Stage 1 included identification of all material which had been published following a peer-reviewed process (original or policy articles).
The identification of an appropriate material for a specific application is however tedious, since different measures for swelling are used in literature.
An important hurdle to overcome in the development of MFC array systems is the identification of an electrode material that is durable, conductive, biocompatible, and easily fabricated [33].
The second part is associated with the estimation of the residual stresses within an adhesive in an assembly and the identification of the material parameters of a 3D elastic plastic Mahnken Schlimmer type model, for tensile/compression shear proportional monotonic mechanical loads and for a temperature range between 20 °C and −60 °C.
After identification of the material parameters, a parametric study provides, for a given carbon content and grain size of the ferrite matrix, the optimum martensite volume fraction, leading either to the maximum strength ductility product or to the maximum strength under the constraint of a minimum ductility.
The experimental results were subsequently used for the identification of the material parameters of a constitutive model for granular materials recently proposed by Bier and Hartmann [A finite strain constitutive model for metal powder compaction using a unique and convex single surface yield function. accepted for publication by European Journal of Mechanics, Series A/Solids 2006.].
XRD is a very versatile tool and its data provide us with information on the phase identification of an unknown crystalline material; the atomic spacing; the orientation of a single crystal or grain; and the size, shape and internal stress of small crystalline regions (Cullity 1978; Langford 1975).
For researchers in this field, identification of an appropriate reference material for toxicity studies, which is presently unavailable, is a top priority.
The performance of new detection technologies like the ambient temperature cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) detectors is of interest for search and identification of radioactive material in a range of applications.
The material identification of a single grain that composes primitive materials becomes possible by a routine process that can be performed in an ordinary laboratory.
