Papers by Keyword: Structure-Sensitive Properties

Abstract: An analysis of grain-size dependent structure-sensitivity of various physical and mechanical properties of nickel is presented, covering the crystal size range from 10 nm to 10 μm. It is shown that the well established general trends regarding defect-sensitivity observed for conventional polycrystalline materials also apply to porosity-free nanomaterials with grain sizes less than 100 nm produced by the electrodeposition process.
