    Investigations into the Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Fe3C Compound: A Comprehensive Analysis

    By Purushotham Endla, Endla AkhilBalaji

    Abstract: Exploration of mechanical properties of Fe3C powder using Williamson-Hall analysis by using Mechanical alloying technique. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the lattice strain (LS) and nanocrystalline size (CS) in an Fe3C produced from powder using the Mechanical Alloying Method (MAM). By the repeated mechanical crushing, the LS created by MAM is expected to decrease while the CS is anticipated to reduce the particle size. To accomplish …

    Exploring the Impact of Lattice Strain on the Debye-Waller Factor in Iron Nanoparticles: A Comprehensive Analysis

    By Purushotham Endla, Endla Akhil Balaji

    Abstract: This study systematically investigates the influence of lattice strain and particle size in iron powder produced through milling, employing X-ray powder diffraction. The determination of lattice strain (ε) and the Debye-Waller factor (B) is accomplished by analyzing Bragg reflection half-widths and integrated intensities. Significantly, the Debye-Waller factor exhibited a notable increase with lattice strain. By establishing a correlation between stress and the influential Debye-Waller factor, we derived a precise relationship …
