Urriola, P. V.; Walczak, M.; Rohwerder, M.: Theoretical Efficiency of Metallic Dispersion Coatings for Corrosion Protection at the Cut-Edge. Journal of the Electrochemical Society 160 (8), pp. C305 - C315 (2013)
The aim of the current study is to investigate electrochemical corrosion mechanisms by examining the metal-liquid nanointerfaces. To achieve this, corrosive fluids will be strategically trapped within metal structures using novel additive micro fabrication techniques. Subsequently, the nanointerfaces will be analyzed using cryo-atom probe…
In this project we study a new strategy for the theory-guided bottom up design of beta-Ti alloys for biomedical applications using a quantum mechanical approach in conjunction with experiments. Parameter-free density functional theory calculations are used to provide theoretical guidance in selecting and optimizing Ti-based alloys...
