The aim of the thesis is to obtain more understanding about the influence of plastic deformation on the microstructural changes observed in single crystal (SX) Ni-based superalloys using diffraction techniques. This work was organised around two main probl ...
Al-Zn-Mg(-Cu) (AA7xxx) alloys are widely used structural materials owing to their excellent mechanical properties and low corrosion susceptibility. The high strength of these materials is obtained by the formation of secondary phases, e.g. precipitation. T ...
Five different grain sizes are produced in 0.17 wt% carbon steel using varying rates of cooling from austenitization temperatures. Controlled furnace cooling from 1100 °C and 950 °C produces coarse ferrite grains of 40 µm and 32 µm diameter, respectively, ...
Integrated circuit packaging technology has become a prime design consideration for the develop-ment of electronic system concepts. One key issue is the bonding layer between chip and substrate. Currently, high-lead solder materials are being used, which a ...
Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate materials for fusion reactor structural components, liquid metal containers of spallation neutron sources, and accelerator driven systems, with good radiation resistance and thermo-mechanical properties. However, e ...
The microstructure of porous silver layers produced under different low temperature pressure-assisted sintering conditions is characterized and linked with the mechanical behavior studied insitu during X-ray diffraction. Peak profile analysis reveals impor ...
With recent developments in micro and nano-technologies, mechanical components such as those used in medicine or electronics tend to be miniaturized, requiring a new set of testing techniques to study their reliability and performance. One of the new metho ...
A microcasting process is developed for the production of monocrystalline microwires of pure and alloyed aluminium. The process is based on pressure infiltration of single-crystalline salt moulds; it is capable of producing wires with a diameter between 6 ...
We extend the analysis of Hutchinson and Neale (Hutchinson JW, Neale KW. Acta Metall 1977;25:839) and Ghosh (Ghosh AK. Acta Metall 1977;25:1413) predicting the tensile elongation to failure of strain-rate-dependent plastic materials to two-phase composites ...
Manipulation and transport of microscale objects in 3D with high spatiotemporal resolution require precise control over the applied forces. We report a strategy that uses specially engineered microbars having engagement points and multiple helical microcar ...
