Direct Reduction processes use gases (CO and H2) for iron reduction and production of sponge iron or direct reduced iron (DRI). The generation of this gas occurs through methane reforming, which can be done in a reformer ...

High voltage XLPE cable cores have been subjected to wet ageing following the recommendations in CIGRE TB 722. The electrical ageing was performed at 500 Hz and 10 kV/mm. Vented water trees were detected initiating and ...

The elastic and anelastic properties of a single crystal of Co-doped pnictide Ba(Fe0.957Co0.043)2As2 have been determined by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy in the frequency range 10–500 kHz, both as a function of temperature ...

Commercially pure aluminum with random texture was prestrained either by rolling or by uniaxial compression, and then tested in uniaxial tension to study the transients in flow stress, work hardening and r-value induced ...

Strain-phonon coupling, in terms of the shift in phonon frequencies under biaxial strain, is studied by density functional theory calculations for 20 perovskite oxides strained in their (111) and (001) planes. While the ...

NTNU SmallSat Lab har som mål å bygge en billig og høy ytelse hyperspectral-kamera for å oppdage alge og plankton signaturer fra rommet. Kameraet er laget av optiske COTS komponenter. Det er imidlertid velkjent innen romfart ...

A theory for the strength contribution from precipitates is developed based on the statistical particle-size and shape distributions and the corresponding obstacle strengths. The generic case of spherical precipitates and ...

Uniaxial tensile tests were conducted at room temperature, 100 °C and 150 °C, for obtaining necking-corrected stress–strain curves until fracture. The necking correction is based on specimen contours estimated from images ...

There is a huge potential of underground constructions in the Himalayan region for hydropower, transport systems and conservation of environment. However, the tectonic activities have resulted with a fragile regional ...

The link between atomic interactions and functional properties in the fascinating material system called hexagonal manganites is investigated in this thesis. By using both neutron scattering measurements and first principles ...
