    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Safari, Saeed (Author) ; Ghorbani, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Plasma Electrolytic oxidation has recently been known as a new technology in surface engineering. It is one of the low-cost techniques used for improving corrosion and wear resistance in Al-Mg alloys. The purpose of this study first is to attach aluminum and magnesium alloys safely and without any defects, and then finding the optimum coating condition in connection line to achieve most possible corrosion resistance. For this purpose, first of all optimization of Al-Mg alloys friction stir welding (FSW) condition is required. After required investigations, it was shown that the weld created between Aluminum and Magnesium sheets by the cylindrical pin moving in a rotational speed of 550...

    The influence of the ratio of "rotational speed/traverse speed" (ω/v) on mechanical properties of AZ31 friction stir welds

    , Article International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture ; Volume 46, Issue 15 , 2006 , Pages 1983-1987 ; 08906955 (ISSN) Abbasi Gharacheh, M ; Kokabi, A. H ; Daneshi, G. H ; Shalchi, B ; Sarrafi, R ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    The influence of different parameters such as welding pressure, rotational speed, and traverse speed on the weld properties has been evaluated earlier but there are some important parameters yet to be thoroughly investigated. In this study, an effort has been made to determine the influence of different ratios of rotational speed/traverse speed on mechanical properties of different zones of friction stir welded AZ31 magnesium alloy. Mechanical properties of different zones were determined by a shear punch test. It was found out that increasing the aforementioned ratio leads to a slight decrease in yield and ultimate strength of the stir zone and the transitional zone. It was also observed... 

    Preparation of Composite Coating with ZrO2 Nanoparticles on Mg alloy using AC Plasma Electrolyte Oxidation

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Bahrami, Alireza (Author) ; Ghorbani, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) was implemented to produce a ceramic coating on AZ31 magnesium alloy, using an alternate power source (AC), in a silicate based electrolyte containing zirconia nanoparticles in different concentrations. Prior to adding nanoparticles to electrolyte, working parameters such as current density, frequency and coating duration were examined and studied concerning the equipment and coating conditions. And after reaching the optimized condition, ZrO2 nanoparticles were added to the electrolyte to create composite coatings. To examine the properties of the coatings before and after the creation of composite PEO coatings, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used... 

    Comparison of the Effect of Controlled Annealing on Accumulative Roll Bonded 5083 Aluminum Alloy and AZ31 Magnesium Alloy Sheets

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kalani, Amir Reza (Author) ; Akbarzadeh, Abbas (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Lightweight aluminum and magnesium alloy sheets do not generally possess as much strength as steel sheets and their strength need to be increased by a suitable process such as Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB). One of the most important limitations of ARB is the low ductility and formability of the sheets produced by this process. In the present research conducted on the 5083 aluminum and AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets efforts have beem made to overcome this limitation by heating up the sheets whether during metal forming process as hot deformation or as distinct controlled annealing process subsequent to the deformation, in order to develop the application domain of the sheets. Results... 

    Durability Investigation and Fatigue Life Prediction Modelling for Pre-orroded AZ31 Alloy

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Shams Arjmand, Madjid (Author) ; Adib Nazari, Saeed (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This research explored the corrosion effect of NaCl solution on the surface quality of AZ31 magnesium alloy. Cubic-shaped specimens were immersed in standard 3.5% NaCl solution for 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours. The size of corrosion pits, fatigue crack propagation area, and surface topology were characterized. Fatigue tests were carried out on pre-corroded AZ31 specimens under different stress amplitudes. The correlation between the corrosion time and the virtual crack size was obtained. The virtual crack size is a new parameter that can relate the corrosion to the fatigue life. A new model was proposed to map the surface topology on the virtual crack size of pre-corroded AZ31 magnesium alloy. The... 

    Wire-Based friction stir processing as a novel pathway for solid-state surface alloying of magnesium

    , Article Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A: Physical Metallurgy and Materials Science ; Volume 52, Issue 11 , 2021 , Pages 4737-4741 ; 10735623 (ISSN) Zahiri Sabzevar, M ; Mousavizade, S. M ; Pouranvari, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Wire-based friction stir processing is introduced as a solid-state surface alloying strategy for surface alloying of AZ31 magnesium alloy with aluminum, as a key alloying element in magnesium alloys. This technique enables the formation of a defect-free, grain refined and alloyed surface with the increased volume fraction of Mg-Al second phase, and thus, enhanced surface hardness. This simple technique provides a solid-state surface alloying pathway to improve the surface properties of the metallic materials. © 2021, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society and ASM International

    Abstract
    In this work, the formability of a hybrid material of Interstitial-Free 240 (IF240) steel and AZ31 magnesium alloy as IF240/AZ31/IF240 tri-layered sheets was investigated. For this purpose, the bonding feasibility of the high-formability IF240 steel and low-formability AZ31 sheets was first assessed. Then, the hot formability behavior of the manufactured laminated composite was evaluated. The rolling of the preheated samples established the layer bonding. The bonding strength was determined using the shear punch test. The texture and its effects on the forming behavior were studied using the x-ray Goniometry method. Nakazima dome tests were employed at ambient and elevated temperatures to...
