6061 Al alloy and AZ31B Mg alloy were joined by lapping TIG welding process with Zn transition metal. The formation and distribution mechanism of IMCs of Al/Mg joint, and the relationship of microstructure and mechanical property were discussed. The introduction of Zn transition metal reduces the Mg/Al IMCs effectively. The microstructure in the fusion zone near the Mg substrate composes of three regions. B zone contains of only MgZn2 IMCs. That is the place of highest micro-hardness in the weld seam. A and C zones characterize with solid solution precipitated on the MgZn2 basement which can enhance the ductility of Mg/Al joint. This result indicates that increasing the solid solution precipitated on IMCs can improve the mechanical property of Mg/Al joint.

The relationship of flow stress to the interparticle path of two phase alloy systems is discussed and the similarity of two phase alloy systems to wire or fiber reinforced composites is described. Experiments were performed on iron wire reinforced 6061 aluminum alloys which show that the flow stress in these systems can be expressed by a similar relationship as documented for two phase alloy systems, namely, σflow = C1 log λ + C2, where C1 and C2 are constants, σflow is the flow stress, and λ is the interwire spacing within 4, 6, and 8 wire aluminum alloy composites.

The B4C/BN composites were fabricated by hot-pressing process in this research. The B4C/BN composites included the B4C/BN microcomposites and the B4C/BN nanocomposites. The B4C/BN microcomposites were fabricated by hot-pressing process, and the B4C/BN nanocomposites were fabricated by chemical reaction and hot-pressing process. In this research, the phase composition, microstructure, mechanical property and machinability of the B4C/BN microcomposites and B4C/BN nanocomposites were investigated. The XRD patterns results showed that there existed B4C phase and h-BN phase in the hot-pressed composites. The microstructure of the B4C/BN composites was investigated by SEM and TEM. The B4C/BN microcomposites and the B4C/BN nanocomposites sintered bulks exhibited the homogenous and compact microstructure, and the h-BN particles were homogenously distributed in the B4C matrix. The mechanical property of the B4C/BN microcomposites and the B4C/BN nanocomposites decreased gradually with the increase of h-BN content. The mechanical property of the B4C/BN nanocomposites was remarkably improved in comparison with the B4C/BN microcomposites. The machinability of the B4C/BN microcomposites and the B4C/BN nanocomposites increased gradually with the increase of h-BN content, the drilling rates of the B4C/BN composites specimens increased gradually with the increase of h-BN content. The relationship between the microstructure and machinability of the B4C/BN composites was analyzed. The microstructure showed that the weak interface of B4C/BN and cleavage behavior of laminate structured h-BN particles remarkably improved the machinabilty of B4C/BN composites.

The present study presents the relationship of temperature and deformation as well as the analysis of heat transfer and deformation produced during welding of a steel plate. The method consists of strategically welding a base metal plate (A-36) with a high-hardness filler material to obtain an overall increment in wear resistance. However, the thermal cycles generated during welding produced deformation, thus changing the flatness of the plate. Different sequences of welding were applied to obtain a relationship between the heat transfer and deformation. A filler material was applied to 100 holes (1/2” diameter and 8 mm depth) in a ½” steel plate. The temperature and deformation were measured for 3 different welding sequences. Plate 1 reached a final mean temperature of 467 °C and deformation of 0.016”, plate 2 reached 472.9 °C and -0.008”, and plate 3 reached 354.2 °C and 0.020”. The results indicate that the deformation is not function of the final temperature, instead the deformation is function of the slope of the curve temperature vs deformation. The behavior of the curve temperature vs deformation is linear for all cases studied, confirming the findings of the lowest deformation for plate 2 which exhibited the lowest slope.

The fundamental and technological importance of transition metal oxides, and the relationship of the present work to previous monographs dealing with transition metal oxides are reviewed. The relatively abundant 3d-transition metal oxides are contrasted with the rarer 4d- and 5d-transition metal oxides that exhibit a unique interplay between spin-orbit, exchange, crystalline electric field and Coulomb correlations. The combined effect of these fundamental interactions yields peculiar quantum states and empirical trends that markedly differ from those of their 3d counterparts. General trends in the electronic structure are related to generalized phase diagrams of the magnetic and insulating ground states. The intriguing absence of experimental evidence for predicted topological states and superconductivity in these materials are discussed.

Aluminum alloys are used widely in many applications due to its low in density which can lead to a lightweight product. A high percentage of Cu in the chemical composition of the 2024 aluminum alloys helps withstand the occurrence of corrosion as well. Thus, aluminum alloy grade 2024 is used as a material for several parts in aircraft and spacecraft components, (e.g. the body of commercial airplanes), as well as parts in many other applications. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) is used widely in joining material parts together. Inappropriate welding parameters usually cause problems such as porosity in the welding. The occurrence of porosity is undesirable in welding because it can affect the strength of the welding area as well as other properties. Tensile residual stress near the surface of the material expedites the fatigue crack initiation. The relationship of porosity and residual stress for GTAW parts was very limited in literatures. Therefore, the objective of this research was to investigate the relationship of porosity to the occurrence of residual stress after the welding process. Full factorial design of experimental technique was used for setting up welding conditions of the GTAW. The specimen with highest porosity was selected for further analysis of its effect on residual stress. Porosity was analyzed by the radiographic testing (RT) and the residual stress was measure by X-ray diffraction (XRD) using sin2 method. The results showed that the highest porosity in the welded bead was found at the current of 130 A, the welding speed of 210 mm./min., and the wire feed rate of 700 mm./min. The results also suggested that lower current and welding speed caused an increase in porosity. The residual stress results on both longitude and transverse directions showed tensile residual stress at locations around the welded bead area.

In this paper, the features of weld formation, porosity, arc behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties of 6061 Al alloy thin sheet welds by direct current (DC) double pulse metal inert gas (MIG) welding process are investigated and compared with the traditional DC MIG welding process. Results show that continuous one-side welding with back forming weld beads without spatters, undercuts or cracks can be obtained by using the DC double pulse MIG welding process. The porosity of weld bead can be largely reduced by using the process. The arc of DC double pulse MIG welding is stable without arc blowout, and the metal transfer model of DC double pulse MIG welding is better than that of DC MIG welding. Microstructure of the weld bead by DC double pulse MIG welding shows a dendrite structure and it is fine and uniform. The average ultimate tensile strength and elongation of the weld bead by DC double pulse MIG welding can get to 228MPa, 80% of base metal, and 7.6%, 63% of base metal.

AbstractA parallel resistance model (PRM), in which the total resistance, Rtotal, is given by a parallel connection of resistance of a filament, Rfila, and that of a film excluding a filament, Rexcl, was proposed to understand DC electric properties of resistive RAM (ReRAM). Here, the relationship of 1/Rtotal = 1/Rfila + 1/Rexcl is satisfied. To prove the validity of this model, the dependence of the relationship between resistance and temperature, R(T), of Pt/NiO/Pt on an area of a top electrode, S, was investigated. It was clarified that R(T) depended on S, which is the result definitely expected by the PRM. It was also clarified that smaller S is crucial to observe intrinsic properties of a filament of ReRAM.
