1. Theoretical investigation of α-iron chromium carbide (α-Fe/Cr7C3) interfaces
University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap och tillämpad matematik (MTM)Abstract : This master thesis presents a theoretical investigation of the energy and stability of interfaces in iron-carbide compounds, specifically focusing on the α-Fe/Cr7C3 system. The study aims to fill the gap in knowledge regarding the surface energetics of these interfaces using Density Functional Theory (DFT). READ MORE

2. Effect of post-treatment of cemented carbide : Microstructural investigation and evaluation of mechanical properties of cemented carbide inserts for rock tool applications
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknikAbstract : Cemented carbides are used in rock tool applications by reason of their beneficial mechanical properties, i.e. a combination of high toughness, wear resistance and hardness. The cemented carbides commonly receive their hardness from tungsten carbides (WC) whereas cobalt (Co) is the dominating binder material. READ MORE

3. Mechanical properties of SiC nanowires with polytypes
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : In this report, we model the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of SiC nanowires with different polytypes using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The mechanical properties investigated are the Young’s modulus, the maximum tensile stress and the fracture strain. The three polytype tested are SiC (3C), (2H) and (4H). READ MORE

5. Ageing tests of cemented carbide powders : An investigation for increased quality of metal cutting inserts
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskapAbstract : In this study, the ageing effects on powder used for cemented carbide insert production are examined. Ageing is throughout this study, defined as the time dependent change of the magnetic properties: coercive field strength and saturation magnetization. READ MORE
