Large volume presses are used to simulate extreme environments within the Earth, enabling the investigation of the physical properties of subsurface materials. However, existing pressure calibration methods do not facilitate in situ observation of continuously varying chamber pressures. The Mn-Cu alloy, known for its piezoresistive properties, has not been extensively studied under ultra-high temperatures. This study investigates the piezoresistive effect of a Mn-Cu alloy wire across a temperature range of room temperature to 1000 °C and pressures up to 4.5 GPa. The results demonstrate that the Mn-Cu alloy wire can be a reliable manometer for in situ pressure monitoring in large volume presses, providing accurate absolute pressure measurements.

Workers involved in the decommissioning and removal of radioactive material from nuclear power plants can come into contact with tritiated dust from stainless steel. This study aimed to investigate metal penetration and permeation after skin contamination with these particles. Static diffusion Franz cells were used with intact, damaged, or broken human skin.

This study explores the characteristics and potential engineering applications of Cu-Al-Mn and Cu-Al-Be-Mn shape memory alloys (SMAs). The research investigates the chemical composition, transformation temperatures, and mechanical properties of these SMAs when incorporated into Al metal matrix composites (MMCs). It was found that the addition of Mn and Be, has a significant impact on the performance of Cu-Al alloys.

In this work, selective laser melting (SLM) technology was applied to directly realize the synthesis of medium manganese Mn-Cu ( = 30-40 wt.%) alloys based on the blended elemental powders. The effects of heat treatment on the microstructural evolution and damping properties of the SLMed Mn-Cu alloys were investigated.
