Abstract: Alloys with increased configurational entropy are new group of materials with very broad range of possible properties, but their application potential is currently limited because of complicated and inefficient manufacturing processes used mainly on laboratory scale. Paper presents the results of preliminary research aimed on manufacturing castings made of medium entropy alloys (MEA) by industry scale casting technologies. [..] Read more

Abstract: The issues which appears at fusion welding of 6082 T6 aluminum alloy are connected with hot cracking (solidification and liquation crackings), porosity and over aging of a portion from heat-affected zone (HAZ). Relatively high thermal expansion and the wide range solidification temperature of the Al alloy are the main causes of susceptibility to welding cracking. [..] Read more
