in this paper, the results of surface and ground water quality monitoring during drilling of three deep exploratory wells in geothermal project in north west of sabalan in meshkinshahr are analyzed. the region has been investigated by various researchers to generate electricity using geothermal energy. drilling in deep geothermal projects, a variety of materials such as cement, bentonite, barit...

In 7 free-recall experiments, the benefit of creating drawings of to-be-remembered information relative to writing was examined as a mnemonic strategy. In Experiments 1 and 2, participants were presented with a list of words and were asked to either draw or write out each. Drawn words were better recalled than written. Experiments 3-5 showed that the memory boost provided by drawing could not b...

Primljeno (Received): 2011-10-10 Prihvaćeno (Accepted): 2012-02-09 Original scientific paper It is well-known from practice that only some cups whose height is smaller than diameter can be successfully drawn in one step. Many steps require more tools and larger total manufacturing costs. The main objective of this study was to minimize the number of deep-drawing steps. The paper presents the ap...

In this paper, traditional process design rules for deep drawing of box shapes are used to develop constraints within a dynamic programming (DP) approach to generate a set of alternative optimized process plans that minimize the number of drawing stages and heat treatments. The DP approach is capable of scanning a wide range of different alternative values for process parameters which allows fo...

Abstract   Fiber-metal laminates (FMLs) are new type of composite materials which could improve defects of traditional composites in ductility, formability, impact and damage tolerance. Drawing behavior of a thermoplastic based FML was investigated consisting of glass-fiber reinforced polypropylene composite laminate and aluminum AA1200-O as the core and skin layers, respectively. The effects o...

This paper presents a new methodology for complete solution of general shape deep drawn parts. Evaluation of forming severity, estimation of the punch load and prediction of the thickness variation are the major results obtained in this work. The punch work is the summation of the homogenous work of flange deformation and bending and frictional works. To evaluate the strain energy of the flange...

In this paper, unique tests into the production of galvanised steel wires in industrial conditions were presented. It was demonstrated that three phenomena occur during wire-drawing process at high speeds: namely, zinc sticking to surface drawing drums, coating grinding caused by a larger friction area between tool and material, combined with detachment calibrating part die until wire breaks is...
