Y. J. Zhang, L. B. Wu, H. Y. Zhao, X. D. Hu, W. Y. Zhang, D. Y. Ju, School of Materials and Metallurgy, University of Science and Technology Liaoning, China This paper studies the adaptive fuzzy control problem of the molten steel level for a class of twin roll strip casting systems. Based on fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) and the mean value theorem, a novel adaptive tracking controller with parame...

1.1 Manufacturing processes Major industries with exposure to strong inorganic acid mists include those that manufacture phosphate fertilizer, isopropanol (isopropyl alcohol), synthetic ethanol (ethyl alcohol), sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and lead batteries. Exposure also occurs during copper smelting, and pickling and other acid treatment of metals (Suresh, 2009). Minor uses of sulfuric acid i...

In recent years, the study of partial differential equations on self-similar fractals has attracted increasing interest (see, for example, [7–9, 13, 14]). We investigate a class of nonlinear diffusions with source terms on general metric measure spaces. Diffusion is of fundamental importance in many areas of physics, chemistry and biology. Applications of diffusion include sintering, i.e. makin...

In this study, the efficacy of an innovative ultra-fast sintering technique called electro-sinter-forging (ESF) was evaluated in densification Fe-Cr-C steel. Although ESF proved to be effective densifying several different metallic materials and composites, it has not yet been applied powder metallurgy steels. Pre-alloyed Astaloy CrM powders have ad-mixed with either graphite or graphene then p...

|III Abstract Powder metallurgy (PM) is usually used in manufacturing parts with complex geometries, such as gears and structural parts. The main attractions of PM are the high rate of material utilization, environmental friendliness of production, economic advantages (especially for complex geometries), and possibility of obtaining lighter components. To find a wide range of applications and c...

Abstrac t The most commonly used thermometer to measure high temperatures in metallurgy is the thermocouple, but because of its long response time it can be used mainly for measuring time-averaged temperatures. Research on steel wire patenting using inductive heating required instantaneous temperature values. Pyrometers or thermographic cameras could be used, however they are generally expensiv...
