Our neutron study using MARI/MERLIN on Ce(Ru1-xFex) 2Al10 reveals very interesting magnetic excitations and a manuscript is ready to submit to PRB. In x=0 (TN=27 K) a...

Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) is a rapid and cost effective approach that is suited to the production of large components. Machining of these parts is difficult due to...

This proposal supports development of multi-physics finite-element model of the performance of a metal-hydride hydrogen storage tank. While simple to use, a massive...

Gene delivery vehicles, known as LPD complexes, prepared from mixing cationic lipid vesicles (L) with cationic peptide (P) and DNA (D) have proven to be very effective at...

Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as...

Laser cladding is a process that improve the mehcanical properties of metal.It works by fusing a thin layer of additional metal to the original surface.However,tensile residual...

We propose a high-pressure powder neutron diffraction study of the simple donor-acceptor complexes (C5D5N)...ICl and (C5D5N)...IBr . These are the simplest structurally...

Dynamics of multicomponent mixtures such as polymer blends are typically studied with QENS and deuterium labelling. Difficulties arise in the data analysis if the coherent...

A new family of FeAs superconductors have very recently (Autumn 2008) been discovered in which, rather than alternating rare earth oxide layers with FeAs layers (as for the new...

This experiment will investigate the relationship between microstructure and macro-scale mechanical properties of an additive manufactured nickel-based superalloy. We will use...

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...

Previous studies have suggested that a high-pressure form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX can be obtained above ~4 GPa and 488 K. This phase is reported to be...

The growth in both global demand for energy and fossil-fuel related environmental issues drive research on alternative fuel sources. Solid oxide fuel cells, which can operate on...

The mechanical behaviour of porous granular rocks is highly complex due to the fact that they exhibit a multiscale interaction of three different phases: grains, cement and...

Spin ladders represent a class of low-dimensional quantum magnets that occupy a regime of subtle behaviour which lies between the stark extremes of the one-dimensional chain or...

TWIP (TWinning-Induced Plasticity) steels are a class of Mn-containing steels that display excellent elongation to fracture even at high strain rates, making them very...

In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of...

Neutron spin resonance mode is a common feature in different classes of magnetic superconductors; nonetheless, the microscopic origin of the mode is still unclear. In general,...

To facilitate Remote Maintenance (RM) of demonstration fusion plant, the RM teams at Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE) utilise lasers to join EUROFER97 components....

Zirconia is a brittle ceramic whose usefulness is negated by phase transformations which are accompanied by strains and the consequent stresses lead to cracking. The addition of...
