Analysis of Hydrodynamic Characteristics of a Squeeze Film in O-Ring Assembly Under the Oscillating Motion
Abstract: In the most of the non-contacting face seals, squeezing occurs in the fluid film between the O-ring surface and the mating surfaces in the gland assembly. Therefore, hydrodynamic characteristics are easily simulated by considering a fluid film between a rubber surface (O-ring surface) and a rigid surface (machined surface). In this paper, effects of surface roughness of rubber block on leakage flow rate and hydrodynamic force developed in fluid film …

Experimental Analysis of Residual Stress, Micro-Hardness and Corrosion Behavior of HVOF Sprayed Composite Coating
Abstract: The utilisation of non-traditional composite coating materials, enhanced lubrication, and surface geometry optimisation have all contributed to the tribological performance. Piston rings are among the most crucial engine parts since friction causes between 40 and 45 percent of all energy loss. Fuel efficiency, power loss, and exhaust pollutants are all strongly impacted by the piston assembly's tribological performance. The present study's primary goal was to develop composite coating by using …

Treating Tinea Capitis with Unani Formulation: A Case Study of 25-year-old Male Patient
Abstract: Tinea Capitis is a superficial fungal infection of scalp, mainly caused by dermatophytes Trichophyton tonsurans and Microsporum canis (highly inflammatory) and Microsporum audouinii are second most common cause. It has two types’ viz. endothrix and ectothrix. Tinea Capitis is also known as Ringworm of the scalp and Tinea tonsurans. In Unani System of Medicine Tinea is known as Qūbā, characterized by burning, itching along with roughness and desquamation over skin …

Thermal and Thermoelectric Generation Using Geothermal Energy Extraction Through Cogeneration System
Abstract: The manuscript has focused on the evaluation of the improvement of energy efficiency in using geothermal energy for heat and electricity generation through additional thermoelectric production to conventional heat transfer processes. The proposed system uses Peltier rings made up of a serial and parallel Peltier cells grouping, as part of the upward and downward ducts that connect the geothermal heat exchanger and the surface heating system. The new system can …

Ringworm Infection in Unani Perspective: A Literary Review
Abstract: There are several skin conditions that affect human beings. Since the most common of skin conditions may have some symptoms that are similar, it becomes more important to understand the differences between them. Skin disorders may vary significantly in symptoms and severity. Qooba (Dermatophytosis) is one such type of type of skin disease. In Unani System of Medicine, it is described as roughness which appears over skin surface. As far …

Development of Aluminium Based Silicon Carbide Particulate Metal Matrix Composite for Cylinder Liner
Abstract: Cylinder liner is used in engine block to give a wear protective surface for piston and piston rings. Friction accounts for a loss of over 30% of the total vehicle power. Over half of that power loss can be attributed to the frictional loss between piston rings and cylinder bores. The best approach for improving power train efficiency is to reduce friction loss and the way for reducing the rolling …

Drinking Water Problems and Possible Alternatives in Coastal Region of Bangladesh: A Case Study
Abstract: Safe drinking water for the coastal areas of Bangladesh has become a big challenge. Arsenic adulteration and salinity intrusion in surface water body has accelerated the scarcity of water in the coastal region. As situation ameliorating and also investment for water-borne diseases is decreasing, it becomes the major threat for a third-world country like Bangladesh. There are lots of alternatives for water supply but there are also a huge number …

Critical Assessment of Parachute Deployment: Stress Analysis Perspectives
Abstract: The goal of the Mars Science Lab (MSL) mission's parachute decelerator system is to deliver the biggest payload on the Martian surface in history. Robust analysis tools are required to estimate loads and stresses in the canopy reinforcement in order to fulfill this challenge.Two finite element codes are used in this study's structural analysis of the MSL parachute system.This study has three goals in mind. Initially, the research assesses how …

Polymer Waste-Derived Activated Carbon from PET for High-Efficiency Supercapacitor Electrodes
Abstract: The exponential increase in plastic waste, particularly Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)—a polymer characterized by its repeating aromatic terephthalate units and ester linkages—has escalated into a global environmental crisis. This study details a low-cost synthesis of porous carbon materials derived from waste PET via pyrolysis followed by chemical activation with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). During pyrolysis, the PET polymer chains undergo thermal degradation, where the aromatic rings in the backbone serve as precursors …

Heavy Fermions to the Scheme from Semimetals
Abstract: This article is a study about heavy Fermions to scope strange and unknown features of scattering accounted to conduction electrons in the metal. Nucleons generated by heavy metal compounds are named heavy fermions. These generate from magnetic impurities that are present in the matter as unusual distribution in particulate forms. Parameter of quasi-crystal lattice instability of these compounds has significance in response to behave as non-Fermi liquids affected under magneto-transport. …

A non-hydrotreated feedstock’s polyaromatic cracking under FCC industrial operating conditions using an equilibrium catalyst
Abstract: Catalytic cracking of non-hydrotreated atmospheric residue’s main polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) in the presence of an equilibrium catalyst was investigated under industrial operating conditions. During the fluid catalytic cracking process, the catalyst that presented the key factor in hydrocarbon cracking (aromatic by hydrogen transfer reaction) quickly deactivated and compromised the process’s performance due to its acid surfaces and pores covered by the polyaromatic species. A deep study of the catalyst behavior …
