Determination of the burning rate of small diameter aluminum wire
… involved with the combustion of 0.020" diameter aluminum in various mixtures of industrial oxygen and nitrogen at a total pressure of one atmosphere. A combustion chamber was constructed similar to that which was utilized in previous investigations involving titanium, zirconium, iron and …

Earth electrode resistance diagnosis and measurements
This thesis investigates the potential of an aluminum wire coated with semiconducting plastic material (AX-PRO) as a viable alternative to copper wire for use in grounding systems, particularly under Icelandic conditions. Copper has traditionally been the preferred material for grounding due to its …

The burning rate of aluminum and magnesium wires in pure oxygen and oxygen-water vapor atmosphere at higher pressures
Aluminum and magnesium wires were burned in 100% oxygen at pressures up to 550 psi. Two test series in moist atmospheres containing up to 25% water vapor were carried out with both metals at constant total pressure and at a constant temperature 0 of 280°F. In order to study these effects on the …

The Constitutive Behavior of Copper at High Strain Rate as Determined by the Free Expansion Ring Test
… tested using the ring expansion technique with aluminum wire and urethane as actuator. Results from the experiments are presented and it can be shown that stress increases with increasing strains. It can also be shown that high stresses are obtained if higher peak velocities are achieved. But it …

Analysis of the nail board experiment to measure the liquid slag depth in steel continuous casting
… surface in the continuous casting of steel. Aluminum wires are often added to measure the liquid slag layer depth as well. This work investigates the accuracy of the nail board test used for measurement of the liquid slag layer depth. In addition, a new methodology for measuring the liquid …

Hierarchical Semiconductor, Metal and Hybrid Nanostructures and the Study of their Light-matter Interactions
… material consisting of an array of silver nanowires (NWs) in a dielectric host has been produced based on the theory of a non-magnetic optical cloak. The required radial array of silver NWs was achieved by electroless deposition of the metal into the channels of a porous alumina structure grown …
