Safe air travel is an expectation that we often invest little or no thought in. Fortunately,
the industry has evolved to a stage where major air accidents are rare. Numerous lessons
in aviation safety have unfortunately ...

Clancy, Marie
(University of Limerick, 2010)
This thesis examines the formation of martensite in Ni-based super-alloys in both
an alloy-coating system and in the bulk alloy, NiPtAl. The alloy-coating study
was designed to test the hypothesis that an extra layer of ...
