Effect of cold rolling on bonding tensile of 7075 alloy
The present study reports the effect of cold working on bending and tensile behavior of Brass, Copper, Aluminium. A series of experiments involving cold rolling (58% cold work) have been conducted for those three materials. The Vickers number of hardness for cold rolled specimens can be show very clearly that it has increasing up the number itself likewise the number of thickness reduction which also increasing. Which its number of Vickers can be rated as follow as Aluminium < Copper < Brass ; this means that Brass has the most tensile strength, Aluminium is easily to bend and Copper has the average all capable of these three. It has been shown that, Three materials before cold rolling exhibits excellent bend properties so that, it is capable of being bent cold around a pin under high angle without crack or fracture, due to ductile behavior. Also it can be seen that surface quality of starting materials is better than of cold rolled samples.
To sum up, As Cold rolling is a metalworking process it increases the strength and hardness of metal, such as Brass , Copper and Aluminium in this experiment. A metal sheet or bar is passed through rollers at a controlled weight well under its recrystallization temperature, which is usually at room temperature. Although the cold rolling process increases the metal's strength and hardness it will also decrease its ductility, which will result in a metal that is more prone to cracks and fractures.

    The force applied and the diameter of the diameter of a hardened steel ball is kept constant while four different specimen blocks namely, aluminum, brass, copper and mild steel are penetrated by the indentation steel ball to create different indentations on each of them. The diameters of the indentions allow us to obtain the Brinell Hardness number to predict the hardest and the softest material among them. The experimental data would also allow us to compare the hardness measured with the other published results from other…

    In every reaction, energy is transferred between a system and its environment. A system encompasses the substances that are involved in a reaction, and everything else in the universe other than the system is called the environment. The standard SI unit of energy is Joules (J). Temperature is the level of excitement of the atoms in a substance. In most cases, energy is transferred by heat. Heat is the energy released from a change in temperature. The standard units for heat and temperature are in degrees Celsius or Kelvin (both have the same increment between each degree, the difference is that Celsius is based off…

    Heat treating steels to increase their hardness strength has been a process that has been done for centuries. In addition to this, reasoning was found for why it is uncommon to see heat treatment in materials with low carbon content, such as low carbon steels (1018 steel) and brass. The results of this experiment coincide with what was expected, and no obvious errors in the experiment were found. One factor of this experiment that could be improved is the quality of the micrographs that were produced. To do this, the metallurgical preparation of the material would need to be done in a much more precise and consistent way. The instructions were clearly laid out, but the execution of the instructions varied too much between individual samples, and consequently produced lackluster images for analysis. In the future, some recommendations to improve the quality of the finished surfaces could be to keep fresh abrasive pads on the ECOMET polishing machines, taking extra care when preparing and handling the etching solutions, and observing the surface finish of the material directly after the etching process is…

    Out of the three materials tested, the steel 1045 exhibited the most elastic properties, with it being able to deform elastically for a greater amount of stress than for the other specimens, as indicated by its stress-strain curve as shown in figure 1, and further supported by it having the highest modulus of elasticity of all three specimens, as shown in table 2. The mild steel specimen had the second greatest modulus of elasticity, and the aluminium specimen had the lowest modulus of…

    Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to create an efficient water wheel that would produce a productive time in lifting the cup of nuts and bolts that was attached to the pipe used in rotating out water wheel. The more efficient our wheel was the better the time we would have in lifting our cup. We were then able to observe the work that was needed to turn the axel, the time that is taken to bring the cup of washers to the axel, and the power it took to do all of this. We used our observation, constructing, and testing skills in order to come up with an efficient way to build a water wheel.…

    Specific heat and climate were the primary focus of this lab. Specific heat is defined as “the measure of the ability of a substance to change temperature”. The purpose for carrying out this lab was to determine the specific heat/rates of both soil and water, and then comparing them. Students also were to relate specific heat to climate. Students were to determine which substance expressed a higher specific heat by using the formula, (q=m*Δt*c). Then they were to explain how specific heat and climate are in relation to one another.…

    The experiment observed the mechanical deformation process of different materials by three tests: tensile test, impact test, and fracture-toughness test. The materials evaluated in the tensile test were annealed 1045 steel, cold rolled 1045 steel, 2024-T4 aluminum and cast iron. 2024-T4 aluminum is concluded to be most ductile (25.7 % reduction in area) and cast iron the most brittle (123 MPa). Effects of cold rolling in 1045 steel are apparent, as it has the highest strength among the materials tested (402 MPa yield strength). Impact test measured the impact energy of 1045 steel, 2024 aluminum, polypropylene (PP), and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). This test also observed the effect of temperature on material ductility. The fracture-toughness test was performed on 2024-T4 aluminum to determine a KIC of 35.3 MPam. From the experiment, it was found that the brittle-ductile transition temperature of PP is between 0 0C and room temperature, whereas the transition temperature of 1045 steel is between 25 0C and 100 0C.…

    Land Ice Lab

    We were investigating land and sea ice to see which water holds more or less volume, because we want to see which one is contributing to the ocean levels to rise. We conducted the thermal expansion of water by taking two different vials of water and heating one and leaving one untouched. The melting ice part of the lab was conducted by creating a "continent" in one bowl and another bowl without anything in it. We sat both oceans under a lamp and recorded to rise in water from the melting of the ice. Our results in our groups were: sea ice did not contribute as much of a rise in sea level like land ice did. the warmer water held more volume then the control water. Our claim is that land ice contributes to sea level rise and the warmer the water is, the more volume it has. Some sources of error was at the beginning of experiment one, the hot plate did not heat up fast enough. To improve the lab, you should has turned the hot plate to a higher temperature.…
