A feasibility study of creep stress relaxation with elastic follow up
Creep in polycrystalline engineering alloys occurs differently along different crystalline orientations. This is because external loading distributes lattice strains... -
Effect of Phosphatidylserine lipids on Tissue Factor structure and function i...
Tissue Factor (TF) is the membrane protein responsible for the initiation of the blood coagulation process [1]. In case of a vessel injury, the TF is exposed to the blood stream... -
Investigating proton motion in battery and hydrogen storage materials
Our research team have an ongoing project investigating ion diffusion processes in solid electrolyte and hydrogen storage materials. In terms of the former, we have been... -
Neutron Total Scattering Investigation of Temperature Driven Transitions in L...
This proposal is concerned with determining the local structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well characterised temperature driven... -
The effect of γ′ particle size on the γ/γ′ load tr...
The aim of this experiment is to measure the load transfer between the matrix and the precipitates in an advanced nickel¿base superalloy as a function of particle size... -
Pressure effect on stable and metastable structural phases in geometrically f...
Geometrically frustrated antiferromagnet LuBaCo4O7 exhibits unusual competition between two low-temperature phases with orthorhombic and monoclinic symmetry. Depending on... -
Biological membrane mimics made of deuterated lipids extracted from E. coli
Biological membrane mimics are a bottle neck in biophysical studies today. The need to develop advanced models that actually represent the properties of specific cellular... -
Interaction of Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) with Model Mammalian Cell Membr...
Atherosclerosis and subsequent clinical complication is one of the biggest killers in the western world, with a death toll reaching 16.7 million deaths per year. Although many... -
Seizing Membrane Proteins - Cytochrome P450 Reductase in Nanodiscs
This proposal seeks to shed light on the functional and structural characteristics of a specific membrane protein - cytochrome P450 reductase (abb. POR) - part of the cytochrome... -
Test of an array of new thermal and resonance neutron detectors
The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal... -
Identifying fractionalized magnetic excitations in the triangular spin-liquid...
The experimental identification of quantum spin liquids (QSL) in real materials has been one of the challenging and fundamental goals in condensed matter physics. The newly... -
Spin relaxation of short-lived spin-labelled radicals in solution
The spin relaxation rates of free radicals in solution can provide valuable information about the dynamics of molecular tumbling in solution, and solvent-radical interactions.... -

Water diffusion in small peptide based supramolecular materials
Supramolecular materials, especially supramolecular gels, have gained increasing importance in material science due to the ease of modification of these materials through... -
SANS studies of the micellar structure of C12-L-Carnitine and C14-L-Carnitine...
Acyl L-Carnitines are a group of novel surfactants with attractive physical and biological properties associated with their head group charge features. This work proposes to use... -
Characterization of texture of bronze standards through Bragg edge diffractio...
The Bragg edge transmission technique (BET) is a diffraction method exploiting the edges appearing in the transmitted neutron spectra crossing polycrystalline materials and is... -
Surface composition in the physical developer process for latent fingerprint ...
Physical developer (PD) is a latent fingerprint development technique that is highly effective on paper and related surfaces, notably banknotes. The process exploits a redox... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
Investigation of the microstructure of dipeptide hydrogels
The properties of gels formed from the self-assembly of small molecules depend on the properties of the fibres into which the molecules have assembled as well as the number and...
