abstract in this research, a radial basis function artificial neural network (rbf-ann) model was developed to predict the hot deformation flow curves of api x65 pipeline steel. the results of the developed model was compared with the results of a new phenomenological model that has recently been developed based on a power function of zener-hollomon parameter and a third order polynomial functio...

A widely used method for hot forming steels and alloys, especially heavy forging, is the process of multistage forging with pauses between stages. The well-known effect which accompanies multistage hot forging is metal plasticity recovery in comparison with monotonic deformation. A method which takes into consideration the recovery of plasticity in pauses between hot deformations of a billet un...

This paper discusses the use of laboratory drag measurements and filter operating data to analyze factors affecting dustcake flow resistance in a hot-gas filter at the Power Systems Development Facility (PSDF). The hot-gas filter is a Siemens-Westinghouse two-tier candle filter system that is collecting coal gasification ash from a KBR Transport Gasifier. Operating experience with this system h...

Porous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a new type of functional materials and have recently become a hot research field due to their great potential in various applications. In this review, recent progress of gas adsorption applications of porous MOFs, mainly including hydrogen storage, methane storage, and selective gas adsorption will be briefly summarized.

The inflow of cosmological gas onto haloes, while challenging to directly observe and quantify, plays a fundamental role in the baryon cycle galaxies. Using EAGLE suite hydrodynamical simulations, we present thorough exploration physical properties accreting haloes -- namely, its spatial characteristics, density, temperature, metallicity. Classifying accretion as ``hot'' or `` cold'' based on t...

I review recent results from our deep ROSAT and Chandra observations of two galaxies, M101 and NGC 4631, in fields of exceptionally low Galactic extinction. Large amounts of X-ray-emitting gas are detected in these galaxies. Such gas is produced primarily in massive star forming regions and have an average characteristic temperature of a few times 10 6 K. Cooler gas (∼ 10 6 K) is found typicall...

recently, incremental sheet metal forming (ismf) process as one of the new methods in rapid prototyping collection has been considered by researchers. this process is based on a defined path in cnc controller and applies a spherical-head tool that supplies the required pressure for sheet metal forming. despite affirmation of process ability in forming symmetric geometries, some of its aspects s...

This review article surveys recent experimental and theoretical advances in the gas-phase ion chemistry of the noble gases. Covered issues include the interaction of the noble gases with metal and non-metal cations, the conceivable existence of covalent noble-gas anions, the occurrence of ion-molecule reactions involving singly-charged xenon cations, and the occurrence of bond-forming reactions...
