The Definitive Sodium Niobate Phase Diagram?
NaNbO3 has long been regarded as the 'most complex' perovskite known, with at least seven different phases reported as a function of T, at least two of which have evaded all... -
Characterising PWHT 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. Because residual stress predictions are unreliable,... -
Determination of structure of stress-induced martensite in NiTi shape memory ...
The stress-induced martensitic deformation and variant conversion (due to straining in the martensite state) of a Ti-50.8% Ni shape memory alloy will be studied. Macroscopic... -
Local structural effects in doped NaNbO3 ferroelectrics
Derivatives of the perovskite NaNbO3 are currently being studied as benign replacements for piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3. In order to understand the structure-composition-property... -
Some Ferroic Perovskite Solid Solutions
We are examining various perovskite solid solutions based on NaNbO3 or BiFeO3 that havepromising ferroelectric or multiferroic properties. All of these solid solutions show...
