The fabrication of titanium demands attention to cleanliness. It is not uncommon for shops that handle several metals to isolate an area to be used especially for titanium. The area set aside for ...

Rajeev Ranjan in his thesis investigates the influence of low-frequency vibration-assisted welding on the mechanical properties and microstructure of shielded metal arc welded mild steel plates.

(a1-d1) 3D visualization images of the quasi in situ XRT test sample evaluating the size and spatial distribution of microvoids. (a2-d2) Reconstructed orientation maps of prior β grains based on the ...

A research team led by professors Zhang Zhefeng and Zhang Zhenjun from the Institute of Metal Research (IMR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has proposed a novel strategy for fabricating an ...

Filler metals for 36Ni alloy cryogenic pipeline construction need further refining to obtain overmatching mechanical properties relative to the base metal. This article provides an overview of ...

Medical devices use a variety of metal components that are often welded to form a secure and permanent bond. Options available for welding processes are limited because of certain constraints such as ...
