Polymer-Inspired Underwater Friction Stir Welding of Aluminum–Copper Composite Joints
Abstract: The problem of high-performance dissimilar joints and their compatibility with polymer and composite engineering applications is the impetus to the current work. This paper seeks to investigate the possibility of applying the polymer-based composite ideas with underwater friction stir welding (UWFSW) to improve the performance of AA5083 aluminumcopper joints. To achieve this a systematic experimental method was followed by varying the tool rotational speed, traverse speed and tilt angle and …

Evaluation on the Mechanical Strength of TIG Welded 6061Aluminium Alloy Joints
Abstract: Aluminum alloy Al-6061 is extensively used in aerospace, automotive, and marine industries due to its excellent mechanical properties, lightweight nature, and corrosion resistance. However, welding this alloy presents challenges such as porosity, hot cracking, and strength reduction in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, known for its precision and quality, is commonly employed for joining Al-6061. This study investigates the tensile strength of TIG-welded butt joints of …

Impact of Urbanization on Biodiversity Hotspot: A Case of Bhubaneswar City
Abstract: Urbanization has contributed to pollution and generation of waste heat leading to changes in the urban heat balance thereby influencing its microclimate. Urban regions confront heightened heat wave conditions due to urban heat island (UHI) impact, which is a result of anthropogenic effects on both surface and atmospheric temperature patterns relative to the natural environment. The investigation was carried out in a 20-km radius around the city of Bhubaneswar. The …

Optimization of Window Sizes based on Different Climatic Conditions
Abstract: Different climatic conditions have an impact on a building's performance. Climate-related factors will also affect how energy-efficient a structure is. As a result, making comparisons between buildings in various climate zones will produce inappropriate results. It is crucial to understand how much a building's energy performance can vary depending on the climate. By running energy simulation on the typical building, the climatic condition ratio is established for various climate zones …
