Towards reliable residual stress characterization in dissimilar metal welds
The proposed experiment forms a part of a joint study by M. Rahman, an ILL PhD thesis student, and J. Brokx, a CDT thesis student supported by ISIS. In the proposed experiment,... -
Assessment of variant selection in a novel martensitic stainless steel filler...
Recently a new martensitic filler material has been designed and made, which has good mechanical properties as well as corrosion resistance. This alloy also exhibits a low... -
In Situ Torsional Testing to study hkl strains and phase transformation in TR...
No diffraction studies have specifically aimed to study the (hkl) specific strain in polycrystals under the application of pure shear. A technique is proposed that has been... -
Influence of multiaxial cyclic loading on residual stress stability in high-s...
In welded joints subjected to multiaxial fatigue, it is of interest to determine both the time to crack initiation and propagation to understand what controls fatigue life of... -
EBSD, DIC and Neutron Diffraction to characterise phase transformation and pl...
Martensitic transformations are solid-state transformations on completion of which a hard phase having very high dislocation density is obtained. Despite often being an... -

The aim of this work is to characterise the residual stresses in the longitudinal, transverse ans short transverse directions for 11 welds in 6.5mm thick HSLA-65 (ferritic) and... -
Interactions between Designed Antimicrobial Lipopeptides and Inner Membrane L...
Neutron reflection will be used to reveal the structural changes from different inner membrane leaflet models upon interacting with a group of antimicrobial lipopeptides with... -
Development of Creep Cavitation in Stainless Steel
Reheat cracking is a creep failure mode that has been observed in welded structures operating at high temperatures in the power generation industry. The failure results from the... -
In-situ and simultaneous SANS and ND to study the precipitation and phase tra...
Nano-steels are a new generation of Advanced High-Strength Steels, which are used in the automotive industry to reduce vehicle weight and thereby improve the fuel economy and/or... -
Effect of PWHT on Lattice Parameters of a Dissimilar Metal Butt Weld
Stress corrosion cracking is an important degradation mechanism that is threatening the structural integrity of pressurised water reactors throughout the world. Dissimilar weld... -
Residual Strain Scanning of Medieval double-edged sword from the Royal Armouries
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -
Residual stress measurement of mooring chains using neutron diffraction (Resu...
High rate of failure of mooring chains used in the offshore industry necessitates improved understanding of phenomena correlated to the fatigue life of these chains. Although... -
Selective Laser Melting Induced Residual Stress in a Nickel-based Superalloy
Nickel-based superalloy is widely used in aerospace engine components for its excellent high-temperature performance. Because of the difficulty in producing superalloy... -
Pre-Strain Effects on Intergranular Stresses and Subsequent Deformation
The proposal aims to examine how introducing 8% plastic strain in 316H steel through precompression, influences the intergranular strains in the material when loaded parallel... -
Neutron diffraction analysis of a failed 1400s wrought iron tie rod from Mila...
We propose to deeply investigate one metallic (iron based) failed tie-rod sample, from Duomo di Milano (Italy). The tie-rod, a typical iron strengthening element in gothic... -
