Why are surface processes so important?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The reason for surface processes to be important.

Explanation of Solution

Surface processes or commonly termed as surface finishing processes are used to improve the properties of the surface of the manufactured products. Many applications require certain surface properties rather than the bulk properties.

Surface processes includes solidification treatments, heat treatment coatings, deposition surface treatments or electroplating. These process might improve certain surface properties such as corrosion and wear resistance, high temperature resistance, or some electrical properties.

Further, longer service life of the component and its satisfactory performance might require change in surface properties rather than the bulk properties. These changes might be electrical, mechanical, thermal or physical.

using the theorem of three moments, find all the reactions and supports
(An ellipsoidal trapping region for the Lorenz equations) Show that there is a certain ellipsoidal region E of the form rx2 + σy2 + σ(z − 2r)2 ≤ C such that all trajectories of the Lorenz equations eventually enter E and stay in there forever. For a much stiffer challenge, try to obtain the smallest possible value of C with this property.
A) In a factory, an s-type pitot tube was used to calculate the velocity of dry air for a point inside a stack. Calculate the velocity at that point (ft/sec) using following conditions: ● • • Pressure = 30.23 ± 0.01 in Hg (ambient) Pitot tube coefficient = 0.847 ± 0.03 Temperature = 122 ± 0.1 F (stack) Temperature = 71.2 ± 0.1 F (ambient) AP = 0.324 ± 0.008 in H2O (pitot tube) • AP = 0.891 ± 0.002 in H2O (stack) B) Find the dominant error(s) when determining precision for the problem. C) For part A, what is the precision in ft/sec for the velocity?
