• The effects and behaviour of Li and Cu alloying agents in lean Al-Mg-Si alloys 

      Mørtsell, Eva Anne; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Andersen, Sigmund Jarle; Ringdalen, Inga Gudem; Friis, Jesper; Wenner, Sigurd; Røyset, Jostein; Reiso, Oddvin; Holmestad, Randi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)
      We show how replacing a fraction of Mg with Li in a lean Al-Mg-Si alloy gives comparable strength and enhanced temperature stability. Replacing solute with smaller amounts of Cu and Li also improves thermal stability and ...
    • Structural investigation of precipitates with Cu and Zn atomic columns in Al-Mg-Si alloys by aberration-corrected HAADF-STEM 

      Saito, Takeshi; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Andersen, Sigmund Jarle; Lefebvre, Williams; Holmestad, Randi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)
      Precipitates in Al-Mg-Si alloys with Cu addition (~0.1 wt%) and Zn addition (~1 wt%) were investigated by aberration corrected high angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). Most ...
