Evidence of composition fluctuations around threading dislocations at scales ranging from atomic distances to tens of nanometers is provided by z-contrast imaging, strain measurement, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy in AlxIn1-x N/GaN heterostructu ...
Degradation of mechanical properties due to nanometric irradiation induced defects is one of the challenging issues in designing ferritic materials for future nuclear fusion reactors. Various types of defects, namely dislocation loops, voids, He bubbles an ...
Polycrystalline materials with crystallite diameters below hundred nanometer exhibit extraordinary strength which goes along with a decrease in ductility. In order to tailor tough materials, which combine strength and ductility, the underlying deformation ...
Non-polar a-GaN films grown on r-sapphire by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) are studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Despite the small lattice mismatch in a-GaN ([1 0 (1) over bar 0] similar to 1.1% and [0 00 1] similar to 16%), high d ...
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 ...
This PhD Thesis work was aimed at investigating the potentiality of tungsten-base materials as structural materials for the future thermonuclear fusion reactors in attempting to develop reduced activation tungsten-base materials with high strength and suff ...
Dislocation interaction with a cohesive crack is of increasing importance to computational modelling of crack nucleation/growth and related toughening mechanisms in confined structures and under cyclic fatigue conditions. Here, dislocation shielding of a D ...
Grain boundary engineering (GBE) aims at optimizing the properties of face centred cubic materials with low stacking fault energy by creating a high content of special twin boundaries. Quantifying twinning and its parameters, such as the twin related domai ...
According to various studies, Grain Boundary Engineering (GBE) is likely to enhance mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials. The present investigation highlights some relationships between thermomechanical process (TMP) parameters of a commercia ...
Strengthening of dislocations by multiple obstacle types occurs in many engineering alloys. Theories have rationalized two different scaling laws for the total strength, tau(alpha)(t) = tau(alpha)(1) + tau(alpha)(2) with alpha = 1 or 2, where tau(1) and ta ...
