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 ...
This work is concerned with a numerical simulation of the thermal behaviour of an electrolysis cell for the production of the aluminium. Aluminium is produced by an electrolytic reduction of alumina dissolved in a bath of molten cryolite. In this reduction ...
Self-diffusion NMR spectroscopy and relaxometry have been employed to study fragrance encapsulation in water-soluble, amphiphilic star block copolymers. Diffusion coefficients of four different fragrance molecules in the free form and in the presence of th ...
When two electrolyte solutions of different temperature are placed in contact, a thermal diffusion potential (TDP) is established. The phenomenon is studied numerically using finite element simulations of the temperature distribution within a hydrodynamic ...
Direct evidence for freezing in two relaxer ferroelectrics, PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 and PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3, at a certain temperature T-f not equal 0K was obtained from the temperature dependence of the maximum relaxation time, tau(max), It was shown that tau(max)(T) fo ...
The macroscopic properties of ferroelectric materials depend directly on the domain configuration and the structure of the domain boundaries. For this reason, their study is of great scientific and technological interest. Several models have been developed ...
We present a critical view of the analysis of experimental island densities acquired as a function of temperature in terms of barriers and prefactors for tracer diffusion at surfaces. We investigate the achievable precision for methods ranging from simple ...
The diffusion behavior of iodine in yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) was investigated as a function of the temperature. Iodine implantation was performed in this cubic solid solution by irradiating material samples with 1 MeV iodine ions. The distribution ...
Simulations of nanoindentation in single crystals are performed using a finite temperature coupled atomistic/continuum discrete dislocation (CADD) method. This computational method for multiscale modeling of plasticity has the ability of treating dislocati ...
Transient absorption spectra of C60 mols. trapped in cryogenic rare gas matrixes and dissolved in room temp. toluene were measured with a time resoln. of 90 fs. An absorption build-up with a characteristic rise time of 200 fs is measured, which is solvent- ...
