Vivek A. Sujan Steven Dubowsky Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Mechanical Engineering Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 Abstract. The basic technology for a robotic system is developed to automate the packing of polycrystalline silicon nuggets into fragile fused silica crucible in Czochralski (melt pulling) semiconductor wafer production. The highly irregular shapes of the nugg...

with due attention to the conditions of climate in beyranshahr (lorestan). and for controlling about fair recommend , date of planting , also determining about the fair way of adornment , of planting , in other words , accumulation of desired crucible in hectare unit for  k.s.c 647 digit . this plan based on the way split factorial in the model of random blocks, four repeat, in village of golla...

High density BaZrO3 ceramic crucibles have been successfully fabricated and used to grow high quality YBa2Cu3O7-x single crystals by the BaO-CuO self flux method. The ceramic crucibles are inert and insoluble in the Y2O3-BaO-CuO melt, have a long lifetime, and can be used repeatedly for crystal growth runs. The crystals grown using the crucibles have not only high chemical purity (99.99-99.995%...

Crucible is the indispensable vessel in smelting of superalloy, and service life crucibles quite important to development superalloy. In order extend crucible for superalloy smelting, alumina-based are prepared by slip casting, mullite fibers used as reinforcement phase. The effect on microstructure property was studied. appropriate content beneficial comprehensive performance crucibles. mechan...

Oxidation resistance of Ni-base single crystal superalloy is substantially improved when melted using a CaO crucible compared to that an Al2O3 crucible. In order understand the underlying mechanism, sulfur segregation at oxide/substrate interfaces was characterized aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscope with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDS) and three-dimen...

he global ocean is the last physical frontier on Earth. Covering 70 percent of the planetary surface, it is the largest, most complex biome we know. The ocean is a huge, mobile reservoir of heat and chemical mass. As such, it is the " engine " that drives weather-climate systems across the ocean basins and the continents, directly affecting food production , drought, and flooding on land. Water...

The microstructure evolution and interface characteristics of a directionally solidified Ti-43Al-3Si (at.%) alloy in an alumina (Al2O3) crucible with new Y2O3 skull-aided technology were investigated. The Y2O3-skull that is in contact with the TiAl-melt is relatively stable, which results in a more controlled reaction between the skull and the melt than in the case of an Al2O3 crucible is used....
