The purpose of this study was to evaluate the durability of tungsten carbide burs for the fabrication of titanium crowns using two dental CAD/CAM systems (DECSY, Digital Process, Japan and Cadim, Advance, Japan). A tungsten carbide bur in each system was examined and used without fracture to fabricate 51 titanium crowns. For both systems tiny chips were found on the bur blade at the 11th machin...

The first example of propylene production from 2-butene in promising yield is described by reacting trans-2-butene over tungsten hydrides precursor W-H/Al(2)O(3) at 150 °C and different pressures in a continuous flow reactor. The tungsten carbene-hydride active site operates as a "bi-functional catalyst" through the disfavoured 2-butene isomerisation on W-hydride and 2-butenes/1-butene cross-me...

An efficient, enantioselective synthesis of erythro-4-deoxyglycals has been developed using asymmetric aldehyde allylation and tungsten-catalyzed alkynol endo-cycloisomerization as the key steps. These versatile synthetic scaffolds have been elaborated to a variety of products using stereoselective transformations that are complementary to those available using the corresponding threo glycals. ...

An adaptive control based on fuzzy logic has been implemented for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). This adaptive controller eliminates the problems frequently experienced with traditional Automatic Voltage Control (AVC) systems, which do not adequately perform for all operational conditions because of the non-linear relationship between the arc voltage, current and arc length. This paper examin...

Electrochemical surface science of oxides is an emerging field with expected high impact in developing, for instance, rationally designed catalysts. The aim in such catalysts is to replace noble metals by earth-abundant elements, yet without sacrificing activity. Gaining an atomic-level understanding of such systems hinges on the use of experimental surface characterization techniques such as s...

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, also called as gas tungsten welding 1. (a) Schematic of TIG welding Process (b) Variety of tungsten electrodes. The activated TIG (ATIG) welding process mainly focuses on increasing the depth of penetration and the reduction in the width of weld bead has not been paid. Tungsten inert gas welding, TIG is widely applied in manufacturing process for different The ...

The dynamic thermomechanical response of a tungsten heavy alloy is investigated via modeling and numerical simulation. The material of study consists of relatively stiff pure tungsten grains embedded within a more ductile matrix alloy comprised of tungsten, nickel, and iron. Constitutive models implemented for each phase account for finite deformation, heat conduction, plastic anisotropy, strai...

Supported WOx/SiO2 catalysts were investigated for propylene metathesis as a function of tungsten oxide loading and temperature. The catalysts were synthesized by incipient-wetness impregnation of an aqueous ammonium metatungstate solution onto the silica support and calcined at elevated temperatures to form the supported tungsten oxide phase. In situ Raman spectroscopy under dehydrated conditi...

This paper presents the results of a study aimed at establishing the temperature distribution during the welding of magnesium alloy sheets by Pulsed Current Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (PCGTAW) and Constant Current Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (CCGTAW) processes. Pulsing of the GTAW welding current influences the dimensions and solidification rate of the fused zone, it also reduces the weld pool volum...
