1. The isostatic pressure processing of high Tc superconductors and their properties
Sammanfattning : The high Tc superconductors are highly anisotropic, ceramic materials which makes it difficult to sinter them at atmospheric pressure to full density. High porosity is detrimental to their mechanical and electrical properties, so the use of isostatic pressures was used to give higher density materials with improved properties. LÄS MER
2. Toward a reliability framework for the observational method
Sammanfattning : Constructing sustainable structures in rock that satisfy all predefined technical specifications requires rational and effective construction methods. When the geotechnical behaviour is hard to predict, the European design code, Eurocode 7, suggests application of the observational method to verify that the performance is acceptable. LÄS MER
