Uncovering the tension-compression asymmetry of low stacking fault FCC alloys...
A certain type of alloys, with face-centered-cubic (FCC) structure and medium to low stacking fault energies (SFE), can trigger the formation of multiple twins (mechanical... -
Determination of the bondlength of the surface hydride in PdH
Supported palladium particles are used as catalysts in many processes. In the course of investigation of Pd-based catalysts used for the selective hydrogenation of nitro-arenes... -
Microstrain evolution of multilayered Ti/X (X=Zr, Nb) composites under the ef...
The mechanical properties of multilayered metallic composites are determined by strain/stress partitioning between the constituent metals. However, the effect of strain on the... -
Isotopic Characterisation of Pore Surface Chemistry in Monolithic MCM-41 Subs...
Porous materials impregnated with metal nanoparticles are extremely useful in catalysis, an industry that had a global turnover in 2010 of over three trillion dollars.... -
Deforming TWIP steels at cryogenic temperatures
Dense mechanical twins and phase transformation are the most attractive athermal transformation processes since they can endow alloys with significant strength enhancement as... -
Comparison Phase-object approximation and dynamical scattering theory
X-ray, electron and neutron scattering techniques have been used for the structural characterization of surfaces and embedded morphologies. Several theories have been developed...
