  Evaluation of Hardness, Toughness and Oblique Compression Characteristics of Cement Reinforced Polymeric Composite as Gear Material

  By D. Bandopadhya, J. Sardar

  Abstract: A distinct type composite material, viz. cement reinforced polymeric composite material has been designed and developed and is successfully implemented for fabrication of a low cost, durable, non-metallic group spur gear. This work addresses the experimental evaluation of toughness, hardness and failure characteristics under oblique compressive load and in turn determines the performance effectiveness of the composite as gear material. Few compositions of cement fillers are chosen along with the …

  Design and Development of a Mobile Robot for Material Handling

  By B. Bharat, B. S. Kiran, D. Bandopadhya

  Abstract: A semi-autonomous mobile robot has been designed and developed for regular shaped material handling application. The robot has in-built platform with three revolute joint arms supported by wheeled locomotion. Acrylic polymer sheets are used and three wheeler mobile platforms with various linkages have been fabricated and assembled. Forward kinematic model has been derived after constituting the D-H parameters of the manipulator, and the end-effector position is shown in the work …
