in this research using statistical analysis the effect of machining parameters such as cutting velocity, feed rate, and tool type on machining power (p m ) in machining process of en-ac 48000 aluminum alloy has been studied. a taguchi l 27 standard array has been utilized as the most economical array to evaluate the factors and their interaction. en-ac 48000 alloy is frequently used in automoti...

superplastic forming (spf) is a manufacturing process utilized in the automotive industry to produce complex geometry aluminum or magnesium alloy components which cannot be fabricated at room temperature. this paper investigates the effects of the die entry radius and the interfacial friction coefficient on the required forming time and thickness distribution of a superplastic formed part. a co...

The synthesis of materials with tailored properties is one of the most active areas of material science [1, 2]. Among so many materials, γ-alumina due to the significant application in catalysis, electronic and ceramic industry has been studied extensively [3]. Various processes have been employed for the preparation of high quality alumina, including sol-gel processing from aluminum alkoxides....

background: fluoride is used increasingly in a variety of industries in india. emission of fluoride dust and fumes from the smelters of primary aluminum producing industries is dissipated in the work environment and poses occupational health hazards. objective: to study the prevalence of health complaints and its association with fluoride level in body fluids of smelter workers in a primary alu...

The debate over the pros and cons of aluminum vs. copper conductors has been discussed for many years. Many of the concerns are based on old information and also misinformation. These concerns center on the very different properties of the two materials and their suitability for application within the Electrical Equipment Industry. Reliable performance from the conductors, the joints and termin...

Al-Ti-B master alloys are widely used in the aluminum industry as grain refiners for the control of the microstructure of the aluminum alloys. The SHS (self-propagating high-temperature synthesis) is an ex situ method that uses exothermic reactions to sustain the chemical reaction in a combustion wave. The advantages of SHS are the low energy requirement, simplicity and product purity. However,...

Bottom-gate all-aluminum thin film transistors with multi conductor/insulator nanometer heterojunction were investigated in this article. Alumina (Al₂O₃) insulating layer was deposited on the surface of aluminum doping zinc oxide (AZO) conductive layer, as one AZO/Al₂O₃ heterojunction unit. The measurements of transmittance electronic microscopy (TEM) and X-ray reflectivity (XRR) revealed the s...

The parenchymal lung diseases caused by metal inhalation include interstitial fibrosis, giant cell interstitial pneumonitis, chemical pneumonitis, and granulomatous disease, among others. We reported two cases of granulomatous lung disease with occupational exposure to metal dusts other than beryllium. They had worked in the battery manufacturing industry for 7 years and in an aluminum-processi...

Adhesive bonding of aluminum holds some possible advantages over the traditional methods of construction in the aerospace industry. However, there is uncertainty about the mechanism of adhesive bonding and the changes occurring during environmental attack which reduce the bond strength. An improved understanding will aid in the development of better techniques for non-destructive testing (NDT) ...
