Incommensurate-commensurate phase transitions in K2SeO4
Materials with incommensurate structures often show exotic properties (such as charge density waves). The development of reliable and efficient refinement techniques for such... -
Development of internal strains during compression of Al-Si alloy Al-7Si-0.4Mg
This proposal follows on from our successful experiment on ENGIN-X lin 2006, where we measured the development of strains in the aluminium and silicon phases of a common casting... -
Micelle curvature effects on polyelectrolyte-surfactant film structures
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant thin films which form at the air-solution interface. Our previous work investigated structure... -
Structural development during crystallisation of synthetic polymers
We wish to exploit the unique capability of Nimrod to move forward the long standing issue of the way in which long chain polymers crystallise. There are two key length scales:... -
The Interaction of Ammonia with Binary and Ternary Deuterides;
The interaction of ammonia with binary hydrides (prototypically, the interaction of LiH with ammonia gas) is thought to be the predominant interaction for hydrogen production... -
Copy of: Continued development of high resolution Bragg edge time of flight t...
We propose to conduct experiments to further the technological and scientific development of micro-channel plate neutron detection systems for high spatial and time-of-flight... -
Residual stress development due to electron beam welding of aerospace compres...
Electron beam (EB) welding is a well-established and frequently used joining method within the aerospace industry. A numerical model, using a commercial weld-simulation package... -
Influence of yttrium on temperature dependence of internal strain development...
This experiment is part of a broader programme studying the effects of alloying on the properties of magnesium alloys with the aim of improving formability and reducing... -
Designing polymer therapeutics to diffuse through mucin
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key... -
Oxygen Vacancy Clusters in Pure and Doped CeO2-d
Oxide ceramics based on ceria, CeO2, have been the subject of considerable research for the role of solid electrolyte within solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), since their ionic... -
The effect of heat treatment temperature on the texture development of the hi...
The aim of this experiment is to measure in-situ the high temperature beta phase in a Ti and Zr alloy in order to relate the beta texture with the alpha texture observed at room... -
Self-assembly in biosurfactants and biosurfactant / surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a new project which is a collaboration between Oxford, Newcastle, Ulster, and Unilever on the development of sustainable laundry detergents, using... -
Investigation of phase diagrams of polysaccharides
This project concerns fundamental and strategically important research underlying the development of new drug delivery vehicles. We propose to sample phase diagram of... -
Structural development in Whey protein polymer composite solutions for electr...
This is part of an on-going investigation into nano/micro scale sized polymer fibres at the University of Reading, prepared through the process of electrospinning. Currently we... -
Oxide Ionic Conductivity in Anion-Deficient Fluorites
The last couple of decades have seen a rapidly increasing interest in new environment friendly energy sources and one key aspect of this research involves characterisation of... -
Intergranular strain development during biaxial loading
The experiment will measure the development of Type II intergranular strains in 316 stainless steel as a function of applied stress for stress states ranging from uniaxial to... -
Incubation and first feeding of European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus, L.) eggs a...
This dataset contains all information collated during an experimental mass incubation and rearing of European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus, L.) eggs and larvae. The experiment... -
Microscopy of larval stages of the honeycomb worm Sabellaria alveolata from f...
Phenotypic plasticity, the ability of a single genotype to produce multiple phenotypes, is important for survival when species are faced with novel conditions. Theory predicts... -
