Uses of Nanotechnology in Medical Diagnostic Applications
Abstract: Nanoparticle and nanodevice is a boon for mankind to treat and deal with disease and medical diagnosis respectively. Nanotechnology is formed by the unity of chemistry, engineering, biology and medicine restricted to the nanoscale (about 1–100 nanometer (nm)). For example, early detection of malignant tumors and cancer biomarkers, which is impossible using conventional technologies. In here we will discuss nanosized sensors to identify different pathological parameters, foreign antigen and toxic …

Damage Evolution and Delamination Resistance in Polymer Matrix Functionally Graded Laminates
Abstract: Functionally graded laminates (FGLs) in polymer-matrix systems represent a promising pathway to enhance damage tolerance and delay delamination in advanced structural composites. In this study, we explore the mechanisms of damage initiation, propagation, and delamination resistance in polymer matrix functionally graded laminates (PM-FGLs) through a combined experimental–computational approach. Laminates with linear, exponential, and bio-inspired gradation profiles were fabricated using vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) and additive manufacturing techniques. Comprehensive mechanical …

Experimental Exploration of Crack and Damage Dynamics of Hybrid FRP Nano Composites
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have become essential materials in modern engineering structures because of their excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and adaptability in design. Among different fracture modes, Mode I interlaminar fracture where cracks propagate under tensile opening stresses is one of the most critical forms of damage in layered composites. Since delamination occurs within the matrix-rich regions between plies, improving the matrix properties plays a key role in enhancing …

Interfacial Bonding Efficiency in Jute-Carbon Fiber Polyester Matrix Composites Evaluated Through Short-Beam Shear and Interlaminar Fracture Toughness Testing
Abstract: The natural Fiber–synthetic Fiber hybrid composites are jute–carbon Fiber hybrid in polyester matrix which could be used in semi-structural applications of automotive, construction and marine industry as an eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative of conventional carbon Fiber reinforced polymer. But the hydrophilic nature of jute Fibers and the relatively inert surface of carbon Fiber’s cause weak bonding at the interface of the polyester matrix, which causes premature delamination, poor interlaminar shear …

Numerical and Experimental Investigation on I-type Damage Evolution in Glass Fiber Reinforced Laminates Subjected to Quasi Static Loading
Abstract: Glass fiber reinforced polymer composites has become more popular material used in aerospace and marine structural applications due to their specific strength and anti-corrosion properties. The present work discusses the numerical and experimental investigation on I-type damage evaluation in glass fiber reinforced laminates under quasi-static loading is presented. Three volume fraction of glass and resin (40/60, 50/50 and 60/40) plies were selected for both numerical and experimental damage analysis. The …

LIFE ESTIMATION OF A PRE-CRACKED CRICKET BAT
Abstract: Cricket is a fascinating game that is played in many countries professionally. The cricket bat is equipment which is used to strike the ball. The ball is made up of leather whereas the bat is made of willow wood. The performance and the life of a bat are hampered in presence of a crack as the crack propagates leading to failure. In this paper, a Kashmir willow bat with a …

Influence of wall friction on Active Earth Pressure in Model Test
Abstract: Earth pressure theories occupy a paramount position in the field of geotechnical engineering. The knowledge of active earth pressure under static condition is essential in designing a retaining wall as the damage to such retaining structures may lead to disastrous failure. A retaining wall helps in maintaining the ground surface at different elevations on either side of it. Without such a structure, the soil at higher elevation would tend to …

Identification of Elastic Constants of Polymer based Composites through Vibration Test Data
Abstract: This paper presents sex per mental and analytical methods of determining elastic constants of two different kinds of materials. Elastic constants of unidirectional glass/epoxy laminates and Aluminium from the measured eigenfrequencies has been performed. Traditional ‘strike method’ is adopted for the exciting the structure and response is obtained through accelerometer. Vibration analysis is carried out using frequency response function (FRF) measurement technique to determine natural frequencies and mode shapes. Elastic …

Flexibility Analysis of Refinery Piping System
Abstract: Piping systems in downstream refineries and process plants experience a great thermal strain due to the difference between ambient and operating temperatures of process and utility fluid flowing through them. This thermal growth causes thermal stresses which leads to failure in piping components like flange leakage, deflection in piping, fractures at nozzle juncture and other fatal errors in piping system. Therefore, these piping structures must be flexible enough to support …

Study of Influence of Corrosion and Cracking on Bond Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Member
Abstract: Reinforced concrete, as composite material has occupied special place in the modern construction of different type of structure. Reinforced concrete is inherently durable and near maintenance free construction material. Service life of reinforced concrete structure can be significantly reduced when the corrosion of reinforcing steel is initiated; the product of corrosion expands and occupies greater volume than original volume of steel, eventually causes cracking of concrete. The composite action of …
