Where a material can plastically deform by more than one mechanism, the relative extent to which the various mechanisms operate often depends on the strain rate. Most metals...

A full-sized section of 304-stainless steel pipe with a non-stress relieved girth-butt weld has been obtained from a Pressurised Water Reactor. This project will accurately map...

We propose to develop the means to measure the orientations, phases and strains of individual crystal grains within a polycrystal using neutrons. Such measurements have...

For some engineering purposes like welding or SCC where IGS (Inter Granular Stresses) increase susceptibility to cracking, some indicator of the level of plastic deformation...

Reduced Activation Ferritic-Martensitic steels (RAFMs) are the primary candidate structural material for the FDS series LiPb blankets for fusion reactors, in particular the Dual...
