The paper attempts to study the machinability issues of aluminium-silicon carbide (Al-SiC) metal matrix composites (MMC) in turning using HSS cutting tool. SiCp-reinforced metal matrix composites (MMCs) containing SiC particles (5wt%-20wt %) of 400mesh size were prepared by powder metallurgy (P/M) route and used as work material for turning. Experiments were conducted at various cutting speeds ...

The investigation was conducted on wet and dry seasons of Ethiopia during the year 2012/2013 at Wondo Genet Agricultural Research Center Nursery site. Four levels of cutting size and three levels of cutting positions were arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. Data on seedling height, branch number/seedling, root number/seedling, root weigh/seedling, root length/s...

We study the monotonicity properties of solutions in the classic problem of fair cake-cutting — dividing a heterogeneous resource among agents with different preferences. Resourceand population-monotonicity relate to scenarios where the cake, or the number of participants who divide the cake, changes. It is required that the utility of all participants change in the same direction: either all o...

Cutting operations is one point in the process route from steel plate to finished product that may introduce stress can be detrimental at later stages of product’s life. With realization high energy X-ray sources, with deep penetration and a small probe, there possibility resolution mapping introduced stresses metal cutting. In this work, article number 2001168, Fredrik Lindberg co-worker have ...

Demand for lead-free, free-cutting brass is increasing in response to lead regulations Europe. The authors of this paper have attempted develop a lead-free with an α + β two-phase microstructure, which different from existing C6932 alloy. As result basic investigations, it was found that the addition Si β-brass dramatically reduces cutting resistance due effect appears be reduction stacking def...

Loosening is recognized as one of the primary sources of total hip replacement (THR) failure. In this study the influence of the bone surface texture on loosening of the cement/bone interface was studied. Model cemented hip replacements were prepared and subjected to cyclic loads that induced pure shear fatigue of the cement/bone interface. The femoral canals were textured with the use of speci...

in this experimental work, by using the method of plasma-chemical etching, we have dealtwith the causes of the creation of a distorted layer on the surface of silicon wafers during mechanicalmachining processes, in addition, the elucidation of connections between the structure of this layer andcharacteristic parameters of the mechanical strength of these wafers have been studied. experimentalre...

In this study, turning operation of Monel K500 copper-nickel super-alloy was evaluated. Ceramic cutting tools with two different cutting noses (conventional and wiper) were utilized. At first, the experimental tests were designed by using central composite design method. After implementation of the tests, the statistical models for output data (surface roughness, cutting force, and flank wear) ...
