  2. Cottrell atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cottrell_atmosphere

    In BCC metals, interstitial sites of an unstrained lattice are equally favorable. The interstitial solutes create elastic dipoles. [ 14 ] However, once a strain is applied on the lattice, such as that formed by a dislocation, 1/3 of the sites become more favorable than the other 2/3.

  3. Interstitial site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_site

    The same is true in a unit cell; no matter how the atoms are arranged, there will be interstitial sites present between the atoms. These sites or holes can be filled with other atoms (interstitial defect). The picture with packed circles is only a 2D representation. In a crystal lattice, the atoms (spheres) would be packed in a 3D arrangement ...

  4. Interstitial defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_defect

    Interstitial atoms (blue) occupy some of the spaces within a lattice of larger atoms (red) In materials science, an interstitial defect is a type of point crystallographic defect where an atom of the same or of a different type, occupies an interstitial site in the crystal structure.

  5. Crystallographic defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_defect

    A nearby pair of a vacancy and an interstitial is often called a Frenkel defect or Frenkel pair. This is caused when an ion moves into an interstitial site and creates a vacancy. Due to fundamental limitations of material purification methods, materials are never 100% pure, which by definition induces defects in crystal structure.

  6. Nursing home - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursing_home

    Nursing homes may also be referred to as care homes, skilled nursing facilities (SNF) or long-term care facilities. Often, these terms have slightly different meanings to indicate whether the institutions are public or private, and whether they provide mostly assisted living , or nursing care and emergency medical care .

  7. Hume-Rothery rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hume-Rothery_rules

    Fundamentally, the Hume-Rothery rules are restricted to binary systems that form either substitutional or interstitial solid solutions. However, this approach limits assessing advanced alloys which are commonly multicomponent systems. Free energy diagrams (or phase diagrams) offer in-depth knowledge of equilibrium restraints in complex systems.

  8. Burkholderia cepacia complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burkholderia_cepacia_complex

    BCC infection is a contraindication for lung transplantation and cystic fibrosis patients infected with BCC may be excluded from transplantation due to the increased mortality. [11] Additionally, lung transplant recipients infected with B. cenocepacia are six times more likely to die within a year of transplantation than those infected with ...

  9. Solid solution strengthening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution_strengthening

    Interstitial solid solutions form when the solute atom is small enough (radii up to 57% the radii of the parent atoms) [2] to fit at interstitial sites between the solvent atoms. The atoms crowd into the interstitial sites, causing the bonds of the solvent atoms to compress and thus deform (this rationale can be explained with Pauling's rules ).
