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 present thesis focuses on the effect of 5 MeV Ni ion irradiation on the microstructure and the thermomechanical behavior in prestrained (ε∼4%) martensitic Ti-rich NiTi thin films. At this ion energy, damage is limited to a depth of approximately 2 µm ( ...
Nanostructured materials should present a good resistance to irradiation because the large volume fraction of grain boundaries can be an important sink for radiation-induced defects. The objective of the present study is to experimentally investigate the i ...
The effect of the bulk microstructure (grain size distribution, grain boundary composition on the oxygen transport properties of La0.5Sr0.5FeO3membranes was investigated. For this purpose, samples with different microstruct ...
Microstructural analysis and mechanical testing have been performed on two types of nanocrystalline (NC) Ni samples and compared to coarse-grained (CG) Ni. The NC electrodeposited (ED) Ni is characterized by a mean grain size of 21 nm, a narrow grain size ...
Pure Cu single crystals irradiated at room temperature to low doses with 590MeV protons have been deformed in situ in a transmission electron microscope in order to identify the basic mechanisms at the origin of hardening. Cu irradiated to 10(-4) dpa shows ...
A model Ni-Bi system has been used to investigate intergranular penetration (IGP) phenomenon. All experiments have been done on Ni 26° bicrystal at 700°C using bismuth vapour condensation as a source of liquid bismuth. Such a procedure results at room ...
The objective of this paper is to present the fundamental phenomena occurring during the scribing and subsequent fracturing process usually performed when preparing surfaces of brittle semiconductors. In the first part, an overview of nano-scratching exper ...
The mechanical properties of ultrathin silicon oxide (SiOx ) coatings plasma-deposited on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films were investigated with particular attention paid to the effect of additives located in the superficial layers of the polymer ...
Pressure drop in the ITER PFCI cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) has been measured at CRPP using pressurized water at room temperature. The PFCI conductor is a dual channel CICC and the coolant flows in parallel in the central channel and in the annular bu ...
