the experiment was conducted to determine the effects of different photoperiods and darkness on the growth and survival of juvenile catla catla in the laboratory for 90 days. fishes were divided into four aquaria (10 fish per aquarium), and subjected to different photoperiod regimes of 8 hours light: 16 hours dark (8l:16d), 16 hours light: 8 hours dark (16l:8d), continuous light (24l:0d) and co...

The pearlite lamellar spacing (λpearlite) is one of the microstructure parameters that define strength graphite iron (LGI). transformation kinetics λpearlite has been subject several modeling studies for steels, which demonstrated can be calculated as a function undercooling. However, it hard to find in literature models prediction LGI. In present work, fully pearlitic LGI was investigated wi...

In this present work effect of temperature and graphite contents on the microstructural and mechanical properties of iron based powder metallurgy freeform was studied. The different graphite contents (0%, 2%, 5% and 10%) were mixed in iron powder and compact them in 100 KN. These specimens were sintered at 7000 C, 8500 C and 10000 C in muffle furnaces. Microstructural properties were evaluated ...

In Part II of this paper, a cutting force model for the micro-endmilling process is developed. This model incorporates the minimum chip thickness concept in order to predict the effects of the cutter edge radius on the cutting forces. A new chip thickness computation algorithm is developed to include the minimum chip thickness effect. A slip-line plasticity force model is used to predict the fo...

The experiences from orthogonal machining simulations show that the Johnson-Cook (JC) dynamic failure model exhibits significant element size dependence. Such mesh dependence is a direct consequence of the utilization of local damage models. The current contribution is an investigation of the extent of the possible pathological mesh dependence. A comparison of the resulting JC model behavior co...

The effect of different austenite grain size and different cooling rates on the austenite to ferrite transformation temperature and different ferrite morphologies in one Nb-microalloyed (HSLA) steel has been investigated. Three different austenite grain sizes were selected and cooled at two different cooling rates for obtaining austenite to ferrite transformation temperature. Moreover, samples ...

The study reports the mechanical property and microstructure of cold rolled low carbon steel and its work-hardening behavior in the deformation process. The tensile test in room temperature of low carbon steel was implemented for the different cold rolling deformation, the stress-strain curve was draught according to the relationship between strength and deformation and fitted for the polynomia...

Abstract In this study, the effect of cooling rate controlled by different castings thickness ranging from 3 to 25 mm on mechanical and corrosion behavior Si–Mo ductile iron (DI) was investigated. SEM-EBSD investigations demonstrated that nodule counts, nodularity, ferrite phase increased while ferritic grain size decreased with decreasing in casting wall thickness; turn led improvements tensil...
