Mechanical Properties and Microstructural Characterization of Aged Nickel-based Alloy 625 Weld Metal

The aim of this work was to evaluate the different phases formed during solidification and after thermal aging of the as-welded 625 nickel-based alloy, as well as the influence of microstructural changes on the mechanical properties. The experiments addressed aging temperatures of 650 and 950 A degrees C for 10, 100, and 200 hours. The samples were analyzed by electron microscopy, microanalysis, and X-ray diffraction in order to identify the secondary phases. Mechanical tests such as hardness, microhardness, and Charpy-V impact test were performed. Nondestructive ultrasonic inspection was also conducted to correlate the acquired signals with mechanical and microstructural properties. The results show that the alloy under study experienced microstructural changes when aged at 650 A degrees C. The aging was responsible by the dissolution of the Laves phase formed during the solidification and the appearance of gamma aEuro(3) phase within interdendritic region and fine carbides along the solidification grain boundaries. However, when it was aged at 950 A degrees C, the Laves phase was continuously dissolved and the excess Nb caused the precipitation of the delta-phase (Ni3Nb), which was intensified at 10 hours of aging, with subsequent dissolution for longer periods such as 200 hours. Even when subjected to significant microstructural changes, the mechanical properties, especially toughness, were not sensitive to the dissolution and/or precipitation of the secondary phases

PROFESSOR E PROFESSOR DE MATEMÁTICA: DAS INFORMAÇÕES QUE SE TEM ACERCA DA FORMAÇÃO QUE SE ESPERA

O presente artigo faz um levantamento da bibliografia disponível acerca da formação de professores em cursos de licenciatura, iniciando com um tratamento hermenêutico ao termo "formação", passando pela atual situação dos docentes no estado de São Paulo. Caracteriza a constituição das instituições formadoras e levanta aspectos convergentes em relação ao tratamento do tema na literatura. Finalmente são feitas considerações específicas sobre a formação dos professores em cursos de Licenciatura em Matemática.<br>This paper makes a review of the literature on teacher training, begining with hermeneutical remarks on the word "formation". It discusses the actual context of teaching in the State of São Paulo, focusing the constitution of training programmes in universities, and bring some convergent features about this theme available in the literature. Finally, this work focuses the training of Mathematics teachers
