flow forming
1Flow forming — is a metal forming technique in which a disk or tube of metal is formed over a mandrel by a roller using tremendous pressure. The roller shears the metal, forcing it against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the final product. [… …
2Flow banding — is a geological term to describe bands or layers that can sometimes be seen in rock that formed from the substance molten rock or magma. Flow banding is caused by friction of the viscous magma which is in contact with a solid rock interface,… …
3Flow measurement — is the quantification of bulk fluid movement. Flow can be measured in a variety of ways. Positive displacement flow meters acumulate a fixed volume of fluid and then count the number of times the volume is filled to measure flow. Other flow… …
4Shear forming — Shear forming, also referred as shear spinning, is different from conventional metal spinning in that in this latter the area of the final component is approximately equal to that of the flat sheet metal blank and little or no reduction in the… …
5Spray forming — Spray forming, also known as spray casting, spray deposition[1] and in situ compaction,[2] is a method of casting near net shape metal components with homogeneous microstructures via the deposition of semi solid sprayed droplets onto a shaped… …
6Ceramic forming techniques — are ways of forming ceramic shapes. This can be used to make everyday tableware from teapots, to engineering ceramics such as computer parts. Methods for forming powders of ceramic raw materials into complex shapes are desirable in many areas of… …
7Electromagnetic forming — A pinched aluminium can, produced from a pulsed magnetic field created by rapidly discharging 2 kilojoules from a high voltage capacitor bank into a 3 turn coil of heavy gauge wire. Electromagnetic forming (EM forming or magneforming) is a type… …
8Sidoarjo mud flow — The Sidoarjo mud flow or Lapindo mud, also informally abbreviated as Lusi , a contraction of Lumpur Sidoarjo ( lumpur is the Indonesian word for mud), is a since May 2006 ongoing eruption of gas and mud in the subdistrict of Porong, Sidoarjo in… …
9Pore forming toxins — (PFTs) are protein toxins, typically, (but not exclusively) produced by bacteria, such as C.perfringens and S.aureus . They are frequently cytotoxic (i.e., they kill cells) as they create unregulated pores in the membrane of targeted cells.Types… …
10Blood flow — is the continuous running of blood in the cardiovascular system. The human body is made up of several processes all carrying out various functions. We have the gastrointestinal system which aids the digestion and the absorption of food. We also… …
