Quasi-static and Dynamic Mechanical Performance of Glass Microsphere- and Cenosphere-based 316L Syntactic Foams
Abstract Syntactic foams are produced by adding hollow particles to a solid matrix material. So far, few processes exist that allow manufacturing of such materials using steel matrices. Extremely versatile in this respect are powder metallurgical...

Site-bond Modelling of Structure-failure Relations in Quasi-brittle Media
Abstract The non-linear behaviour of quasi-brittle media emerges from distributed micro-cracking. This is analysed conveniently by discrete lattice models. A 3D site-bond model is specialised here for materials with three-phase microstructures:...

Ultra-grain Refinement Effect on Tensile and Phase Transformation Behaviour in a Metastable Austenitic Steel Charged in Hydrogen Gas
Abstract To ensure the safety of hydrogen systems, materials must be selected according to strength levels and susceptibility to hydrogen. Austenitic steels are notoriously resistant to hydrogen embrittlement, but usually suffer from relatively low...
