Fatigue crack paths and properties in A356-T6 aluminum alloy microstructurally modified by friction stir processing under different conditions by A. Tajiri, Y. Uematsu, T. Kakiuchi, Y. Suzuki

“…In this study, friction stir processing (FSP) was applied to A356-T6, in which rotating tool with probe and shoulder was plunged into the material and travels along the longitudinal direction to induce severe plastic deformation, resulting in the modification of microstructure. Two different processing conditions with low and high tool rotational speeds were tried and subsequently fully reversed fatigue tests were performed to investigate the effect of processing conditions on the crack initiation and propagation behavior. …”

Rheological, mechanical, and microstructural properties of engineered geopolymer composite (EGC) made with ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash by Xinhua Cai, Jinjing Yin, Xian Xu, Duo Zhang, Yamin Wang

“…Ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash (FA) were used as precursors to prepare Engineered Geopolymer Composite (EGC) based on the binary binder system, and the effects of GGBFS content and curing time on the mechanical properties as well as the microstructure were investigated. Results showed that the increase of GGBFS content enhanced the yield stress and plastic viscosity of the fresh EGC mixtures, manifesting a more noticeable shear thickening behavior. …”
