Application of flux cored arc welding (fcaw) without pre-heating for heavy structures in ship building fabrication & construction of heavy offshore structural steels
Abstract: In fusion welding processes, the reason often given to explain the need for preheating, controlling the inter pass temperature (in multi-pass welds), and post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) is to reduce the risk of residual stresses and it can be removed by heating weldment in the heat affected zone (HAZ). Cold cracking is a hydrogen embrittlement phenomenon, often referred to as hydrogen induced cracking or HAZ cracking. During the construction and …

Optimization of gas sensitivity of CuO/carbon composites with carbon particles synthesized from acacia auriculiformis branches
Abstract: Carbon particles fabricated from the core of acacia tree branches were utilized to synthesize CuO/carbon composite films. The gas sensing properties of these films grown on glass substrates using the doctor blade method were measured in 1000 ppm of methanol vapor at the room temperature. All the films were annealed at 75 0C for 1 hour in air. The structure, the optical band gap and the surface morphology of the …

Minimization of distortion during Gas Metal Arc welding process used for hydraulic shearing machine pressure plate square
Abstract: The Gas Metal Arc Welding process is widely used in many appliances because of its versatility. The change of shape and dimensions that occur after welding is known as distortion that leads to undesirable results. And to overcome this, it requires reducing the distortion within the limits. A large number of resources are used recently for reworking the weld. But it causes higher cost of production and delay for completing …

Influence of Blending Technique on Surface Free Energy of Modified Asphalt Cement
Abstract: AbstractThe processing technique of modified asphalt cement in the laboratory is adopted by heating the asphalt cement in an oven to the required mixing temperature; then the additive is added and mixed for a target mixing time. It was felt that such technique allows more volatiles to evaporate and required high mixing temperature. In this work, asphalt cement of 44 penetration grade was gained from Dora refinery, south west of …

Frictional properties of thermally processed electroless nickel coatings
Abstract: Electroless plating was used to deposit the nickel (Ni) coatings on the carbon steel substrate, both with and without incorporated cubic boron nitride (c-BN) nanoparticles. Coatings were put through tests under both heat-treated and as-deposited conditions. In addition to measuring hardness and roughness, the coating structure was characterized. Under dry and water lubricated contact circumstances, the friction characteristics of bronze, used as the counter-body material, were investigated. coefficients of friction …

Impact of Fracture in Geometrical, Material, and Load Rate Characteristics on J-Integral
Abstract: The present study investigates the influence of load rate, geometrical parameters, and material properties on the J-integral behavior of AA2050-T84 aluminum-lithium alloy using three-dimensional elastic–plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) analysis. Finite element simulations were carried out using the ABAQUS software to evaluate crack driving forces in compact tension (C(T)) specimens under various mechanical and thermal conditions. The study focuses on the combined effects of strain rate, temperature-dependent strain hardening, specimen thickness …

Study of Vehicular Pollution during Odd-Even Days in Delhi
Abstract: The air pollution levels in Delhi are quite high and situation is worsening with continuous increase in number of vehicles in the city, ultimately affecting the health of residents of Delhi. To control the emissions due to vehicles, the government of Delhi, in January 2016 implemented odd-even scheme on Delhi roads for 15 days, i.e. from 1st to 15th January 2016. As per this scheme, on odd days, only vehicles …

Thermo-Fluid Characterization of Corrugated U-Tube Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger with Polymer Composite Tube Wall: A Combined CFD and Experimental Investigation
Abstract: Shell-and-tube heat exchangers built with metallic tubes work well thermally, but corrosion problems, extra weight, and the inability to adjust the wall’s thermal properties through material choice remain genuine engineering headaches, particularly for corrosive or weight-critical applications. Over the past few years there has been a fair amount of interest in replacing metal tubes with polymer composite alternatives, since blending thermally conductive fillers — graphite nanoplatelets, boron nitride platelets and …

Development and Performance Analysis of Pyramid Shaped Novel Solar Water Heater
Abstract: Solar water heating is an environmentally clean technology that utilizes solar energy as a renewable energy source for heating water. Several publications indicate that the interest in residential solar heating using flat-plate solar collectors remains high and current. The optimal tilt angle for solar collectors is estimated to be around 40°, resulting in energy savings, solar fraction, and collector efficiency of 1284 kWh, 29.6%, and 37.9%, respectively, for the entire …
