Development of a Novel Analytical Framework for Investigating Non-Symmetric Deformation Behavior in Strip Rolling
Abstract: In recent years, the asymmetrical rolling process has attracted considerable research attention due to its ability to induce non-uniform deformation characteristics within metallic workpieces. In this context, the present study introduces a novel analytical framework for asymmetrical cold rolling based on an enhanced slab method, specifically designed to overcome the inherent limitations of existing analytical models when applied to a wide range of asymmetric rolling conditions. A newly developed mathematical …

Design and Development of Fiber Sandwiched Composite Materials for the Improvement of Mechanical Properties
Abstract: This research paper presents the development and mechanical characterization of fiber sandwiched composite materials (FSCM) to address the increasing demand for high-strength, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant materials in advanced engineering sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and transportation industries. Traditional homogeneous materials such as metals, ceramics, and polymers often fail to provide a balanced combination of properties like high tensile strength, low density, toughness, abrasion resistance, and impact resistance needed for modern …

Design and Development of a Triboelectric Sensor for a Generic Counting Application
Abstract: In today’s consumer-oriented market, researchers are increasingly focusing on harvesting energy from ambient and renewable sources to enable sustainable power generation and reduce dependency on conventional energy resources such as batteries and fossil-fuel-based electricity. The rapid growth of portable electronics, wireless sensor networks, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices has created a significant demand for low-power, long-life, and maintenance-free energy solutions. In many practical situations, frequent battery replacement is difficult, …

Effect of Thermal Conditions on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of AA5083 Processed by Equal Channel Angular Pressing
Abstract: A commercial AA5083 with an initial grain size of 210 μm was given an ultrafine-grained structure using the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) technique under die design as patented. The identical sample underwent two successful passes through the die at 473 K, with each passage causing the sample to rotate 90° along its own longitudinal axis. After just one pressing, the microstructure was comparatively homogeneous. It was made up of …

Enhancement of Horizontal Jet Impingement Heat Transfer Analysis on Vertical Flat Plate
Abstract: This research investigates the heat transfer characteristics and heat flux distribution associated with parallel jet impingement on a vertical flat plate. A comprehensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis is carried out and systematically validated against available experimental data to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the numerical model. The jet length is maintained constant at 12 mm, while the jet-to-plate separation distance is varied at 6, 12, 18, and 24 …
