Neutron characterisation of iron meteorite fragments from Monturaqui and Waba...
Meteorite impacts are one of the most significant processes modifying planetary surfaces, where materials (e.g., rocks, sand, meteorite fragments ) are subjected to temperature... -
Looking for the elusive alpha tin phase
The characteristics of metal alloys have always been considered crucial for the sound quality of organ pipes. Tin-rich materials were studied for conservation issues, like the... -
Validation of an incremental contour method
The contour method of residual stress measurement is increasingly being applied to complex engineering components. However, errors in measured stress can be introduced if... -
High strain rate studies of twinning
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... -
Probing the interaction of hydrogen with supported gold nanoparticles
Small gold nanoparticles (1-5 nm) supported on metal oxides are extremely active catalysts for C-C coupling, aerobic oxidations and selective hydrogenations. The interaction of... -
Characterization of a relative residual strain map of an Indian sword by neutron
Historical metallurgy is one of the most interesting topics of archaeometry but, in order to achieve a good level of characterization of the artefacts studied by traditional... -
High Temperature Micromechanics Ni-based Superalloys: Creep, Stress Relaxatio...
In this study, in-situ high-temperature loading investigations will be performed to characterise the micromechanics of a high strength alloy 720Li, during stress relaxation in... -
Phase transformation stress in titanium alloys in additive manufacturing
Residual Stresses are a big challenge in 3D printing. They develop because the deposited material cools down, but it cannot shrink.One of the most widely used materials in 3D... -
Cold Sprayed Hydroxyapatite Coatings for Orthopaedic Implants
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a natural compound (Ca10 (PO4)6(OH) 2) found in human bone and clinical research has shown that HA coated orthopaedic implants improve the ingrowth and... -
Structural investigation of nano sized CeO2 and ZnO systems
We will investigate bulk and nano size ceria and zinc oxide prepared by solvothermal methods to determine the defect chemistry associated with these solids. We will use neutron... -
In situ characterisation of the process zone in high porosity graphite
Nuclear graphite, usually used as a moderator in the reactor core, is a typical quasi-brittle material. It is multi-phase, aggregated and porous. During service, neutron... -
