Stress-Induced Martensite Transformation In An Alloy Of The Copper-Aluminum-Nickel System, Gary D. Alexander May 1959

Stress-Induced Martensite Transformation In An Alloy Of The Copper-Aluminum-Nickel System, Gary D. Alexander

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

It was intended that the alloy be thoroughly investigated for martensite transformation that would make the alloy "super-elastic," but due to the many difficulties that arose this was not possible. Attempts to grow a single crystal from the cast alloy were not successful because of the difficulties that were encountered with the Kanthal resistance furnace (referred to later). Consequently, the growing of the single crystal was abandoned and the alloy was tested in the poly-crystalline form.


Ferromagnetic Alloys In The System Cu-Mn-Zn, W. Michael Yim May 1951

Ferromagnetic Alloys In The System Cu-Mn-Zn, W. Michael Yim

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this investigation is to determine whether ferromagnetic alloys exist in the ternary sys­tem Cu-Mn-Zn analogous to the other Heusler alloys. The work in this thesis is a preliminary investi­gation on these alloys using a common metallographic re­search technique and augmented with X-ray methods.


Electroplating Of Chromium Upon A Nickel Plated Magnesium Alloy, Harmel Dawson Jan 1944

Electroplating Of Chromium Upon A Nickel Plated Magnesium Alloy, Harmel Dawson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

A nickel plating operation for magnesium alloys was investigated and proved successful in plating a small sample of a typical commercial magnesium alloy, Dowmetal J1.


Electrolytic Deposition Of Iron, Irving M. Kenoffel May 1943

Electrolytic Deposition Of Iron, Irving M. Kenoffel

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In this thesis the purpose was to obtain a good iron deposit from a relatively simple bath. The deposit was to be of good nature and low in Carbon content. Also included is a summary of the uses to which electrolytic iron can be put as well as a summary of work done by other researchers in depositing iron electrolytically.


Electrical Resistivity Measurements Of Powder Metal Compacts, John M. Fitzpatrick May 1942

Electrical Resistivity Measurements Of Powder Metal Compacts, John M. Fitzpatrick

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

This work, as it was originally planned, was the arranging of an apparatus whereby electrical resistivity measurements could be made on powder compacts. It was also to include measurements on a series of copper-nickel compacts both before and after sintering.


The Effects Of Some Percentages Of Nickel On The Annealing Of Cartridge Brass, A. Edward Zezula May 1942

The Effects Of Some Percentages Of Nickel On The Annealing Of Cartridge Brass, A. Edward Zezula

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The most important element in the alloying of steels, has also been used quite extensively as a third constituent in copper-zinc alloys. The chief characteristics of nickel which make it desirable as an alloying element are its toughness, high strength, and resistance to corrosion.


Some Preliminary Investiagtions Of The Magnetic Permeabilities Of Alloys Of The Ferromagnetic Metals, John H. Gambill Jr. May 1941

Some Preliminary Investiagtions Of The Magnetic Permeabilities Of Alloys Of The Ferromagnetic Metals, John H. Gambill Jr.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The problem presented for this thesis was an investigation of the magnetic properties of the alloys produced by the methods of powder metallurgy. The question behind this was the correlation of the magnetic properties with the bonding properties and with the diffusion of the constituents.


Powder Metallurgy, Cecil R. Waldron May 1939

Powder Metallurgy, Cecil R. Waldron

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The metal powders may be produced in a number of different ways. In metals where the intercrystalline material is brittle enough, they may be ground in a ball mill or eddy mill. The fineness of such a powder is more or less controlled by the grain size of the original metal.


The Electrical Conductivity Of The Copper-Aluminum Alloys., William W. Hintalla May 1937

The Electrical Conductivity Of The Copper-Aluminum Alloys., William W. Hintalla

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Among the many aluminum alloys which have been studied are the binary copper-aluminum alloys. These have proven to be among the most useful of the alumi­num alloys thus far worked upon.


The Electrolytic Deposition Of Chromium Upon Aluminum, E. Fults, L. D. Voerge May 1932

The Electrolytic Deposition Of Chromium Upon Aluminum, E. Fults, L. D. Voerge

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose or this investigation is primarily to determine the best conditions for plating chromium on aluminum. The work was carried out with the hope of obtaining coherent deposits, and of determin­ing the conditions under which such deposits may be duplicated.
