Cousin Love: A Tale of Innocence and Heartbreak

Cousin Love: A Tale of Innocence and Heartbreak Stories of love often weave through the fabric of family, creating bonds that are both beautiful and complex. This narrative explores the intricate relationship between cousins, revealing the joys and sorrows that come with young love. Set against the backdrop of a hot summer night, it delves into the emotions of two cousins, Zarina and Harris, whose lives intertwine in unexpected ways. The Setting: A Summer Night The story begins on a sultry summer night, punctuated by the sudden onset of rain. As the sky darkens and thunder rumbles, the atmosphere shifts from warmth to a cool, refreshing drizzle. Family members scramble to find comfort in their respective rooms, while Zarina, the protagonist, finds herself lost in thought. She reflects on her desire to escape the heat and her longing for companionship. Zarina shares a close bond with her cousin Harris, who is slightly older, and this summer is unlike any other. Their fri...

AIRCRAFT MATERIALS - FERROUS

   


 Any alloy or metal containing iron as its main constituent is called a ferrous metal. in aircraft construction The most common ferrous metal  is steel which is an alloy of iron with a controlled amount of carbon added
.IRON :Iron is one of the most common elements in the Earth's crustor universe. It comprises approximately 5% compared with aluminums at 8%. naturally Iron is never found  in its metallic state, but as iron ores which only contain in the range of 25% to 60% iron .Iron are mined in open-cast or open-pit mines. Iron has a strong affinity for oxygen.Iron is a chemical element that is adequately soft, malleable and ductile in its pure form. It is silvery-white in colour and absolutely heavy, having a density of 7870 kgm-3.  Unfortunately, it combines well with oxygen, producing iron oxide, which is most commonly known as rust. Iron usually has other added  materials to improve its properties.The first smelt from the raw ore is poured into troughs (which are said to resemble piglets suckling on a sow) and the iron is referred to as ‘pig iron’.when re_melted the pig iron  then  its give cast irons
.STEEL
Usually with a few impurities, Steel is essentially an alloy of iron and less than 2.5% carbon . (In practice, maximum steels do not have more than 1.5% carbon).By refining pig iron ,Steel is produced  (removing other unwanted impurities and excess carbon  ).In aircraft construction,the high-quality steels are used,  usually produced in electric furnaces, which allow better control, than do gas furnaces, when alloying. The carbon electrodes produce an intense arc and the steel, when molten, can have impurities removed or eliminated and measured amounts of alloying materials added
. CLASSIFICATION OF STEELS
The (American) Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has diveded steel alloys with a four-digit numerical index system. As mall extractor get from the SAE classification system is shown in Fig-1, where it can be seen, for example, that one common steel alloy is identified by the designation SAE 1030. The first digit or number identifies it as a Carbon-Steel, while the second digit shows that it is a Plain Carbon-Steel. The last two digits denote the percentage of carbon in the steel (0.30%).It should be noted that the British Standards Institute (BS) has a different's classification system.
