one of the most important parts of power transmission in automotives is c.v. joint, which consists of four components where exterior bowl is one of them. due to its complexity, and importance in automobile and existence of high stresses, forging process is the only cost effective method of production. hence, the best method of production of this part is forging process. the exterior part of c.v...

Introduction Bar extrusion is a process in which a block of metal (billet) is forced to flow by compression through a tool (die) opening of a smaller crosssectional area than that of the original billet. There are two basic types of bar extrusion: direct and indirect. The most important and common method used is the direct extrusion (Lange 1988). Figure 1 shows the principle of direct bar extru...

A severe plastic deformation process, termed accumulative extrusion bonding (AEB), is conceived to steady-state bond metals in the form of multilayered tubes. It shown that AEB can facilitate their solid-state, like process roll (ARB). The steps involve iterative extrusion, cutting, expanding, restacking, and annealing. As iterated, laminated structure layer thicknesses decrease within tube wal...

In this study, five microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) grades were physically characterized and their extrusion-spheronization behaviours were characterized in terms of water requirements and pellet shape profiles. It was found that the MCC grades differed significantly in the physical properties investigated. Physical properties of MCC were found to influence the water requirement for extrusion-...

The ZK61 alloy rods with different grain sizes and crystallographic texture were successfully fabricated by cyclic extrusion and compression (CEC). Their room-temperature tension & compression yield strength displayed a significant dependence on grain size and texture, essentially attributed to {10-12} twinning. The texture variations were characterized by the angle θ between the c-axis of ...

To preserve epithelial barrier function, dying cells are squeezed out of an epithelium by "apoptotic cell extrusion." Specifically, a cell destined for apoptosis signals its live neighboring epithelial cells to form and contract a ring of actin and myosin II that squeezes the dying cell out of the epithelial sheet. Although most apoptotic cells extrude apically, we find that some exit basally. ...

This paper reports on an experimental and finite element analysis (FEA) of the cold extrusion of high-grade (AA1100) aluminium. The influence of die angle, reduction ratio and die land on the extrusion force during the extrusion process was investigated. A forward extrusion die was designed and manufactured for the purpose of the experimental research. Interchangeable elements of the extrusion ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro action of ProTaper retreatment files and ProTaper Universal in the retreatment of mandibular premolars. MATERIAL AND METHODS The amount of debris extruded apically was measured and the time to reach the working length and to complete the removal of gutta-percha was observed. Thirty teeth had their canals prepared using ProTaper Univ...

AIMS The aim of this study was to quantify the debris extruded apically from teeth using rotary and reciprocation instrumentation systems. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Eighty extracted human mandibular premolars with single canals and similar lengths were instrumented using ProTaper Universal (40, 06; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), ProTaper Next (40, 06; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues,...
