The aim of this study, which was carried out in two main parts, is to investigate the glass forming ability of Fe-based systems. The first part involves the theoretical modeling to cover the requirement of a predictive model to identify the Fe-based alloy families that have high glass forming ability in the frame of atomistic and thermodynamic approach. The second part involves the experimental investigations to prove the results of the conducted theoretical modeling studies. For this purpose, in the first part, theoretical investigations were performed to identify the third alloying elements that will lead to an increase in the glass forming ability on the base of electronic theory of alloys in pseudopotential approximation for selected Fe- based systems, Fe - (B, Zr, Nb, C, W). In the experimental part, in the frame of the theoretical investigation results, one of the theoretically modeled binary system, and the third alloying elements that were predicted to lead an increase in the glass forming ability of the selected binary system, were determined. As a first step, designated compositions were synthesized by using low grade conventional Fe-B alloy as a raw material by using centrifugal casting technique and copper mold casting method. To compare the results, same compositions were also cast from the high purity elements by using the same technique and method. For the characterization of these cast specimens, DSC, XRD, SEM, EDS and metallographic examination techniques were used. Amorphous structure was successfully obtained in the thin sections of the wedge-cast samples for Fe-B-Nb and Fe-B-W ternary systems.

Application of Rock Mass Classification Systems for Future Support Design of the Dim Tunnel Near Alanya
Coşar, Songül; Ünal, Erdal; Department of Mining Engineering (2004)
In this thesis, the results of a number of rock mass classification systems applied to Dim-higway tunnel study area are presented. The tunnel ground was classified according to Rock Mas Rating (RMR), Modified Rock mass Rating (M-RMR), Rock mass quality (Q), Geological Strength Index (GSI) and New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM). Dim Tunnel has a horse-shoe shape, with a diameter of 10 meters and maximum overburden thickness of 70 meters. During studies, the geological and geotechnical characteristics of th...
Modification of magnetic properties of siderite by thermal treatment
Alkaç, Dilek; Atalay, M Ümit; Department of Mining Engineering (2007)
Obtaining high magnetic susceptibility phases from HekimhanDeveci siderite orevia preliminary thermal treatment has been the basic target of the thesis study.Thermal decomposition characteristics of samples, determined bythermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), were referenced in advancement of thestudy. Heat treatment experiments, particularly roasting, were carried out byconventional heating and microwave heating. Results showed th...
Production of heavy-media-quality magnetite concentrate from Kesikköprü iron ore tailings
Güngör, Kazım; Atalay, M Ümit; Department of Mining Engineering (2010)
The aim of this research was to investigate the possibility of the production of a magnetite concentrate which is suitable for preparation of heavy media from iron ore tailings of Güncem Mining Company magnetic separation facility. During the study, three different tailings named as low grade, medium grade and high grade with 5.91 % Fe3O4, 19.06 % Fe3O4 and 37.06 % Fe3O4, respectively, were used. Mineralogical analyses of test samples showed that magnetite and hematite were the major ore minerals while pyri...
Hydrometallurgical processing of lateritic nickel ores
Köse, Caner Hakkı; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2010)
The objective of this thesis study is to recover nickel and cobalt at maximum efficiency from column leach liquor of lateritic nickel ores existing in Gördes region of Manisa by performing various hydrometallurgical methods under the optimum conditions. This column leach solution of nontronite type lateritic nickel ore was initially neutralized and purified from its basic impurities by a two stage iron removal process under the optimum conditions determined experimentally. Then, nickel and cobalt were preci...
Investigations on bulk glass forming ability of titanium based multicomponent alloys
Süer, Sıla; Mekhrabov, Amdulla O.; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2008)
The aim of this study is to investigate the bulk glass forming ability (BGFA) of Ti-based alloy systems. These investigations were carried out in two main parts that are complementary to each other: theoretical and experimental. For theoretical studies, which are based on electronic theory of alloys in pseudopotential approximation, Ti-Zr, Ti-Co and Ti-Cu alloys were chosen as the binary systems. Alloying element additions were performed to each binary for the investigation of the BGFA of multicomponent Ti-...
