the microstructure of dual phase steels can be considered as a matrix of ferrite phase reinforced by martensite particles. recent measurements show that the mechanical properties of the ferrite phase are changed with the distance from the martensite grains. in this paper, a new method has been proposed to consider this phenomenon in finite element modeling of dual phase steels microstructure. i...

The aim of this research was to assess the effect of fat type and concentration as well as the continuous phase viscosity on the rheological properties of an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion. Thus, sunflower oil and tallow fat were used as the dispersed phase of the emulsion both at 10 and 50% (w/v) and CMC solutions (at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% w/v) were acted as the continuous phase. CMC solutions and em...

A previously introduced two phase model was used to assess its capability in predicting the behavior of reinforced soil walls under working stress conditions. The two phase model is a homogenization method based on the virtual work theorem. The reinforced soil medium is considered as the superposition of two continuous phases, the reinforcement and matrix phases that interact within the medium....

Experimental determination of solubility and ternary phase diagram of chiral compound are of tedious and time consuming tasks, and in many cases, there is not enough experimental data for different enantiomeric compositions to access the experimental ternary phase diagram. Using thermodynamic models with predictive capability, having less dependency on experimental data, affords a great advanta...

a method based on the genetic algorithm (ga) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. upon application of the ga to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the vle, vlle and lle phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the binary interaction parameters (bip) of the models were obtained. using the method proposed in this ...
