Pure iron has been demonstrated as a potential candidate for biodegradable metal stents due to its appropriate biocompatibility, suitable mechanical properties and uniform biodegradation behavior. The competing parameters that control the safety and the performance of BMS include proper strength-ductility combination, biocompatibility along with matching rate of corrosion with healing rate of a...

Ultra-fine grained (UFG) structure (~0.6 µm) was produced in the stir zone (SZ) of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy joints using friction stir processing (FSP) cooled by liquid nitrogen (N2). A new experimental set-up was used to simultaneously quench the lower and upper surfaces of the samples during the processing. In addition, FSPed joints, using a steel backing plate, were produced at room temperatur...

Thermo vision are used in military, police custom traffic control, industrial and other specific applications for collecting and processing thermo visual information from infrared images. There is a problem in the steps of implementation of the developed methods and algorithms for infrared image processing in real time practical applications of thermo vision systems. Here is proposed to exploit...

Abstract Exploring the use of seedless blackcurrant pomace, a fibre-rich by-product juice pressing, in foods is favourable due to its nutritional profile but also for economic and sustainability aspects. Current applications are limited products which rapid fibre swelling, high water solubility or low sedimentation not essential. In this study, functional properties pomace were modified by ther...

this research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. by considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

Nanowires (NWs) exhibit thermo-mechanical properties that are distinct from their bulk properties, and their understanding is critical for the reliability, manufacturability, and optimization of a wide range of devices consisting of NWs. Here, molecular-dynamics simulation reveals a rich size-temperature “phase diagram” for the mechanical response of a zinc-oxide NW under tension. For smaller d...

in this paper, a thermoelasticity solution for steady state response of thick cylinders which are subjected to pressure and external heat flux in inner surface is presented. displacement field obeys the kinematics of the first order shear deformation theory (fsdt). it is assumed that the temperature varies both along the length and the thickness. the variation of the temperature occurs linearly...

loading conditions and complex geometry have led the cylinder heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. one of the most important durability problems in diesel engines is due to the cracks valves bridge area. the purpose of this study is a thermo-mechanical analysis of cylinder heads of diesel engines using a two-layer viscoplasticity model. in this article, mechanical prope...

the dissipated energy from periodic deformation is regarded as the main reason for heat generation and temperature rise inside the tire domain. however, the mechanical behavior of rubber parts is highly temperature dependent. in most performed investigations, the influence of thermal effects on stress/ deformation fields of pneumatic tires is ignored and just temperature distribution is conside...
