The experiment performed by Bonneville and Escaig, designed for the direct measurement of the activation parameters of cross-slip, has been repeated. A denser initial dislocation forest density is obtained with a higher predeformation stress compared with ...
Using transmission electron microscopy, we investigate the thermally activated motion of domain walls (DWs) between two positions in Permalloy (Ni80Fe20) nanowires at room temperature. We show that this purely thermal motion is well described by an Arrheni ...
The state-resolved reaction probability of CH4 on Pt(110)-(1×2) was measured as a function of CH4 translational energy for four vibrational eigenstates comprising different amounts of C-H stretch and bend excitation. State-specific reactivity is observed b ...
Control over the structure of metals at the mesoscale (2-50 nm) is crucial for emerging applications such as energy conversion, sensing, and information processing. The self-assembly of nanoparticles with block copolymers provides a natural entry point to ...
The tensile behavior of adhesively-bonded double-lap joints composed of pultruded glass fiber-reinforced adherends and an epoxy adhesive was investigated under temperatures ranging between -35°C and 60°C. The load-elongation response was influenced primari ...
This thesis investigates nine new compositions of the ternary Au-Cu-Pt system, containing from 75 to 78 wt% Au with 0 to 15 wt% Pt, by means of in-situ synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, transmission electron micros ...
A general method for the direct evaluation of the temperature dependence of the quantum-mechanical reaction rate constant in many-dimensional systems is described. The method is based on the quantum instanton approximation for the rate constant, thermodyna ...
In spite of frequent observations, and of sonic important consequences for industrial applications, the glide motion of dislocations in non-octahedral planes of fcc metals and alloys remains rather poorly known, and not sufficiently considered for the anal ...
The influence of thermal curing on the evolution of the material properties and the UHPFRC behaviour was investigated. Tests results showed a beneficial effect of a high temperature curing on the early age material properties due to the thermo-activation e ...
Copper and its alloys generally display a severe reduction in ductility between roughly 300 and 600 degrees C, a phenomenon variously called 'intermediate temperature embrittlement' or 'ductility trough behaviour'. This review of the phenomenon begins by p ...
