  2. Metal spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_spinning

    Behind the finished vase are the spinning tools used to shape the metal. Metal spinning, also known as spin forming or spinning or metal turning most commonly, is a metalworking process by which a disc or tube of metal is rotated at high speed and formed into an axially symmetric part. [1] Spinning can be performed by hand or by a CNC lathe.

  3. Melt spinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melt_spinning

    Melt spinning is a metal forming technique that is typically used to form thin ribbons of metal or alloys with a particular atomic structure. [ 1 ] Some important commercial applications of melt-spun metals include high-efficiency transformers ( Amorphous metal transformer ), sensory devices, telecommunications equipment, and power electronics.

  4. Potts model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potts_model

    For example, for the standard ferromagnetic Potts model in , a phase transition exists for all real values , [7] with the critical point at = ⁡ (+). The phase transition is continuous (second order) for 1 ≤ q ≤ 4 {\displaystyle 1\leq q\leq 4} [ 8 ] and discontinuous (first order) for q > 4 {\displaystyle q>4} .

  5. Centrifugal casting (industrial) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_casting...

    The technique is known in the glass industry as "spinning". The centrifugal force pushes the molten glass against the mold wall, where it solidifies. The cooling process often takes between 16 and 72 hours depending on the impurities or volume of material. Typical products made using this process are television tubes and missile nose cones.

  6. Tippe top - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tippe_top

    The stem may be used as a handle to pick up the top, and is also used to spin the top into motion. When a tippe top is spun at a high angular velocity, its stem slowly tilts downwards more and more until it suddenly lifts the body of the spinning top off the ground, with the stem now pointing downward. Eventually, as the top's spinning rate ...

  7. Aluminium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium

    Aluminium (or aluminum in North American English) is a chemical element; it has symbol Al and atomic number 13. Aluminium has a density lower than that of other common metals, about one-third that of steel. It has a great affinity towards oxygen, forming a protective layer of oxide on the surface when exposed to air.

  8. Spinel group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinel_group

    An example of an inverse spinel is Fe 3 O 4, if the Fe 2+ (A 2+) ions are d 6 high-spin and the Fe 3+ (B 3+) ions are d 5 high-spin. In addition, intermediate cases exist where the cation distribution can be described as (A 1− x B x )[A x ⁄ 2 B 1− x ⁄ 2 ] 2 O 4 , where parentheses () and brackets [] are used to denote tetrahedral and ...

  9. Aluminium–silicon alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–silicon_alloys

    Aluminum-silicon phase diagram. Aluminum forms a eutectic with silicon, which is at 577 °C, with a Si content of 12.5% [7] or 12.6%. [8] Up to 1.65% Si can be dissolved in aluminum at this temperature. However, the solubility decreases rapidly with temperature. At 500 °C it is still 0.8% Si, at 400 °C 0.3% Si and at 250 °C only 0.05% Si.
