Measurement of the single crystal elasticity matrix of polycrystalline materials (2021)
Journal Article
Dryburgh, P., Li, W., Pieris, D., Fuentes-Domínguez, R., Patel, R., Smith, R. J., & Clark, M. (2022). Measurement of the single crystal elasticity matrix of polycrystalline materials. Acta Materialia, 225, Article 117551. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actamat.2021.117551

Many engineering metals are polycrystalline, as such the elasticity, crystalline orientation and grain distribution are cardinal factors in determining the physical properties of the material. The grain distribution can be measured using a number of... Read More about Measurement of the single crystal elasticity matrix of polycrystalline materials.

Simple method of measuring thicknesses of surface-hardened layers by laser ultrasonic technique (2021)
Journal Article
Lee, Y., Kitazawa, S., & Patel, R. (2021). Simple method of measuring thicknesses of surface-hardened layers by laser ultrasonic technique. Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 60(7), Article 072002. https://doi.org/10.35848/1347-4065/ac030f

We proposed a simple non-contact inspection method using a laser ultrasonic technique to measure the thickness of a surface-hardened layer. This measurement is based on the dependence of a surface-wave velocity on the thickness of the hardened layers...

Single pixel camera methodologies for spatially resolved acoustic spectroscopy (2021)
Journal Article
Patel, R., Sharples, S. D., Clark, M., Somekh, M. G., & Li, W. (2021). Single pixel camera methodologies for spatially resolved acoustic spectroscopy. Applied Physics Letters, 118(5), Article 051102. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0040123

Spatially resolved acoustic spectroscopy (SRAS) is a laser ultrasound technique used to determine the crystallographic orientation (i.e. microstructure) of materials through the generation and measurement of surface acoustic wave velocity on a sample...

Non-destructive detection of machining-induced white layers through grain size and crystallographic texture-sensitive methods (2021)
Journal Article
Brown, M., Pieris, D., Wright, D., Crawforth, P., M'Saoubi, R., McGourlay, J., …Ghadbeigi, H. (2021). Non-destructive detection of machining-induced white layers through grain size and crystallographic texture-sensitive methods. Materials and Design, 200, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2021.109472

Detection of machining-induced white layers is currently a destructive inspection process with a form of cross-sectional microscopy required. This paper, therefore, reports on the development of a novel non-destructive inspection method for detecting...
