[en] A report is presented on the metallurgical contract research facilities and services on offer from AERE Harwell against the background of the pioneering work in the nuclear field. The areas of technical expertise are reviewed and the overall capability available to boost industrial performance is illustrated by reference to a range of case studies. (author)

[en] Information is presented on the deployment of Harwell professional scientific and engineering staff between work on and basic to the national nuclear programme, and work directed to other market areas, funded on a customer-contractor basis. Figures also show how the commercial revenue is distributed among different groups of customers. Examples of the commercial programme are given under the headings: biotechnology; computer technology; environmental sciences; materials science; offshore technology; specialised instrumentation. (U.K.)

[en] The report is in sections: nuclear data and technology for nuclear power; nuclear studies; other studies and applications (including sections dealing with the work of the following Groups: Synchrocyclotron, Moessbauer Effect, Ion-Crystal Interaction, High Voltages, Industrial Physics (nuclear techniques, radiation instruments, tracer techniques), Accelerator Operation Maintenance and Development). (U.K.)

[en] The report falls under the headings: nuclear, atomic and molecular physics (atomic and molecular theory; nuclear theory; centrifugal flow); theory of fluids (statistical mechanics; general fluid mechanics; flow in porous media; energy modelling); radiation damage and theoretical metallurgy (radiation damage; safety studies; mechanical and defect studies); theory of solid state materials (non-destructive testing; atomistic studies of defects in solids; atomistic studies of surfaces and planar defects; electronic structure of solids; studies of minerals and of vitrified waste). (U.K.)

[en] This list constitutes unclassified material published or presented between January 1972 and July 1977 by the staff of Metallurgy Division. It covers reports, memoranda, bibliographies, articles in periodicals, conference papers, books, theses and patent specifications. It is planned to issue a list annually. The publications are listed under the following titles of the research teams concerned: fast reactor fuels, advanced reactor systems, fracture studies, structural materials, radiation effects, composite materials, high voltage microscope and metals fabrication, management and administration. (U.K.)

[en] The review falls under the following headings; Harwell today (including a table giving some examples to illustrate the technical breadth of Harwell's commercial activities, and listing some of the clients); the customer programme (categories of the laboratory's work, with special emphasis on the commercial activities); commercial performance (including a figure showing how the laboratory's income was distributed among different groups of customers); recent trends in customer demand; highlights of programmes of 1977-78. (U.K.)
