In the current study, the sources of variation in the mean hardness value of heat treated aluminum 2024 samples were identified by using metallurgical study and design of experiment methodology (full factorial method). Hardness measurements and microstructural investigations of the samples were carried out using Brinell hardness test and optical microscopy, respectively. The effects of several ...

pulse-width modulated (pwm) adjustable frequency drives (afds) are extensively used in industries for control of induction motors. it has led to significant advantages in terms of the performance, size, and efficiency but the output voltage waveform no longer remains sinusoidal. hence, overshoots, high rate of rise, harmonics and transients are observed in the voltage wave. they increase voltag...

fourier transform infrared (ftir) and gel permeation chromatography (gpc) wre respectively utilized in determining the changes in isocyanate (nco) concentration and molecular weight (mw) and its distribution (mwd) in polyurethanes during their cure and postcure stages. samples, originally cured at 45°c, were taken through accelerate aging tests at various temperatures. the ftir and gpc analytic...
