This is a critical review of MAX-phase carbides and nitrides from an electronic-structure and
chemical bonding perspective. This large group of nanolaminated materials is of great …

High‐entropy alloys (HEAs) in which interesting physical, chemical, and structural properties
are being continuously revealed have recently attracted extensive attention. Body‐centered …

Our safety, comfort and peace of mind are heavily dependent upon our capability to prevent,
predict or postpone the failure of components and structures on the basis of sound physical …

Over the past 25 years the field of neutron diffraction for residual stress characterization has
grown tremendously, and has matured from the stage of trial demonstrations to provide a …

We studied the deformation behavior of CrFeCoNi high-entropy alloy by in situ neutron
diffraction at room temperature, intermediate low temperature of 140 K, low temperatures of …

The microstructural evolution and deformation mechanisms of 316L stainless steel (SS)
have been investigated at 297, 173, 50 and 15 K using in situ neutron diffraction during …

The mechanical behaviour of different parts (top, middle and bottom) of concrete exposed to
monotonic and cyclic loading is investigated through laboratory testing. Strain evolution and …

The engineering materials diffractometer, VULCAN, at the Spallation Neutron Source began
commissioning on June 26, 2009. This instrument is designed for materials science and …

During manufacturing of components by laser engineered net shaping (LENS®), a solid
freeform fabrication process, the introduction of residual stresses causes deformation or in …
