ABSTRACT
 Material types with different chemical and physical properties are employed by being joined in industrial applications. The major objective is to generate high-performance prochannels bringing outstanding of materials together. Many conventional methods, primarily welding method such as casting, adhesion, rivet weld, bolts joining procedures. Among the mechanical locking, a novel...

Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings on AZ91 Mg alloy were sealed in calcium nitrate solutions at different pH values (3, 4 and 5). Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was added to study the effect of SDS corrosion resistance coatings. The microstructure, chemical composition investigated by means SEM, XPS, XRD electrochemical tests. performance improved due precipitation Ca-containing precipi...

Mechanism of fatigue crack initiation was investigated in ultrafine-grained (UFG) magnesium alloy AZ91 processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). Fatigue behaviour of UFG material was compared to the behaviour of material in an initial as-cast state. Focused ion beam technique (FIB) was applied to reveal the surface relief and early fatigue cracks. Two substantially different mechanism...

Burning extinguished once th...
