Pearlitic flake-graphite grey cast irons have long been widely used for the manufacture of diesel-engine combustion-chamber components. Nonetheless, very few pertinent high-temperature data are to be found in published work. The investigation described attempts to enlarge current knowledge on the high-temperature behaviour of grey cast irons in view of requirements highlighted by high thermal ratings. A general consideration of the problem showed that the often quoted Eichelberg material-quality factor is largely irrelevant and an alternative assessment formula is proposed. This is broadly confirmed by a systematic examination of the mechanical and physical properties of 166 plain and alloyed cast irons and a limited number of engine components. Different engine components impose different demands upon the material properties but for economic reasons a single cast-iron melt capable of meeting most of the requirements of all components is needed. It is shown that this situation is best met with an alloyed iron containing 1.3 per cent of copper-nickel and 0.4 per cent of molybdenum. The scatter in properties obtained from production casts was found to be typical for such irons. For components having safety factors of 2 or less, a prerequisite of economic engineering design, the service reliability is crucially dependent upon the scatter of material properties. Thus, there are advantages in reducing this scatter and it is shown that this can be achieved by attention to the cleanliness of the matrix and tight control of the chemistry of the melt. In general, the absolute values of mechanical and physical properties of flake-graphite cast irons appear to be governed mainly by the form and size of the graphite flakes and the chemistry of the matrix (i.e. CEV and alloying additions). Regression analysis of the results permitted the derivation of empirical formulae for the prediction of the iron properties. The general findings are used to suggest possible ways of improving the thermal resistance.

Abstract TYPE CRS MEEHANITE is a group of austenitic cast irons with graphite in nodular form. They provide much higher strength than Type CR Meehanites and have excellent resistance to corrosion, wear and heat. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: CI-56. Producer or source: Meehanite Worldwide Corporation.

The Ap stars are numerous - the photometric systems tool It would be very tedious to review in detail all that which is in the literature concerning the photometry of the Ap stars. In my opinion it is necessary to examine the problem of the photometric properties of the Ap stars by considering first of all the possibility of deriving some physical properties for the Ap stars, or of detecting new ones. My talk today is prepared in this spirit. The classification by means of photoelectric photometric systems is at the present time very well established for many systems, such as UBV, uvbyβ, Vilnius, Geneva and DDO systems. Details and methods of classification can be found in Golay (1974) or in the proceedings of the Albany Colloquium edited by Philip and Hayes (1975).

The bullet-shaped viruses are currently classified together on the basis of similarities in virion morphology and physical properties. Biologically and ecologically the member viruses are extremely diverse. In searching for further bases for making comparisons of these agents, the nature of host cell infection, both in vivo and in cultured cells, has been explored by thin-section electron microscopy.

Although most materials contain more than one phase, and thus are multiphase materials, the definition of composite materials is commonly used to describe those materials containing more than one phase deliberately added to obtain certain desired physical properties. Composite materials are often classified according to their application, i.e. structural composites and electronic composites, but may also be classified according to the type of compounds making up the composite, i.e. metal/ceramic, ceramic/ceramie and metal/semiconductor composites. For structural composites it is also common to refer to the type of structural reinforcement; whisker-reinforced, fiber-reinforced, or particulate reinforced composites [1-4].For all types of composite materials, it is of fundamental importance to understand the relationship between the microstructure and the observed physical properties, and it is therefore vital to properly characterize the microstructure. The interfaces separating the different phases comprising the composite are of particular interest to understand. In structural composites the interface is often the weakest part, where fracture will nucleate, and in electronic composites structural defects at or near the interface will affect the critical electronic properties.
