In situ diffraction investigations of mechanisms that lead to path dependent mechanical behaviours of nickel-titanium shape memory alloys
… (SMAs) has taken big steps over half a century in understanding the role of alloying components, processing of alloys and microstructural optimization to real life engineering application. This has aided in the growth of application of SMAs to multi-billion-dollar industry but the component …

Investigation effect of external stress on hydrogen solvus in a zircaloy-4 fuel cladding alloy: application of in situ diffraction technique and mesoscale phase-field simulation
Zircaloy-4 is widely used as a nuclear fuel cladding material in light water reactors (LWRs). However, the formation of the zirconium hydride phase in the cladding significantly degrades its mechanical properties by reducing the local ductility and initiating crack propagation. Therefore, one of …

Electronic transport and structure of a surface quantum well
Lattice-mismatched heteroepitaxy is present in the growth of any thin-film heterostructure, and has inevitable consequences on the nature of film growth. A mismatch in the lattice parameter between two materials leads to strain within both films, which can lead to dislocations and deformations in …

Investigating the structure and function of HSV-1 tegument proteins: UL7 and UL51
… a large double-stranded DNA genome encased within an icosahedral capsid. The capsid is surrounded by a protein-rich layer, termed tegument, and a membranous envelope containing viral glycoproteins. HSV-1 genome replication and encapsidation occurs in the nucleus, after which, DNA-loaded capsids …

Diffraction Studies Of Deformation In Shape Memory Alloys And Selected Engineering Components
Deformation phenomena in shape memory alloys involve stress-, temperature-induced phase transformations and crystallographic variant conversion or reorientation, equivalent to a twinning operation. In near equiatomic NiTi, Ti rich compositions can exist near room temperature as a monoclinic B19' …
