High Strain Rate Deformation of Heat-Treated AA2519 Alloy.

This study examined the effects of heat treatment on the microstructure and dynamic deformation characteristics of AA2519 aluminum alloy in T4, T6, and T8 tempers under high strain rates of 1000-4000 s. A Split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) was utilized to characterize the mechanical response, and microstructural analysis was performed to examine the material's microstructure. The findings indicated varied deformation across all three temper conditions.

Joint integrity evaluation of laser beam welded additive manufactured Ti6Al4V sheets.

The feasibility of joining laser metal deposited Ti6Al4V sheets using laser beam welding was investigated in this article. The additive manufactured sheets were joined using a 3 kW CW YLS-2000-TR ytterbium laser system. The mechanical properties and microstructure of the welded additive manufactured parts (AM welds) were compared with those of the wrought sheets welded using the same laser process.

TIG welding of Ti6Al4V alloy: Microstructure, fractography, tensile and microhardness data.

Titanium alloy is widely used in many industries due to its unique weight to strength ratio and high corrosion resistance. A suitable method of joining Titanium and its alloys is using Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding. A significant advantage of TIG welding over other fusion welding is its ability to use non-consumable electrodes.

Synthesis, physico-mechanical and microstructural characterization of Al6063/SiC/PKSA hybrid reinforced composites.

The utilization of agro-residues ash as complementary reinforcing materials continues to gain prominence for metal matrix composite (MMCs) development. A rarely investigated but largely available ash among these agro-residues is the palm kernel shell ash (PKSA). Thus, the present study investigates the influence of PKSA particulates hybridized with SiC on the physico-mechanical properties and microstructure of Al6063 metal composites.

Experimental data on the compressive and flexural strength of lateritic paving tiles compounded with pulverized cow bone.

This article presents the data of the bulk density, compressive strength and flexural strength of lateritic paving tiles compounded with pulverized cow bones (PCB) as reinforcement, the data set are presented in three categories. Category A involves the mixture of laterite and PCB, category B involves the mixture of sharp sand and PCB, lastly, category C involves the mixture of laterite, sharp sand and PCB. The paving tiles were made using the casting method in a 200 × 100 × 60 mm mould, using 20, 15, 10% wt.
