Interfacial studies in CNT fibre/TiO photoelectrodes for efficient H production
Alicia Moya, Mariam Barawi, Belén Alemán +6
An attractive class of materials for photo(electro)chemical reactions are hybrids based on semiconducting metal oxides and nanocarbons (e.g. carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene), wher…
Understanding interlaminar toughening of unidirectional CFRP laminates with carbon nanotube veils
Yunfu Ou, Carlos González, Juan José Vilatela
The introduction of nanostructured interlayers is one of the most promising strategies for interlaminar reinforcement in structural composites. In this work, we study the failure m…
Tough sheets of nanowires produced floating in the gas phase
Richard S. Schäufele, Miguel Vazquez-Pufleau, Juan J. Vilatela
Assembling nanostructured building blocks into network materials unlocks macroscopic properties inaccessible with monolithic solids, notably toughness and tolerance to electrochemi…
First principles analysis of precipitation in Mg-Zn alloys
S. Liu, G. Esteban-Manzanares, J. LLorca
Precipitation in Mg-Zn alloys was analyzed by means of first principles calculations. Formation energies of symmetrically distinct hcp Mg1-xZnx (0 < x < 1) configurations were dete…
Nanomechanical characterization of the fracture toughness of Al/SiC nanolaminates
L. W. Yang, C. R. Mayer, N. Chawla +2
The fracture toughness of Al/SiC nanolaminates with different layer thicknesses (in the range 10 to 100 nm) was measured by means of micropillar splitting and bending of a notched…
High temperature strength retention of Cu/Nb nanolaminates through dynamic strain ageing
Zhilin Liu, J. Snel, T. Boll +4
The mechanical properties of Cu/Nb metallic nanolaminates with different layer thickness (7, 16, 34 and 63 nm) were studied by means of micropillar compression tests from room temp…
