Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT The work reported in this thesis is an investigation of the potential for employing non­ steady-state constitutive relations to describe the inelastic deformation properties of rock forming minerals. Attempts to determine generally applicable constitutive equations for inelastic deformation are complicated by the severe path dependence of the deformation response and by the wide range of mechanisms by which that deformation is accomplished. In the geological literature it has been normal practice to circumvent these problems by approximating the deformation as occurring at steady-state. This presents difficulties for the description of deformation by inherently transient mechanisms, for the description of small strain deformation, and for the reliability of extrapolating laboratory mechanical properties to geological deformation conditions. In contrast, in the materials science literature several systems of inelastic constitutive equations which do not make the steady-state approximation have been proposed. One of the oldest and most widely applied of these i.e. that due to Hart and coworkers, was chosen for investigation here to determine its potential for geological applications. To be successful any deformation constitutive equation must satisfy three criteria. Firstly it must provide an adequate description of the material behaviour, secondly it must be analytically / numerically integrable for deformation modelling purposes, and thirdly it must contain material parameters which can be evaluated from the results of deformation experiments. In the first half of this thesis the descriptive capacity and integrability of Hart’s equations are investigated by attempting to provide a comprehensive description of inelastic deformation from the perspective offered by Hart’s analysis. Hart bracketed from consideration several aspects of inelastic deformation which are of considerable geological importance i.e. in particular the influence of nominally deformation independent recovery processes (active at high temperatures), of solute impurities, of finely dispersed inclusions and of grain-size. Procedures for identifying the effect of these factors on the results of deformation experiments, and possible strategies for extending the analysis to accommodate them are outlined. The second half of the thesis describes an experimental programme designed to apply Hart’s description to the inelastic deformation of Carrara marble at 200 MPa confining pressure in the temperature range 120 to 700°C. The primary aim of die experimental programme was to determine whether die material parameters in Hart’s description can be determined with sufficient accuracy at elevated confining pressures (given the technical limitations on the quality of the data obtained from such tests) for the approach to be of interest for the characterization of geological materials. From die results of several hundred experiments it is found that those material parameters can be evaluated sufficiendy accurately. Furthermore, the proposed strategy for extending Hart’s analysis to high temperatures is shown to have considerable potential. In so doing the first description of the inelastic deformation properties of calcite at temperatures below 400°C is presented, and an experimental programme is outlined which can be applied to materials of even greater geological significance. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The work reported in this thesis and presently ongoing, has had a long gestation period. The aim has always been to work towards a description of inelastic deformation which is above all comprehensive, but yet which is also practical in the sense that the material parameters in it can be readily evaluated through experiments conducted at high confining pressures. The fact that it has been possible to work towards such a general goal, is to a great measure due to the outstanding nature of the courses that I have been able to take in my university career. Of particular importance has been the advanced igneous / metamorphic and structural geology third year option in my undergraduate degree at Imperial College, London. It was the awesome content of this course combined with the possibility of doing varied projects all of sufficient length to allow some quality thinking time, which has proved so valuable. My thanks extend to all involved but particularly to Ernie Rutter, Kate Brodie, Paul Suddaby, Bob Thompson and Jack Nolan. A further two years at Harvard University under the auspices of Rick O’Connell, provided die mathematical literacy and a certain rigour of thinking without which much of the work presented here would never have been imagined. The experimental work reported here has been carried out in the Rock Deformation Laboratory which was at Imperial College, London but which moved to Manchester University in July 1989. The work has involved considerable attention to experimental detail and much of this has been made possible by the lab experimental officer, Rob Holloway. It is not just his intimate knowledge of the apparatus that has been important, but also the extremely high quality of his work, for it is this more than anything which has raised the quality of the mechanical data obtained beyond even my most optimistic expectations and allowed me to draw the conclusions that I have. This combined with the fertile source of experimental and interpretative possibilities provided by Ernie Rutter has made the experimental work at times positively exciting. Thanks are also due to my contemporary John Bloomfield. The excellence of his own experimental results on the two-phase flow problem, has been matched only by his generosity in involving me in their interpretation. The paper that we have written together has served as an inspiration for the long task of writing up the PhD. Above all I thank my supervisors Ernie Rutter and Stan Murrell. I acknowledge with a great deal of gratitude their patience and faith in allowing me to pursue my own enquiries for what must have seemed interminable lengths of time. In particular this must have involved considerable sacrifice to Emie as I worked on material which was only indirectly relevant to my role as his research assistant on his project on the deformation properties of ultra-fine grained •materials. Without this freedom, this PhD would certainly never have been completed. 4 CONTENTS Abstract 2 Acknowledgements 3 Contents 4 1.

