• Detailed investigation of the shearing mechanism of β" precipitates in Al-Mg-Si alloys 

      Christiansen, Emil; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Ringdalen, Inga Gudem; Bjørge, Ruben; Holmedal, Bjørn; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Holmestad, Randi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The mechanism behind shearing of β'' precipitates in Al-Mg-Si alloys during deformation is investigated by applying advanced transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques and frozen phonon multislice TEM image simulations ...
    • Lattice rotations in precipitate free zones in an Al-Mg-Si alloy 

      Christiansen, Emil; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Marthinsen, Knut; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Holmestad, Randi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Scanning precession electron diffraction and automated crystal orientation mapping in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) have been applied to quantitatively study the crystal orientation of precipitate free zones ...
    • Nano-scale characterisation of sheared β” precipitates in a deformed Al-Mg-Si alloy 

      Christiansen, Emil; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Holmedal, Bjørn; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Holmestad, Randi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      This paper compares the nano-scale structure of β” precipitates in a peak-aged Al-Mg-Si alloy before and after deformation. Three complementary advanced transmission electron microscopy techniques are used to reveal the ...
    • Work-hardening and ductility of artificially aged AA6060 aluminium alloy 

      Westermann, Ida; Pedersen, Ketill Olav; Børvik, Tore; Hopperstad, Odd Sture (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The work-hardening and ductility of an artificially aged AA6060 aluminium alloy were studied based on tensile tests of smooth and notched cylindrical samples. The alloy was tested after three processing steps, each followed ...
