Modeling for Transmission Loss Prediction of Different Shapes of Acoustic Muffler with an Experimental Analysis
Abstract: Muffler’s noise reduction is generally calculated by transmission loss and insertion loss. Single expansion chamber is generally used as silencing elements in intake and exhaust systems. The main aim of this paper is to study use of FEA (Finite element analysis) as well as experimental methods for various shapes of Mufflers with constant volume for transmission loss measurement. Various shapes are available for muffler like cylindrical, elliptical cylindrical, box with …

Study of Nanoindentation Characteristics of Al/B4C/CNT Composites
Abstract: Nanoindentation characterization is one of the essentialities that are used in current work to measure hardness and elastic moduli properties of Al reinforced with B4C particulates and carbon nano-tube (CNT). The nanoindentation characterization enables measurements of mechanical characteristics on nano scale. The method is very effective to understand the localized variations in mechanical behavior of the composites that are influenced by precipitation of reinforcements. The composites were synthesized en-route powder …

Wear Characterization of Al/B4C/CNT Composites for Different Alloying Composition
Abstract: Wear is a surface phenomenon that occurs predominantly at the surface of the material. It is majorly due to the rubbing action between two surfaces that is attributed to solid state contact. As wear is a material removal phenomena occurring at the outer surfaces, it is indeed very apt to develop materials that have wear resistant characteristics. Henceforth in the current work, it is therefore judicially justified to develop a …
