In our paper ‘Towards an ecosystem service-based method to quantify the filtration services of mussels under chemical exposure’...

We propose a continuation of the determine the bronze composition of the different parts of three Renaissance Bronzes. These bronzes are of mutiple parts which have been joined...

Dissimilar metal weld (DMW) joints are widely used in nuclear power plants to connect ferritic steel components with austenitic steel piping systems. AREVA has designed a new...

Welds in safety critical applications are subject to structural integrity assessments where residual stress plays a key part. Because residual stress predictions are unreliable,...

Recent work on self assembling monolayers with diisocyano linkages have shown their great potential for application to photovoltaics. The next step is to determine the...

Novel cathode materials for rechargeable batteries have been under intense investigation since high cost and toxicity of current Li-ion batteries. We propose to study the...

The aim of this proposal, which is part of a PhD project, is to investigate ordering of In and Sn in the solid solution Co3Sn2-xInxS2 (0<=x<=2). All members of this family...

The intermetallic family R5T4 (R = rare earth, T = Si or Ge) exhibit a wide range of magnetic phenomena (eg., magnetic order, GMR, and enhanced magnetocaloric effect) which are...

We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes....

We propose to determine the bronze composition of the different parts of two Renaissance Bronzes. These bronzes are of mutiple parts which have been joined together. Added by...

We have developed a new class of ferritic steels strengthened by hierarchical precipitates (HPs) of Ni2TiAl/NiAl or a single precipitate (SP) Ni2TiAl for applications as...

The goal of this proposal is to measure the diffuse scattering in Beta-Ti Gum Metal. We have measured the phonon dispersion curves and have found several soft-phonon anomalies...

In the proposed experiments we aim to characterise the structures of aggregate species formed when divalent metal ions, such as calcium(II), interact with the anionic conjugated...

Stress corrosion cracking is an important degradation mechanism that is threatening the structural integrity of pressurised water reactors throughout the world. Dissimilar weld...

Previous uSR measurements on chemically produced graphene showed that, apart from a slowly relaxing graphite-like fraction, approximately 40% of the implanted muons are trapped...

Neutron Resonance Capture Analysis (NRCA). NRCA is a valid and effective experimental tool for the elemental analysis of objects (e.g. the metallic ones), especially those of...

We ask for 3 days on TOSCA to conduct Inelastic Neutron Spectroscopy on Na encapsulated in silica gel materials (Na-SG) and for in situ formation of Na-amide encapsulated in...

Perovskite oxides exhibit a large array of interesting electronic properties. Owing to their difficult synthesis (requiring extremely high pressures) the MOsO3 Osmates offer a...
