A phenomenological modelling approach has been developed to describe the massive transformation and the formation of lamellar microstructures during cooling in binary gamma titanium aluminides. The modelling approach is based on a combination of nucleation ...
Gamma titanium aluminide (γ-TiAl) based alloys are very interesting materials for structural applications at elevated temperatures owing to the combination of high specific strength, good oxidation, creep and fatigue resistance. However, their relatively p ...
Microcellular Al-4.5 wt pct Cu of 400- or 75-mu m average pore diameter is solidified at cooling rates ranging from -30 K/min to -0.45 K/min (-30 A degrees C/min to -0.45 A degrees C/min). In the 400-mu m pore size samples, the dendritic character is lost, ...
An approximate relation between the vibrational entropy and the mean square displacement of the particles is derived. Using observations of the short-time dynamics in liquids of various fragility, it is argued that (i) if the crystal entropy is significant ...
Detailed surface measurements of the thermal performance of a film cooling system have been performed on the endwall of a nozzle guide vane (NGV) mounted in a linear cascade facility at EPFL. An external cooling scheme including several rows of fan-shaped ...

An active fire protection system, liquid-cooling, was applied to pultruded GFRP tubes subjected to combined thermal and mechanical loading in order to maintain material temperature below the critical glass transition temperature. The use of an appropriate ...
Nowadays medium voltage conversion systems, like traction and energy distribution systems, aim to increase power density. Volume, weight and material reduction are gaining the market today. Due to the development of new high power semi-conductor devices a ...
Recent experimental progress in cavity optomechanics has allowed cooling of mesoscopic mechanical oscillators via dynamic backaction provided by the parametric coupling to either an optical or an electrical resonator. Here we analyze the occurrence of norm ...
