Seminar Eric Jägle: Alloys for Additive Manufacturing, Alloys by Additive Manufacturing

  Dr. Eric Jägle (Max Planck Institute of Metal Research in Düsseldorf, Germany)   As Additive Manufacturing technologies are being adopted in more and more industries, the focus of research and development is shifting to the materials in use. On the one hand, limited processability of high-performance materials restrict the robustness of the process in some cases, while in other cases the best materials for a given application cannot be processed at all. There is a strong need to modify…

Seminar Dr. Isaac Toda-Caraballo: An overview on the designing High Entropy Alloys

Dr. Isaac Toda-Caraballo: Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy. University of Cambridge (UK) Within the last two decades, a new type of material has been increasingly explored. Widely known as High Entropy Alloys (HEAs), they contrast with most of the existing metallic materials in which they do not contain a major element, such as steels, aluminium alloys or magnesium alloys. Their original definition assumes 5 or more different elements, with composition between 5% and 35% of atomic content, displaying a…
