Effect of Pin Profile on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Friction Stir Welded AZ31B Magnesium Alloy
Abstract: Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state welding technique which was developed primarily for joining soft metal alloys. The aim of the present work was to develop a defect free friction stir joint of magnesium AZ31B sheets and to investigate the microstructural and mechanical properties of the weld. Two types of tool pins namely cylindrical and truncated conical pin profiled tools have been used to analyze its effect on …

Effect of Pulse Current Micro Plasma Arc Welding Parameters on Pitting Corrosion Rate of AISI 316Ti Sheets in 3.5 N NaCl Medium
Abstract: Austenitic stainless steel sheets are used for fabrication of components, which require high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance such as metal bellows used in expansion joints in aircraft, aerospace and petroleum industries. When they are exposed to seawater after welding they are subjected to corrosion as there are changes in properties of the base metal after welding. The corrosion rate depends on the chemical composition of the base metal and …

Recovery of Iron Values from Waste Iron Ore Slime
Abstract: Iron ore slime is a waste material generated after beneficiation of iron ores. Due to limited iron ore resources and fast depleting of high-grade iron ore, iron ore producers are emphasizing on recovery of iron values from iron ore slime. Different beneficiation techniques such as hydrocyclone, Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator (WHIMS), Dispersion-flocculation, and Flotation are some options to recover the lost iron value from the waste. In the present …

Recovery of Iron Values from Iron Ore Slimes using Reagents
Abstract: Mining wastes include waste generated during the extraction, beneficiation or processing of minerals like iron ore fines, slimes and tailings. Approximately 10–20% of the raw material is discarded as slimes in to slime ponds/tailing dams. Recovery of iron values from slimes result in economic benefit by utilization of waste as a resource and minimizes the threat to the environment. The iron ore slime is generally considered as waste due to …

Solidification Curve Analysis of Cylindrical Casting by FEM
Abstract: In casting process, molten metal is solidified in mould cavity. Solidification process majorly classify into three different sections: (i) liquefaction (ii) solidify (iii) after solidification. In all three processes, one parameter which is called 'IHTC' (Intermediate Heat Transfer Coefficient), is varies with time. IHTC coefficient depends on shape, size, type of casting etc., so, it is continuously varies with all dependent functions. So, establishment of IHTC value is a very …
