Design of a dual-phase hcp-bcc high entropy alloy strengthened by ω nanoprecipitates in the Sc-Ti-Zr-Hf-Re system

High entropy alloys (HEAs) in the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase usually show poor mechanical properties. We demonstrate here, by use of ab initio simulations and detailed experimental investigations, that the mechanical properties can be improved by optimizing the microstructure. In particular...
