Processing And High Temperature Deformation Of Pure And Magnesia Doped Alumina
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-22)Creep resistance is an important design criterion at high temperatures especially when continuous attempts are made to increase the efficiencies by increasing the operating temperatures. Alumina is an important high ... -
Processing Of Zirconia Based Honeycombs And Evaluation Of Thermo Mechanical Properties
(2010-08-16)Ceramic cellular solids, mainly honeycombs and foams, are a novel class of composite materials where one phase is an interconnected network of solid struts or plates and the other one an empty phase or possibly a fluid. ... -
Processing, Characterization And Evaluation Of A Functionally Graded Ai - 4.6% Cu Alloy
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-22)In some applications the stress across the entire cross-section of a component is not uniform but varies with position. For example, maximum shear stress is highest at the inner surface of a thick-walled cylinder subjected ... -
The Processing, Consolidation And Deformation Behavior Of Bulk Amorphous AI2O3-Y2O3 Ceramics
(2011-07-08)Processing of Bulk Metastable Oxide Ceramics Oxide ceramic materials are extensively used in various modern application domains which require properties such as high temperature stability or creep resistance, wear ... -
Pseudo-binary and Pseudo-ternary diffusion couple methods for understanding the growth of interdiffusion zone between bond coat and superalloys
Ni-based superalloys are widely used in jet engine applications. Bond coats are applied to these alloys for protection during service in a very harsh environment at high operating temperature. The addition of Pt to the ... -
Pulsed Laser Ablation Deposition of Intermetallic Thin Films: A Study of Evolution of Metastable Phases and Ultra-fine Microstructures
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-27)This thesis is devoted to the deposition of intermetallic thin films by laser ablation deposition (LAD) and their characterization. Pulsed laser ablation and subsequent deposition of the ablated vapours produces films under ... -
