Advances in high rotational speed – friction stir welding for naval applications
Thurlby, Nickolas (Wichita State University, 2009-05)Changing operational requirements within the Navy defines the need for lighter, faster ships with increased range and payload. To achieve these requirements the Navy is investing in new hull forms and aluminum alloys for ... -
Design and analysis of modular caliper assembly
Wagh, Nikhil Pratap (2005-12)The following work studies a conceptual design of a disc brake system. Disc brakes offer higher performance braking, simpler design, lighter weight, and better resistance to water interference than drum brakes. The aim of ... -
Design of a two stage epicyclic gearbox in sintered metal gears
Vatkar, Shirish (2007-05) -
Low Z-force Octaspot™ swept friction stir spot welds welding—conventional tool and process development approach
Lam, Tze Jian (Wichita State University, 2010-05)An investigation was conducted to develop low Z-force (normal/forge load) friction stir spot welds (FSSWs) using conventional tooling and process development approaches. Low Z-forces can be achieved by studying the ... -
Mechanical testing and evaluation of high-speed and low-speed friction stir welds
Banwasi, Nitin (2005-12)The potential of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process is easily observed in the creation of defect free welds in almost all of the Aluminum alloys. The success and applicability of the process, however, will depend on ...
