Heat treatment changes the structure of the cobalt binder phase and the properties of the WC-Co hardmetals. The higher the cobalt content in the alloy is, the more effective the heat treatment is. The present work has found that the transformation of α-Co to ε-Co can be depressed by quenching the specimens in oil from 1000℃ and hence the transverse rupture strength of these specimens can be increased. During tempering the quenched specimens, new precipitated phases which have dispersion hardening effect on the cobalt binder phase have been observed

1. Calculate the force at the base of a continental block that has a uniform thickness of 25km, length of1000km, width of500km, and density of2.70. What is the stress on the bottom of the block?

Using sand moulds for step-shape casting tests and different silicon percentage of nodular cast iron it was possible to separate structural variations produced during freezing from those occurring at Ac1 transformation temperature. The results show that an increase in silicon content leading to different variation in the matrix structure> leads to a changing mechanical properties of nodular cast irons. Tensile strength and elongation of obtained as-cast nodular cast iron with the composition of 3.9%C, 3.2%Si, 0.5%Mn are maximum of about 524.5N/mm2 and 19.8% accordingly. In the same nodular cast iron, but only with 0.1% Mn the silicon addition first increases after decreases elongation, impact toughness and hardness. But tensile strength changes to the opposite side

Introduction One of the merits of the notion of sequential equilibrium is the emphasis on out-of- equilibrium beliefs-that is, on beliefs (about past and future play)at information sets that should not be reached if given equilibrium is played. The key insight of extensive-form analysis is that out-of-equilibrium beliefs deter

Globalization defined 1. The manifestations of globalization include the spatial reorganization of production, the interpenetration of industries across borders, the spread of financial markets, the diffusion of identical consumer goods to distant countries, massive transfers of population within the South as well as from the South and the East to the West, resultant conflicts between immigrant and established communities in formerly tight-knit neighborhoods, and an emerging worldwide

5.1 Digital Processing of Continuous-Time Signals Digital processing of a continuous-time signal involves the following basic steps: (1) Conversion of the continuous-time signal into discrete-time signal, ()Processing of the discrete-time signal, (3) Conversion of the processed discrete- time signal back into a continuous-time signal
