Comparison of the friction and wear properties of titanium and oxidised titanium in dry sliding against sintered high speed steel HS18-0-1 and agains…
2005
Abstract The paper presents the results of conformal pin-on-disc tribological tests concerning the hard oxidised zone, α-Ti(O), created at the surface of a titanium specimens sliding against the sintered and hardened up to 850 HV30, Grade T1 high speed steel (HS18-0-1) counterspecimens. Comparison with the results obtained for the tests performed against hardened up to 620 HV30 C45 carbon steel counterspecimens has been done. Testing was carried out at room temperature and at unlubricated conditions. After tests the structures and compositions of the worn surfaces and wear debris were a subject of LOM, SEM observations and X-ray microanalyses. In comparison with the baseline—the Ti/T1 HSS c…
Friction and wear properties of titanium and oxidised titanium in dry sliding against hardened C45 steel
2004
Abstract The aim of the paper is to present the results of conformal pin-on-disc tribological tests concerning the hard oxidised zone created in superficial layer of a titanium specimen sliding against the hardened to a hardness of 690 HV carbon C45 steel counterspecimen. Tribological testing was carried out at room temperature and at unlubricated conditions. After tests the structures and chemical compositions of the wear debris and worn surfaces were a subject of SEM and X-ray investigations. In comparison with the baseline the technical quality titanium/C45 steel couple, the wear and lifetime performance of the oxidised titanium/steel C45couple was markedly superior. Dominant wear debris…
Titanate nanotubes: towards a novel and safer nanovector for cardiomyocytes.
2012
Actively contractile cardiomyocyte (CM) monolayer represents an interesting tool to study both cardiac diseases and injuries. However, this model is poorly transfectable with conventional agents. Consequently, there is a need to develop new carriers that could overcome this problem. Titanate nanotubes (TiONts) could be a potential candidate due to possibly higher cell uptake as a direct consequence of their shape. On the basis of this rationale, TiONts were assessed for their cytotoxicity and internalization pathways. Cytotoxicity was assessed for TiONts either functionalized with PEI or unfunctionalized and its spherical counterpart P25 TiO2. No cytotoxic effect was observed under TiONts, …
The Preparation and the Characterisation of some Ternary Titanium Oxide Pkotocatalysts.
1987
TiO 2 catalysts, of moderate surface areas and minimal porosities, containing various nominal quantities of iron have been prepared. E.s.r spectra indicate that Fe 3+ is well dispersed in coprecipitated samples, and in impregnated Tioxide samples, when the iron concentration is

Nonlocal model for a magneto-electro-elastic nanoplate
2013
A mathematical model based on nonlocal third-order shear deformation plate theory has been developed to evaluate the mechanical and electromagnetic behavior of magneto-electro-elastic nanoplates. Two types of magneto-electro-elastic composites have been considered, all of them combination of Barium Titanate sheets, that represents the piezoelectric phase, and Cobalt Ferrite, that is the piezomagnetic component. Setting magneto-electric boundary conditions on each laminate, it has been possible to extrapolate and to analyze free vibrations frequencies for all considered plates, allowing to do objective assessments on what factors influence laminate modes and, especially, how these vary in th…
Numerical simulation of linear fiction welding (LFW) processes
2011
Solid state welding processes are becoming increasingly important due to a large number of advantages related to joining ''unweldable'' materials and in particular light weight alloys. Linear friction welding (LFW) has been used successfully to bond non-axisymmetric components of a range of materials including titanium alloys, steels, aluminum alloys, nickel, copper, and also dissimilar material combinations. The technique is useful in the research of quality of the joints and in reducing costs of components and parts of the aeronautic and automotive industries.LFW involves parts to be welded through the relative reciprocating motion of two components under an axial force. In such process t…
Metallurgical Evolutions in Hot Forging of Dual Phase Titanium Alloys: Numerical Simulation and Experiments
2015
Titanium forging has been encountering a growing interest in the scientific and industrial communities because of the distinct advantages it provides with respect to machining, in terms of both mechanical properties of the product and material waste, thus significantly reducing the Buy to Fly ratio. In the paper, a numerical FE model, based on a tri-coupled approach and able to predict the microstructural evolutions of the workpiece during the process, is developed and set up. Calculated results are compared to experiments for a few industrial case studies. The final phases distribution in the forged parts is experimentally measured and compared to the FE model output finding satisfying ove…
High frequency dielectric relaxation in BaTio3derived materials
1992
Abstract A systematic study of the dielectric relaxation phenomenon has been carried out for ceramics with compositions derived from barium titanate in the frequency and temperature ranges 1 MHz–1 GHz and 250–500 K, respectively. Whatever the composition may be, a minimum of the relaxation frequency and a maximum of the dielectric dispersion appears at each phase transition temperature. The dipole-type relaxation is correlated to coherent displacements of the ions in the octahedron sites ordered either along chains or in 3D-lattice.
Dielectric relaxation of space charges and polarons in ferroelectric perovskites
2001
Abstract In all ferroelectric perovskites, intentionally introduced or “unwanted” point defects do play a role in the dielectric spectra and in the conductivity. Above room temperature, space charge relaxation at the electrodes interfaces are observed. This can be of interest in the context of the nowadays applications of ferroelectric thin films. At liquid helium temperatures much more localised dielectric relaxation occurs. Special emphasis will be brought on SrTiO3 which has received renewed interest at the beginning of the nineties and for which a wealth of reliable experimental data are available. Considering that a gradual freezing of polarized objects is occurring at low temperatures…
