In light of recent advances in the analysis of depth-sensing indentation data and of the importance of this technique in the study of the mechanical properties of thin films, a special discussion session was held in order to explore the state of the art and to provide an informal forum for discussion. This is a brief review of that discussion. The discussion was focused by the four main sources of deviation from model behavior described in the previous paper.

Potential Benefits

AbstractIn this paper we review the advances in understanding ofmicrostructural evolution during irradiation in pressure vessel steels. A particular focus is the benefits that arise from combining microstructural techniques on characterising the microstructure, especially the copper clusters. In addition to experimental techniques the importance of developing microstructurally based models linking the microstructural features to mechanical properties behaviour will be demonstrated. This paper will consider the recent advances in understanding in this area, and highlight the potential benefits that can be gained from a thorough understanding of the materials response to irradiation.

In this review, recent advances on the measurement and modeling of elastic properties of cortical and trabecular bone are presented. Bone is a multifunctional material which among its other functions serves as a support for other tissues in the body. As a structural material it is stiff, strong, tough, lightweight and is adaptable. Its excellent mechanical properties are due to its complex, composite and hierarchical structure. In this paper, we outline the experimental approaches that have been used to characterize bone?s structure, composition and elastic properties at several different length scales. Then, we discuss different modeling approaches that have been employed to compute bone?s elastic moduli. We conclude by discussing the challenges and open issues in this area. Analysis of bone is of importance in orthopedics. Also, gained knowledge on bone can be used by engineers to design new bioinspired composite materials for a wide range of engineering applications.

Soft Magnetic Composites

During the past 50 years, the aim to reduce the eddy current losses in magnetic cores to a minimum led to the formulation of new materials starting from electrically insulated iron powders, today called Soft Magnetic Composites (SMC). Nowadays, this promising branch of materials is still held back by the mandatory tradeoff between energetic, electrical, magnetic, and mechanical performances. In most cases, the research activity focuses on the deposition of an insulating/binding layer, being one of the critical points in optimizing the final composite. This insulation usually is achieved by either inorganic or organic layer constituents. The main difference is the temperature limit since most inorganic materials typically withstand higher treatment temperatures. As a result, the literature shows many materials and process approaches, each one designed to meet a specific application. The present work summarizes the recent advances in state of the art, analyzing the relationship among material compositions and magnetic and mechanical properties. Each coating shows its own processing sets, which vary from simple mechanical mixing to advanced chemical methods to metallurgical treatments. From state of the art, Aluminum coatings are characterized by higher current losses and low mechanical properties. In contrast, higher mechanical properties are obtained by adopting Silicon coatings. The phosphates coatings show the best-balanced overall properties. Each coating type was thoroughly investigated and then compared with the literature background highlighting. The present paper thus represents a critical overview of the topic that could serve as a starting point for the design and development of new and high-performing coating solutions for SMCs. However, global research activity continuously refines the recipes, introducing new layer materials. The following steps and advances will determine whetherthese materials breakthrough in the market.
