1. Neutron scattering studies of hard metals
Sammanfattning : Since their discovery about 100 years ago, tools made of hard metals have been the enablers of development in various areas: from drilling subway lines for more sustainable cities to the machining of complex next-generation airplane engine parts for reduced CO2 emissions. An increase in properties of hard metals thus leads to efficient operations with shorter lead-time, less environmental footprint, and reduced cost. LÄS MER
2. Quantification of local lattice distortions in refractory high-entropy alloys by scattering-based techniques
Sammanfattning : The increasing demand for advanced structural materials for use in extreme conditions, particularly including the aerospace applications, has promoted the development of refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs). A deeper understanding of the interaction between microstructure and properties is essential to overcome the scientific challenges associated with these alloys. LÄS MER
3. High-sensitivity Radioactive Xenon Monitoring and High-accuracy Neutron-proton Scattering Measurements
Sammanfattning : Two aspects of applied nuclear physics have been studied in this thesis; Monte Carlo simulations for high-sensitivity monitoring of radioactive xenon and high-accuracy neutron-proton scattering measurements for neutron physics applications and fundamental physics. The Monte Carlo simulations have been performed for two systems for detection of radioactive xenon, using the MCNP code. LÄS MER
4. Local structure in disordered materials studied by neutron scattering and RMC modelling
Sammanfattning : Different disordered materials are becoming more and more important in various technological applications.
