this study is considering a micropolar fluid flow over a porous stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and uniform magnetic field. the effects of local variation in thermal conductivity of micropolar fluid on heat transfer rate from the sheet are investigated; besides, the impacts of radiation, magnetic field and porous sheet on variations of thermal boundary layer thickness are ...

the use of polymer composite (frp) as a reinforcement material for the repair and strengthening of important components of reinforced concrete structures, particularly columns, has found wide spread. in this study, the effect of intermediate layer on improving the confinement behavior of reinforced concrete columns has been investigated. to achieve the objectives of the study, 14 cylindrical re...

Metal coating, metal materials are of two or more layers. The coating metals are widely used in industry. These sheets or saving performance and cost effective solution or both the user. Performance coating metals according to usage in structural applications, settings thermal expansion of the thermo-mechanical control (thermostat), electrical, magnetic, corrosion resistant, flowering and decor...

‎The problem of two-phase MHD boundary layer flow, heat and mass transfer over a stretching sheet with fluid-particle suspension and thermal radiation has been studied. The effect of mass transfer in dusty fluid over a stretching sheet is considered for the first time. The governing equations are reduced to a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations under suitable similarity transforma...

the cold roll bonding of al on aisi 304l stainless steel was carried out to fabricate the al/304l/al clad sheet composites. the maximum bond strength of 20 n/mm was acquired just by 38% reduction, for which the tearing of the aluminum sheet occurred during the peeling test. the microstructural evolution during subsequent postannealing heat treatment was systematically studied based on the impur...

The effects of input parameters on the square-cup deep-drawing process for a two-layer aluminum/steel laminated sheet were investigated. Each layer was 0.7 mm thick, and the input parameters covered in the investigation were punch nose radius (PR), die shoulder radius (DR), the clearance between a punch and die (CPD), blank holder force (BHF), and layer arrangement (LA). The effects of the inpu...

In this paper the effects of adding an extra layer within a sandwich panel and coretypes in top and bottom cores on quasistatic loading are studied experimentally. The panel includes polymer composite laminated sheets for faces and the internal laminated sheet called extra layer sheet, and two types of crushable foams are selected as the core material. Quasistatic tests were done by ZWICK testi...

many research studies have been performed on forced convection (active) solar dryers for fruit and vegetables. a short survey of these showed that applying the forced convection solar dryer not only significantly reduced the drying time but also resulted in many improvements in the quality of the dried products. active indirect and mixed-mode thin layer solar drying experiments were conducted o...
