Pushing the boundaries of micro and nanomechanics

Pushing the boundaries of micro and nanomechanics
  • Date: Oct 22, 2019
  • Time: 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Dr. Rajaprakash Ramachandramoorthy
  • Laboratory of Mechanics of Materials and Nanostructures, EMPA, Thun, Switzerland
  • Location: Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH
  • Room: Large Conference Room No. 203
  • Host: Prof. Gerhard Dehm
Current level of miniaturization in everyday devices indicates that micro and nano architectures have become functional elements in electronics and diminutive mechanical-based systems. Yet, the potential of such multiscale functional elements is not fully realized due to incomplete understanding of ... [more]

Manipulation of individual defects in 2D and layered Materials

Manipulation of individual defects in 2D and layered Materials
  • Date: Oct 18, 2019
  • Time: 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Dr.-Ing Peter Schweizer
  • Institute of Micro- and Nanostructure Research (IMN) Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany
  • Location: Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH
  • Room: Large Conference Room No. 203
  • Host: Prof. Gerhard Dehm
Defects decisively influence the properties of virtually any material. It is therefore desirable to control the occurrence and properties of defects down to the atomic scale. While many methods have been successfully developed to influence defects in an indirect way (e.g. heat treatments, ion ... [more]

Multi-scale design and analyses of advanced materials: Experimental approaches

Multi-scale design and analyses of advanced materials: Experimental approaches
  • Date: Oct 17, 2019
  • Time: 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Dr. James P. Best
  • IMM, RWTH University Aachen
  • Location: Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH
  • Room: Large Conference Room No. 203
  • Host: Prof. Gerhard Dehm
When a 100-tonne steel forging die fails during industrial processing; the root causes are often localised to small length scales. Advanced materials therefore need to be designed at the characteristic material length scales; incorporating environmental considerations such as local defects or ... [more]

Close Packed Phases in Nickel-Based Superalloys - Investigation by Diffusion Multiples

Close Packed Phases in Nickel-Based Superalloys - Investigation by Diffusion Multiples
  • Date: Sep 30, 2019
  • Time: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Prof. Dr. Uwe Glatzel
  • Metallische Werkstoffe, Universität Bayreuth
  • Location: Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH
  • Room: Large Conference Room No. 203
  • Host: Prof. Dr. Gerhard Dehm / Dr. Christian Liebscher
Precipitation of close-packed phases is a common problem of modern nickel-based superalloys, containing refractory or higher melting point elements such as Re, Ru, Cr, Mo and W. Thus, a fundamental understanding of phase stabilities of close-packed phases governed by these elements is of high ... [more]
