The correlation of ultrasonic attenuation, microstructure and ductile to brittle transition temperature in very low carbon steels
A study of the frequency dependence of the ultrasonic attenuation and the ductile to brittle transition temperature as a function of microstructure has been carried out for a very low carbon (0.02 wt%) steel. ...

Non-Hookean Behaviour of Strong Carbon Fibres
FOLLOWING the work of Watt, Phillips and Johnson1, carbon fibres of very high axial stiffness and strength have been prepared at AERE, Harwell. There is an appreciable increase in the apparent modulus of these fi...

Aggregation and Dispersal of Radiation Damage in Graphite
FOLLOWING pioneering work by Grenall1, Williamson2 has used the technique of transmission electron microscopy to elucidate some aspects of the behaviour of dislocations in natural crystals of graphite, and Amelin...
