A novel phase field material point method is introduced for robust simulation of dynamic fracture in elastic media considering the most general case of anisotropic surface energy. Anisotropy is explicitly introduced through a properly defined crack d...

The role of microstructural development in the hydrothermal corrosion of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogues in simulated PWR conditions (2019)
Journal Article
Karimi, G., Carrington, M., Thomas, J., Shipway, P., Stewart, D., & Hussain, T. (2019). The role of microstructural development in the hydrothermal corrosion of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogues in simulated PWR conditions. Corrosion Science, 159, Article 108141. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.corsci.2019.108141

The corrosion behaviour of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogue materials in PWR-simulating conditions was investigated. The cast alloy exhibited localised corrosion at the boundary between the matrix and the M7C3 carbides, with this being attributed t...

Journal Article
Thomas-Hillman, I., Stevens, L. A., Lange, M., Möllmer, J., Lewis, W., Dodds, C., …Laybourn, A. (2019). Developing a sustainable route to environmentally relevant metal-organic frameworks: ultra-rapid synthesis of MFM-300(Al) using microwave heating. Green Chemistry, 21(18), 5039-5045. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9gc02375e

NO2, SO2 and CO2 are major air pollutants causing significant environmental and health problems. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), in particular [Al2(OH)2(C16O8H6)](H2O)6 (trivial names: NOTT-300/MFM-300(Al)), have shown great promise for capturing th...
