Neutron Diffraction Study of Deformation in Coarse-Grained Cast Alpha-Uranium
This experiment aims to obtain experimental data to validate crystal plasticity modelling of a metal with a complex, anisotropic, crystal structure. We propose to measure the... -
Intergranular Stress effects on Stress Corrosion Cracking Susceptibility of S...
The stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of austenitic stainless steels (ASS) has been shown to increase with cold work (CW). However, the mechanism by which CW and the subsequent... -
Hysteresis in the deformation of layered crystal structures
The aim of this proposal is to study the origin of the hysteresis effect in many layered crystal structures, in particular MAX-phases, such as Ti2AlC. This effect has been...
