The Parrinello-Rahman algorithm for imposing a general state of stress in periodic molecular dynamics simulations is widely used in the literature and has been implemented in many readily available molecular dynamics codes. However, what is often overlooke ...
The performance and degree of efficiency of industrial transformers are directly influenced by the magnetic properties of high-permeability steel laminations (HPSLs). Industrial transformer cores are built of stacks of single HPSLs. While the insulating co ...
The influence of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) on the structure and mechanical properties of polyamide 12 (PA12) fibers was investigated. As seen from wide-angle X-ray diffraction analysis the crystallinity index increases with ...
A microcasting process is developed for the production of monocrystalline microwires of pure and alloyed aluminium. The process is based on pressure infiltration of single-crystalline salt moulds; it is capable of producing wires with a diameter between 6 ...
Three newly identified cross-slip mechanisms from atomistic simulations of fcc crystals, namely surface, bulk and intersection cross-slip types, were hierarchically informed into discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. The influence of each cross-slip t ...
The operation of a single Frank–Read (FR) source in the presence of a spatial stress gradient is studied using 3D discrete-dislocation dynamics (DDD) simulations and analytic models. Under a sufficiently large stress gradient, the FR source shows a new sta ...
We have recently shown that minute solute element additions to liquid metallic alloys can strongly influence the nucleation of the fcc phase and act as a grain refinement method. Electron back-scattered diffraction observations revealed a concomitant incre ...
The manufacture and characterisation of an elastic dipole antenna that is reversibly deformable and stretchable is described. The metallisation technique of depositing sub-micron-thick gold (Au) film on pillar patterned elastomer polydimethylsiloxane has b ...
Nanoindentation and nanoscratching of an indium phosphide (InP) semiconductor surface was investigated via contact mechanics. Plastic deformation in InP is known to be caused by the nucleation, propagation, and multiplication of dislocations. Using selecti ...
A 'one-step' theory based on Pitsch distortion is proposed to explain the continuity between the orientations of the Kurdjumov-Sachs (KS), Nishiyama-Wassermann (NW) and Pitsch variants observed on the electron backscatter diffraction pole figures of marten ...
