11. Computational Insights into Atomic Scale Wear Processes in Cemented Carbides
Abstract : As Ti-alloys become more and more utilized the need for efficient and robust manufacturing of Ti-alloy components increase in importance. Ti-alloys are more difficult to machine than e.g. steel, mainly due to their poor thermal conductivity leading to rapid tool wear. READ MORE

12. Metal film growth on weakly-interacting substrates : Stochastic simulations and analytical modelling
Abstract : Thin films are nanoscale layers of material, with exotic properties useful in diverse areas, ranging from biomedicine to nanoelectronics and surface protection. Film properties are not only determined by their chemical composition, but also by their microstructure and roughness, features that depend crucially on the growth process due to the inherent out-of equilibrium nature of the film deposition techniques.

13. Corrosion resistant alumina-forming alloys for lead-cooled reactors
Abstract : Generation IV nuclear power technologies provide attractive solutions to the common issues related to conventional nuclear power plants currently in operation worldwide. Through a significant reduction of the long-term radiotoxicity of nuclear waste, a more efficient use of nuclear fuel resources, and implementation of inherent safety features, Generation IV will make nuclear power sustainable and thus increase the public acceptance of nuclear power.

14. Adsorbate Interactions and Growth Morphology
Abstract : The theory of growth has transformed substantially during the past decade. Whereas early theoretical methods were largely empirical, phenomenological, and continuum-based, today's tools include a quantitative, atomistic methodology on a first-principles basis. READ MORE

15. Switching Kinetics and Charge Transport in Organic Ferroelectrics
Abstract : The continued digitalization of our society means that more and more things are getting connected electronically. Since currently used inorganic electronics are not well suited for these new applications because of costs and environmental issues, organic electronics can play an important role here. READ MORE
