Delandar, A. H.; Haghighat, S. M. H.; Korzhavyi, P.; Sandström, R.: Dislocation dynamics modeling of plastic deformation in single-crystal copper at high strain rates. International Journal of Materials Research 107 (11), pp. 988 - 995 (2016)
Max Planck scientists design a process that merges metal extraction, alloying and processing into one single, eco-friendly step. Their results are now published in the journal Nature.
A novel design with independent tip and sample heating is developed to characterize materials at high temperatures. This design is realized by modifying a displacement controlled room temperature micro straining rig with addition of two miniature hot stages.
