Good Day
What are the obvious features to differentiate the failure which was as the result of sensitization or reheat cracking on the 316 stainless steel weld. The crack initiated on the weld toe and sensitization on the HAZ was observed. The failure happened after 36hours of operation. The...
I have been manufacuturing components using an AA6xxx and now i want to use AA5xxx. unfortunately i am having problems machining the component from AA5xxx. Although it is difficult to manufacture this component, is there way or best technique (either expensive or not) of manufacturing the 5xxx...
I want to couple 5xxx series and 6xxx serie Al alloys so want to know if there might be a possibility of galvanic corrosion when immersed under seewater/corrosive medium since they are both Al and i assume that they might be close to each other in the series (Galvanic Series.
There are various equations used with indentation technique to determine fracture toughness of ceramics. My question is: is there any universal equation for determining the fracture toughness if not, which those equations can be used for SiC?
some of these equations are as follows:
1. KIC =...
Can anyone tell me the mechanical properties of SiC manufactured using chemical vapour deposition (CVD) method. I need to compare the properties of this material with the one manufactured by the hot pressed (HP) method. Thanx.
