The aim of this thesis was to synthesise and control a nanostructured composite of copper/cobalt. Both the copper and cobalt oxalate exhibit a nanostructure. Attempts to produce nanocomposite particles in the size range of 10-70 nm were made via an oxalate ...
We have examined the micromechanical behavior of in situ formed metallic glass composites by performing in situ high-energy synchrotron X-ray scattering during uniaxial compression. The load partitioning between the amorphous matrix and the reinforcing par ...
Calcium phosphate precipitation obtained from aqueous solutions at room and body temperatures and pH 5.5-7.5 were investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), transmission electron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM ...
The excellent mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTS) are driving research into the creation of new strong, tough nanocomposite systems. Here, the first evidence of toughening mechanisms operating in carbon-nanotube-reinforced ceramic composites i ...
Information for phase identification may be gathered in the electron transmission microscope with spatial resolution down to the nanometre scale. Energy dispersive X-ray and electron energy loss spectrometries are based on inelastic electronsample interact ...
The single-crystal investigation of the self-hosting sigma-structure of beta-tantalum (beta-Ta) at 120 K (low-temperature, LT, structure) and at 293 K (RT-I before cooling and RT-II after cooling and rewarming; RT represents room temperature) shows that th ...
We present detailed analysis of inter- and intraband transitions in GaN/AlN self-organized quantum dots grown on sapphire, silicon (111) and 6H-SiC substrates. Samples containing quantum dots of different size were characterized by means of transmission el ...
Metal matrix composites are known for their excellent specific mechanical properties. Nevertheless, because of the thermal expansion mismatch between the matrix and the reinforcements, thermal stresses arise at the interfaces of such materials. In order to ...
High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and HRTEM simulation by the Bloch wave method (JEMS) are used to determine the structure and thickness of micro- and nanocrystals of biominerals and hydroxyapatite grown from aqueous solutions. It is ...
We consider an anisotropic phase-field model for the isothermal solidification of a binary alloy due to Warren-Boettinger (Acta. Metall. Mater. 1995; 43(2):689)., Existence of weak solutions is established under a certain convexity condition on the strongl ...
