The effects of neutron irradiation on austenitic stainless steels, usually used for the manufacturing of internal elements of nuclear reactors (e.g. the core shrouds), are the alteration of the microchemistry and the microstructure, and, as a consequence, ...
The motivation of this work derives from the need of the cutting tool industry to improve its products in order to support harder and harder working conditions, namely increasing cutting speeds and working on stronger modern materials. The lifetime of the ...
Titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN)-based coatings are designed specially for applications where oxidation and wear resistance are primary demands, as in the case of cutting tools. Moreover the coatings are required to be thermally stable as well as have go ...
The basic concepts of a deterministic scheme for simulating grain growth or foam coarsening in two dimensions have been presented in Part I. Implementation of the corresponding Laguerre (or weighted Voronoi) diagram in computer manageable practical terms i ...
Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 (PMN) alkoxide precursor solutions were synthesized and used to prepare thin films by spin coating on TiO2/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates. Many parameters like the use of homogeneous and stable precursor solutions and appropriate processing w ...
We propose a novel and poweful methodology for three- dimensional (3D) grain growth modelling in both the anisotropic and the locally inhomogeneous cases, thus significantly generalizing previous related two-dimensional work. The fundamental modelling stru ...
A consortium was created to investigate electroceramic materials that show ionic or mixed ionic-electronic conduction (MIEC), for application as oxygen separation membranes and in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC, electrolytes and cathodes). The focus is on de ...
In the absence of high-order aberrations, the lattice fringe technique should allow measurement of grain boundary rigid-body displacements to accuracies about an order of magnitude better than the point-to-point resolution of the transmission electron micr ...
The 3D Laguerre model for polycrystal normal grain growth is generalized to the anisotropic case. In the model, the specific grain boundary energy id determined by the misorientation of adjacent grains and the grain boundary mobility is assumed to be isotr ...
The 2-D Laguerre model of the grain growth process as the evolution of a simple convex polygonal complex is generalized to the case of a heterogeneus system. Due to the existence of several types of grains in the system, the specific grain boundary energy ...
