When metals are placed under load at high temperature they usually deform over time; a process known as creep. In this experiment we will look at the creep behaviour of a type...

Flow forming is a well-developed metal forming process to produce cylinders, flanged components, shafts and gears etc. In flow forming process a hallow metal blank, a disc or a...

An EPSRC funded project has commenced in order to study the residual stress distribution of hot rolled Ti-6Al-4V alloy plate and the evolution of such stresses induced by heat...

Four sculptures from the Rijksmuseum South- and Southeast Asian collection are proposed for investigation by means of neutron diffraction to complete the characterization of...

Spray forming is a flexible materials casting technique capable of producing high value added products in the form of round billets, clad rolls and composite tubes of...

Cr-Mo steel forgings are used in oil and gas components to provide flow control and protection against over-pressure. Joining forgings to flow line requires 2 steps: Dissimilar...

Creep in polycrystalline engineering alloys occurs differently along different crystalline orientations. This is because external loading distributes lattice strains...

Neutron transmission has been able to produce 2D residual strain maps around cold expanded holes with high resolution, but limited to measurement of the axial strain direction....

Quantifying the relationship between stress-strain and fracture is important to the perfection of fracture capability if it is to be used as a tool for guiding failure...

To improve the railway networks, track components with greater durability are essential. To this end, we clad a layer of premium material on railhead to reduce wear and the...

Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) process is rapidly moving towards the production and qualification of large structural parts. Parts built by WAAM for structural...

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...

In view of advances in texture research at pulsed neutron sources, we propose that ISIS participates in a 'Texture Round Robin' to benchmark the existing texture analysis...

The aim of this experiment is to characterise the effect of a low-transformation temperature (LTT) welding alloy on the residual stresses of multi-pass, full-penetration welds....

In nuclear reactors such as pressurized water reactors (PWR), heavy section components, manufactured using low alloy steels, are connected to stainless steel piping systems...

Haynes 282 is a novel Ni-base superalloy, combining excellent weldability and general processability with moderate cost. As such, it is very promising for e.g. industrial gas...

To improve the railway networks, track components with greater durability are essential. To this end, we clad a layer of premium material on railhead to reduce wear and the...

Transformation Induced-Plasticity (TRIP) phenomenon has been intensively studied to developnew steel products with the optimal combination of formability and strength. However,...

Fibre Laser Beam Welding (FLBW) is a relatively new technology that has many advantages over other welding techniques. An understanding of the residual stress and...
