One of the principal problems with nano-crystalline materials is producing them in quantities and sizes large enough for valid mechanical property evaluation. The purpose of this study was to explore an innovative method for producing nano-crystalline γ-TiAl bulk materials using high energy ball milling and brief secondary processes. Nano-crystalline powder feedstock was produced using a Fritsc...

Micro end-milling method is a universal micro manufacturing method, which can be used to fabricating complex 3D structures and parts with many materials. But compared with their micrometer order size, their surface roughness quality is not satisfied. In this paper, the different metal phase grains influences are researched, and the micro end-milling process is described while the material is an...

Laser milling is a relatively new micromanufacturing technique in the production of copper and other metallic components. This study presents multidisciplinary research, which is based on unsupervised connectionist architectures in conjunction with modelling systems, on the determination of the optimal operating conditions in this industrial process. Sensors on a laser milling centre relay the ...

in this study, we describe the growth of carbon nanotubes on commercial iron nanoparticles without carbon shell (fe (nm), size 2o3 and fe* (nm)/mgo) was carried out by mixing commercial fe* nanoparticles (as catalyst) with al2o3 and mgo powders (as supports)by using ball-milling method. the results show in spite of the fact that ball-milling process can have negative effects on diameter and mor...

As variations in kernel uniformity can affect rice milling performance, limited thickness-grading to remove thin kernels was evaluated for effects on milling yields. Along with unfractioned (UNF) rice of four long-grain cultivars, rough rice was mechanically sieved, resulting in two thickness fractions, Thick (>0.079 inch) and Thin (<0.079 inch). Milled rice yield (MRY) and head rice yield (HRY...

Field flow fractionation is a family of separation techniques applicable to characterize various particulate materials of different nature. In this paper, formation of porous graphite during milling has been investigated by gravitational field flow fractionation. The results from gravitational field flow fractionation were compared to those from Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. The both techniques have ...
