Study of Shielded Gases for MIG Welding
Abstract: Protecting shielding gases are inert or semi-inert gasses that are regularly utilized in few welding forms, mostly in gas metal arc welding and gas tungsten arc welding (GMAW and GTAW, more prevalently known as MIG and TIG, respectively). Their purpose is to shield the weld region from oxygen, and water vapour. Contingent upon the materials being welded, these air gases can diminish the quality of the weld or make the …

Parametric Optimization of CNC Wire Cut EDM for Oil Harden Non-Shrinking Steel: A Comparative Study
Abstract: There has been a rapid growth in the development of harder and difficult to machine metals and newly developed alloys. Conventional machining methods are not suitable and uneconomical for such materials, thus development starts for newer concepts in metal machining. It thus plays a major role in the machining of dies, tools, etc., made of tungsten carbide, hard steel, alloys used in the aeronautics industry. It is a great concern …

Temperature Rise within the Pulp Chamber During Curing Resin based Composite By LED and QTH Light Curing Units: An In vitro Study
Abstract: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the change in temperature within the pulp space during curing of composite resins using light emitting diode (LED) and quartz tungsten halogen curing units (QTH) under varying remaining dentin thickness. 60 human mandibular molars were taken and distal root of each sample was resected and the thermocouple probe was placed in the roof of the pulp space. The root was immersed in a …

Fatigue Study of Friction Stir Welded and TIG Welded AA 6061 Alloy Similar Joints
Abstract: In this study, Al-Mg-Si alloy plates in 4 mm thickness that are particularly used for aerospace and automotive industries were welded using Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding and Friction Stir Welding (FSW) methods as similar joints with one side pass with parameters of varying tool rotation, weld speed and 2.3 degree tool tilt angle. Tensile tests results showed high yield stress values for FSW joints. Micro Vickers hardness test gave …

Experimental Analysis and Optimization of Pulse TIG Welding Parameters for Dissimilar Aluminum Alloys
Abstract: Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding is highly regarded as the primary welding method, especially for challenging metals like aluminum. Pulsed-current TIG welding has been specifically developed for welding aluminum alloys. Composite weld joints of aluminum alloys AA5052 and AA6063 find extensive use in diverse sectors such as automotive and marine applications, where significant mechanical properties and corrosion resistance are required. It is crucial to carefully select the process parameters to …

Recent Advances in Crystal Defect Engineering of Semiconductor Photocatalysts for Sustainable Environmental and Energy Applications
Abstract: Semiconductor photocatalysis has emerged as one of the most promising green technologies for addressing environmental pollution and global energy challenges through solar energy utilization. Nevertheless, the practical application of conventional semiconductor photocatalysts is often limited by their narrow visible-light absorption, rapid recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs, insufficient active sites, and poor charge-transfer efficiency. Defect engineering has recently attracted significant attention as an effective strategy to overcome these limitations by deliberately …
