effect of temperature on hydrodynamics of bubbling gas-solid fluidized beds was investigated.  experiments were carried out in the range of 25-600 ºc and different superficial gas velocities in the range of 0.17-0.78 m/s with sand particles. time-position trajectory of particles was obtained by radioactive particle tracking technique. these data were used for determination of mean velocities of...

in the present work, high temperature tensile properties of medium density polyethylene (mdpe) and its nanocomposites are investigated. for this purpose mdpe reinforced with different weight percentages of nano-sized calcium (2, 5, 10) are produced by compression moulding method. tensile tests have been carried out at different temperatures, i.e. 30, 60, 90c using thermomechanical analysis (tm...

dual phase steels with different martensite volume fraction and morphology were tensile tested at a temperature range of 25 to 5500c. stress-strain curves of all steels showed serration flow at temperatures of 250 and 3500c, and smooth flow at the other temperatures. both yield and ultimate tensile strengths increased with increasing testing temperature up to about 4500c and then decreased at h...

superconducting materials are capable of trapping extremely high magnetic fields. this property and meissner effect of superconductors causes a levitation force between bulk superconductors and a permanent magnet (pm). this levitation force has possible industrial applications such as permanent magnet guideways (pmg). because of the high price of permanent magnets, the optimization of pmg desig...

in this work, dynamic mechanical properties of three high-manganese steels with trip/twip or fully twip characteristics are studied. high strain rate experiments in the range of true strain rates between ~500 and 1800 /s are conducted using a dynamic torsional testing setup. all the three steels show a positive strain rate sensitivity in the intermediate range of strain rates (up to 500 /s). bu...
