abstract: friction stir welding, a solid state innovative joining technique, is widely being used for joining aluminium alloys for aerospace, marine automotive and many other applications of commercial importance. fsw trials were carried out using a vertical machining centre (vmc) on aa6061 alloy. the main objective of the present work was to evaluate the weld processing parameter of friction s...

this study focuses on achieving high stiffness/strength and good fr characteristic of nylon 66/mca/nc nanocomposites, prepared via melt compounding by twin screw extruder. a synergistic effect of flame retardant systems based on melamine cyanurate and zinc borate on the flammability and mechanical behaviours of crysnanoclay reinforced nylon 66 nanocomposites have been reported. mechanical test ...

in this study, the elemental powders of aluminum and copper were initially subjected to mechanical alloying using an attrition ball mill under argon atmosphere to produce an al-4.5 wt% cu powder alloy. the wc nanoparticles were then added to the powder alloy and milled in a planetary ball mill to explore the role of the wc nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of the fabricated composite p...

In current study, the synthesis and characterization of novel thermally stable polyimides (PIs) containing an 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety based on a diamine, i.e. 2,5-bis(3-amino-4-methyl benzene)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (BAMO), have been reported. The polymers were characterized using FT-IR and elemental analysis (CHN). Thermal and mechanical behaviours of the prepared PIs were studied by thermo-gravimet...

The main goal of this research is to extract the full mechanical properties of stitch biax and triax composite materials which are necessary for finite element analysis, based on limited available experimental data and without performing full static characterization tests. Utilized experimental data are limited to elastic modulus of two 0o and 45o directions. Using presented technique and afore...

an ultrafine grained dual phase (ufg dp) steel containing niobium was produced by a new routeutilizing simple cold-rolling and subsequent intercritical annealing of ferrite/martensite duplex startingstructures. the effects of intercritical holding time on the microstructural evolutions and mechanicalproperties were studied. the results showed that increasing intercritical holding time enhnaced ...

in this study, physical vapor deposition (pvd) ti-cr-n coatings were deposited at two different temperatures100 and 400ºc on hardened and tempered tool steel substrates. the influence of the applied deposition temperature on the physical and mechanical properties of coatings such as roughness, thickness, phase composition, hardness and young’s modulus were evaluated. phase compositions were stu...

The mechanical characterization of short E- glass fiber reinforced, graphite and sintered bronze filled epoxy composite was carried out in this study. The aim of the present study was to develop tribological engineering material. In this study the flexural strength, theoretical and experimental density, Hardness and Impact strength of composites was investigated experimentally. The results show...
