Mechanical characterization by multiscale indentation of dense particle reinforced Ni/Al2O3 metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNC) obtained by high-kinetic processing (HKP) of ball milling of the powders with a systematic variation of alumina nanoparticles fractions (from 1 to 20 vol.%) and spark...

Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic alloys are strategic structural materials used in nuclear fusion reactors. They are known for exhibiting enhanced mechanical properties, corrosion, and irradiation resistance, in all of which the materials’ microstructure plays a fundamental role....
