Shear-flow-induced structure formation in surfactant-water mixtures is investigated numerically using a meshless-membrane model in combination with a particle-based hydrodynamics simulation approach for the solvent. At low shear rates, uni-lamellar vesicles and planar lamellae structures are formed at small and large membrane volume fractions, respectively. At high shear rates, lamellar states ...

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations for recrystallization were performed using OIM (Orientation Image Microscopy) data sets to define the initial microstructures. Two types of OIM data sets were used as input to the simulations. One type was measured on a warm-rolled interstitial-free (IF) steel sheet. The results were strongly affected by the assumptions used to estimate the stored energy, which is t...

The structure and magnetic properties of an InGaAs/Fe(3)Si superlattice in a cylindrical geometry are investigated by electron microscopy techniques, x-ray diffraction and magnetometry. To form a radial superlattice, a pseudomorphic InGaAs/Fe(3)Si bilayer has been released from its substrate self-forming into rolled-up microtubes. Oxide-free interfaces as well as areas of crystalline bonding ar...

The effect of the initial microstructure (recrystallized or cold-rolled) on the nitride-precipitation process upon gaseous nitriding of ternary, ferritic, Fe-Cr-Al alloy was investigated at 450°C. In the recrystallized specimens, precipitation of metastable ternary, cubic, NaCl-type mixed Cr1xAlxN took place, whereas in the cold-rolled specimens precipitation of firstly binary cubic NaCltype Cr...

cold rolling process of a major transformation in the form of sheet metal and a wide range of steel products are produced in this way. elastic deformation during cold rolling working rollers and the inevitable increase in the rolling force. in this study, the effect of elastic deformation during cold rolling mill rollers working on the reciprocating back and forth in tandem with the presence of...

Non-stationary stochastic lot sizing problem appears in many industrial environments where demand is nonstationary and stochastic, and replenishments require fixed freight fees. This paper presents the cost performance assessment of three inventory control strategies proposed for the stochastic lot sizing problem, namely Hua et al. (2008)’s strategy (HYHX), Tarim and Kingsman (2006)’s model (TK...

S. H. Chang, S. H. Hsiao, National I-Lan University, Taiwan Cold-rolled and annealed Ti50Ni40Cu10 shape memory alloy possesses a major (110)[001] texture along the rolling direction and a minor {111} γ-fiber texture along the normal direction. The damping capacity of the B2→B19 and B19→B2 martensitic transformation internal friction peaks for the Ti50Ni40Cu10 shape memory alloy was more pr...

Having in view the statistical data calculated for 10 years, the total consumption of rolling mill rolls represents 0 785...0 8 kg/tone of rolled steel. Nationwide, the 5 million tones steel being rolled every year represents a consumption of 4000 tones rolls, worth 6 million euro/year, which imposes large research with an important economic and scientific impact [1-6] It is noticeable that app...

Fingerprint based identification is one of the most mature and proven technique compare to the all biometric technique. In crime sense fingerprints have been extensively used for identification of criminals. Fingerprints are classified as rolled, plain and latent fingerprints. Latent fingerprints are lifted from surface of objects that are unintentionally touched by person. Latent means poor qu...

Skin-rolling is the final operation of technological process for production auto sheet steel. Tempering affects quality metal surface, properties and stamping ability. Treading allows you to harden surface rolled products keep inner layers undeformed. As a result, it possible prevent formation shear lines during provide an optimal combination mechanical characteristics products. On skin-rolling...
