International objectives towards improved resource and energy efficiency require new manufacturing processes, such as the proposed thermomechanical tangential profiled ring rolling process. A rapid cooling-down for microstructural adjustment a final calibration step via cold forming are combined into one single step. The reduction of process steps reduced number heating cycles present opportuni...

Blood cell interaction with vascular endothelium is important in microcirculation, where rolling adhesion of circulating leukocytes along the surface of endothelial cells is a prerequisite for leukocyte emigration under flow conditions. HL-60 cell rolling adhesion to surface-immobilized P-selectin in shear flow was investigated using a side-view flow chamber, which permitted measurements of cel...

Continuous improvements of properties for individual parts are indispensable for perpetual development of aircraft engines. Concerning casing and seal, simulation of ring rolling process is one of the most attractive tools to reduce the cost and time and to improve the properties and the reliability at the same time. In order to obtain both practical prediction accuracy and acceptable computati...
