Age hardnening
This document summarizes the process of precipitate hardening or age hardening in an Al-Cu alloy. It involves three steps: 1) solution heat treatment to dissolve soluble phases, 2) quenching to develop supersaturation, and 3) age hardening through precipitation either at room temperature (natural aging) or elevated temperatures (artificial aging). Samples of an Al-4%Cu alloy were solution heat treated and quenched, then aged at different temperatures from 150-230C to test the effect on hardness. Hardness increased with increasing aging temperature, demonstrating successful precipitation hardening.
Thermo Mechanical Treatment
The document discusses the process of thermomechanical treatment (TMT) of steel. It defines TMT as a surface quenching process used to produce steel bars with high strength. The key aspects of TMT are surface quenching to form martensite, self-tempering to refine the microstructure, and final cooling. The mechanical properties of TMT bars depend on factors like the martensite volume fraction, cooling rate, and microstructure of the core.

Example discussion section
The Charpy impact test was used to investigate the impact fracture toughness of steel at different temperatures. The results showed that steel required more energy to fracture at higher temperatures, where it was more ductile, than at lower temperatures where it was more brittle. Specifically, below 0°C the steel underwent a ductile to brittle transition and required less energy to fracture. This trend demonstrates how the impact toughness of steel decreases as temperature decreases below the ductile to brittle transition temperature. While the Charpy test provided a simple way to evaluate fracture energy, there was some variation in repeated measurements likely due to temperature fluctuations in the steel samples during testing.
heat flow.pptx
The document discusses heat flow and temperature distribution during welding. It describes how welding creates a heat affected zone (HAZ) near the weld where high temperatures alter the microstructure and properties of the metal even if it doesn't fully melt. The size of the HAZ depends on factors like heat input and the material's thermal diffusivity, which determines how fast heat is conducted. Within the HAZ, different regions experience different peak temperatures and cooling rates, affecting the material properties. The document also discusses weldability, carbon equivalent values which help determine preheating needs, and their effect on properties.

How nickel base super alloys are fit for sofc applications
Nickel base super alloys have properties that make them suitable for use as interconnectors or gas separators in solid oxide fuel cell stacks. To fulfill these roles, an alloy must have bulk and surface stability against oxidation and corrosion during extensive exposure to fuel cell conditions, be thermally compatible with other stack components, be chemically suitable for neighboring components, have high electrical conductivity on reactive surfaces, and demonstrate mechanical reliability and durability when exposed to cell media. Critical minimum chromium concentrations of 20-25% are needed to develop a protective chromium oxide scale and prevent corrosion, while nickel and iron base alloys require over 18% chromium. Trace elements like cerium, lanthanum and yttrium can also contribute to oxidation and corrosion resistance

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
