Surface structures of polycations in confined geometries
A second-generation surface force style apparatus has been developed to probe the inter-surface and near-surface structures under compressive forces. Systems of current academic... -
Investigation of compressive residual stresses induced by ultrasonic peening ...
Surface stress engineering processes aim to improve the life of components through the generation of favorable compressive residual stress fields by locally plastically... -
Influence of compressive stress and electric field on the shape memory effect...
The proposed experiment involves monitoring the depolarisation behaviour of rhombohedral PZT (lead zirconate titanate) ceramics caused by ferroelectric domain switching during...
