Austenite Martensite transformation
Does any one knows a good reference about lath martensite?
Why we see the retained austenite? why doesn't it transformto martensite? What's its effect on the phase transformation? Does the plasticity change the morphology of the transfromation? How about the speed of the transfromation? When should we expect to see the lath martensite? What's the effect of the diagonal terms in the transformation matrix? What's the effect of the shear components? Is there any difference between 2d and 3d simulations, and which one is more realistic?
Natural Frequencies for all elements in the Periodic table.
Hi,
I am interested to know the natural frequencies of elements in the periodic table. I made some attempt to reveal this information but surprisingly ended with nothing. Perhaps I did not search hard. Does anyone know about the natural frequencies of elements in periodic table.
Sincerely,

On digitizing and editing figures
Recently I have observed that if I don't perform a routine task for a few months, I tend to forget the steps needed in the process. I have to relearn the process and that's a waste of time. The intention of this blog post is to provide a list of tips for my use which can also be of use to other Linux users. I like free software. Most of the software on this list can be downloaded from SourceForge or some such place.
Paper
Dear All,
I am trying to get the paper as the following, but I failed by all the ways, Could someone be kind enough to send me ?!!!
Panontin, T. L. and M. R. Hill (1996). "The effect of residual stresses
on brittle and ductile fracture initiation predicted by micromechanical models."
International Journal of Fracture 82: pp. 317-333.
Thank in advance,

Study of mechanical Properties by Nanoindentation
I have started to study the effects of roughness, indentation size effect,
Tip bluntness on nanoindentation data.
I will be thankfull if some one send me some resources in this context and
also explaining the strain gradient plasticity .To safiul.mollick [at] saha.ac.in
Professor T.H. Lin passed away
A message from Woody Ju. It is with deepest sadness and sorrow that I inform you that Professor T.H. Lin, our kindest role model and gentleman, passed away on June 18, 2007; he was 96 years old. Prof. Lin worked until last Friday.
He is survived by his sons (Prof. Robert Lin of UC Berkeley, Prof. Jim Lin of UCSD) and his daughter (Rita).
