In martensitic transformation in steel, why should we consider BCT by joining the face centered atoms of FCC even though FCC has higher symmetry?

FCC has 3 fold symmetry but BCT doesn't. So why should we draw a BCT inside a FCC and name it as martensite. A reverse can also be done where we can draw BCT and they get a FCC out of it. If so in...

Solution of 2D convection diffusion heat equation using MATLAB ?

This is a polymer heating problem. Polymer enters at around 180C (x=0) in the barrel. Also barrel initial temperature is 180 (t=0). Some heat Is added along whole length of barrel q. We have to...

Possible problem for showing 0.2 sun intensity instead of 1 sun intensity in AAA class Newport solar simulator?

We have a AAA class Newport solar simulator. We changed the Xenon Arc Lamp recently (XBO450W, Make:OSRAM) as the lifetime got over. However, the intensity is coming to be only 0.2 sun instead of 1...

How to match the XRD of a compound for which there is no JCPDS file ? Is there any other characterization to claim the synthesis of desired compound?

I have synthesized LiMgF3 using the starting precursors LiF and MgF2 via solid state diffusion method. Now I am looking for some characterization to claim the desired product, as there is no...

How do you determine at what concentration of antimicrobial should you subject the pathogen to?

I am making an antimicrobial extract from fungal metabolite but the fungi are not known. So I don't know at what concentration I should subject them to but what I do know I will test them against...

Has anyone done lab models on the influence of dead-end pores on mass transport in saturated flow?

Groundwater flows through voids and passages that are interconnected within porous media. Some of the pores are referred to as a dead-end pore space within the porous matrix. The presence of...
