in this study, ultrafine grained 2024 al alloy based b4c particles reinforced composite was produced by mechanical milling and hot extrusion. mechanical milling was used to synthesize the nanostructured al2024 in attrition mill under argon atmosphere up to 50h. a similar process was used to produce al2024-5%wt. b4c composite powder. to produce trimodal composites, milled powders were combined w...

The NW-trending Denizli basin of the SW Turkey is one of the neotectonic grabens in the Aegean extensional province. It is bounded by normal faults on both southern and northern margins. The basin is filled by Neogene and Quaternary terrestrial deposits. Late Miocene- Late Pliocene aged Kolankaya formation crops out along the NW trending Karakova uplift in the Denizli basin. It is a typical flu...

A microstructure consisting of ultrafine grained (UFG) ferrite with average grain size of ~ 0.7 µm and dispersed nano-sized carbides was produced by cold-rolling and tempering of the martensite starting microstructure in a low carbon steel. Subsequently, fine grained dual phase (DP) steel consisting of equiaxed ferrite grains with average size of ~ 5 µm and martensite islands with average size ...

Fossil Diodontidae in Tropical America consist mostly of isolated and fused beak-like jawbones, and tooth plate batteries. These durophagous fishes are powerful shell-crushing predators on shallow water invertebrate faunas from Neogene tropical carbonate bottom, rocky reefs and surrounding flats. We use an ontogenetic series of high-resolution micro CT of fossil and extant species to recognize ...

This study focuses on evaluating the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of improved fine-grained soils. A large database of unconfined compressive strength of clayey soil specimens stabilized with fly ash and blast furnace slag based geopolymer were collected and analyzed. Subsequently, using adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), a model has been developed to assess the UCS of stabi...

One of the most important subjects in relation of water resources quality in the many of river is the chemical composition of waters and conservation of water quality in the watershed. Geological formations in any region of the earth are the main surface and foundation that water flows on the bed and strata of formation, which in fact they affect their characteristics on water quality as positi...

A multi-instrument study of the regolith Jezero crater floor units by Perseverance rover has identified three types regolith: fine-grained, coarse-grained, and mixed-type. Mastcam-Z, Wide Angle Topographic Sensor for Operations eNgineering, SuperCam Remote Micro Imager were used to characterize texture, particle size, roundedness where possible. Mastcam-Z multispectral laser-induced breakdown s...

Liquefaction is one of the most important and complex topics in geotechnical earthquake engineering. In recent years, passive site stabilization method has been proposed for non-disruptive mitigation of liquefaction risk at developed sites susceptible to liquefaction using colloidal nano-silica stabilizer. In this research, 4 box models were used to investigate the ability to uniformly deliver ...

aisi 304l austenitic stainless steel with different grain sizes of 0.5 -12 μm was obtained through the martensiticprocess. corrosion behavior of different samples was investigated in a 0.5m hcl solution using open circuitpotential, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests. also, the correlationbetween the grain size and pitting corrosion resistance was asses...
