Abstract
Finite element (FE) simulations in conjunction with experimental analysis were carried out to characterize the deformation behavior of an AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel (ASS) during cold pilgering process. The effect of process parameters including feed rate (4 and 8 mm) and turn angle (15, 30 and 60°) on damage build-up were also evaluated. The Johnson-cook model was used to simulate the flow behavior of material. By considering compressive stresses, a new revised Latham-Cockcraft damage was calculated and used to determine the optimum process parameters. It was found that the radial and hoop strains in all friction conditions were compressive, while the axial strains were observed to be tensile. The amount of strain (whether it is compressive or tensile strain) was also higher on the outside of the tube compared to its inside. By considering fatigue cycles of a tube element during the process, the feed rate of 8mm, turn angle of 60° and the lowest coefficient of friction were determined as optimum parameters.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of glycyrol (tri-dentate, GLY) and ethylenediamine (double- dentate clay, en) chelating agents on phase and morphology changes of spinel nanoparticles synthesized by sol-gel method. Characterization of samples was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX). The results showed that both samples synthesized with GLY and en contain cubic spinel phase. The sample synthesized with ethylenediamine has a pyramidal morphology with particle size in the range of 20-25 nm whereas the specimen prepared with glycerol is spherical with particle size in the range of 20-25 nm. Finally, suggested mechanism for morphological changes of spniel nanoparticles was discussed.

Abstract
In this study, mechanically milled (MM) Al-24TiO2-20B2O3 powder in molten Al7075 matrix was used in order to fabricate in-situ TiB2 and Al2O3 reinforcements in Al7075 matrix. Differential thermal analysis (DTA) examination was adopted to find reaction temperature between milled Al, TiO2, and B2O3 powders. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns showed the existence of TiB2 and Al2O3 peaks (750 °C at Ar atmosphere) in MM powder. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) results revealed the uniform distribution of TiO2 and B2O3 particles in the aluminum matrix. 6 wt.% MM powder was added to molten Al7075 at 750 °C. The molten Al7075/TiB2-Al2O3 composite was poured in copper mold. The stir casted composites were hot extruded at 465 °C with extrusion ratio of 6:1 and ram speed of 5 mm/s. The microstructures (optical microscopy and TEM) and mechanical properties (hardness and tensile testing) of samples were evaluated. TEM results showed that in-situ TiB2 nanoparticles were formed. The tensile strength of extruded Al7075/TiB2-Al2O3 composite was reached the value of 496 MPa. This result was around four times greater than that of the as cast Al7075 alloy.
