Zhong, Q.; Xu, N.; Zhou, G.; Rohwerder, M.: Study of electronic-ionic conducting transformation of temporarily protective oil coating in salt solution. Materials and Corrosion-Werkstoffe und Korrosion 54 (2), pp. 97 - 105 (2003)
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...
