Study on Cold Work Tool Steel Using Thermal Shock Equipment

Thermal shock and thermal fatigue study of ceramic materials on a newly developed ascending thermal shock test equipment

A test equipment was designed to study thermal shock and thermal fatigue of ceramic materials subjected to fast heating (ascending). The equipment was designed to generate thermal stress in a test specimen by heating one surface of it by an oxy-hydrogen flame while cooling the opposite surface. The sample cracked when thermal stress exceeded its mechanical strength. The in situ crack formation ...

Laser Grooving of Surface Cracks on Hot Work Tool Steel

Repair welding (RW) with wire cladding is a common procedure to extend the in-service life of heavily loaded tool parts for die and mould industries 1-5 . The main advantages of repair welding are short downtime and cost efficiency compared to production of new tool part. Repair welding in general lowers the tool cost in the final part and enables higher added value to the die casting and injec...

On Cold-Formed Steel Construction

Powder-actuated (also referred to as low velocity or powder-driven) fasteners are commonly used to attach cold-formed steel framing members, usually a track, to a concrete or structural steel support. Although commonly used, their behavior is less well understood than other fasteners such as screws, bolts and welds. The AISI Cold-Formed Steel Design Manual does not explicitly address powder act...
