The increase in strength due to the Hall-Petch effect, reduced strain hardening capacity, a
reduced ductility, and changes in deformation mechanisms are all effects of reducing grain …

Nanomechanics emerged as chemists and physicists began fabricating nanoscale objects.
However, there are some materials that have neither been fabricated nor mechanical …

Aging societies suffer from an increasing incidence of bone fractures. Bone strength
depends on the amount of mineral measured by clinical densitometry, but also on the …

In this paper, the structural design and experiment of MEMS resonators for accurately
measuring Young's modulus is described. To establish an accurate measurement technique …

Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, mithilfe von mikromechanischen Methoden ein besseres
Verständnis über mikrostrukturelle Inhomogenitäten und den Auswirkungen von …

In this work, the deformation behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V micro-pillars was studied via
compression tests at room temperature. Micro-pillars containing either the single α phase …

In this paper, mask-free silicon underetching process was first applied in the analysis of
shape formation of single crystal silicon (SCS) nanopore fabricated by three-step wet …

There is substantial concern about the phase change to artificial ferrite or martensite in
commercial austenitic stainless steels during intense focused-ion-beam milling. In this work …

This thesis focuses on the plasticity of Fe-Mn-C twinning-induced plasticity steel micro-pillars
purposely oriented for different deformation mechanisms and the nature of strengthening …

Kurzzusammenfassung/Summary Formgedächtnislegierungen (FGL) stehen seit Jahren im
FoNus industrieller und aNademischer Forschungsvorhaben. FGL zeichnen sich in diesem …
