CROSSHEAD SPEED EFFECTS ON FERRO CASTING DUCTILE (FCD) TENSILE STRENGTH AND FAULT MORPHOLOGY

Surfactant effects on soil aggregate tensile strength

Effects of Casting Speed and Runner Angle on Macrosegregation of Aluminium-Copper Alloy.

Abstract During the solidification of binary metal alloys, chemical heterogeneities at product scale over a long distance range (1cm-1m) develop and this has detrimental effect on the resulting mechanical properties of cast products. Macrosegregation is of great concern to alloy manufacturers and end users as this problem persist. In this study, the use of process parameters namely casting spee...

Effects of Hair Follicle Stem Cells on Partial-Thickness Burn Wound Healing and Tensile Strength

Background: The recent improvements in wound healing have led to new strategies in regenerative medicine. Burn wound healing is an important issue in skin regeneration and has multiple indications for stem cell therapy. Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) are a highly promising source of stem cells for healing use, as these cells are accessible, active and pluripotent adult stem cells. Methods: HF...

EFFECTS OF TENSILE STRENGTH ON FATIGUE BEHAVIOR AND NOTCH SENSITIVITY OF TI-6AL-4V

In this research, rotating bending fatigue test at minimum to maximum stress ratio of R=-1 was used for investigating the fatigue behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Both smooth and notched specimens, with elastic concentration factor, kt, of approximately 3.6 and 4.1 were used for this purpose.In addition, the effect of variation in ultimate tensile strength, UTS, on the fatigue behavior of this allo...

Influence of phyllosilicates on fault strength in the brittle–ductile transition: insights from rock analogue experiments

Despite the fact that phyllosilicates are ubiquitous in mature fault and shear zones, little is known about the strength of phyllosilicate-bearing fault rocks under brittle–ductile transitional conditions where cataclasis and solution-transfer processes are active. In this study we explored steady-state strength behaviour of a simulated fault rock, consisting of muscovite and halite, using brin...
