with careful design, mixed microstructures consisting of fine plates of upper bainitic ferrite separated by thinfilms of stable retained austenite have exhibited impressive combinations of strength and toughness in highsiliconbainitic steels. the silicon suppresses the precipitation of brittle cementite leading to an improvement intoughness. the essential principles governing the optimisation o...

Parallel Tubular Channel Angular Pressing (PTCAP) process is a novel recently developed severe plastic deformation (SPD) method for producing ultrafine grained (UFG) and nanograined (NG) tubular specimens with excellent mechanical and physical properties. This process has several advantageous compared to its TCAP counterparts. In this paper, a fine grained AZ91 tube was fabricated via multi pas...

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE AR-SA The ratio of compression yield strength to the initial tensile yield strength is called Bauschinger effect factor, BEF. A nonlinear strain hardening mathematical model is proposed for 7075 aluminium alloy (A7075). Uniaxial tension-compression experimental data are used to figure out a suitable model to study the BEF. Hence, uniaxial tension-co...

The finite element method has been used to develop collapse mechanism maps for the shear response of sandwich panels with a stainless steel core comprising hollow struts. The core topology comprises either vertical tubes or inclined tubes in a pyramidal arrangement. The dependence of the elastic and plastic buckling modes upon core geometry is determined, and optimal geometric designs are obtai...

background: bonding of molar tubes is becoming more popular in orthodontics. occasionally, these bonding are done on posterior porcelain crowns or bridges. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of buccal tubes on feldspathic porcelain crowns with two different methods. materials and methods: forty porcelain right molar crowns were fabricated for this study. the crown...

in this paper, the effect on the strength properties of high strength concrete (hsc) manufactured with silica fume (sf) and ground pumice (gp) is investigated. portland cement was replaced with sf, gp and combination of sf and gp up to 25%. 22 different concrete mixtures with these replacement ratios were produced by using 0.25 water-binder ratio. the ultrasound pulse velocity, compressive, spl...

in this paper, the effect of polypropylene fibers added to concrete on strength and thermal resistance of high strength concrete has been investigated. therefore, five tests have been carried out to reach this goal which it includes; effect of weight percent of polypropylene fibers on mechanical properties of concrete, effect of fiber’s length on the strength of high strength concrete, effect o...

BACKGROUND AND METHODS Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a new treatment for bone defects, and the property of membrane is critical to the success of GBR. This study focuses on a novel membrane tube for GBR, which was prepared by a nanocalcium-deficient hydroxyapatite-multi(amino acid) copolymer (n-CDHA-MAC) composite. The biomechanical strength and degradability of this membrane tube under mec...

Hot-dip galvanizing is one of the most common corrosion protection techniques for steel. This widely available method increases lifetime steel structures by up to 50 years. Although there a well-established hot-dip structural mild-steel, effects this on mechanical properties high and ultra-high strength steels (HSS UHSS), with nominal yield greater than 700MPa, has not been thoroughly studied. ...
