The methods of group theory have been used to decompose the crystal structures of centrosymmetric perovskites, ABX 3 , that exhibit zone-boundary tilting of the BX 6 octahedra. For the fourteen space-groups consistent with these phenomena, the associated structures are decomposed in terms of the magnitudes of an appro…

We describe a nanocrystal self-assembly method for the preparation of rare earth fluoride nanotube (ReF-NT) arrays and magnetite-doped rare earth fluoride nanotubes (Fe 3 O 4 -ReF-NTs) by using porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) as a hard template. The ReF-NTs can be simply prepared by the impregnation of α-NaYF 4 nan…

Hot tearing, or hot cracking, is one of the most severe solidification defects commonly encountered during casting. It is such a complicated phenomenon that a full understanding is still not yet achieved, though it has been extensively investigated for decades. Most contributions are still based on qualitative charact…

Abstract The AVR pebble bed reactor (46 MWth) was operated 1967 – 1988 at coolant outlet temperatures up to 990°C, which are suitable for process heat applications. Also because of a lack of other experience the AVR operation is a basis for future HTRs. This paper deals with insufficiently published but unresolved saf…
