Numerical study on the chemical and electrochemical coupling mechanisms for concrete under combined chloride-sulfate attack

Cementitious materials exposed to marine and saline environments are commonly threatened by a combined attack of sulfate and chloride ions. This study developed a numerical framework to investigate two combined coupling mechanisms of 1) coupled solid-liquid chemical reactions for competitive chloride-sulfate attack and 2) electrostatic multi...

Beam displacement and blur caused by fast electron beam deflection

Electrostatic beam blankers are an alternative to photo-emission sources for generating pulsed electron beams for Time-resolved Cathodoluminescence and Ultrafast Electron Microscopy. While the properties of beam blankers have been extensively investigated in the past for applications in lithography, characteristics such as the influence of...
