Micro-Mechanisms Associated with Friction Stir Welding of Aluminum with Titanium
(2018-01-10)Out of the known aerospace metal and alloys, Aluminium (Al) and Titanium (Ti) are important due to their unique combination of properties, such as strength, ductility and corrosion resistance etc. For these reasons, welding ... -
Micro-PIV Study Of Apparent Slip Of Water On Hydrophobic Surfaces
(2010-07-01)The condition of no relative velocity of fluid past solid is termed as ‘no-slip boundary condition’. This condition is a general observation in fluid mechanics. However, several research groups have recently reported slip ... -
Micro-scale Fracture Testing of Graded (Pt,Ni)Al Bond Coats
(2018-04-16)PtNiAl bond coats are diffusion aluminide coatings deposited on superalloy based turbine blades for oxidation resistance and improved adhesion between the substrate and the YSZ thermal barrier coating on top. They are ... -
Microbially-induced Mineral Flocculation and Flotation with Proteins and Polysaccharides Isolated from Paenibacillus
The most significant environmental issue that has arisen in the mining industries over the last decade is that of acid mine drainage (AMD) from tailing dumps and waste mined rock piles. AMD is caused by the oxidation of ... -
Microgravity Flow Transients in the Context of On-Board Propellant Gauging
(2018-02-15)It is well known that surface tension of a liquid has a decisive role in flow dynamics and the eventual equilibrium state, especially in confined flows under low gravity conditions and also in free surface flows. One such ... -
Micromechanical modeling of fracture and fatigue behavior of cementitious composites
The ubiquitous use of concrete as a construction material in the civil engineering industry demands a thorough understanding of its failure process under different types of loading. The composite nature of cementitious ... -
Micromechanical understanding of the macroscopic features of dense granular materials
The prevalence of granular materials in nature (soil, beach sand, rubble pile asteroids) and in several industries (cement, food grains, pharmaceutical powders) has motivated extensive research towards understanding the ... -
Micromechanics of Wedge and Cone Indentation of Metallic Specimens with Subsurface Voids
Near-surface voids and pores occur in metal parts manufactured by processes as diverse as casting, powder metallurgy, and additive manufacturing. These pores range in size from a few microns to a few mm, depending on the ... -
Microscale mechanical behaviour of ceramic matrix composites considering processing e ects
The current work explores the phenomenon of microscale damage mechanism driven quasi- ductile behaviour of C/BN/SiC ceramic matrix composite (CMC) at the microscale focusing on process-microstructure-property correlations. ... -
Microstructural Developments and Mechanical Properties of Electroless Ni-B Coating
(2018-04-24)Phase transformation behavior, micro structural development, mechanical and tribological properties of electroless Ni-B coating was characterized using different characterization techniques. As deposited electroless Ni-B ... -
Microstructural Evolution of Directionally Solidified Ni-Al-Re/Ru Alloys
Nickel based superalloys are high temperature materials which find application as blade and disc components of jet engines due to their ability to retain their mechanical properties at temperatures close to 0.8 of their ... -
Microstructural Stability of Fully Lamellar and Duplex y-TiAl Alloys During Creep
