This paper deals with the nature, typical surface features and common forms of corrosion. It also reports corrosion rates in various locations and under differing environmental conditions, viz. tropical, marine, urban and ...

A novel machine designed and constructed to exert cyclic axial load for fatigue testing is herein reported. The main features of the test rig constitute the sinusoidal form of load wave and the stress - controlled, system ...

In this paper, the behaviour of engineering materials as influenced by fluid velocity, operating temperature, humidity and duration of exposure to chemical and/or electro-chemical action is carefully studied, corrosive ...

In this paper fatigue testing facilities are first classified in accordance with a number of features which include purpose, type of loading, method of load application and transmittal as well as control system. Owing to ...

This paper deals with the strength of grey cast iron components subjected to combined bending and tension, this case of loading being met in C-frames and clamps, crane hooks and various eccentrically—loaded protruding ...
