Optimization of Process Parameters of Two Way Abrasive Flow Machining by Grey Relational Analysis Coupled with Principle Component Analysis
Abstract: Now a days as the advancement of technology is increasing rapidly, expectation of human, from industry also increased. To fulfil these expectations new technologies are coming into existence. In this regard unconventional machining processes are playing an important role. Abrasive flow machining is a non-traditional finishing process used for finishing parts with predominantly irregular geometry. In AFM, material removal and surface finish takes place by flowing visco elastic abrasive carrier …

Exploring Abrasive Flow Finishing of 3D Printed Mesoscale Passage
Abstract: 3-D printed parts and components have gained wide applicability which continues to increase day by day. However, due to the very nature of 3-D printing process, i.e. layer additions, outer surfaces are subject to poor finishing. Finishing 3-D printed parts is thus a necessity if they are to be used for prototyping or functional purpose. But, finishing remains a challenge, especially if the part contains passages that lie within and …

Complex-hole Polishing Combining Abrasive Gels and Abrasive Flow Machining
Abstract: Abrasive flow machining (AFM) makes it simple to polish the intricate holes and the curved surfaces of difficult-to-machine geometries because abrasive media may bend flexibly in this process. Although abrasive media predominate in the polishing behavior of the AFM process, the mechanism of the abrasive media is difficult to grasp due to the highly viscous gels; as a result, many finishing tasks require a lot of time to design the …

Multi Response Optimization of Process Parameters of Abrasive Flow Machining for Brass by GRA Based Analysis
Abstract: The abrasive flow machining (AFM) is a recent manufacturing technique that uses the flow of a pressurized abrasive media for removing work piece material. In comparison with hand polishing, AFM is assumed to be a very efficient process, suitable for finishing of vent passage and complex surfaces. Abrasive flow machining (AFM) is a fine finishing process for internal inaccessible cavities or recesses. It employs an abrasives laden semi-solid media which …

The Effect of Dried Green Alga Chlorella sorokiniana MH923013 on Corrosion Protection of Stainless Steel in Saline Media
Abstract: Metals interact with their surroundings to undergo corrosion, which is also defined as surface damage or metal decline in an aggressive setting. The objective of the current study was to assess the ability of the green alga Chlorella sorokiniana MH923013 to prevent corrosion of stainless steel in saline medium. Atomic force macroscopy (AFM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to analyse a dry mass of green algae. Electrochemical …

Polymer-Mediated Electron Transfer in Eco-Friendly P3HT–rGO Nanocomposites for Optoelectronic Applications
Abstract: Conducting polymer–graphene hybrid nanocomposites have emerged as promising materials for next-generation optoelectronic applications owing to their solution processability, tunable interfacial properties, and mechanical flexibility. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of graphene–polymer hybrid systems in enhancing charge transport pathways, exciton dissociation efficiency, and interfacial stability in organic optoelectronic devices. Despite these advantages, a key challenge remains the efficient production of individual graphene sheets through the reduction of graphene oxide using …
