In this study, the production of beta'-Si6-zAlzOzN8-z (z = 3) powders by the carbothermal reduction and nitridation of kaolinite (Al2O3 center dot 2SiO(2)center dot 2H(2)O) of Turkish origin (Can-Canakkale) was investigated ...

Plasma sprayed ceramic coatings are successfully used in many industrial applications, where high wear and corrosion resistance with thermal insulation are required. In this study, various types of Al2O3-TiO2 plasma sprayed ...

The results obtained from experimental, statistical (best fit) and numerical studies were found to be in good agreement, and showed that a hyperbolic relationship existed between the density and pressure.

This paper reports the experimental findings on the development of the premixed elemental Al5Cu and Al5Cu0.5Mg powder metallurgy alloys. Aluminum powder was mixed with copper and magnesium powders in a macro- and a micro-level ...

Sintering and aging behaviours of Al-Cu-Mg powder metallurgy (PM) alloy produced from elemental powders were examined. After evaluating results from thermal analysis, tests were carried out on Al-4Cu alloys with magnesium ...

In this study AlN nanowire was produced via direct nitridation (DN) method. In order to investigate the effect of nitridation on the formation of nanowire, elemental aluminum powder and ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) mixture ...

Some machines, such as heavy presses and rammers, can be exposed to big shock and inertial forces under dynamic severe working conditions. Even if vibration isolation to the foundations of machines operating under dynamic ...

This paper presents a conceptual model for the Web-based virtual testing and learning (WVTL) in applied sciences, especially in the area of materials science and engineering. WVTL is not an existing field but rather an ...
