Wear is a complicated phenomenon caused by the relative movement of two contacting surfaces compressed together by a normal force. Prediction of the wear, in most cases, requires various experiments and microstructural characterization of the contacting surfaces. Mathematical models based on physical concepts could provide considerable help in understanding the physical behavior and hence the p...

Wear behaviors of silane coated silica (SiO2) nanoparticle-filled glass fiber reinforced polymer composites were investigated depending on the type coating (KH550: -Aminopropyl-triethoxy-silane and KH570: -Methacryloxypropyl-trimethoxy-silane) nanoparticle percentages within matrix. Unlike cases given in most research studies, silanized nanoparticles used as received. Therefore, synergistic ...

The purpose of this research paper is to study the tool wear and surface roughness of AISI 8620 material using coated ceramic tool by turning process. Ceramic cutting tools have outstanding material hardness, resistance to high temperatures, wear resistance, chemical stability and hot hardness. Ceramic tool with Al2O3 + TiC (golden) coating was used to investigate the surface roughness and tool...

in this research, surface composite layers containing nano sized tib2, al2o3-tib2, zro2 and cnt particles have been fabricated on aluminum alloy substrates by friction stir processing. the effects of different processing variables such as number of passes and strengthening particle distribution, hardness, and wear properties of surface nanocomposite layers have been evaluated by electron micros...

functionally graded aluminium/zirconia metal matrix composite was fabricated using stir casting technique followed by horizontal centrifugal casting process and a hollow cylindrical functionally graded composite (150 x 150 x 16 mm) was obtained with centrifuging speed of 1200 rpm. the microstructural evaluation and hardness test was carried out on the outer and inner surface of the functionally...

PURPOSE To investigate the medical profiles of patients referred to Iran Lens Clinic with myopic/myope-astigmatic refractive errors. METHODS Medical records of 182 patients (364 eyes) with myopic/myope-astigmatic refractive errors that underwent orthokeratology contact lens wear and fulfilled a 6-month period of follow-up were recruited. Efficacy and safety of these contact lenses in improvin...
