Caron, A., Rabe, U., Rödel, J., Arnold, W.
Scanning probe microscopy techniques enable one to investigate surface properties such as contact stiffness and friction between the probe tip and a sample with nm resolution. So far the bending and...
Stress-induced anisotropy of sintering alumina: Discrete element modelling and experiments (2007)
Wonisch, A., Guillon, O., Kraft, T., Moseler, M., Riedel, H., Rödel, J.
Simulations based on the discrete element method are employed to investigate the anisotropic sintering of alumina. The results are compared with accompanying experiments. It is shown that during...
Mechanical properties of dry-pressed powder compacts: Case study on alumina nanoparticles (2006)
Kounga Njiwa, A.B., Aulbach, E., Rödel, J., Neubrand, A.
Youngs modulus and fracture toughness of dry-pressed powder compacts of nanocrystalline alumina powders have been determined for different relative densities and average grain size. The powder with a...

Bi-layered PZT films by combining thick and thin film technology (2004)
Gebhardt, S., Seffner, L., Schönecker, A., Rödel, J., Beckert, W., Kreher, W., ...
PZT thick films on various substrates are of great interest for applications as pressure sensors, micropumps, ultrasonic and pyroelectric transducers, deformable mirrors and ferroelectric printing...
The effects of composition gradients on the crack propagation in metal/ceramic composites are investigated. It is demonstrated that crack propagation is affected in three different ways by the...
Residual stresses in functionally graded plates (2002)
Neubrand, A., Steffler, E.D., Fett, T., Rödel, J.
Macroscopic residual stresses in Al2O3/Al plates of graded composition were determined experimentally and by the finite element method (FEM). Experimental stress data were determined by sawing a...
