A repertory of Roman military bronze equipment (1st- 3rd century AD) found at the archaeological site of Thamusida (Rabat, Morocco) was analysed by non-destructive X-ray fluorescence and time of flight neutron diffraction (ToF-ND). Most objects are made of leaded alloys, where copper is combined with tin and/or zinc and, in six cases, to arsenic as well. A mixed technology was employed, making ...

This article reviews the nanomaterials that have been prepared to date by pulsed sonoelectrochemistry. The majority of nanomaterials produced by this method are pure metals such as silver, palladium, platinum, zinc, nickel and gold, but more recently the syntheses have been extended to include the preparation of nanosized metallic alloys and metal oxide semiconductors. A major advantage of this...

Zinc and its alloys seem to be promising candidates for biodegradable applications. Those materials are often modified by other elements or compounds in order enhance their properties. The combination of zinc apatites is challenging several reasons. However, the advantages connected with biological aspects suggest need further research into such materials. In this study, three zinc-based compos...

In present global scenario, aluminum alloys are coining the attention of many innovators as competing structural materials for automotive and space applications. Comparing to other challenging alloys, especially, 7xxx series aluminum alloys have been studied seriously because of benefits such as moderate strength; better deforming characteristics and affordable cost. It is expected that substit...

The processes of melt formation were studied by methods optical and electron scanning microscopy. These occur during induction brazing a hard alloy to steel holder contact interaction low-melting (copper-zinc system alloy) refractory (iron-nickel) components the solders. It is shown that effect thermal magnetic-dynamic high-frequency electromagnetic field on composite solder how high-strength j...

First-principles all electrons density-functional calculations for the band structure and magnetization of Zn1−xCoxO ternary magnetic alloys, in three phases namely zinc-blende, rocksalt wurtzite have been reported. The computations are spin-polarized. An inspection our electronic properties showed that alloy system interest exhibits a semiconducting character where nature gap depends on consid...

an artificial neural network (ann) model is developed for the analysis, simulation, and prediction of the austenite reversion in the thermo-mechanical treatment of 304l austenitic stainless steel. the results of the ann model are in good agreement with the experimental data. the model is used to predict an appropriate annealing condition for austenite reversion through the martensite to austeni...

This study presents an analytical investigation and electrochemical conservation treatment for a group of four copper alloy artifacts excavated from the archaeological cemetery that was located on site Queen Alia International Airport, Jordan. The chemical analyses internal alloys showed bracelet spatula were made quaternary copper–zinc–tin–lead alloy, copper–silver–zinc copper–tin, bronze allo...
