Aluminiumeair cells are high-energy density (<400 W h kg 1) primary batteries developed in the 1960s. This review shows the influence of the materials, including: aluminium alloy, oxygen reduction catalyst and electrolyte type, in the battery performance. Two issues are considered: (a) the parasitic corrosion of aluminium at open-circuit potential and under discharge, due to the reduction of wa...

This research paper focuses on the laminate composites of carbon steel and aluminium alloy using epoxy resin. For making composite metal laminates, compression molding method is used. Press used for sandwiched plates at 90°C 155 seconds. Izod Charpy Impact test were performed laminated its parent material i.e., Carbon Steel (SAE1042) Aluminium Alloy (6061-T6) to made a comparison with investiga...

Precipitation hardening, because it involves the hardening of the material over a prolonged time, is also called age hardening, or ageing. By the appropriate heat treatment of precipitation hardening, the strength or hardness of some heat-treatable aluminium alloys can be enhanced by the formation of nano-meter sized second-phase precipitated particles within the original phase matrix. The fine...

L The cellular automata (CA) methodology is applied to the case of intergranular corrosion. Appropriate CA rules are generated which can reproduce and predict the advance of a corrosion front. The proposed model shows qualitative and quantitati...
