In the paper, genetic algorithm is introduced in the study of network authority values of BP neural network, and a GA-NN algorithm is established. Based on this genetic algorithm-neural network method, a predictive model for fatigue performances of the pre-corroded aluminum alloys under a varied corrosion environmental spectrum was developed by means of training from the testing dada, and the f...

The role of Mg2Si in the electrochemical behavior of Al-Si-Mg aluminum alloys has been studied using four experimental aluminum alloys with variations in the Si/Mg molar ratio (A1-0.12, A2-0.49, A3-0.89, A4-1.05), in neutral aerated 0.1M NaCl solutions. Accordingly, the corrosion potential in open circuit (Eoc) and polarization resistance (Rp) were measured. Results show that the augment in Si/...

in this paper, welding feasibility between aa1100, aa5050 and aa6082 aluminum alloys and a441 aisi steel by friction stir welding has been studied. mathematical analysis of the heat generation during process showed that the maximum temperature produced in aa6082 aluminum alloy and a441 aisi joint but heat distribution in aa1100 aluminum alloy was higher than the other alloys. the investigation ...

Compared with the conventional manufacturing of aluminum sheet metal, the forming of so called Tailored Heat Treated Blanks (THTB) enables the production of complex aluminum sheet metal parts [1], [2]. The reasons for the lower forming behavior of aluminum alloys are well founded in the material properties. Especially smaller values for uniform elongation (< 30 %) and vertical anisotropy (< 1) ...

7000 series Aluminum alloys are widely used in the automotive industries for structural lightweight components due to their exceptional high strength to weight ratio. However, this class of aluminum alloy is difficult to join by conventional fusion welding techniques so Friction stir welding (FSW) widely is used for welding this alloys. The process has been demonstrated to be effective and is c...

Damage to mechanical components caused by wear is considered to be an important issue for mechanical engineers. For the purpose of wear resistance, it is necessary to improve the material properties of the mechanical elements. Furthermore, low friction plays an important role in saving energy. Hence, it is important to establish a key technology for wear resistance and low friction through appr...

in the present work, the effect of aluminum content, austenitizing temperature and austempering time and temperature on the mechanical properties and hardness of fe-c-al grey cast iron was investigated. for this purpose, three alloys containing 1, 2 and 4 weight percent of aluminum were provided. the tensile samples were austenitized at 850?c and 900?c for 120 min, followed by austempering proc...

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...

Aluminum castings have played an integral role in the growth of the aluminum industry since its inception in the late 19th century. The first commercial aluminum products were castings, such as cooking utensils and decorative parts, which exploited the novelty and utility of the new metal. Those early applications rapidly expanded to address the requirements of a wide range of engineering speci...
