The use of neutron diffraction to determine residual stresses in standard ISI...
High-pressure research is one of the fastest-growing areas of natural science. The European Commission is funding the Sample Environment Joint Research Activity (JRA) between... -
Intergranular stress generation during high temperature creep-fatigue loading
Intergranular stresses, generated during cyclic loading of AISI type 316H stainless steel can significantly affect the creep deformation of this material. However,... -
SESANS of beetle scales and butterfly wings
Neutron scattering and in particular SESANS is able to give us excellent ensemble averaging of the optical properties of materials which exhibit structural colour. We plan to... -
Artificial [FeFe]-Hydrogenases and Muon Spectroscopy
Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT... -
The Influence of Post-Quench Delay on the Residual Stresses in Cold Compresse...
Residual stresses introduced into large aerospace aluminium components after the queching procedure carried out to form the desired microstructure can result in large, costly... -
The effect of precipitation during natural aging on residual stresses in plas...
This experiment will determine the influence of second phase precipitation on subsequent post heat treatment cold compression for heat treatable aluminium alloys. Immersion... -
Framework Investigation of Germanosilicate Zeolites
We request 5 days on VESUVIO to study atomic momentum distributions within the frameworks of a series of SixGe(12-x)O24 zeolites with the SOD framework. Neutron... -
Catalysis in Hydrogen-Bond Rich Porous Organic Materials
Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions are essential in biological and chemical processes, particularly in reactions catalysed by enzymes and small-molecule catalysts.... -
An investigation into the structure of zeolites ZSM-5, Beta and Y as a functi...
The inelastic neutron scattering spectrum of commercial samples of industrially important zeolites ZSM-5 (Si/Al ratios: 25, 30, 80,and 280), Beta (Si/Al ratios: 25, 38, and 300)... -
Characterising Bronsted acidity in industrial zeolite catalysts as a function...
The vibrational spectrum of Brønsted acid sites in commercial zeolite catalysts as a function of framework topology and composition (Si/Al ratio) will be studied using the... -
P and Al substitutions in the lithium battery cathode Li2FeSiO4
There is great interest in scaling up Li-ion batteries for use in electric vehicles, requiring cheap and safe cathodes. Li2FeSiO4 shows promising performance as a cathode but... -
INS STUDY OF BIOCHAR AS SOLID ACID CATALYSTS
Pyrolysis is considered as a sustainable way to generate energy from bio-oil, however, biochar – a solid residue by-product– is inevitably produced in the production line. We...
