in the present research, damage mechanisms during room temperature uniaxial tensile testing of two different modern high strength dual phase steels,dp780 and dp980, were studied. detailed microstructural characterization of the strained and sectioned samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy (sem). the results revealed that interface decohesion, especially at the triple junctions of...

A variational problem arising as a model in martensitic phase transformation including surface energy is studied. It explains the complex, multi-dimensional pattern of twin branching which is often observed in a martensitic phase near the austenite interface. We prove that a Lavrentiev phenomenon can occur if the domain is a rectangle. We show that this phenomenon disappears under arbitrarily s...

We briefly review the phenomenon of the spin-double refraction that originates at an interface separating a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling from a one without. We demonstrate how this phenomenon in semiconductor heterostructures can produce and control a spin-polarized current without ferromagnetic leads.

This review makes an attempt to give comprehensive description of osseointegration, its history, bone to implant interface, cellular background and the factors involved in the phenomenon termed osseointegration.
