A self-consistent model for the stress-strain behavior of shape-memory alloy polycrystals
Z.K. Lu,George J. Weng +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent model was developed to calculate the stress-strain behavior of a shape-memory alloys (SMAs) polycrystal from the behavior of its constituent grains.

On the Application of Transition State Theory to Atomic-Scale Wear
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the literature on thermally activated wear behavior is presented, and the authors make suggestions for measuring and interpreting such parameters, and provide a picture of one possible thermally activation transition (in its initial, activated, and final states).

High resolution observations of displacements caused by bainitic transformation
E. Swallow,H. K. D. H. Bhadeshia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, high resolution measurements of the displacements caused by the formation of bainite in a steel have confirmed that the surface relief due to each platelet in any given sheaf is identical to that of the others in a sheaf, and that the relief of each subunit conforms with the general features of invariant plane strain.

Oxygen on Pd(100): Order, reconstruction, and desorption
S.‐L. Chang,Patricia A. Thiel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the temperature and coverage-dependent transformations of the ordered structures of oxygen on Pd(100) and showed that the onset of p(5×5) formation is associated with an increase in oxygen sticking coefficient.

Void Nucleation in Passivated Interconnect Lines: Effects of Site Geometries, Interfaces, and Interface Flaws
TL;DR: In this paper, a discussion of sources of tensile stress in passivated aluminum interconnect lines leads to an upper limit of 2 GPa, where the authors suggest that even at this high stress, nucleation rates are far too low to account for observed rates of voiding.
