1. Microstructural design and optimization of Nickel-based superalloys for gas turbines
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : One of the main sources of energy in this modern world is the gas turbine. They reach extremely high working temperatures at peak capacity and hence require materials that can withstand the same. READ MORE

2. Environmental Barrier Coatings to protect Ceramic Matrix Composites in next-generation jet engines
University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskapAbstract : Gas turbine engine efficiency needs to be raised in order to decrease fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and expenses. Efficiency may be improved in two ways: by reducing engine weight and raising intake temperatures. READ MORE

3. Ab inito calculation of the formation energy of the sigma phases at 1000 Kelvin : With a five sublattice model for the ternary Iron-Chromium-Nickel system
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : This project investigates the σ-phase formation energy at 1000 Kelvin using Exact Muffin TIn Orbital (EMTO) method and considers the disordered local moment approach to handle the paramagnetism in a self-consistent manner. The sigma phase is detrimental and causes embrittlement when it occurs primarily in stainless steel and superalloys with Iron (Fe) and Chromium (Cr), which is why it is necessary to understand it better and therefore avoid it.

4. Electrochemical corrosion analysis of nickel-based superalloys
University essay from KTH/Yt- och korrosionsvetenskapAbstract : Elektrokemisk korrosionsanalys av legeringar är en essentiell del av den större materialanalysen som måste utföras när en legerings lämplighet för en viss applikation evalueras. Nickelbaserade legeringar är kända för sin utmärkta korrosionsresistans, och de Ni-Cr-Mo-baserade legeringarna 59, 625, och 718 är också så kallade superlegeringar. READ MORE

5. Combined CALPHAD and Machine Learning for Property Modelling
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : Techniques to improve the speed at which materials are researched and developed has been conducted by investigating the machine learning methodology. These techniques offer solutions to connect the length scales of material prop- erties from atomistic and chemical features using materials databases generated from collected data. READ MORE
