In Situ Study of Excess Lithium Metal Oxides Under Charge and Discharge
The next generations of Lithium batteries require materials with an enhanced energy density. The most realistic choice for such systems are the lithium rich electrodes (e.g.... -
High-pressure studies of energetic materials
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise high-pressure polymorphs of the energetic materials hydroxylammonium perchlorate, CL-20, diaminodinitroethene (FOX-7), and... -
High-pressure and variable-temperature studies of RDX
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... -

Characterising residual stresses in dissimilar metal welds (P92/In625)
Welds in safety critical applications are subject to structural integrity assessments where residual stress plays a key part. Dissimilar welds are often used in service without... -
Characterisation of residual stresses generated by laser cladding and shock p...
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... -
CHARACTERISATION OF RESIDUAL STRESSES IN THE VICINITY OF WELD OVERLAYS AND EF...
Residual stresses can have substantial and detrimental influences on the integrity of power plant infrastructure. In this work, we aim to characterise the development and... -
Eliminating Residual Stress in Stainless Steel Welded Joints using Transforma...
In the course of 2.5 years research in Cambridge, we have developed for the first time a tough, low-carbon martensitic stainless steel weld metal (CamAlloy 4) which can be used... -
Residual stress distributions and stress relaxation due to Post Weld Heat Tre...
UK power plants are following the worldwide trends in the power generating industry, in line with demands for increases in the efficiency of existing power plants and for...
