Abstract:
Heat treatable aluminium alloy AA2219 is widely used for aerospace applications, welded through gas tungsten and gas metal arc welding processes. Welds of AA2219 fabricated using a fusion welding process suffers from poor joint properties or welding defects due to melting and re-solidification. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process and hence free from any solidification related defects. However, FSW also results in defects which are not related to solidification but due to improper process parameter selection. One of the important process parameters, i.e., tool tilt angl

Abstract:
Porosity has been frequently observed in solidified, deep penetration pulsed laser welds. Porosity is detrimental to weld quality. Our previous study shows that porosity formation in laser welding is associated with the weld pool dynamics, keyhole collapse, and solidification processes. The objective of this paper is to use mathematical models to systematically investigate the transport phenomena leading to the formation of porosity and to find possible solutions to reduce or eliminate porosity formation in laser welding. The results indicate that the formation of porosity in pulsed laser weld

Freezing of a phase-change medium in a sealed, rotating cylindrical capsule was studied experimentally. The axis of rotation was either colinear with the axis of the capsule or perpendicular to the axis of the capsule, with corresponding maximum centrifugal forces of about 2g and 4 1/2g. The role of rotation differed depending on whether the capsule was fully or partially filled with liquid at the onest of freezing. For the fully filled capsule, rotation-related effects occurred only when the liquid was initially superheated relative to the fusion temperature. Rotation, acting via the Coriolis

Abstract:
Recently, it was demonstrated that grain refinement in undercooled Cu30Ni70 is brought about by a remelting of those initially formed dendrites (termed novel dendrites) which are unstable against melting. Also, it was found that in the same transition regime, there is a sharp drop in the specific volume of the undercooled specimens. Before entering into the transition regime, the novel dendrites found in an undercooled specimen are arranged in a regular pattern and the microstructures consist of large dendrites. Voids are found mainly at the dendritic spacings of the large dendrites. On the ot

These effects hinder component inspection and lead to extensive rework operations and component scrap. Surface scale is a region of colouration observed on the external surface of cast components. It has been shown to occur in the solid-state and to result from the differential thermal contraction between the mould and metal, driving separation during the casting process. The regions of the casting that separate from the mould are exposed to the casting atmosphere, resulting in the fo

Abstract:
In order to analyse the process of solidification of metals and alloys critically, it is most pertinent to understand the different modes of nucleation and the uneven rates of growth throughout the melt. It is also important to take a note of the constraints in the growth process that definitely influence the crystal structure and the structure related properties of the casting. The freezing pattern of the liquid melt decides the feeding of the mould which is instrumental in producing a complete and compact casting. For pure metals and even in case of alloys with a narrow freezing range a well defined solid–liquid macro-interface exists. Here feeding of the solidifying casting is the easiest, by the common lowering of the liquid metal surface in the mould. However, in many instances, a well defined interface is not witnessed. The solid–liquid interface could be discrete and not continuous. Here process of feeding the solidification sites that witness considerable shrinkages, may become complicated. On grounds of above it is implied, the process of solidification constitutes an important aspects in the production of a defect free casting.

The COVID-19 pandemic is the first to unfold in the highly digitalized society of the 21st century and is therefore the first pandemic to benefit from and be threatened by a thriving real-time digital information ecosystem. For this reason, the response to the infodemic required development of a public health social listening taxonomy, a structure that can simplify the chaotic information ecosystem to enable an adaptable monitoring infrastructure that detects signals of fertile ground for misinformation and guides trusted sources of verified information to fill in information voids in a timely manner. A weekly analysis of public online conversations since 23 March 2020 has enabled the quantification of running shifts of public interest in public health-related topics concerning the pandemic and has demonstrated the frequent resumption of information voids relevant for public health interventions and risk communication in an emergency response setting.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the issue of narrative and experience from the perspective of ancient images, and with a focus on sculpture, a medium which does not seem particularly appropriate for pictorial narrative. As a first step, it discusses this evident lack of congruence between pictorial narrative and sculpture, and show ways in which narrative can, nevertheless, function in sculpture. For this purpose, it introduces a general distinction between two kinds of image-related ‘presence’ with reference to the case of the Knidian Aphrodite. This distinction then serves as a hermeneutical tool in the discussion of the chapter’s main categorical focus, namely the incomplete copies of sculptural groups. The analysis of this phenomenon of the Imperial Era focuses on strategies of involving the viewer in the pictorial narrative and thus reinforcing the immersive power of sculpture. Finally, it discusses the intentional creation of voids within the image, as observed in incomplete copies, in the larger context of the visual culture of the Imperial Era, notably through a parallel with the theatrical medium of pantomime.

Abstract:
This text is an on-going study to provide current information regarding developing underrepresented student populations through STEM specific Charter schools to fulfill pipeline shortages. Current findings show that African Americans are underrepresented in high paying Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields, especially in cybersecurity. The U.S. pipeline of minority students studying STEM falls short in producing the next generation of cybersecurity professionals; thus, a salient need exists to design, pilot, and test a program to grow the minority student pipeline in the cybersecurity field. The charter school movement is one of the fastest growing education reforms with the ability to make a dramatic impact in the U.S. and internationally. Because charter schools often organize around a mission, theme, or curricular and enjoy freedoms, in organizational structure, mission, and academic program, with all held to high standards, this text proposes cybersecurity charter schools to fill technology voids. This organizational structure, mission, and academic programming, will enable students to become immersed in hands-on, real world applications allowing for experiential learning, which can develop students with cybersecurity expertise, technical knowledge, and skills, and competencies needed to take and pass cybersecurity and information security related certification assessments.

Abstract:
This paper presents solutions to a one-dimensional solid-liquid phase change problem using the integral method for a semi-infinite material that generates internal heat. The analysis assumed a quadratic temperature profile and a constant temperature boundary condition on the exposed surface. We derived a differential equation for the solidification thickness as a function of the internal heat generation (IHG) and the Stefan number, which includes the temperature of the boundary. Plots of the numerical solutions for various values of the IHG and Stefan number show the time-dependant behavior of

Abstract:
Immediately after completion airfield pavements begin a gradual deterioration that is attribute to several factors. One of the major elements contribute to airfield pavement deterioration is exposure to the environment (freezingthawing and de-icing salts). Air-voids microstructure in cement-based materials is an important feature related to the freeze-thaw durability of these materials since all the adverse influences are result of potentially harmful ionic fluids and aggressive gas transport through the concrete and the transport properties strongly depend on the morphology of the pores insid

Abstract:
The main objectives of this project were to review the available balanced-mix design (BMD) methodologies, understand the I-FIT and Hamburg Wheel Tracking Test (HWTT) test methods using INDOT asphalt mixtures, and to explore the application of these tests to both a BMD approach and as performance-related Quality Control (QC) and Quality Acceptance (QA) methods. Two QA mixture specimen types, plant-mixed laboratory-compacted (PMLC) and plant-mixed field-compacted (PMFC) were used in the determination of cracking and rutting parameters.
