In this study, the incremental forming of explosively welded low carbon steel-commercially pure titanium bilayer sheet has been experimentally and numerically investigated. For this purpose, at first a finite element based analysis was proposed to predict forming force and thickness distribution to form this material by such process, that showed good agreements with the experimental results. Th...

The creep response in the air of commercially pure titanium was investigated at 550, 600, and 650 °C to assess effect oxidation on mechanical response. Experiments demonstrated that prolonged exposures high temperatures produced a marked reduction minimum rate under given applied stress. Microhardness measurements showed hardened zone formed proximity surface due oxygen penetration into metal. ...

Abstract The bonding mechanisms of a wide range metallic materials in cold spraying have been studied, mainly attributed to adiabatic shear instability (ASI) at high strain rates, whereas the impact and deformation behavior entropy alloys (HEAs) onto various substrates has not widely explored. HEAs characterized by excellent strain-hardening ability resistance localization, which can influence ...

4 (cp-Ti-4), subjected to disinfection with 0.2% and 2% peracetic acid during different immersion periods using anodic potentiodynamic polarization test in acid and neutral artificial saliva. Cylindrical samples of cp-Ti-4 (5 mm x 5 mm) were used to fabricate 24 working electrodes, which were mechanically polished and divided into eight groups (n=3) for disinfection in 2% and 0.2% peracetic aci...

This paper will report on long term behaviour of potential sensors used in cathodic protection steel reinforcement concrete. Cathodic (CP) systems, both impressed current CP (ICCP) and galvanic (GCP), need regular testing to establish the quality protection. In addition, ICCP may require adjustment output voltage or current. Various types have been relatively large numbers, comprised true refer...

low carbon steel samples were both shot into and inoculated with titanium in order to improve mechanical properties such as strength and toughness. sem observations and x-ray analyses revealed that titanium nitride and titanium carbonitride precipitates being scattered in the ferrite substrate reduce the grain size in all as-cast, heat-treated and as-rolled cases. the growth of the grains at hi...

CP Ti was mirror-polished and then abraded with waterproof SiC papers of two different grit sizes: 16 and 3 microm. As-polished and abraded surfaces were characterized by means of EPMA, XPS, XRD, and hardness test. Oxygen in the mirror-polished surface was uniformly distributed at the lowest level. Comparatively, abrading with SiC papers increased the surface oxygen amount and hardness. Owing t...
