Deep drawing of two-layer sheet is a suitable way to achieve product with a desired shape and desired properties in sheet metal forming technology. Control of deep drawing parameter such as thinning is the most important challenge in this process. The most difficult part of this challenge is differences in material properties and geometry of each layer. In this paper, numerical approach has bee...

Besides experimental methods, numerical simulations bring benefits and great opportunities to characterize and predict mechanical behaviors of materials especially at nanoscale. In this study, a nano-single crystal aluminum (Al) as a typical face centered cubic (FCC) metal was modeled based on molecular dynamics (MD) method and by applying tensile and compressive strain loadings its mechanical ...

the full annealing aa6061 aluminum alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformationvia the combination of equal channel angular pressing (ecap) and cold rolling (cr) in order torefine its microstructure and to improve its mechanical properties. according to the results of hotand cold tensile tests, the combination of ecap and cr significantly affected the final strengthand ductility of studied...

A methodology is introduced to test carbon-fiber-reinforced, hoop-wound composite cylinders for their biaxial mechanical properties under axial compression and hoop tension. The understanding of the behavior of these composites under biaxial loads is extremely important in the design of pulsed magnets. These composites are used as reinforcements for both the inner conducting layers and as an ov...

AlSi11 matrix composites reinforced with SiC particles have been fabricated by high pressure die casting assisted ultrasonic mixing. Severe plastic deformation process was performed on the as cast AlSi/2wt.%SiC composite using modified channel twisted output (TCAP) at three temperatures of 350, 400 and 450 °C. The TCAP tool consists helical part in horizontal area allowing for simulation back t...

objectives: dental composite wear in posterior restorations is a concern and is affected by different factors. this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of polishing and mechanical loads on wear of silorane-based and methyl methacrylate-based composites resins. materials and methods: of each dental composite (filtek p90 and filtek p60), 40 samples were fabricated in a polyethylene mold (4...

Metallic composite coatings with ceramic particles can be used to improve the mechanical and corrosion properties of steel. In the present research, Ni-ZrO2-TiO2 composite coating was fabricated on AISI 430 stainless steel through the electrodeposition method. The effect of the current density of electroplating (15, 17, 20, and 23 mA.cm-2)was investigated on the...
