Summary on Grant Application Form
The application is for a three month visiting fellowship to enable Professor R.D. Knutsen of South Africa to assist us in carrying out a feasibility study using a newly commisioned high resolution FEGSEM-EBSD system, on the application of the technique to the measurement of deformed and recovered microstructures in aluminium alloys. Samples deformed/annealed before his visit will be studied by fine-step linescanning, and the stored EBSD diffraction patterns will be analysed off-line. Techniques of pattern analysis to assess defect content, cell boundary width and small misorientations will be developed.
