Crack Detection Method Applied to 3D Computed Tomography Images of Baked Carbon Anodes
Carbon anodes used in the aluminium industry were imaged through destructive and non-destructive testing (NDT) methods. For the latter case, computed tomography (CT), which has previously been used to map the 3D apparent density distribution, was ...

A super-ductile alloy for the die-casting of aluminium automotive body structural components [PDF]
Super-ductile die-cast aluminium alloys are critical to future light-weighting of automotive body structures. This paper introduces a die-cast aluminium alloy that can satisfy the requirements of these applications.

Drop-coated Titanium Dioxide Memristors [PDF]
The fabrication of memristors by drop-coating sol-gel Ti(OH)$_4$ solution onto either aluminium foil or sputter-coated aluminium on plastic is presented. The gel layer is thick, 37$\mu$m, but both devices exhibit good memristance I-V profiles. The drop coated aluminium foil memristors compare favourably with the sputter-coated ones, demonstrating an ...

Aluminium toxicosis: a review of toxic actions and effects
Aluminium (Al) is frequently accessible to animal and human populations to the extent that intoxications may occur. Intake of Al is by inhalation of aerosols or particles, ingestion of food, water and medicaments, skin contact, vaccination, dialysis and ...

Micro/Nanostructure and tribological characteristics of pressureless sintered carbon nanotubes reinforced aluminium matrix composites [PDF]
This study reports the manufacture, microstructure, and tribological behaviour of carbon nanotube reinforced aluminium composites against pure aluminium. The specimens were fabricated using powder metallurgy method. The nanotubes in weight percentages of

Microscopic quantum point contact formation as the electromigration mechanism in granular superconductor nanowires [PDF]
Granular aluminium is a high kinetic inductance thin film superconductor which, when formed into nanowires can undergo an intrinsic electromigration process. We use a combination of experimental and computational approaches to investigate the role of grain morphology and distribution in granular aluminium thin films, when formed into nanowire ...
