Neutron powder diffraction on graphene and metal-decorated graphene
Graphene is a very promising material and appears particularly suitable in order to develop efficient hydrogen storage systems, especially if it is ¿decorated¿ with proper metal... -
ToF ND investigation of Medieval double-edged swords
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -
Residual stress distributions and stress relaxation due to Post Weld Heat Tre...

Texture and 3D strain pole figure measurement of engineering components by GEM
The proposed experiment is to measure texture and strain tensor for specimens made by Direct Laser Deposition (DLD) and Linear Friction Welding (LFW) techniques. The... -
Continuation of Proposal (RB820197): The elasto-plastic response of dual-phas...
In the current proposal we propose to test Zr-2.5Nb samples cut at a range of angles (0, 22.5, 45, 67.5 and 90°) in the RD-TD plane in in-situ compression at room temperature.... -
Structure of Confined Mucin Films
Nowadays, a significant research effort is devoted to understand and mimic biological lubricants which, in contrast to most man-made lubricants, are based on water. It has been... -
Study on Chinese Ancient Iron Swords and Knives by Neutron
Iron sword and knife were two important weapons in history. They represented the highest level of iron technology available in Iron Age. Xian is the starting place of the Silk... -
Quantitative determination of the Bragg edge transmission analysis of 9 steel...
The Bragg edge transmission (BET) analysis is a technique exploiting the presence, position and shape of the edges which form in time of flight transmitted neutron beams. This... -
Combined imaging and diffraction studies of Renaissance bronzes
Neutron tomography and neutron diffraction are ideal to study technical and art-historical aspects of Renaisaance bronze casting in a complety non-destructive way. A series of... -
Technological study of Nuragic Bronze boat models (Sardinia, Italy)
The production of Nuragic Bronze Figurines represents a rich historical archive that provides key information not only about the iconography but also about the metal production... -
Characterization of the phase map of two ancient Japanese blades through neut...
Historical metallurgy is one of the most interesting topics of archaeometry but, in order to have a good level of characterization of artefacts by traditional analytical... -
Diffraction 'artifacts' due to shape, size and thickness variation in copper,...
In relation to TOF flight neutrondiffraction experiments conducted on Renaissance sculpture, we are proposing a systematic study of controlled shape, size and thickness effects... -
Neutron transmission strain tomography: a novel approach to strain mapping
Strain tomography is a novel approach to the analysis of residual strain fields that involves deconvolution of unknown distributions of residual elastic strains from redundant... -
Estimating carbon contents in historical European blades through neutron diff...
Previous studies have attempted to correlate the results of metallography with neutron diffraction studies on the very high-carbon steels used in Oriental blades. Japanese sword... -
Identification of the empirical forging methods and microstructural propertie...
In our previous experiment RB 1810171 we analysed a group of three Japanese swords from an important private collection. Among the samples included in the proposal, we found... -
In situ deformation and transformation studies of zirconia dental ceramic
Yttria-stabilised polycrystalline zirconia ceramics (Y-TZP¿s) possess a unique combination of properties that make them attractive for dental prosthetic applications: strength,... -
