MMET 206 Lab Report No.1 / Lab No.8 Introduction to Standards / Slip Casting Oda Kristine Borgstroem Section #503 09/07/2022
Introduction / Purpose: In this lab we are being introduced to standards. We are learning the importance of standards and why we have standard. The two standards being discussed in this lab is ISO (International Organization for standardization) and ASTM (American Society for Testing and materials). In this lab we also learn how to access and read both ISO and ASTM standards. In this lab we were also introduced to lab 8- slip casting. We are making a ceramic cup out of clay. Ceramic materials are non-metallic materials made of covalent and ionic bonds. This lab will include learning how to the slip casting method and other items can be manufactured using this method. This lab also contains reviews of the ceramic materials properties. Approach / Method: We use standards every day to test advanced materials or manufacture household appliances. The reason why we have standards is to ensure reliability, safety, and promotion of technology. The procedure for accessing the ASTM standards is referred to Appendix 1 in the lab manual. For accessing the ASTM standards, you go to library.tamu.edu and click on the databases icon. Then in the search box you type ASTM standards and click the search icon, and then a new database search will appear. Click on the ASTM compass and then you will need to log in with your NET ID. After you have logged in, you will use the search box to search for desired standard. Once you have your desired standard, select the latest version, and click the download PDF button. To save it to your computer click on the save button top right corner. We also started on lab 8 in this lab. In this lab we are learning about slip casting and how we can use this process to manufacture other items as well. For part A of the lab, we are assigned a ceramic cup of clay and mold. First, we take out the clay cup out of the mold, then we stared to trim, cut, and smoothen the edged and excess parts that came out of the mold. After I am satisfied with the cups shape and trim, I put it up for drying. This was Part B. We only did Part A and B for this lab. The rest of the steps will be finished in later labs. Data / Results: 1.
The corresponding ASTM standard for test method for Tensile Properties of Plastics is: ASTM D638-22 Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Plastics
2.
The corresponding ASTM standard for test method for determining the Izod Pendulum Impact Resistance of Plastics is: ASTM D256-10(2018)
Standards test method for determining the Izod Pendulum Impact Resistance of Plastics. 3.
Printouts from the first pages of the standards mentioned above can be found at the last two pages of the report.
4.
A standard topic of my interest would be Standard Practice for Steel Castings, Welding, Qualifications of Procedures and Personnel. The standard number is ASTM A488/A488M-18e2
5.
The reason why the topic in question 4 is important is because the processes in this standard required the right equipment and can be dangerous if not done correctly. The standard explains how you can use these processes in a safely manner. It also contains which metals and measurements to use which is important for the manufacturing to be successful. One thing I learned from this standard is that it contains many ways to test different materials. Four tests are used in the qualification procedure, Tension test –
measure the strength of groove-weld joints, Bend test
–
check the degree of soundness and ductility of groove-weld joints, Charpy impact test –
determine the impact of strength of weld metal deposited in groove-weld joints, and Radiographic test –
may be used to prove the ability of operators and welders to make sound welds.

For my assigment, I was asked to design a electric motorbike that has a peformance equal to Honda CBR1000 Fireblade which has a petrol engine. A part of the the assignment is to calculate " An estimate of maximum Power your new motor will need to generate to match the Honda’s performance." I can make the assumption, apart from changing the motor, everything else is going to stay the same so the fairing,the rider and etc they're gonna be the same for the two bikes. So can you please tell me how I can calculate that which information would I need ?

Question 2
You are a biomedical engineer working for a small orthopaedic firm that fabricates rectangular shaped fracture
fixation plates from titanium alloy (model = "Ti Fix-It") materials. A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates
implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial
weight bearing activities.
Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to
verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into
solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending
test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the
yield stress for the…

Steam at T1 = 320 °C flows in a cast iron pipe (k= 80 W/m. °C) whose inner and outer diameters are
5 cm = 0.05 m and D₂ = 5.5 cm = 0.055 m, respectively. The pipe is covered with 3-cm-thick glass wool
insulation with k = 0.05 W/m. °C. Heat is lost to surroundings at T2 = 5 °C by natural convection and
radiation, with a combined heat transfer coefficient of h₂ = 18 W/m². °C. Taking the heat transfer coefficient
inside the pipe to be h₁ = 60 W/m². °C, determine the temperature drops across the pipe and the insulation.
The determination is based on a unit length of the pipe (L = 1 m).
Assumptions
1. Heat transfer is one-dimensional since there is no indication of any change with time.
2.
Heat transfer is one-dimensional since there is thermal symmetry about the centreline and no
variation in the axial direction.
3. Thermal conductivities are constant.
4. The thermal contact resistant at the interface is…

Part 2
Set up a spreadsheet solution to this problem. This will require that you derive one
formula to express the relationship between the friction coefficient, the spring constant,
and the spring compression; and a second formula to find the cost of using different slide
and spring types. Set up your spreadsheet as shown below. You can fill in the
"Acceptable?" column manually, rather than using a formula. Turn in a copy of your
spreadsheet/Matlab work

Nondestructive evaluation: Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) describes methodsthat quantitatively characterize materials, tissues, and structures by noninvasivemeans such as X-ray computed tomography, ultrasonics, and acoustic emission.Recently, NDE was used to detect defects in steel castings. (JOM, May 2005.)Assume that the probability that NDE detects a “hit” (i.e., predicts a defect in a steelcasting) when, in fact, a defect exists is .97. (This is often called the probability ofdetection.) Also assume that the probability that NDE detects a “hit” when, in fact,no defect exists is .005. (This is called the probability of a false call.) Past experiencehas shown that a defect occurs once in every 100 steel castings. If NDE detects a“hit” for a particular steel casting, what is the probability that an actual defectexists?
