71Friction stir welding — (FSW) is a solid state joining process (meaning the metal is not melted during the process) and is used for applications where the original metal characteristics must remain unchanged as far as possible. This process is primarily used on aluminum …
72Rock microstructure — includes the texture of a rock and the small scale rock structures. The words texture and microstructure are interchangeable, with the latter preferred in modern geological literature. However, texture is still acceptable because it is a useful… …
73Crash simulation — A crash simulation is a virtual recreation of a destructive crash test of a car or a highway guard rail system using a computer simulation in order to examine the level of safety of the car and its occupants. Crash simulations are used by… …
74Peridynamics — is a formulation of continuum mechanics that is oriented toward deformations with discontinuities, especially fractures. Advantages of peridynamics over other methodsThe peridynamic theory is based on integral equations, in contrast with the… …

76Post-glacial rebound — A model of present day mass change due to post glacial rebound and the reloading of the ocean basins with seawater. Blue and purple areas indicate rising due to the removal of the ice sheets. Yellow and red areas indicate falling as mantle… …
77Way up structure — A Way up structure is a characteristic relationship observed in a sedimentary or volcanic rock, or sequence of rocks, that makes it possible to determine whether they are the right way up (i.e in the attitude in which they were originally… …
78ECHIDNA - High Resolution Powder Diffractometer — ECHIDNA is the name of the new neutron High Resolution Powder Diffractometer at Australia s new research reactor OPAL, ANSTO. The instrument serves to determine the crystalline structures of materials using neutron radiation analogical to X ray… …
