ABSTRACT: The EXCITE (Electron and X-ray microscopy Community for structural and chemical Imaging Techniques for Earth materials) project, unites leading European facilities for electron and X-ray microscopy of earth materials. This project is mainly focused in providing access to existing high-end facilities in the field of earth and material sciences and, by this, enabling knowledge and experience exchanging ...
ABSTRACT: Liquid film migration is of great practical importance in materials engineering. The phenomenon has been shown to depend on thermal gradients and coherency strain, but no single driving mechanism seems capable of justifying the whole array of experimental observations. On the other hand, the inevitable capillarity effects are often disregarded due to the unknown 3-dimensional geometry of the system. H...
