Oxford
Micromechanics
Group
The Oxford Micromechanics Group is based within the Department of Materials, at
the University of Oxford. We use experiments and computer simulations to characterize the
properties, and understand the mechanical behaviour of materials from a microstructural
prospective.
Meet us at: RMS EBSD Conference 2012 NPL, Teddington, UK, 26-28 March 2012 - AJW invited talk on 'Strain Mapping with EBSD: A Review of Advances and Challenges' + plus presentations from Ben Britton and Jun Jiang Int Conf on Strength of Materials Bengaluru, India, 19-24 August 2012 - the group have submitted several abstracts on micro-cantilever testing and EBSD strain mapping Dislocations 2012 Budapest, Hungary, 27-31 August 2012 - the group will be submitting several abstracts New Papers: High resolution electron backscatter diffraction measurements of elastic strain variations in the presence of larger lattice rotations TB Britton and AJ Wilkinson Ultramicrscopy, (2012), available on line from 18 January 2012 doi:10.1016/j.ultramic.2012.01.004 Mechanical properties of ion-implanted tungsten–5wt% tantalum DEJ Armstrong, AJ Wilkinson and SG Roberts Physica Scripta, (2011), vol.
