During last months I was studing carefully the literature and lectures accessible in the net.
Also I spent a lot of time for prepring for exams

We considered possible slip and twinning systems for any desired orientation of the crystal. Depending on the adopted strain tensor, which can describe simple compression or rolling, different values are obtained for the selected orientation of the stresses described by Euler angles. Through the rotation of vectors of the unit cell is an altered relationship between the angular direction on the stress and possible slip systems. In the first step a rate of deformation (macroscopic) is assumed, an equivalent strain tensoris calculated using the approach full constrains (FC) initial deformation for each orientation, represented as a cube with a side equal to 10 °. Five elements considered combinations of 7-elements selected collections slip, the choice was made by taking into account the largest shear stress for slip data in relation to the adopted apriori critical shear stress. Then solved (nk) = (7 5) = 21 systems of linear equations and five function minimized the sum of the products of the critical shear stress and deformation modules for data of slip systems. With so selected strains five nonlinear equations were solved amount of an unknown scalar product of the stress tensor and tensor Schmidt (hence the notation Lequeu), raised to the power of n <= 20 By minimizing the corresponding function is possible to approximate the solution of these equations and calculating the stress tensor and the setting of Secant visco-plastic modules susceptibility grains. The problem arose when calculating the inverse matrix of these modules due to the generally poor conditioning of the matrix, so their inverse matrices can contain large numerical errors.

EMF study in liquid Al-Li-Zn alloys, in effect calculation of the partial excess thermodynamic properties for lithium content changed from 0.1 to 0.9. It will to be planned a restriction of these examination to liquid alloys at Al/Zn rich side. Continuation experimental study and simultaneously refomrmulation of a applied thermodynamic model for ternary alloys in order to compare with expeiment.
Improvement of free volume model on third component to denisty model.

Photochemical deposition - preliminary results

This method is based on photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide. The UV photon creats electron hole pair. This electron can reduce the silver cation which then deposits on titanium dioxide substrate. At first this method was used for creation of homogenius silver layer with well controlled thickness. First results and literature announcements showed that in the first stage this proces leads directly to nanoparticles deposition.

In my experiment the source of light was 405nm laser. Silver atoms came from a few solutions: 1) solution used previously for electroless deposition, 2)succinimide, 3)solution of silver nitrate.

Obtained microstructure was 0,5um squares, below 20nm particles with nanorods and about 70nm particles respectively for mentioned solutions.

Silver nitrate was the best solution and it was chosen for next research.

There is is an issue with results reccurence.
