Abstract: The present paper discusses some of the friction related problems associated with the upsetting and sheet forming of nickel chromium base superalloys at temperatures between ambient and 1200 F. ...

Abstract: Attempts have been made to predict loads in deep drawing Ti–6Al–4V, AISI 304, and Inconel X taking into account anisotropy and work-hardening characteristics. This has been accompanied by a ...

Abstract: An attempt is made to rationalize the fracture behavior of pearlitic gray irons on both the microstructural and macrostructural levels. Along with the effects of inoculation, those of as-cast ...

Abstract: A special three-dimensional crack-tip element has been developed to investigate a simple and widely applicable fracture toughness test method. Previous experimental work with the double-torsion ...

Abstract: The foundation of the double ligament tensile test for determining mechanical properties of wrought as well as cast materials has been established. With the aid of the finite element stress ...

Abstract: The present work is introduced and is shown to be a logical extension of work by Chung and Swift, Ray and Berry, et al. The authors introduce the deep drawing process and analyze the ...

Abstract: Determination of yield and ultimate strengths and elongation in three orthogonal directions by means of the double ligament tensile test permits detailed exploration of anisotropy in rolled plate, ...

Abstract: One of the major objectives of solidification modeling is to determine, prior to pouring, whether porosity, such as massive cavities and dispersed pores, are likely to appear in the casting. ...

Abstract: Pore formation remains a concern in the area of rapid manufacturing by the laser engineered net shaping process. Results usually conflict on the origin of these pores; whether it should stem ...
