Measurement of nuclide cross-sections of spallation residues in 1 A GeV 238U + proton collisions [PDF]
, 2003 The production of heavy nuclides from the spallation-evaporation reaction of 238U induced by 1 GeV protons was studied in inverse kinematics. The evaporation residues from tungsten to uranium were identified in-flight in mass and atomic number.

Laser Driven Compression to Investigate Shock-Induced Melting of Metals
Metals, 2014 High pressure shock compression induces a large temperature increase due to the dissipation within the shock front. Hence, a solid sample subjected to intense shock loading can melt, partially or fully, either on compression or upon release from the ...

On the role of secondary pions in spallation targets [PDF]
, 2016 We use particle-transport simulations to show that secondary pions play a crucial role for the development of the hadronic cascade and therefore for the production of neutrons and photons from thick spallation targets.

Numerical simulation of stress wave propagation in joint rock specimens with cavity defects
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The process of crack initiation, propagation, and coalescence is the essential cause of rock failure. A three-dimensional numerical model based on microscopic damage mechanics is adopted to simulate the failure process and acoustic emissions (AEs) of a ...

Investigations of fast neutron production by 190 GeV/c muon interactions on different targets [PDF]
, 2001 The production of fast neutrons (1 MeV - 1 GeV) in high energy muon-nucleus interactions is poorly understood, yet it is fundamental to the understanding of the background in many underground experiments. The aim of the present experiment (CERN NA55) was

Mechanisms of High Temperature Degradation of Thermal Barrier Coatings. [PDF]
, 2009 Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are crucial for increasing the turbine inlet temperature (and hence efficiency) of gas turbine engines. The thesis describes PhD research aimed at improving understanding of the thermal cycling failure mechanisms of ...
