Avaliação das propriedades mecânicas e elétricas da liga 6201 não refinada, modificada com os teores de cobre (0,05 e 0,3)% para transporte de energia elétrica

No presente trabalho, foram feitos experimentos com a liga de Al – 0,6%Mg - 0,8%Si não refinada, com variações no teor de cobre (0,05% e 0,3%), que objetivaram avaliar dois aspectos do comportamento da liga. O primeiro aspecto diz respeito a afinidade entre esta e o molde, no qual busca se observar o efeito das variáveis térmicas de solidificação sobre a estrutura do fundido e sua correlação com propriedades mecânicas e elétricas, o segundo aspecto está relacionado com o comportamento intrínseco da variação da composição química quando submetida a baixas velocidades e taxas de resfriamento. Para a avaliação das variáveis térmicas de solidificação (velocidades das isotermas liquidus, taxas de resfriamento) utilizouse um dispositivo de solidificação unidirecional horizontal. Os lingotes produzidos a partir da solidificação da liga passaram pelos processos mecânicos de usinagem, laminação e trefilação, examinados em diferentes posições e diâmetros, através do ensaio de tração e condutividade elétrica. Foram analisadas as fraturas em função das microcavidades e diferentes concentrações de teores de cobre constatando-se que em relação ao material deformado a frio, o LRT tem uma tendência de crescimento para a liga de maior concentração de cobre. Os valores avaliados também possibilitaram concluir que a condutividade elétrica cresce quanto maior for o diâmetro das microcavidades e menor o teor de cobre. Com o objetivo de se avaliar somente o comportamento intrínseco da variação da composição química da liga, foi utilizado um segundo dispositivo de solidificação, molde em “U”, pintado internamente com solução de caulim que atribui ao molde baixas velocidades de resfriamento. Os resultados mostram que para os dois teores de cobre há uma tendência de crescimento do LRT com o aumento da redução sofrida pelas amostras, sendo o LRT maior para a liga com maior teor de cobre. Atribuímos este comportamento ao maior teor de soluto que por sua vez apresentou melhor resposta a deformação plástica, encruando mais o material. Entretanto, a caracterização elétrica ocorre de modo inverso, a exemplo do constatado na solidificação unidirecional, onde o menor teor de cobre foi mais eficiente.

Avaliação do comportamento reológico na retração plástica e na fissuração de argamassas de concreto auto-adensável

This paper investigated the influence of the amount of superplasticizer and mineral adding - silica fume and basaltic filer - in plastic shrinkage and cracking of self-compacting concrete (SCC) mortars. Initially analysis was performed of the rheological behavior of cement paste and mortars phases of the compositions of SCC. Then the deformations of mortars were measured by the effect of shrinkage and evaluation of cracking. On plastic shrinkage and cracking, the composition with silica fume showed superior results, independent of wind and superplasticizer content, relative to the composition with addition of basalt filler. However, the composition with silica fume showed superior results only in the tests with imposed ventilation at vertical plastic deformation. The rheological behavior affected directly the plastic shrinkage and cracking at early ages, fact confirmed by the analysis of capillary pressures of mortars tested.

Estudo da deformação heterogênea no ensaio do anel de atrito

The plastic deformation is widely used in the metallurgical market due to its positive factors such as low prices and high speed production. Forming process products are obtained in high quality, both surface quality and mechanical properties. Friction is an importante factor in metal forming. Friction study in metal forming can be accomplished indirectly, such as the ring test of friction. Two samples of different materials being mild steel and copper alloy were used. The results showed the influence of friction in the flow behavior of the deformation of the second phase, as evidenced by standard metallography. It is observed that in the outer regions of the ring, plastic deformation occured in the radial direction. In the central region of the disc deformation occured in the direction of compression and the inner region of the ring flux lines showed a significant deformation in the radial direction towards the center of the ring

Análise da reversão do fundo de latas de alumínio para bebidas - Buckle

This work approaches the main methods of plastic deformation of metals, with a focus on the deep drawing process. The mechanical properties were evaluated with the tension tests. It is presented the aluminum alloys designation, followed by applying heat treatments and the designation of tempers. The manufacture of aluminum beverage cans is described step by step, in general terms. The main objective is to analyze how different cans background geometries have great influence on the dome reversal. To be able to achieve the goal it was necessary to use cans of different manufacturers, which were used in buckle tests to obtain the reversal pressures, tensile tests and geometric analysis. Finally empirical equations were obtained correlating these variables, and it was observed that the conformation of reforming change significantly it's behavior

Estudo do efeito Bauschinger em tubos de aço API 5l x70 aplicados no transporte de petróleo e gás

Despite the growing concern in seeking more sustainable energy sources, oil demand is likely to grow in coming years. To keep up with this growth, the oil industry has increasingly invested in innovation and efficiency. Knowing that, new technologies have been developed to explore deeper waters, without giving up the best practices in worldwide operational safety. The use of rigid pipelines in deepwater offshore facilities is increasing quickly and because of this, the ways of storing and launching pipe have been studied and perfected. In this paper the Bauschinger effect on API 5L X70 steel was analyzed proving that there was a reduction in yield strength when an effort was applied in a previous direction, then an effort was then applied in the opposite direction. To observe this phenomenon, the tensile test was conducted to determine the mechanical properties of the base metal, such as yield stress, tensile strength, elasticity and maximum tensile, so then compare it with the results obtained in the Bauschinger Effect Test. The analysis results showed that the steel had high resistance, with good plastic deformation capacity without failing, well-defined yield point, showing itself appropriate for the operation of oil and gas pipes

