The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly is an important structural signature associated with a wide range of technological...

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...

We request 9 days on TOSCA to carry out inelastic neutron scattering (INS) studies of the adsorption, activation and reaction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (lignin models)...

Spin vortices are most appealing characteristics of two dimensional 2D easy-plane spin systems which are receiving recent attention for their fundamental properties and possible...

Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported bilayer films. In this proposal we...

This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants and conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE...

Rcently the NFL behaviour near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point (AFQCP) has been investigated extensively. Very recently, we have investigated, for the first time,...

To date many papers have been published on the effects of impurities on the physical properties of ionic liquids (near room-temperature molten salts), however, only few studies...

The mechanical properties of multilayered metallic composites are determined by strain/stress partitioning between the constituent metals. However, the effect of strain on the...

The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at surfaces and interfaces from self-assembly in mixed surfactant and in polymer / surfactant mixtures are being increasingly...

Dense mechanical twins and phase transformation are the most attractive athermal transformation processes since they can endow alloys with significant strength enhancement as...
