This talk will focus on a synchrotron experimental programme developed for aerospace materials design and testing. The unique properties of the beamlines available at the Australian synchrotron facility have been applied in various modalities. A brief overview of current and future work is presented based on case studies developed on two beamlines,
1. A dedicated synchrotron Small Angle...
A new SAXS-WAXS methodology has been developed at the Australian Synchrotron for the structural analysis of carbon fibres. The new technique –referred to as serial SAXS-WAXS fibre scattering is used to map the microstructural properties of single carbon fibres, ranging in diameter from 5 to 8 µm. The new SAXS/WAXS beamline end station upgrade has made feasible to measure single carbon fibre...
The OPAL research reactor at ANSTO has several instruments available for materials science and engineering applications. The instruments have a unique non-destructive ability to assist academia and industry in solving industry relevant problems. The role of the Industrial Liaison Office (ILO) at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering (ACNS) focuses on connecting and advocating ACNS...
