  • Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis of niobium for characterization of light interstitials

    Creator:
    Love, Ian J.
    Abstract:
    High purity niobium metal is used in the construction of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities in superconducting particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN or the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The usual method for characterizing the impurities in this niobium, the...

  • Effect of Imprinting Process on Fracture Behavior of a Zr-based Bulk Metallic Glass

    Creator:
    Li, Bosong
    Abstract:
    Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are relatively new amorphous materials that have received much attention in recent years. Rapid cooling methods from the liquid state provides the possibility to bypass crystallization during solidification. Due to the lack of crystal defects such as grain boundaries and dislocations, BMGs can have some special...

  • Evaluation of Abaqus for simulating quasi-static Mode III shear of edge notched carbon fiber reinforced polymer panels

    Creator:
    Hyder, Imran
    Abstract:
    The ability to engineer stiffness and strength in any desired direction make composites an ideal material candidate for various applications when compared to their traditional isotropic counterparts. In spite of this, the ability to model the material response in composites has yet to be fully explored. Composite research largely focuses...

  • Novel ternary graphite intercalation compounds of alkali metal cations and amines

    Creator:
    Maluangont, Tosapol
    Abstract:
    Novel ternary graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) of alkali metal cations and a wide variety of amines have been synthesized by one-pot chemical syntheses. Alkali metals studied includes Li, Na and K. The families of amines employed are nalkylamines, branched alkylamines, and different structural isomers of diamines and polyamines. Intragallery structures...
