Understanding Grain Boundary Segregation - A Route to Developing New Advanced Engineering Materials (ARC Discovery Project Administered by University of Sydney) (2012-2014)
Abstract
This project will investigate atomic-scale grain boundary segregation - one of the most important factors influencing the properties of engineering alloys. This will be applied in the development of new Ti, Zr and nanocrystalline alloys with a large potential market and for which Australia is extremely well positioned to become a major producer.
