Conformation of the origins of variant selection and high ductility in an ind...
Recently, Nippon Steel Corporation (NSC) developed an industrial ferrous alloy showing transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) and large ductility and strength. It has been... -
In Situ Torsional Testing to study hkl strains and phase transformation in TR...
No diffraction studies have specifically aimed to study the (hkl) specific strain in polycrystals under the application of pure shear. A technique is proposed that has been... -
Influence of temperature on the ferroelectric-antiferroelectric phase switchi...
The proposed experiment is concerned with the rhombohedral ferroelectric (FE) to orthorhombic antiferroelectric (AFE) phase transformation in PZT (lead zirconate titanate)... -
The Novel Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) Heat-treatment Process
Q&P heat-treatments typically consist of an ¿Austenitisation - Interrupted Quench ¿ Partition ¿ Final Quench¿ heat treatment process. During the partitioning stage carbon... -
The effect of elastic stress on the martensite transformation in commercial T...
This proposal intends to investigate two ideas relating to TRIP steels in one experiment. Firstly, in-situ cooling under constant elastic stress will be performed to determine...
