Optimization of Material Properties and Process Parameters for Tube Hydroforming of Aluminum Extrusions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Analysis of process optimization for hydroforming of central-bulge and T-branch from AA6063 tubes is conducted for W-temper and T4 heat-treated conditions. Systematic characterization of AA6063 ...
Dynamic Fracture and Strain Rate Behavior of Aggregates Used in Transportation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The static and dynamic uniaxial compressive strengths of coarse aggregate materials used in portland cement concrete (PCC) were determined under dry and saturated conditions for three blast furnace slags, three limestones, ...
A Unified Phenomenological Model for Tensile and Compressive Response of Polymeric Foams
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tensile and compressive stress-strain responses were obtained for various densities of polymer foams. These experimental data were used to determine relevant engineering parameters (such as elastic ...
Determination of Subsurface Hardness Gradients in Plastically Graded Materials via Surface Indentation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Graded materials with high surface hardness and ductile cores are popularly used in high performance bearing applications to resist surface wear and fatigue damage. The gradient in hardness with ...
