Optimization of Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Al-A360 Produced by Semi-Solid Casting

Semi-Solid Casting (SSM) is a new process that could produce globular structures with mechanical properties. The cooling slope method (CLM) is a one of this process that was employed to produce the A360 feedstock. In this method, The dendritic primary phase in the conventionally cast A356 alloy has transformed into a non-dendritic one. In this paper, The molten alloy with the temperature (PT) o...

Influence of post-processing on Ti6Al4V lattice structures produced by Selective Laser Melting

Selective laser melting (SLM) is a novel technique being increasingly used for the production of porous structures with a high degree of precision and near net shape. These porous materials are finding their use in the biomedical industry for implants. In this thesis, the effect of post-processing using hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and surface modification techniques, such as chemical etching a...

Studies on Polyethers Produced by Red Algae

Two novel squalene-derived triterpenes, spirodehydrovenustatriol (3) and 14-keto-dehydrothyrsiferol (4) were isolated from the red alga Laurencia viridis, together with two new and unusual C(17) terpenoids, adejen A (5) and B (6). These truncated structures possess structural similarities with other known squalene metabolites and their biogenetic origin has been proposed on the basis of an oxid...

A Study on the Forming of Sheet Metal Parts Using Multi-Point Forming Technology

In recent years, in order to reducing die design and manufacturing costs, Multi point forming technique has gained an increasing interest because of its high flexibility. In this process, the conventional fixed shape solid die sets are replaced with a pair of opposite matrices of controllable elements. In this paper, the fundamental principles of multi-point forming was described and the possib...
