One of these Companies is Gulf Ferro Alloys (Sbayek). Background Sabayek is a producer of Ferro Silico-Manganese (FeSiMn)‚ which is one of the Ferro Alloys used in Steel manufacturing. In simple words‚ (FeSiMn) is made by smelting a mixture of mainly Manganese ore‚ quarts‚ energy coal and some additives in big blast electric furnaces. Most

Four Products Case Question 1. Which of the four products are you most optimistic about in terms of likely success? Why? Answer: I really like two ideas presented in the case: Stave Jigsaw Puzzle and Polytrack. Both are dealing with big money and luxury; while one is aimed to please‚ impress and entertain real “big wallets” owners‚ the other seems to be a real innovative breakthrough in equestrian sport. Stave Puzzle attracts me with a perfect match of the target market – rich fine people who

made to simulate the semisolid metal process using finite element simulation software. The following simulations were carried out on Aluminum alloy A356 to determine the effect of initial temperature of the billet on the forging load. The simulations were carried out at different temperatures between the solidus and liquidus temperature range of the alloy. The position of the billet on the bottom die was determined by placing it in different positions and also for various temperatures. The present

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON CORROSION OF CERMETS ALLOY ABSTRACT Tungsten carbides (WC) are widely used as wear resistant components such as seal‚ valves‚ rings‚ nozzle and bearings. But in some processing operations‚ the environment necessarily includes severe corrosion or extremes of temperatures. In this research‚ commercially cobalt tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) and nickel tungsten carbide (WC-9%Ni) was examined in seawater (3.5% salinity) to know the effect of temperature on corrosion for both

Some of the types of these include piezoelectric materials‚ magneto-rheostatic materials‚ electro-rheostatic materials‚ and shape memory alloys piezoelectric‚ Varieties of smart materials already exist‚ and research is being carried out extensively to derive new materials. Applications of various types of smart materials are clearly explained. Some of applications of already existing

I will also be testing shape memory alloy (muscle wire) and a pneumatic system. Muscle wire and pneumatics are a bit more complex. Muscle wire is a thin wire usually made of a nickel-titanium alloy that morphs into a preprogrammed shape when introduced to heat or electricity. The pneumatic system I’m using uses pressurized air to push a piston out of an airtight chamber

SMART MATERIALS 1. Introduction The primary characteristic of a ‘‘smart material’’ is that it has the ability to respond to external stimuli in a technically useful and technically controlled way. The words ‘‘technically useful’’ and ‘‘technically controlled’’ are emphasized since all materials respond to external stimuli of some sort or other (as a simple example‚ all materials respond to temperature by changing their volume)‚ however‚ to be considered a ‘‘smart material’’ the response must

Olander in 1930‚discovered a phenomenon of SME(Shape Memory Effect). In 1958‚researchers Chang & Read demostrated the Shape Memory Effect. In 1962‚ the shape memory properties of Nickel Titanium alloys were discovered at the US Naval Ordnance Laboratories In 1970’s ‚the group of brass (CuZnAl) alloy were discovered which exhibit SME.

Frye has a very complex network of people on whom she is dependent (especially corporate marketing‚ sales-corporate and field operations‚ and technical support service). Given the culture of Quaker Steel and Alloy‚ relationships matter! Frye should have devoted more time and energy to building her relationships and credibility in the company. However‚ Frye’s first attempt to change the salespeople’s call patterns failed. In particular‚ Frye has focused
