Built Environments, Constructed Societies
Archaeology, as the discipline that searches to explain the development of society by means of material remains, has been avoiding the big issues involved with its research... -
The use of INS to characterise deactivation of methane reforming catalysts.
For the first time, the research team aim to use INS to characterise a series of candidate methane reforming catalysts. Recent studies have shown that modification of... -
The origin of ultra-low thermal conductivity in the thermal barrier material ...
Thermal barrier materials are used in modern turbines to enable them to run above the melting temperature of the turbine blades. However, to go to higher temperatures (and... -
CATIONIC POLYMERS AS POTENTIAL GENE DELIVERY AGENTS: EVALUATION OF CONFORMATI...
Bio-responsive polymers hold great promise as delivery vehicles for drugs, peptides and proteins as their chemistry can be tuned to effect a change in physico-chemical... -
Neutron reflection from 3He layer adsorbed on liquid 4He surface
More than four decades ago A. F. Andreev predicted theoretically the existence of quantum states of 3He atoms on free surface of liquid 4He . In other words, at low... -
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... -
Self-Organisation of Phospholipids on Au Electrodes
This experiment is part of a programme to study the effect of applied electric fields on the structure of biomimetic films formed at Au electrodes, with emphasis on... -
Evolving structures of oxysulfide battery materials
This proposal aims to investigate the evolution of the structures of layered oxysulfide materials which show promise as lithium ion battery electrodes. The lithiation of... -
Mechanical twinning in quartz rocks: in situ experiments at stress and during...
Previous experiments at ENGIN-X (Wenk et al. 2007) established that quartz rocks undergo mechanical twinning if stressed above 100 MPa. The amount of twinning is highly... -
The effect of process parameters on residual strain generation and microstruc...
The aim of this work is to characterise the residual stresses in the longitudinal, transverse ans short transverse directions for 11 welds in 6.5mm thick HSLA-65 (ferritic) and... -
The mechanism of Oxygen Absorption/Desorption in YBaCo4O7+d (Y114) studied by...
An uncommon oxygen absorption/desorption behavior for cobalt oxide YBaCo4O7+d was found[Karppinen et al. Chem Mater 18 2006 490]. Y114 absorbs and desorbs oxygen up to d = 1.5... -
Microscopic structure of acetic acid in water and methanol
Some of the most important chemical reactions involve Brønsted acids and bases where the solvation structure and transport dynamics of charged defects in hydrogen-bonded... -
Oxygen Vacancy Clusters in Pure and Doped CeO2-d
Oxide ceramics based on ceria, CeO2, have been the subject of considerable research for the role of solid electrolyte within solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), since their ionic... -
Partial freezing of a Kagome Magnet
Ever since the first published consideration of the ground state of a triangular lattice of Ising spins by PW Andersen in the 50's, the pursuit of materials with geometrically... -
