Some elevated temperature mechanical properties of Magnox AL80
The influence of grain-boundary hydride (MgH2) precipitation on the mechanical properties of Magnox AL80 has been investigated by carrying out slow tensile and fatigue tests. The presence of hydride precipitates ...

Grain boundary precipitation in Magnox AL8O
Grain boundary precipitates in Magnox ALSO (Mg-0.8% Al) formed after certain heat treatments have been identified as magnesium hydride, MgH2. The solvus temperature for the precipitates was found to be in the ran...

Plasmons: quanta for micro-region temperature measurement
An analysis is made of the shifts in the plasmon loss energies for a 1 keV electron beam scattered from pure tin as a function of temperature in ultra-high vacuum. The plasmons in tin are free-electron like an...

Non-propagating fatigue cracks in an aluminium-1/2% magnesium alloy
Non-propagating fatigue cracks have been observed at the roots of sharp notches in specimens of a single-phase Al-1/2% Mg alloy. The rate of fatigue crack growth, and the extent of cyclic deformation on either...
