Concluding Remarks
So far, the 3DXRD microscope has mainly been applied to fundamental studies in metallurgy. As demonstrated in Chap. 9, the method is sufficiently...

The 3DXRD Microscope
The 3DXRD microscope at ESRF is installed in a separate laboratory, the second experimental hutch at beamline ID11 [1,2]. The beamline is an...

13 Dynamic, One-Dimensional and Miscellaneous Problems
The previous part of this monograph makes it clear that the branch of the Mathematical Theory of Contact Mechanics, which deals with quasistatic...

11 Contact with Wear or Adhesion
In this chapter we present results on models of frictional contact when the wear of the contacting surfaces is taken into account. The importance of...

3 Additional E.ects Involved in Contact
More is involved in contact than just friction, although it is the main process. Indeed, during a contact process elastic or plastic deformations of...

Combining 3DXRD and Absorption Contrast Tomography
The 3DXRD setup sketched in Fig. 3.1 is very similar to the setup typically used for absorption contrast x-ray tomography at synchrotrons....

Multigrain Crystallography
Traditionally, x-ray crystallography is based on either powder diffraction data or single-crystal studies. Both methods have their distinct...

1 Introduction
Considerable progress has been achieved recently in modeling and mathematical analysis of various processes involved in contact between deformable...

6 Stepwise Inflation of a Balloon
When we inflate a balloon in the usual manner, namely by blowing air into it by mouth, we first inhale deeply by expanding our lungs. After that we...

9 Stability of the Spherical Shape
Ever so often we observe that a balloon, which is spherical in the undistorted state, becomes elongated upon inflation so that we obtain a...

Rhombohedral PZT Thin Films Prepared by Sputtering
PZT thin films with a rhombohedral perovskite structure were successfully grown on (111) PLT/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si and (111) Ir/SiO2/Si substrates. The...

Relaxor Superlattices: Artificial Control of the Ordered–Disordered State of B-Site Ions in Perovskites
We have developed a new superlattice technique to artificially control the B-site ordering state. The technique has been applied to Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3,...
