Metal matrix composites are known for their excellent specific mechanical properties. Nevertheless, because of the thermal expansion mismatch between the matrix and the reinforcements, thermal stresses arise at the interfaces of such materials. In order to ...
The importance of molecular relaxation in photoacoustic spectroscopy is discussed. The particular case of methane monitoring in dry oxygen using a 1.65-μm laser-based photoacoustic sensor is reported. The slow vibration-to-translation energy transfer occur ...
Since the bulk Al-Cu-Fe quasicrystals are extremely brittle below 700 K, a quasicrystalline coating deposited on a steel substrate by thermal spraying was used for mechanical spectroscopy measurements at temperatures in the range of 300-800 K. The internal ...
Thermal stress relaxtion at the interfaces in magnesium matrix composite has been studied by mechanical spectroscopy. Two specimens were processed by a gas pressure infiltration method. In one sample, the metallic matrix was unidirectionally oriented with ...
The threshold pressure P-0 for infiltration of Al-12 wt.% Si alloy into compacts of mixtures of alumina and silicon carbide particles having largely different size is investigated. The results are in line with those recently derived from infiltrations of A ...
The motivation of this work derives from the need of the cutting tool industry to improve its products in order to support harder and harder working conditions, namely increasing cutting speeds and working on stronger modern materials. The lifetime of the ...
The importance of molecular relaxation in photoacoustic spectroscopy is discussed. The particular case of methane monitoring in dry oxygen using a 1.65-μm laser-based photoacoustic sensor is reported. The slow vibration-to-translation energy transfer occur ...
Mechanical spectroscopy measurements were performed on decagonal quasicrystalline Al-Cu-Fe-Cr coatings of three different thicknesses deposited on a mild steel substrate. The mechanical loss spectra indicate that the internal friction is mostly caused by t ...
Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), catalytically grown by chemical vapour deposition (CVD), have been successfully employed in the development of bulk composites, where aluminium alloys (Al-4%Cu-1%Mg-0.5%Ag, called WFA) or commercial pure magnesium have ...
Sub-ppm (HCl) and (H2O) monitoring using photoacoustic spectroscopy is reported in optical fibre manufacturing for the production of low-water-peak fibres. Contamination sources of the carrier gas used for fibre preforms manufacturing were identified and d ...
