Development and Mechanical Characterization of Polymer based Bio Composite Filaments for FDM Applications
Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM) is an advanced fabrication process capable of producing complex and intricate components to meet diverse industrial and customer demands. For small-scale producers and researchers, FDM is the most straightforward, affordable, and easily accessible of the several AM processes. The majority of conventional polymer feedstocks used in FDM lack sufficient mechanical strength and thermal stability, which limits their use in load-bearing or structural components. This effort aims to …

Development of a Durable Superhydrophobic EP/PDMS Coating Reinforced with Micro-CaCO₃ and Nano-ZnO for Enhanced Corrosion Protection and Multifunctional Performance on Carbon Steel
Abstract: Balancing exceptional multifunctional performance with mechanical robustness in micro-nano composite films remains a significant challenge for practical applications. In this work, a superhydrophobic coating reinforced with micro-CaCO₃ and nano-ZnO particles was fabricated through a versatile single-step brushing method. The optimized EP/PDMS@micro-CaCO₃/nano-ZnO coating achieved a water contact angle (WCA) of 173.54° ± 2.53° and a sliding angle (SA) of 1.50° ± 1.12°. Owing to its carefully engineered micro-nano hierarchical structure, the …

Hardware Implementation of Configurable Multi Image Fusion
Abstract: Multifocus images make it difficult to describe a scene accurately. Hence, the fusion of two or more images forms a good solution in order to obtain a new image containing more appropriate description of the scene than any of the input images. This paper presents a method of image fusion which uses stationary wavelet transform and fuzzy logic. By overcoming the disadvantages of discrete wavelet transform such as downsampling and …
