Variation reduction of a closed-loop precision ceramic micromachining process
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
This report details the investigation of the micromachining of a TiC.A1203 ceramic using a closed-loop lapping process. Currently the micromachining process laps a ceramic bar with only a priori flatness adjustment. Bar ...
Grain refinement in steel castings
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1960)
Heat balances of furnaces using insulating refractories
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1940)
DC magnetron reactive sputtering of low stress AlN piezoelectric thin films for MEMS application
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) often incorporate piezoelectric thin films to actuate and detect motion of mechanical structures. Aluminum nitride is advantageous for MEMS use because it can be deposited at low ...
A study of fretting fatigue in aircraft components
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
This thesis presents theoretical, computational, and experimental approaches to the problem of fretting fatigue in materials systems relevant to aircraft components. The basic contact mechanics for fretting fatigue in a ...
Interfacial partitioning during solidification.
