A continuum surface layer effect in polycrystalline aggregatesLaurent, Michel P. 08 June 2009 (has links)
Uniaxial tension tests on uniform cross section specimens of Ti-6Al-4V and aluminum 7475-T651 show that the stress in the direction of load application determined by x-ray diffraction and the nominal applied stress display the expected linear correspondence up to a maximum stress somewhat below the bulk yield paint. Above this stress, the xray stress is noticeably less than expected. Upon unloading, there is a substantial acquired compressive residual stress. Because the x-ray diffraction measurements provided average stress values in a surface layer of only a few grain diameters, these results suggest that the surface layer of the metal is yielding at a lower stress than the bulk. This anomalous behavior is duplicated qualitatively with a continuum model of an aggregate of soft and hard square grains obeying the Von Mises yield criterion. The effect is purely mechanical. No material effects, such as lower yield point or dislocation density for the surface grains, are invoked. The continuum effect decreases rapidly with depth, becoming negligible for depths exceeding 2-3 grain or domain diameters. Further work is required to refine the model for real systems and to assess the importance of material effects acting in conjunction with the continuum effect. / Master of Science

Estudo das interações magneto-elásticas em ligas de cromo-vanádio / Study of magnetoelastic interactions on chromium-vanadium alloysCastro, Elisabeth Pavão de 21 March 1988 (has links)
Medidas de atenuação ultrassônica e constante elástica em ligas de Cr-V, utilizando técnicas de pulso eco foram realizadas e as transições na temperatura de Neel, TN, estudadas. Um modelo teórico é proposto para descrever os comportamentos da atenuação e constante elástica perto da transição em TN. De acordo com o modelo proposto a adição de vanádio diminui drasticamente o coeficiente de difusão, modificando a natureza da transição. Foram utilizadas amostras de cromo contendo 0,2%V; 0,5%V; 0,67%V; 1,0%V e 1,5%V. A partir da dependência aproximadamente linear de TN com a concentração de vanádio conclui-se que 3,3% V corresponderá à TN= 0K. O efeito do campo magnético até 4,5T revelou-se insuficientemente para a obtenção de monodomínio magnético e não causa nenhuma variação mensurável em TN / Measurements of ultrasonic attenuation and elastic Constant in Cr-V alloys, using pulse echo techniques were realized and the transitions at the Neel temperature, TN, were studied. We propose a theoretical model which describe the behavior of the ultrasonic attenuation and elastic Constant near the transition in TN. According to the theoretical model the addition of Vanadium to chromium, drastically diminishes the diffusion coefficient thus changing the nature of the transition. It was used samples of chromium containing 0,2%V; 0,5%V; 0,67%V; 1,0%V and 1,5%V. From the approximately linear dependence of TN with the vanadium concentration it was concluded that 3,3%V corresponds to TN= 0. The effect of magnetic fields up to 4,5T was insufficient to produce single-Q samples, and did not cause any mensurable variation in TN

The viability of beneficiating vanadium pentoxide to ferrovanadium in South AfricaCorbett, Lance, Brendan January 1992 (has links)
A research report submitted to the Faculty of Mining Engineering.
University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfillment of the
requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering / Hlstorically South Africa has enjoyed a privileged position with its vast natural resource
base in that it has.not needed to generate wealth but has merely explored this base, The
only true way to create wealth, is to add value to a commodity by means of beneficiation,
South Africa is the world's largest producer of vanadium accounting for approximately 70% of the western world's requirements. Unfortunately the South African producers of vanadium mainly export vanadium in the form of slag and pentoxide, instead or ferrovanadium and other prime alloys. ( Abbreviation abstract) / AC 2018

Crystal plasticity modeling of Ti-6Al-4V and its application in cyclic and fretting fatigue analysisZhang, Ming 10 March 2008 (has links)
Ti-6Al-4V, known for high strength-to-weight ratio and good resistance to corrosion, has been widely used in aerospace, biomedical, and high-performance sports applications. A wide range of physical and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V can be achieved by varying the microstructures via deformation and recrystallization processes. The aim of this thesis is to establish a microstructure-sensitive fatigue analysis approach that can be applied in engineering applications such as fretting fatigue to permit explicit assessment of the influence of microstructure. In this thesis, crystal plasticity constitutive relations are developed to model the cyclic deformation -TiAl has beenabehavior of Ti-6Al-4V. The development of the slip bands within widely reported and has been found to play an important role in deformation and fatigue behaviors of Ti-6Al-4V. The shear enhanced model is used to simulate the formation and evolution of slip bands triggered by planar slip under static or quasi-static loading at room temperature. Fatigue Indicator Parameters (FIPs) are introduced to reflect driving force for the different crack formation mechanisms in Ti-6Al-4V. The cyclic stress-strain behavior and fretting fatigue sensitivity to microstructure and loading parameters in dual phase Ti-6Al-4V are investigated.

No. of bitstreams: 0 / Made available in DSpace on 2016-06-22T13:06:23Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 / O diabetes mellitus é uma doença que afeta o metabolismo de carboidratos, gorduras e proteínas e tem como aspectos característicos a hiperglicemia e a excreção da glicose pela urina. Estima-se que o número de casos da doença aumentará muito nos próximos anos, o que a torna preocupante para o sistema público de saúde dos países mais afetados. Além do uso de medicamentos alopáticos, tratamentos complementares como o uso de plantas medicinais pode contribuir para melhorar a qualidade de vida do paciente. Entre as ervas utilizadas, tanto no Brasil quanto em outras partes do mundo, encontram-se Bidens pilosa e Salvia officinalis. Os mecanismos responsáveis pela atividade antidiabética das plantas, geralmente estão associados aos seus metabólitos secundários, no entanto, a influência de micronutrientes não deve ser descartada. Estudos mostram que há uma correlação entre a concentração destes elementos com a presença e o desenvolvimento da doença. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar os elementos Cr, Fe, Mg, Mn, V e Zn em Bidens pilosa (picão) e Salvia officinalis (sálvia) cultivadas com tratamento normal (substrato comercial) e com adição dos elementos acima mencionados, e verificar a influência destes elementos na produção de metabólitos secundários que podem atuar como agentes hipoglicêmicos. A determinação e quantificação elementar foram feitas por meio da técnica de Análise por Ativação Neutrônica Instrumental, e para análise dos metabólitos secundários utilizou-se a técnica de Cromatografia Líquida de Alta Eficiência. O resultados indicaram que B. pilosa e S. officinalis podem ser usadas como fontes de Cr, Fe Mg, Mn, V e Zn. Foi observado que a B. pilosa absorveu maior quantidade de Fe no grupo tratamento, e que a S. officinalis foi capaz de acumular Zn nas folhas independente de ter ou não sido tratada. Quanto aos compostos do metabolismo secundário, os resultados indicaram que sua produção pelas plantas aparentemente não foi alterada pela adição da solução dos nutrientes. / Dissertação (Mestrado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP
