Enhancing the Strength and Formability of Magnesium Alloys for Lightweight Structural Applications (2017-06-29)Given their low density and high specific strength, magnesium alloys show excellent potential for use in lightweight structural applications. Current challenges facing these materials are poor strength levels and limited ...
-
(2010-07-14)The performance of hot mix asphalt, Portland cement concrete, unbound base, and subbase layers in a pavement are significantly affected by aggregate shape characteristics. Classification of coarse and fine aggregate shape ...
-
(2009-05-15)This thesis investigated the microstructure and mechanical property of RRR( high purity) and RG (low purity) niobium (Nb) sheet material. RRR Nb is used in the fabrication RF cavities. Our method involves processing bulk ...
-
(2009-05-15)The purpose of this work was to study learn about grain refinement mechanisms and texture development in cast n-type Bi90Sb10 alloy caused by severe plastic deformation. The practical objective is to produce a fine grained ...
-
(2021-03-23)Commercial Mg alloys’ demand in aerospace and automotive applications have significantly increased due to its lightweight properties and higher mechanical strength than its aluminum counterparts. Processing Mg alloys into ...
-
(2009-05-15)Ultra-fine grained (UFG) materials have attracted considerable interest due to the possibility of achieving simultaneous increase in strength and ductility. Effective use of these materials in engineering applications ...
-
(2009-05-15)Traditional remote sensing image classification has primarily relied on image spectral information and texture information was ignored or not fully utilized. Existing remote sensing software packages have very limited ...
-
(2010-07-14)In visualization problems, surface shape is often a piece of data that must be shown effectively. One factor that strongly affects shape perception is texture. For example, patterns of texture on a surface can show the ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Non-contacting annular seals are internal sealing devices used in rotating machinery, such as multistage centrifugal pumps and compressors. Their design affects both efficiency and rotor stability. Traditional plain and ...
-
(2010-10-12)Texture segmentation is an effortless process in scene analysis, yet its neural mechanisms are not sufficiently understood. A common assumption in most current approaches is that texture segmentation is a vision problem. ...
-
(2014-12-12)Interest in Mg alloys has significantly increased in recent years for weight-critical applications. However, Mg alloys show low strength and poor low temperature formability, due to the limited available slip systems and ...
-
(2014-07-01)The need for high strength, light weight structures in automotive and aerospace applications has driven a resurgence of interest in magnesium and its alloys. Unlike aluminum, wrought magnesium typically has a high degree ...
