Bulk high temperature superconductors are useful for permanent magnet applications because they can generate much stronger magnetic fields than ferromagnets and are more compact...

We aim at modelling the effect of local phase-specific micro residual stresses on the residual stress evaluation for multiphase materials and plan to study the effect of local...

Residual Stresses are a big challenge in 3D printing. They develop because the deposited material cools down, but it cannot shrink.One of the most widely used materials in 3D...

Zr alloys are used in cores of nuclear reactors because they are relatively transparent to neutrons, which helps the efficiency of a nuclear reactor. However, as any material...

Metal Additive Manufacturing can be used to build smart structural features and parts. Residual Stress and distortion is probably the biggest challenge. Lab-scale parts with...

The mechanical properties of multilayered metallic composites are determined by strain/stress partitioning between the constituent metals. However, the effect of strain on the...

The present research proposal focuses on solving technological challenges associated with the implementation of components of Nickel superalloys produced by Additive...

In nuclear reactors such as pressurized water reactors (PWR), heavy section components, manufactured using low alloy steels, are connected to stainless steel piping systems...

Understanding the micro-scale processes that act during the loading of cemented granular materials (e.g., sandstones) is yet to be achieved. Recent developments have proven that...

The fact that residual stresses are redistributed or relaxed during operations shows the importance of understanding residual stress after a particular period. Elastic shakedown...
