(2010-07-01)Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are a new class of structural materials and exhibit unique combinations of mechanical properties. As a result, their mechanical behavior has been an active area of scientific pursuit in the ... -
Effect of Heat Treatment and Modification on Flow and Fracture Behaviour of a Newly Developed Al-Si Based Cast Alloy
(2018-04-17)The compression behavior of a newly developed near eutectic Al-Si based cast alloy with three different microstructures has been investigated in the present work. Microstructures with modified and unmodified Si particles ... -
Effect of High Pressure Torsion Processing on Precipitate Containing Alloys
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes yield excellent grain refinement in metallic materials by application of very large shear strains while retaining the initial sample dimensions. Its effects on simultaneously ... -
Effect of High-Pressure Torsion and Natural Ageing on Hardness, Electrical Resistivity and Fatigue Properties of Commercially Pure Cu
Commercially pure Cu was processed through high-pressure torsion (HPT) at a pressure of 6 GPa starting from ¼ up to 50 turns. These samples were then naturally aged for 1.75 years under the laboratory condition. Subsequently, ... -
Effect of Humidity and Temperature on Wear of TiN and TiAIN Coatings
(2018-05-30)When loss of material due to sliding of two solids is promoted/prevented, in the presence of chemically reacting liquid or gas, tribochemical wear is said to occur. Tribochemical wear, in which corrosive media promotes ... -
Effect of Interface Roughness on Mechanical Strength of Adhesively Bonded CFRP Joints- Experimental and Numerical Studies
Composite materials are well known for their superior properties such as specific strength, specific modulus, tailor-ability in different directions, fatigue resistance, durability, low weight, and low thermal expansion. ... -
The Effect Of Interference Of Strip Foundations And Anchors On Their Ultimate Bearing Capacity And Elastic Settlement
(2011-01-10)Due to close proximity of different civil engineering structures, the ultimate bearing capacity and failure pattern of adjoining footings/anchors are often influenced by their mutual interference. The present thesis is an ... -
