nicu alloy nanowires arrays were embedded into the anodic aluminum oxide (aao) template by ac-pulse electrodeposition. different off-time were used in electrolyte with constant concentration of ni and cu and acidity of 3. the effect of deposition parameters on alloy contents was investigated by studying the microstructure and magnetic properties of as-deposited nicu alloy nanowires. atomic forc...

Several different joint assemblies were evaluated in support of a manufacturing technology for diffusion bonding a beryllium armor tile to a copper alloy heat sink for fusion reactor applications. Because beryllium reacts with all but a few elements to form intermetallic compounds, this study considered several different surface treatments as a means of both inhibiting these reactions and promo...

POWDER METALLURGY (P/M) technology provides a useful means of fabricating net-shape components that enables machining to be minimized, thereby reducing costs. Aluminum P/M alloys can therefore compete with conventional aluminum casting alloys, as well as with other materials, for costcritical applications. In addition, P/M technology can be used to refine microstructures compared with those mad...

in the present study, mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue behavior of a solid-solutionized aa6061 aluminum alloy produced by equal channel angular pressing (ecap) process were investigated. the grain refinement after two passes of ecap significantly increased the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress and decreased the ductility of the alloy. however, the improvement of low cycle fati...

In recent years, the use of aluminum alloy has tended to increase for building lightweight automobiles to reduce their automotive weight, which is helpful to save energy and protect the environment. In order to join aluminum alloy, a flat-clinching process combined with material forming technology was investigated to join aluminum alloy sheets using an experimental and a numerical method. Al106...

A fracture analysis of highly loaded particulate reinforced composites was performed using laser moire interferometry to measure the displacements within the plastic zone at the tip of an advancing crack. Ten castings were made of five different particulate reinforcement-aluminum alloy combinations. Each casting included net-shape specimens which were used for the evaluation of fracture toughne...

In this study, firstly, the YL12 aluminum alloy is used as experimental materials, then in the following experiments it is cut in JJ-I-type water jet machines, and 1,000 group data are gotten by measurement. In each group data, pressure, material thickness, surface roughness, abrasive flow and traversing speed are included. Next, BP artificial neural network is established. In this network, the...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of three different surface conditioning methods on the shear bond strength (SBS) of metal brackets bonded directly to gold alloy with chemically cured resin. METHODS Two hundred ten type III gold alloy specimens were randomly divided into six groups according to the combination of three different surface conditioning methods (alu...

OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to quantify the metallic ions released by various dental alloys subjected to a continuous flow of saliva and to estimate the nutritional and toxicological implications of such a release. METHODS Four pieces of three nickel-based, one noble, one high-noble and two copper-aluminum alloys were cast and then immersed in a continuous flow of artificial saliva...
