Performance of europium in microstructural modification of high strength lightweight aluminum components

Even though all rare-earth elements are within the atomic radii range of Impurity Induced Twinning Model, Europium (Eu) is the only one capable to fully modify the plate like eutectic silicon into fine fibrous morphology. Nevertheless, quantitative information on the microstructural features and mec...
