Lecturers and their student from Production Eng. Dep. gain a patent
Prof. Dr. Sami Ibrahim Jaafar & Prof. Dr. Sami Abu Al-Noon Ajeel from Metallurgy branch in Production Eng. & Metallurgy at UOT and their PhD student Zaman A. Abdul-Wahab gained a patent about (Design and manufacture of a device for measuring fatigue rates). The patent granted by the Central Agency for Standardization and Quality Control / Ministry of Planning, in 16/8/2022.
The idea of the new device is based on measuring fatigue rates with measuring the relation between the number of cycles under constant induced stress and time instead of finding the relation between the stress and the number of cycles in the old devices and finding the fatigue limit automatically through programming for the relation as above. The device also records the failure stress with fatigue and the device allows using different corrosive chemical solutions. This device is useful for parts that are under constant stress and exposed to corrosive or corrosive media.
