Scanning AC nanocalorimetry study of Zr/B reactive multilayers

Submitted by nanomicroscience on

The reaction of Zr/B multilayers with a 50 nm modulation period has been studied using scanning AC nanocalorimetry at a heating rate of approximately 1,000 K/s. We describe a data reduction algorithm to determine the rate of heat released from the multilayer. Two different exothermic peaks are identified in the nanocalorimetry signal: a shallow peak at low temperature (200 - 650°C) and a sharp peak at elevated temperature (650 - 800°C).

Minisymposium on Nano and Biomechanics at 2014 USNCTAM

Submitted by Harold S. Park on

Dear Mechanics Colleagues:

A pleasant reminder that we invite you to submit an abstract to a minisymposium on "Nano and Bio
Mechanics" for the 2014 USNCTAM, June 15-20, 2014, to be held at
Michigan State University. This minisymposium will focus on the
development and application of

both experimental techniques and computational models and methods to

problems of interest in the fields of nano and bio mechanics. Topics of

interest will include, but are not limited to:
