In the present work, the isothermal compression tests of Al–0.62Mg–0.73Si aluminum alloy were carried out by using the Gleeble-1500D thermo-simulation machine. The samples were tested in the temperature range of 410–510°C and strain rate range of 0.001–1 s−1. Based on the obtained stress–strain curves, the hot deformation behavior was presented. The constitutive relationship of Al–0.62Mg–0.73Si...

In the Lost Foam Casting process, melting point temperature of metal, as well as volume and rate of the foam degradation have significant effect on the mold filling pattern. Therefore, gas generation capacity and gas gap length are two important parameters for modeling of mold filling time of the lost foam casting processes. In this paper, the gas gap length at the liquidfoam interface for a lo...

OBJECTIVE To test the homemade ring fixator as a tool for correction of bony deformity. MATERIAL AND METHOD The authors developed an aluminum alloy ring fixator and tested it to find out the accuracy of manufacturing and strength of the ring systems under axial load with the Roundness Testing Machine and Lloyd Universal Testing Machine. RESULTS The mean diameter of the twenty five-drill hol...

The debate over the pros and cons of aluminum vs. copper conductors has been discussed for many years. Many of the concerns are based on old information and also misinformation. These concerns center on the very different properties of the two materials and their suitability for application within the Electrical Equipment Industry. Reliable performance from the conductors, the joints and termin...

for the first time, this research reports the formation of nanoporous layers of metals on the surface of metal substrates by raney method and their conversion to corresponding porous perovskite layers. the noble metals doped perovskites are used as catalytic converter for reducing automotive pollutants. the use of perovskite as a substrate for the noble metals can reduce the need for such metal...

Loading conditions and complex geometry have led the cylinder heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. The aim of this study is to compare the distribution of temperature and stress in the aluminum and magnesium cylinder heads under thermo-mechanical loads. The three-dimensional model of the cylinder heads was simulated in abaqus software and a two-layer viscoplasticity mod...

Nowadays due to water shortage, the use of air humidity as the sustainable solution has been considered by cities located in coastal zones; especially in warm and humid climate. However, the use of air humidity also has its own problems such as corrosion of metal parts in photovoltaic cells that used for energy supplying and they are often made of Aluminum alloy. Therefore different methods suc...

Single crystalline cobalt nickel (Co-Ni) alloy nanowires are successfully fabricated using direct current (DC) electrodeposition with in the nanopore of highly ordered anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) template. SEM studies show that the average diameter of the alloy nanowires is approximately equal to 50 nm which corresponds to the pore size of the AAO template. Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analy...
