Inconel 718, a hard-to-cut superalloy is reputed for having poor machining performance due to its low thermal conductivity. Consequently, the surface quality of the machined parts suffers. The surface roughness value must fall within the stringent limits to ensure the functional performance of the components used in aerospace and bioimplant applications. One doable way to enhance its machinability is the adequate dissipation of heat from the machining zone through efficient and ecofriendly cooling environment. With this perspective, an experimental and integrated green-response surface machiningbased- evolutionary optimization (G-RSM-EO) approach is presented during this investigation. The results are compared with two base-line …
Optimization Of Chemistry And Process Parameters For Control Of Intermetallic Formation In Mg Sludges, Yintian Fu
Optimization Of Chemistry And Process Parameters For Control Of Intermetallic Formation In Mg Sludges, Yintian Fu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Intermetallic formation in sludge during magnesium (Mg) melting, holding and high pressure die casting practices is a very important issue. But, very often it is overlooked by academia, original equipment manufacturers (OEM), metal ingot producers and even die casters. The aim of this study was to minimize the intermetallic formation in Mg sludge via the optimization of the chemistry and process parameters. Through the analyses of the commercial sludges, it was found that AZ91D recycling ingot sludge, and AZ91D, AM60B and AE44 die casting sludge contained intermetallic of 2.77wt.%, 10.33wt.%, 34.07wt.% and 44.81 wt.%, respectively. The Al8Mn5 intermetallic particles were …
Finite Element Analysis Of Surface Hardening Treatments Of Steels For Automotive Powertrain Applications, Filippo Jones
Finite Element Analysis Of Surface Hardening Treatments Of Steels For Automotive Powertrain Applications, Filippo Jones
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Surface hardening is a procedure that is usually performed on steel components, in order to impart in these the strength and surface hardness that are necessary for their correct operation, whilst maintaining a reasonable value of ductility in the overall component.
The latter is usually composed of a sequence of heat treatments: carburizing, quenching and tempering. Each of these have different effects that, if correctly combined, can lead to the desired final mechanical properties in the component.
Carburizing is a process that increases the amount of carbon concentration at the component surface. Quenching is a quick decrease in temperature that …
Optimization Of Chemical Compositions Of Al-Si-Cu-Ni-Sr Alloys With High Strengths And Electrical Conductivities, Yuxian Li
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Mechanical strengths and electrical conductivity are the very important engineering properties of lightweight metallic materials used in the automotive industry, especially for battery-powered electric vehicles (BEV). However, the main issue is that high strength and high electrical conductivity are mutually exclusive due to physical nature of these properties. The aim of this study is to develop new cast aluminum alloys for the production of rotor bar in the rotor with high as-cast strength and electrical conductivity. A design of experiment (DOE) technique, Taguchi method, was used to develop high as-cast strength and electrical conductivity alloys with various element addition of …

Correlation Between Microstructure And Mechanical Properties Of Press-Hardenable Steels For Various Quenching Rates, Radha Thakkar
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Manufacturing structural automotive components by hot stamping advanced high strength steel sheets with tailored mechanical properties helps to reduce vehicle weight and improve crashworthiness. The purpose of this research work is to establish a relationship between the die temperature in hot stamping, the corresponding as-quenched microstructural features and mechanical properties. A series of experiments were carried out in which 1.4 mm 22MnB5 and 1.4 mm 37MnB4 steel sheet specimens were austenitized to 930°C and quenched between dies preheated to different temperatures. The mechanical properties were determined from tensile tests and hardness measurements and the corresponding microstructures were analyzed. It was …

Interfacial Heat Transfer In Squeeze Casting Of Cast Al Alloy A380 And Mg Alloy Az91 And Wrought Alloy Az31, Luyang Ren
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The weight reduction of vehicles and airplanes in the automotive and aerospace industries is urgently needed due to the government regulation and market demand. To satisfy engineering performance of lightweight auto and aero components, high strength light alloys such as aluminum (Al) or magnesium (Mg) alloys are usually adopted. This study was intended to explore a solution for casting high strength cast and wrought Al and Mg alloys. Before light alloys can be utilized for mass production, critical processing parameters need to be accurately determined. The interfacial heat transfer coefficient is one of the most important factors in casting processes. …

In the recent two decades, superhydrophobic surfaces' properties and their potential applications have attracted much attention. With the main advantages of self-cleaning, anti-icing, and drag-reduction, the superhydrophobic surfaces can be applied to many industry fields. But the traditional fabrication methods developed in the last twenty years for the superhydrophobic surfaces were focusing on mimicking nature. Specifically, most of the fabrication methods were based on the micro, and nano-scale structure of plants and animals, which came with the problems that such weeny structure on the surfaces would be damaged easily in the practical application without the self-healing capability like the creatures …

Aluminum is more widely employed metal in industries due to its advantageous characteristics. But there are some limitations in the usage of aluminum which can be resolved by developing composites with reinforcement. So, AMMC is gaining more recognition in the industrial sector with regards to its mechanical behavior and possess good thermal conductance. Aluminum based MMC reinforced with TiC and graphene particles were developed successfully by two step stir casting. Two step stir casting was incorporated to overcome the disadvantages of the traditional stir casting technique that results in increased porosity and agglomeration which results in the non-homogeneous distribution of …
