Activation Volumes Of Carbon Diffusion In Fcc Iron-Nickel Alloys, J. Keiser, Manfred Wuttig

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The Dis accommodation technique was used to determine the activation volume of carbon diffusion, ΔV, in six fcc iron-nickel alloys. Measurements were made at temperatures ranging from 68 to 90 °C and pressures up to 6 kbar on samples having a nickel content between 31 and 63 at.%. A maximum activation volume of 3.9 cm3/mole was found at 34 at.% nickel. The compositional dependence of ΔV is satisfactorily reproduced by a magnetic-energy continuum model in which it is assumed that the activation free energy of diffusion is essentially ferromagnetic in origin. © 1972 The American Physical Society.

Irradiation Enhanced Decomposition Of A Nickel-Carbon Solid Solution, B. L. Shriver, Manfred Wuttig

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This investigation was performed to determine the effects of room temperature neutron irradiation on the distribution of carbon in a nickel-0.3 wt.% carbon alloy. The experiment consisted of comparing the amount of carbon in solid solution and the internal stresses of both unirradiated and irradiated (1013 fn-cm-2 < ΦF < 1018 fn-cm-2) samples following isochronal anneals between 100 and 1200°C by using the magnetic Dis accommodation technique. The results indicate that the amount of carbon remaining in solid solution decreases with increasing neutron dose. At temperatures below 200°C this is due to the trapping of carbon by mobile irradiation-produced defects. Between 200 and 600°C the formation of metastable carbides is enhanced by the presence of irradiation-produced defects. No differences are observed in irradiated and unirradiated samples above 600°C. © 1972.

Effects Of Cold Working Under Pressure On Subsequent Yield, J. G. Hoeg, Robert L. Davis

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A method utilizing high pressure fluid environments is described whereby a three-dimensional subsequent yield surface was determined for 304 stainless steel cylindrical parent specimens of this material were prestrained in axial compression under fluid pressure and then small sub specimens were sectioned from these parent specimens. Finite element techniques were used to optimize the parent specimen size so that a zone of uniform axial stress woidd result during the prestraining. Longitudinal strains in this zone were monitored during the prestraining and the subspecimens were cut from this region in a manner that did not allow the machining to appreciably affect …

Finite-Element Analysis Of Pressure Vessels, Robert L. Davis, H. Dean Keith

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The finite-element technique has been applied in the analysis of a variety of pressure vessel problems. The example problems described in this paper suggest that the finite element method is perhaps the most suitable means currently available for obtaining quick and accurate solutions for real-life pressure vessel problems. Finite-element programs can be used by the practicing engineer. Companion programs are available that can be used to check the input data and graphically display both the input and output data. © 1972 by ASME.

Computer Method For Airport Noise Exposure Forecast, John Michael Bateman

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The major problem facing air transportation for the next decade is aircraft noise. The noise level due to the operation of large jet aircraft has created a very serious annoyance problem to the people living near of adjacent to jet airports. The noise problem has developed both for take-off and landing operations of these aircraft with take -off noise causing the greatest annoyance factor. A technique called Noise Exposure Forecast (NEF) has been developed to identify the annoyance factor of these noises to people and activities on the ground. With these NEF ratings or numbers, planners can better determine the …

Optimization Analysis Of A Simple Position Control System, Arthur G. Cannon

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

One of the problem areas of modern optimal control theory is the definition of suitable performance indices. This thesis demonstrates a rational method of establishing a quadratic performance index derived from a desired system model. Specifically, a first order model is used to provide a quadratic performance index for which a second order system is optimized. Extension of the method to higher order systems, while requiring more computations, involves no additional theoretical complexities.

Flood Control Modeling, Peter E. Delle Donne

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This is a research report that discusses some continuous and discrete modeling techniques. The report applies these techniques to the analysis of Canal 38 (Kissimmee River) part of Central and South Florida Flood Control District. The analysis is based on recorded data for defining the physical systems parameters. Established parameters are mathematically related to define a descriptive model for Canal 38. The modeling procedure of 'trial and error' is used to assemble the model with measures of merit, the integral square error, and root mean squared error. General simulation considerations are discussed for application of the mathematical model.

An Investigation Of Methods For Reuse Of Rubber Tires, Charles Edward Armbruster

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Methods of reusing/recycling the more than 250 million automobile and truck tires which are worn out each year were investigated. The existing methods of reusing tires account for about 30 percent of the volume of scrap tires generated each year. These methods are, Retreading, Reclaiming (by reducing to ground up rubber and fiber), and Tire Splitting (stamp items out of sidewall and tread areas). Several possibilities for reusing/recycling the unused 70 percent were discovered. These methods are as follows: Destructive Distillation -- a method of recovering chemicals from tires by pyrolitic action. It is anticipated that eventually as much as …