Effect of cold-working process on corrosion behavior of copper

The microstructure, microhardness, texture and corrosion resistance of cold-swaged and cold-wiredrawn copper rods were evaluated. Elongated grains along the deformation direction were observed for both materials and the width of these grains decreased with the increase of reduction in area. Wiredrawn copper rods have higher microhardness than the swaged rods for the same reduction in area. The copper grains in both cold-worked rods presented a preferential orientation in the [1 1 0] crystallographic direction but this trend was more pronounced for swaged rods. The corrosion resistance of wiredrawn copper rods investigated in H(2)SO(4) solutions was lower than that of swaged rods, and for both deformed materials the corrosion resistance decreased with the deformation degree.

Three-Dimensional Finite Element Analysis of Stress Distribution on Different Bony Ridges With Different Lengths of Morse Taper Implants and Prosthesis Dimensions

This finite element analysis (FEA) compared stress distribution on different bony ridges rehabilitated with different lengths of morse taper implants, varying dimensions of metal-ceramic crowns to maintain the occlusal alignment. Three-dimensional FE models were designed representing a posterior left side segment of the mandible: group control, 3 implants of 11 mm length; group 1, implants of 13 mm, 11 mm and 5 mm length; group 2, 1 implant of 11 mm and 2 implants of 5 mm length; and group 3, 3 implants of 5 mm length. The abutments heights were 3.5 mm for 13- and 11-mm implants (regular), and 0.8 mm for 5-mm implants (short). Evaluation was performed on Ansys software, oblique loads of 365N for molars and 200N for premolars. There was 50% higher stress on cortical bone for the short implants than regular implants. There was 80% higher stress on trabecular bone for the short implants than regular implants. There was higher stress concentration on the bone region of the short implants neck. However, these implants were capable of dissipating the stress to the bones, given the applied loads, but achieving near the threshold between elastic and plastic deformation to the trabecular bone. Distal implants and/or with biggest occlusal table generated greatest stress regions on the surrounding bone. It was concluded that patients requiring short implants associated with increased proportions implant prostheses need careful evaluation and occlusal adjustment, as a possible overload in these short implants, and even in regular ones, can generate stress beyond the physiological threshold of the surrounding bone, compromising the whole system.

A system for classification of time-series data from industrial non-destructive device

This work proposes a system for classification of industrial steel pieces by means of magnetic nondestructive device. The proposed classification system presents two main stages, online system stage and off-line system stage. In online stage, the system classifies inputs and saves misclassification information in order to perform posterior analyses. In the off-line optimization stage, the topology of a Probabilistic Neural Network is optimized by a Feature Selection algorithm combined with the Probabilistic Neural Network to increase the classification rate. The proposed Feature Selection algorithm searches for the signal spectrogram by combining three basic elements: a Sequential Forward Selection algorithm, a Feature Cluster Grow algorithm with classification rate gradient analysis and a Sequential Backward Selection. Also, a trash-data recycling algorithm is proposed to obtain the optimal feedback samples selected from the misclassified ones.

Duktile Gesteinsdeformation durch zeitabhängige Kataklase

In Gesteinen, die bei schwach- bis mittelgradiger Metamorphose deformiert wurden, sind Mikrostrukturen, wie z.B. undulöse Auslöschung, Subkörner und kristallographische Regelungen, typisch. Sie werden i.a. als das Resultat eines kristallplastischen Deformationsprozesses interpretiert. Das häufige Auftreten dieser Strukturen führte zu der Annahme, daß kristallplastische Deformationsprozesse zu den dominierenden duktilen Deformationsmechanismen während der Erdkrustendeformation gehören.Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Experimenten, bei denen die zeitabhängige kata-klastische Deformation polykristalliner, kompaktierter Aggregatproben des sehr gut löslichen, elastisch/spröden Salzes Natriumchlorat (NaClO3) untersucht wurde. Dieses Salz wurde als Analogmaterial gesteinsbildender Minerale wie Quarz und Feldspat ausgewählt. Es wurde nun untersucht, ob und in welcher Weise spröde Deformationsmechanismen in Anwesenheit von Wasser scheinbar kristall-plastische Mikrostrukturen hervorrufen können.Aus den Versuchen ergibt sich nun die Folgerung, daß scheinbar kristallplastisch erzeugte Mikrostrukturen wie Subkörner auch durch spröde zeitunabhängige Risse und subkritische (langsame) Kataklase entstehen können. Diese Erkenntnisse sind wichtig für das rheologische Verhalten der Erdkruste und somit auch für Modellierungen der Erdkrustendeformation. Ihre Betrachtung und Übertragung auf die Deformationsstrukturen der natürlich deformierten kontinentalen, oberkrustalen Gesteine der Erde würde die Interpretation der Mikrostrukturen in diesen Bereichen stark ändern. Dies hätte eine wesentliche Änderung auf den Verlauf der Gesteinsfestigkeitskurven in den Spannungsprofilen der Erdoberkruste zur Folge.
