Microstructural analysis and evaluation OF W and W/W2C composites for fusion application

Author(s): Andreja Šestan (Author), Miran Čeh (Supervisor), Saša Novak Krmpotič (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2023

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Fusion technology has a great potential to safely provide an inexhaustible quantity of electricity without producing greenhouse gases and minimal hazardous waste compared to conventional energy sources, such as nuclear power plants. For materials intended for fusion plasma-facing applications, the essential properties are structural stability at elevated temperature, adequate thermal …

Mechanisms and Effect of Deep Cryogenic Treatment on Steel Properties

Author(s): Patricia Jovičević Klug (Author), Bojan Podgornik (Supervisor)

Year: 2022

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) is a type of cryogenic treatment, during which a material is subjected to temperatures below −160 °C. When a metallic material is modified with DCT, changes occur down to the nanoscopic level. DCT induces microstructural changes such as grain size refinement, formation of new grains, movement …
