Effect of Hot Rolling and Intermittent Annealing on the Texture Evolution of Monotectoid Bcc Zr-nb

Evolution of texture in an ultrafine and nano grained magnesium alloy

The evolution of texture was discussed during the formation of ultra-fine and nano grains in a magnesium alloy severely deformed through accumulative back extrusion (ABE). The microstructure and texture obtained after applying multiple deformation passes at temperatures of 100 and 250°C were characterized. The results showed that after single ABE pass at 100°C an ultrafine/nano grained microstr...

Interrelationship of interdiffusion and microstructure in thin-film systems

Simultaneous fitting of independently measured sputter-depth profiles of intensities of Auger electrons or photoelectrons from different Auger transitions (AES) or core levels (XPS) is shown to increase the reliability of the thus determined concentration-depth profiles in diffusion-annealed thin film systems, as compared to the usually applied single profile fitting. In this context an extensi...

Biological Application of Layered Double Hydroxides in Drug Delivery Systems

This review focuses on the extensive study of different layered double hydroxides (LDHs)nanostructures and also their biological and physicochemical (in vitro) properties to encapsulateand deliver drugs with a recognized pharmacokinetic profile in a sustained/modified manner forbetter remedial efficacy contrasted to the corresponding conventional treatments using different<br ...

View-Dependent Layered Projective Texture Maps

Capturing and rendering of real scenes in an immersive virtual environment is still a challenging task. In this paper we present a novel workflow, which emphasizes high-quality, view-dependent projective texturing at low memory cost, while allowing artist intervention to ensure image quality control. First, a small set of photographs of a real scene are used to create a 3D model, using standard...
