A mean grain size of P/M Ti materials with CNTs and no CNT is around 6μm and 5μm, respectively, and no significant difference between them is observed.

Introduction The capability of MMW signals to penetrate obscurants has been well understood for a number of years, but fabrication of a real-time passive MMW imager in a cost effective system has been very challenging.
Figure 1 shows predominantly c-axis peaks of the individual material layers, while no a-axis oriented grains or domains were observed in the YBCO film implying excellent and uniform quality epitaxial grown materials.

Nowadays, an increasing number of studies are focused on Mg and Ti.
From the in-plane view of the Ti substrate/oxide composite, it can be remarkable that the size of the grain is very fine.

The main purpose of the work was to elaborate of a method allowing to control numbers and morphology of the second intermetallic phase in the Zn-Cu-Ti single crystals and in consequence possibilities to produce structures with precisely defined properties.
After crossing this critical rate, the resulting structure were columnar grains elongated in the growth direction.

Thickness of the TPL and the amount of cement for the preparation of fine-grained concrete were optimized, see Tab. 1.

However, a large number of engineering problems involve the presence of unsaturated zones.
This is the rearrangement of grains due to changing stress, resulting in a reduction in void ratio and instant settlement.

However, investigations of the boundary properties and accommodation processes in the bulk of the fine-grained material are hindered by the experimental difficulties.
The brittleness of the interface indicates the accumulation of a large number of stable defects such as microcracks on the interfaces after plastic deformation.

At high scanning speed during LSR of 304 AISI samples, which is the case of the present work, Akgun and Inal [16] reported in their work that because dendritic growth follows substrate grain direction, dendrites can reach the surface with no or minimum disruption by their neighbors, thus resulting in a more uniformly oriented structure.

Table 1: Space Groups, Atomic positions (Wyckoff positions), number of formula unit per unit cell (Z) in MgZn2 and MgCu2 type of structures.
The measurement has been performed at 30 oC after activation at 150 o C (vacuum before measurement) to obtain activated grains.

Glass-ceramics are fine-grained polycrystalline materials formed through the nucleation and controlled crystallization of a glass of a suitable composition [1].
This behavior can be explained analyzing Eq. 3, that shows the relationship between the Tp from the DTA and N, the number of nuclei per volume unit in a glass [11]: ln N = mEa/RTp + cte (3) where m is the dimensionality of the crystal growth.
