Residual strain measurement in suspension based thermal sprayed nanostructure...
Suspension and solution precursor (SSP) spraying is an emerging thermal spraying technology which utilises liquid feedstock containing sub-micrometre and nanoparticles. Alumina... -
Validation of the asymmetric cut in the contour method.
The Contour method is a powerful residual stress measurement method, that is still under development. A limitation of the technique is that the component must be cut into two... -
Characterisation of a Fe(gamma)-Ni-Fe(alpha) Multi-material fiducial marker
The experiment involves the characterisation of a multi-material fiducial marker (MMFM) with respect to scattering intensities as a function of marker position. If this... -
