶ s−ⁱ and < 25 ns, typically involved during Laser Shock Peening. It was applied ...

In this article, the aging behavior of nuclear-grade low voltage cables, characterized by different geometries and insulation compositions, is investigated. Cables were subjected to radio-chemical aging at different dose ...
