The late prehistoric copper production site of the Vilabouly Complex in central Laos delivered different types materials that seem to be related chaine oppératoire for two main sites, Puen Baolo and Thong Na Nguak: minerals, slags crucible fragments. A selection these artefacts were analyzed (OM, SEM–EDS, XRD, bulk analyses) study extraction techniques, raw used steps at Vilabouly. various anal...

it to 680•Ž in flowing nitrogen (PV-7). Four samples having different pre-heat-treatment conditions were selected; the original coke PV-7 , the second one prepared from PV-7 by the heat treatment at 1500•Ž for 60 min (PV-15) , the third also from PV-7 by the treatment at 2060•Ž for 60 min (PV-7-20) , and the fourth by the heat treatment of PV-15 at 2060•Ž for 60 min (PV-15-20). Each sample was ...

125301-7474 IJET-IJENS @ February 2012 IJENS I J E N S Abstract—To better understand the vacuum arc remelting (VAR) process, a 3D finite element model is established to analyzing the electromagnetic, temperature and flow fields of titanium alloy ingot during steady state melting process using ANSYS software. The research results show that the current flows from the crucible to consumable electr...

This paper investigate the thermophysical properties of liquid as well rapid solidification Al5.0Mg0.2Sc alloys with 3.0 and 6.0 Li wt% by discharge crucible, Impulse Atomization techniques respectively. The crucible method, allowed a simultaneous determination density, surface tension viscosity function temperature. While density are found to decrease content, increases due short-range orderin...

The effects of accelerated crucible rotation technique (ACRT) and dynamic translation on liquid phase diffusion (LPD) growth of SixGe1−x single crystals have been separately investigated numerically in earlier works and were found to have a very positive impact on the LPD growth process. Building upon these findings, in this paper, we study the consequences of imposing both ACRT and dynamic tra...

Viscosity has been determined during isothermal crystallization of an andesite from Tungurahua volcano (Ecuador). Viscosity was continuously recorded using the concentric cylinder method and employing a Pt-sheathed alumina spindle at 1 bar and from 1400°C to subliquidus temperatures to track rheological changes during crystallization. The disposable spindle was not extracted from the sample but...
