hydroxyapatite is a biocompatible ceramic and reinforcement for bone implantations. seva/hap composite content hap filler with difference particle sizes were designed. mechanical tests like tensile modulus, uts, strain at break and biodegradation were investigated. results illustrated much increase tensile modulus of composites content hap nano powders ratio to micro powders. also uts analysis ...

A Pseudomonas aeruginosa mutant derived by random mutagenesis with N-methyl-N¢-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, producing high levels of the rhamnolipid biosurfactants was selected on Siegmund-Wagner (SW) plates. The mutant designated P. aeruginosa PTCC1637 produces rhamnolipids at concentrations 10 time more than parent strain. NMR analysis and surface tension measurement showed that the biosurfactan...

Austenite is a semi-stable phase in most stainless steels that deforms to martensite under Md30 and forms martensitetype ά and ε due to the deformation in the steels. Since the distribution of strain induced martensite plays animportant role in achieving desired properties, the main objective of the present work is to model martensitedistribution of ά during cold rolling using...

among the 30 strains of moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from the salty effluents of textile industries around qom city in central iran, a gram-negative rod shape bacterium designated as strain ip8 showed a remarkable ability in decolorizing of azo dyes over wide ranges of ph (7-11) and temperature (25-45 ºc), in presence of nacl and na2so4 (0.5-1.5 m) under anaerobic and aerobic conditi...

background heat is a harmful factor in workplaces that causes physiologic and cognitive changes in workers. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooling vest on heat strain and reaction time while wearing chemical-biological-nuclear protective clothes. methods twelve male students with mean age of 25 ± 2 and body mass index (bmi) of 23 ± 1.5 were recruited in th...

determination of critical points on hot stress-strain curve of metals is crucial in thermo-mechanical processes design. in this investigation a mathematical modeling is given to illustrate the behavior of metal during hot deformation processes such as hot rolling. the critical strain for the onset of dynamic recrystallization has been obtained as a function of strain at the maximum stress. in a...

advanced high strength steels (ahss) have recently attracted great attention because of their superior mechanical properties. a modern group of these steels, known as twinning induced plasticity (twip) steels, shows a unique combination of strength and ductility even at high rates of strain. in order to examine the functionality of such steels in dynamic loading conditions, their mechanical beh...
