Atomistic Dynamics of Deformation, Fracture and GB Migration in Oxides

In order to clarify the deformation and fracture mechanism in oxides such as Al2O3 and STO, TEM in situ nanoindentation experiments were conducted for their single crystals and bicrystals. We successfully observed the dynamic behavior of twin formation, twin-GB interaction, pile-up dislocation, jog ... [more]

Local Phase Transformations: A New Creep Strengthening Mechanism in Ni-Base Superalloys

Polycrystalline Ni-based superalloys are vital materials for disks in the hot section of aerospace and land-based turbine engines due to their exceptional microstructural stability and strength at high temperatures. In order to increase operating temperatures and hold times in these engines, hence ... [more]

High-resolution micro-plasticity in advanced high-strength steels

The persistent demand for green, strong and ductile advanced high strength steels, with a reduced climate footprint, calls for novel and improved multi-phase microstructures. The development of these new steels requires an in-depth understanding of the governing plasticity mechanisms at the micron ... [more]

An atoms eye view of Solar System Evolution

An atoms eye view of Solar System Evolution
  • Date: Sep 15, 2023
  • Time: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Dr. Luke Daly, University of Glasgow, Scotland, UK
  • Dr Luke Daly is a Reader in Planetary Geoscience at the University of Glasgow. He completed his MSc degree in Geology at Imperial College London. His PhD was with Prof. Phil Bland at Curtin University Australia which focused on platinum group element alloys in meteorites. His current research focusses on applying correlative microscopy including atom probe tomography to meteorites and asteroid sample return mission materials in order to understand how our Solar System formed and evolved: in particular, trying to answer the question of how Earth became a habitable planet. He is a participating scientist on JAXA's Hayabusa 2 mission and treasurer of the UK Fireball Alliance - a network of meteor cameras that successfully recovered the Winchcombe meteorite in 2021.
