In-Situ Measurement of the Evolution of Residual Stress During the Post-Weld ...
Reduced-pressure electron beam (RPEB) welding is an advanced welding technique being considered for Gen III and Gen IV nuclear piping and pressure vessel applications. RPEB... -
Mapping of microstructural anisotropy of cementite in a sword bearing the "La...
Our long-term aim is a detailed study of the forging procedures to produce high quality steel arms and armour in different parts of the world. It is our intention to investigate... -
The Effect of Neutron Irradiation on the Mechanical Properties of Nuclear Gra...
The material to be studied is nuclear graphite used in the core of the Gas-cooled Reactors in the UK. It is a non-replaceable component and therefore life-limiting. During... -
In situ crystalline CTE measurements of nuclear graphite as a function of loa...
Graphite bricks are both the moderator and structural components at the heart of the Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) cores. Internal stress arises from the moderation role of... -
Neutron scattering of sandstone subjected to uniaxial compression in cryogeni...
The exploitation of unconventional remote geological resources, such as those in Arctic formations, requires engineering designs that withstand the temperatures and pressures... -
Deformation behaviour of gamma double prime strengthened nickel-based superal...
Inconel 718 alloys are widely used in industry. However, deformation behaviour of the different phases in the alloys during plastic deformation under loading has not been...
