Evaluation of Compatibility of Elastomeric Component of Master Cylinder with Brake Fluid
Abstract: Importance of proper functioning of braking system of any automobile is imperative for ensuring safe operation. Master cylinder is a heart of the brake system and rubber seals and cups are its vital parts. Specially processed and designed seals resist leakages and transformation due to temperature changes or reaction with the brake fluid. This paper presents the compatibility study conducted on two different rubber materials, NBR and SBR-EPDM (identified by …

Surface modification of polymeric membranes using plasma treatment: A comprehensive review
Abstract: In the contemporary science era, polymer membranes have a wide range of services. Polymeric membranes have very good bulk properties having potential applications in various processing industries.These membranes can be even modified using various techniques. The surface modifications of membranes to incorporate various hydrophilic functional groups without changing the bulk properties has gained popularity. The surface becomes hydrophilic because new polar functional groups are formed. For instance, after oxygen and …

Acute Toxicity, Morphological Changes and Behavioral Responses Induced by Sodium Perfluorooctanoate in Indian Major Carp Labeo rohita (Ham.)
Abstract: Sodium perfluorooctanoate (NaPFO) is an anthropogenic ubiquitous environmental pollutant mainly used in textile, paper and ink industries, for specialized usage as emulsifiers, firefighting foam, lubricants etc. It finds entry into aquatic ecosystem through effluents from these industries. Static renewal bioassay test was conducted to determine 96 h LC50 of NaPFO on Indian major carp, Labeo rohita. The behavioral and morphological alterations in fingerlings were observed critically during the whole experiment …

Functionally Graded Natural Fibre and SiC-reinforced Polymer Composite: Mechanical Properties
Abstract: Multifunctional materials, also called functionally graded materials (FGMs), are based on natural fibres or fillers and vary in composition and/or microstructure to control functional, structural, or thermal, properties. Functionally graded materials (FGMs) have been created for use in spacecraft, aircraft, and other engineering applications because they can withstand extremely high temperatures. Particle-reinforced FGMs, which make up the majority of FGMs, are made differently depending on their position. The mechanical and …

Pseudo-Static Limit Equilibrium Method for Bearing Capacity of Footing on Slope and Seismic Uplift Capacity of Horizontal Strip Anchor
Abstract: Seismic bearing capacity for a shallow strip footing embedded in a sloping ground is derived along with seismic uplift capacity of horizontal strip anchors. c-ϕ soil medium is used with limit equilibrium method of analysis. A planar failure mechanism has been adopted. The seismic bearing capacity is determined in the form of a single pseudo-static bearing capacity coefficient (Nγe) in association with unit weight, surcharge and cohesion, which becomes more …

Fully Interpenetrating Polymer Network from Natural Rubber and Guar Gum
Abstract: Fully interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) based on natural rubber (NR) and guar gum (GG) was prepared by using glutaraldehyde as a common crosslinking agent. As both the polymers are naturally occurring and the resulting IPN material can be termed as a green polymeric material. The solvent resistance properties of these samples were investigated by equilibrium swelling method using benzene as a solvent. Benzene was used as the penetrant for the …

Comparative Study of various Commercially Available Programs in Slope Stability and Simulation of Dynamic Loading
Abstract: Analysis of slope stability is carried out to identify the most critical failure plane so as to minimize the occurrence of slope failures and landslides. It is always needed to give serious consideration before any construction or development is executed to ensure that the designed slopes remain stable. Slope failure can be determined through appropriate measurement of slope stability. In this study C-programming and GEO4 and Plaxis 2D software have …

Evaluation of Effect of Sugar Cane Bagasse Ash Modified Cold Bituminous Emulsified Mix
Abstract: Initiatives are emerging worldwide to strike an equilibrium between the developments in infrastructure and control of environmental contamination by reusing wastes. About 70 % of the Indian population depends on agriculture, and abundant agricultural waste is generated each year. The use of these wastes in pavement construction provides a suitable solution to some of the ecological concerns and troubles associated with waste management. Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA) is a waste …

The Numerical Calculation of the Behavior of the Gas Bubble, Fixed on the Solid Surface
Abstract: The existing literature data permit only qualitatively to trace the behavior of gas bubble, fixed on the solid surface, with the narrow range of Bond numbers (β). For investigation of the profiles, common surface energy of gas bubbles and equilibrium of forces, which retain bubbles on the solid surface in the fluid, the computer model of numerical calculation of the profile, surface square, volume of the gas bubble, fixed on …
