In the present study, effect of Ni alloying element on the characteristics of deposited weld metal of E7018-G electrode was evaluated. Therefore, electrodes contained different amounts of Ni (0-1.7wt.%) were designed, manufactured and welded via SMAW process. Microstructural studies revealed dichotomy effect of Ni on the deposited weld metal microstructure, i.e. increasing the Ni content up to ...

Motivation: The composition of a metallic liquid can significantly affect the partitioning behavior of elements. For example, some experimental solid metal-liquid metal partition coefficients have been shown to increase by three orders of magnitude with increasing S-content of the metallic liquid [e.g. 1]. Along with S, the presence of other light elements, such as P and C, has also been demons...

Finite element simulation of stretch flanging process was carried out in order to investigate the effect of process parameters on maximum thinning (%) in stretch flanging process. Influences of initial flange length, punch die clearance, width of sheet metal blank and blank holding force were investigated on maximum thinning (%). Finite element simulation was done using FEM software package ABA...

The cutting is an important machining technology, in which is belong to nonlinear large deformation, involving material nonlinear, geometry nonlinear and original bug, the thermal energy coupling question, and the nonlinear boundary condition, and so on. For the processing of metal cutting, using the large-scale commercial finite element theory, the coupling finite element model is established ...

Stress analysis of functionally graded composite plates composed of ceramic, functionally graded material and metal layers is investigated using 3-D finite element method. In FGM layer, material properties are assumed to be varied continuously in the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution in terms of the volume fraction of a ceramic and metal. The 3-D finite element mo...

This paper presents a stabilized finite element formulation for nearly incompressible finite deformations in hyperelastic–plastic solids, such as metals. An updated Lagrangian finite element formulation is developed where mesh dependent terms are added to enhance the stability of the mixed finite element formulation. This formulation circumvents the restriction on the displacement and pressure ...

In this study, "Buckling Limit of Strain" (B.L.S.) is introduced as one of the most important limiting factors in cold roll forming process. B.L.S. is calculated by the finite element procedure. Then for two particular processes with existing analysis and experimental results, B.L.S. has been determined and evaluated. LUSAS 12.3 is used for finite element analysis. The results show that when bu...

We isolated and analysed two genomic DNAs that encode the heat-shock protein Hsp30 from Coriolus versicolor. The amino acid sequences substitute only three amino acid substitutions. The promoter regions contain the consensus heat-shock element, a xenobiotic-response element, a stress-response element, and a metal-response element. The levels of mRNAs for Hsp30 increased markedly after exposure ...
