Effect of multi-pass friction stir processing on the microstructure, mechanical and wear properties of AA5083/ZrO2 nanocomposites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, multi-pass friction stir processing using zirconia nanoparticles was performed on AA5083 sheets to fabricate surface nanocomposites. Effect of using different number of passes on the microstructure, ...
Nonlocal damage modelling in clay/epoxy nanocomposites using a multiscale approach
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
This study proposed a concurrent multiscale method to model damage in clay/epoxy nanocomposites. The method uses a nonlocal damage formulation to regularize the damage model. The multiscale method used, is based on the ...
TLP bonding of Ti-6Al-4V and Mg-AZ31 alloys using pure Ni electro-deposited coats
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding of Mg-AZ31 and Ti-6Al-4V alloys was performed using pure thin Ni electro-deposited coat interlayer (12 μm). The effect of bonding temperature, time and pressure on microstructural ...
Comparison of 1D and 3D heat and mass transfer models of a counter flow dew point evaporative cooling system: Numerical and experimental studyÉtude comparative numérique et expérimentale de modèles de transfert de chaleur et de masse 1D et 3D d’un système de refroidissement évaporatif à point de rosée à contre-courant