HUSSEIN1, XUEYUAN NIE2 & DEREK O. NORTHWOOD2 1Natural Sciences Division, Higher Colleges of Technology, United Arab Emirates 2Department of Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering, University of Windsor, Canada ABSTRACT Oxide coatings were produced on an 1100 aluminum alloy using a plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process in an alkali-silicate electrolyte. Three different current modes were investigated, namely DC, unipolar and bipolar. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was used to characterize the plasma in terms of the plasma electron concentration and temperature. SEM and EDS were used to characterize the surface morphology and the cross-sectional structure of the coatings. Potentiodynamic polarization corrosion testing was performed in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution for both uncoated and coated samples. Plasma electron temperatures were in the range of 4,500 K to 10,000 K. The plasma characteristics, including sparking, have been related to the surface morphology of the coating. The coating morphology, microstructure and corrosion resistance varied with current mode. A bipolar current mode produced a higher quality (surface morphology, compactness and corrosion resistance) coating than either a DC or unipolar mode. Keywords: PEO coatings, process parameters, plasma characteristics, soft sparking, coating quality, corrosion. 1 INTRODUCTION Aluminum and its alloys are important structural materials in the automotive, aerospace and transportation industries [1], [2]. In order to improve surface properties, such as wear and corrosion resistance, various surface treatments have been employed including electrochemical treatments, chemical treatments and coatings [3], [4].

The objective of the present work is to evaluate the tensile properties of FSW butt joint. In this work, three process parameters such as spindle speed, welding speed and plunge depth were considered for friction stir welding .As it is difficult to perform number of experiments to find out the level combinations which yield good mechanical properties like tensile strength, TaguchiL9 orthogonal array is used to reduce the number of experiment. The material is bought and are cut into specific material and polished. They are then welded based on the different experiment obtained from Taguchi method. After welding is done the metals are cut as per the specific standard. The results are then analyzed using Taguchi method Keywords: Aluminum Alloys, Axial Force, Friction-Stir Welding, Microstructure, Tensile Strength 1. Introduction Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was invented at The Welding Institute (TWI) of the United Kingdom (Cambridge) in 1991 as a solid state joining technique and was initially applied to Aluminum Alloys (Dawes C and Thomas W, TWI Bull, 1995; Thomas W M, etal., 1991).

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The influence of temperature of oxalic acid on the formation of well-ordered porous anodic alumina on Al-0.5 wt% Mn alloyswas studied. Porous anodic alumina has been produced on Al-0.5 wt% Mn substrate by single-step anodising at 50 V in 0.5 M oxalic acid ∘ ∘ at temperature ranged from 5 Cto25 C for 60 minutes. The steady-state current density increased accordingly with the temperature ∘ of oxalic acid. Hexagonal pore arrangement was formed on porous anodic alumina that was formed in oxalic acid of 5, 10 and 15 C ∘ while disordered porous anodic alumina was formed in oxalic acid of 20 and 25 C. The temperature of oxalic acid did not affect the pore diameter and interpore distance of porous anodic alumina. Both rate of increase of thickness and oxide mass increased steadily with increasing temperature of oxalic acid, but the current efficiency decreased as the temperature of oxalic acid increased due to enhanced oxide dissolution from pore wall.
