The first Elinvar alloy, FeNiCr, which has invariant elastic modulus over a wide temperature range, was discovered almost 100 years ago by Guillaume. The physical origin of such an anomaly has been ...

Nanoindentation is a measurement technique which is important in measuring Young’s modulus and hardness in thin films and any other situations involving the measurement of limited amounts of material.

The objective of this research is to address the rut problems in asphalt pavements and to resist the permanent plastic deformation with the increasing heavy traffic loads. In this paper, a new type ...
