The die casting process consumes almost twice as much tonnage of aluminum alloys as all other casting processes combined.ĭie casting is especially suited to production of large quantities of relatively small parts. In the United States alone, about 2.5 billion dollars worth of aluminum alloy die castings is produced each year. ![]() Die CastingĪlloys of aluminum are used in die casting more extensively than alloys of any other base metal. Extensive research has been conducted to find ways of reducing such porosity however, it is difficult if not impossible to eliminate completely, and die castings often are lower in strength than low-pressure or gravity-fed permanent mold castings, which are more sound in spite of slower cooling. ![]() However, it should be kept in mind that in die casting, although cooling rates are very high, air tends to be trapped in the casting, which gives rise to appreciable amounts of porosity at the center. When applied to castings, the term quality refers to both degree of soundness (freedom from porosity, cracking, and surface imperfections) and levels of mechanical properties (strength and ductility). Quality factors are also important in the selection of a casting process. Small castings usually are made with metal molds to ensure dimensional accuracy. Because metal molds weigh from 10 to 100 times as much as the castings they are used in producing, most very large cast products are made as sand castings rather than as die or permanent mold castings. For a considerable number of castings, however, dimensions or design features automatically determine the best casting method. In terms of feasibility, many aluminum alloy castings can be produced by any of the available methods. The most important factors for all casting processes are: There are many factors that affect selection of a casting process for producing a specific aluminum alloy part. Other processes such as lost foam, squeeze casting, and hot isostatic pressing are also mentioned. ![]() These processes, in decreasing order of amount of aluminum casting, are: die casting, permanent mold casting, sand casting (green sand and dry sand), plaster casting, investment casting, and continuous casting. Aluminum is one of the few metals that can be cast by all of the processes used in casting metals. ![]()

![]() However, as with the early Texas Instruments units (and others) only prototypes were ever built it was never put into commercial production. It was built with four of Intermetall's hand-made transistors, based upon the 1948 invention of the "Transistor"-germanium point-contact transistor by Herbert Mataré and Heinrich Welker. ![]() A workable all-transistor radio was demonstrated in August 1953 at the Düsseldorf Radio Fair by the German firm Intermetall. Texas Instruments had demonstrated all-transistor AM (amplitude modulation) radios as early as May 25, 1954, but their performance was well below that of equivalent vacuum tube models. There are many claimants to the title of the first company to produce practical transistor radios, often incorrectly attributed to Sony (originally Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering Corporation). The scientific team at Bell Laboratories responsible for the solid-state amplifier included William Shockley, Walter Houser Brattain, and John Bardeen After obtaining patent protection, the company held a news conference on June 30, 1948, at which a prototype transistor radio was demonstrated. Vacuum tubes were also inefficient and fragile compared to transistors and had a limited lifetime.īell Laboratories demonstrated the first transistor on December 23, 1947. ![]() The need for a low voltage high current source to power the filaments of the tubes and high voltage for the anode potential typically required two batteries. Although portable vacuum tube radios were produced, they were typically bulky and heavy. A transistor is a semiconductor device that amplifies and acts as an electronic switch.īackground A seven-transistor Soviet Orljonok radio with the back open, showing parts.īefore the transistor was invented, radios used vacuum tubes. Beginning around 1980, however, cheap AM transistor radios were superseded initially by the boombox and the Sony Walkman, and later on by digitally-based devices with higher audio quality such as portable CD players, personal audio players, MP3 players and (eventually) by smartphones, many of which contain FM radios. The pocket size of transistor radios sparked a change in popular music listening habits, allowing people to listen to music anywhere they went. Billions of transistor radios are estimated to have been sold worldwide between the 1950s and 2012. Transistor radios are still commonly used as car radios. The mass-market success of the smaller and cheaper Sony TR-63, released in 1957, led to the transistor radio becoming the most popular electronic communication device of the 1960s and 1970s. Following the invention of the transistor in 1947-which revolutionized the field of consumer electronics by introducing small but powerful, convenient hand-held devices-the Regency TR-1 was released in 1954 becoming the first commercial transistor radio.

With our help we can make the process easy. Shop taping and finishing tools When should I apply a skim coat?Īpplying a skim coat to a wall is fairly easy to do yourself, but you should first be able to recognize when such a process is warranted. This is often one of the primary steps in a remodel of a new or existing home. The idea is to create a fresh surface to then apply your own touch. Once the skim coat is applied, the surface is then often painted or retextured. It can also be applied in the form of either a single layer to touch up a small area or multiple layers to provide a smooth surface with which to work. It is usually done to repair damage and improve appearance. ![]() Skim coating – also known as a level-five drywall finish – is the process of smoothing over worn or damaged drywall with a thin coat of diluted joint compound in order to improve the look of the surface. POTENTIAL COSTS: $20 to $50 (Depending on what tools you own) Here’s how to tell when it’s time to skim coat your walls and how to go about doing so. Skim coating can be a great way to smooth out or prepare worn or damaged walls for a touchup and is a relatively easy task that even novice drywall workers can add to their arsenal. ![]() ![]() ![]() On the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, she worked with members of both parties to keep the American people safe from foreign threats and crafted bipartisan legislation to assist in securing American elections.

Using Facebook, Twitter and all the rest exposes people to a variety of things that could potentially harm their relationship, including ex-partners, alternative partners they could start a relationship with and romantic rivals who could attempt to steal their current sweethearts. We also found another, more strategic reason that people perform these displays: They’re motivated to protect their relationships from threats that exist on social media. We found that people – especially those who are very satisfied with their relationships – use dyadic displays partly because they see their partner as part of who they are. Our recent survey of 236 romantically involved adult Facebook users supported this idea. People may display their couplehood on social media, then, because doing so accurately represents how they see themselves: as intertwined with their partner. People in close relationships often include their partner in their self-concept – they see their partner as part of themselves. One possible reason, proposed by other scholars, is that these displays accurately represent how many romantically involved people see themselves. Dean Drobot/ Why display couplehood this way? People are more likely to post relationship-relevant information on Facebook on days when they feel more insecure about their partner’s feelings for them than they typically do and on days when they feel more satisfied with their relationship. Whether someone underscores their romantic status online can also change according to how a person is feeling at a given time. In contrast, people who have an avoidant attachment style – who are uncomfortable depending on others and who prioritize maintaining their independence – are unlikely to showcase their couplehood in these ways. People who have an anxious attachment style – who worry about their partner rejecting or abandoning them – are also more likely to use a dyadic profile photo and post a dyadic relationship status on Facebook. The more in love a coupled-up person is, and the more jealousy they report, the more likely they are to post their relationship status publicly on Facebook. People who are very satisfied with or committed to their romantic relationship are more likely to post couple profile photos or represent their relationships on social media in other ways. Seventy percent had a dyadic relationship status posted – such as “In a relationship” or “Married.” And participants mentioned their romantic partner in 15% of their recent Facebook updates.Ĭertain people are more likely to use these dyadic displays than others. ![]() In a recent study that we conducted, 29% of romantically involved Facebook users had a “couple” photo as their current profile picture. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Though their stardom made their wedding headline news, they’ve stayed out of the headlines since, seemingly content to live a quiet, Trekkie life.
