Abstract: Friction Stir Welding is a solid state welding process in which a non-consumable rotating tool with a specially designed shoulder and pin is used to join the workpieces to be welded. In this work Friction Stir Welding of dissimilar aluminium alloys AA5052 and AA6082 has been investigated. The effect of tool pin profile and welding speed on the hardness of the joints were studied. Dissimilar joints were made on 4 mm thick plates with one side single pass of aHCr tool. Parameters used are constant rotational speed of 727 rpm with varying welding speeds of 0.0875 mm/s and 0.1 mm/s. The different pin profiles used are cylindrical pin profile with straight end and chamfered end. It is found that the maximum hardness was achieved with cylindrical pin profile with straight end at rotational speed of 727 rpm and welding speed of 0.0875 mm/s.From the experimental investigation, it can be concluded that the cylindrical pin profile with chamfered end produced maximum results in terms of tensile strength alone. While the hardness and transverse strength was greater with the cylindrical pin profile with straight end. Also it is found that lower the values of welding speed resulted in maximum hardness and tensile values and with increased values of welding speed resulted in increased transverse strength alone Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: The natural fibre is more utilized for reinforcing polymer composites than using synthetic fibre nowadays. Natural fibres are completely renewable, environmental friendly, high specific strength, non-abrasive, low cost, and bio-degradability. Due to these characteristics, natural fibres have recently become attractive to researchers and scientists as an alternative method for fibres reinforced composites. However, these natural fibres are relatively poor moisture resistance, fibre wetting, and its adhesion to the matrix, which affecting mechanical properties. Then some structural modifications are necessary for improvements. A more efficient way to enhance properties of polymer composites is to produce a hybrid composite, so that their individual characteristics may be transferred to the final composite, originating a material with intermediate properties and with potential. This review paper summarized the history of natural fibres and its applications. Also, this paper focused on different mechanical properties of natural fibres (such as banana, jute and rice straw etc) and its applications which were used to substitute glass fibre.

Abstract: Code 39 is one of the most widely and commonly used barcode type, Wide use of this barcode type makes it portable. This barcode can be encoded and decoded by almost every barcode encoding/decoding equipment. Code 39 can encode all 26 Alphabets of the English language and the numerals which was not possible with the previous barcodes. It is much more secure and is not prone to faulty encoding and decoding,but the disadvantage is its too lengthystrip ,needs more space and has less storage capacity.To reduce this a novelistic idea of using multicolour barcodes can be developed so that large amount of data can be stored within a small space.

Abstract: In this paper, a triband circularly polarized (CP) microstip patch antenna is placed over a metamaterial structure known as Frequency Selective Structure (FSS) at a certain height. The FSS provides improved bandwidth and axial ratio to the triband CP antenna. When FSS with 6*6 square metallic patches are used, we obtain four frequency bands (2.4/5.3/5.8)GHz for WLAN and 3.5GHz WiMAX applications. The FSS structure designed using 6*6 circular patches was simulated to obtain ultra wide band frequency(UWB). The results are analyzed and compared with the result of triband antenna and improvement in bandwidths and axial ratio is observed. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: Steel finds wide range of applications in various industrial sectors. Heat treatment of steel is the most important parameter that affects properties of various grades of steel. Hardening and tempering heat treatment imparts properties of hardness, wear resistance, toughness to different grades of steel such as plain carbon steel, alloy steel, tool steel etc. One of the reason that limits the property enhancement tendency of hardening and tempering is that 100% austenite is not converted into martensite during quenching in hardening process. This results in entrapment of austenite in matrix of martensite at room temperature known as retained austenite. Retained austenite causes significant changes in mechanical properties Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: The main aim of this project is to steer the vehicle according to the requirement during parking. The four wheel steering is more required in critical roads and in desert roads. In this project we implement three steering modes in a four wheelers and these modes can be changed as needed.An eco-friendly vehicle which can steer through 90 degrees, thus reducing the turning radius with low efforts has to be defined. Automotive of present time does not have the ability to steer through 90 degrees. These vehicles can help peoples for parking easily on populated areas. The steering mechanism uses rack and pinion in defined gear ratios with the help of some bevel gears. The rear wheels are mounted in such a way that the power is transmitted even when it is being steered through 90 degrees. Advantages of this system are that it can work in limited space and it reduces the time and effort for steering through 90 degrees thus making the system more flexible. It can be used for other applications such as farm vehicles, trucks, forklifts, heavy vehicles etc. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: In small-scale industries and automobile maintenance shops, there are frequent needs of tightening and loosening of screws, drilling, boring, grinding machine. Huge and complicated designed parts cannot be machined with the help of an ordinary machine and further for every operation separate machine is required, therefore increasing the number of machines and increasing the area for them to be accommodated and hence overall initial cost required is increased. In a single machine all the above specified operation can be carried out, i.e., after drilling, the drill head is removed from the barrel key and the required tools like grinding wheels, boring tool etc., can be attached, and the operation can be performed. By the application of pneumatics, which is operated by an air compressor will give the successive action to operate this machine. By this we can achieve our industrial requirements.

Abstract: In this current scenario, the manufacturing industries are keenly observing and updating the manufacturing process to produce the quality products and improve the productivity with economical benefits (i.e, less cost) and resources. According to that nowadays, to achieve those goals manufacturing industries are mainly concerned about the optimization of machining process parameters (such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut). From various literature surveys it is seen that the material removal rate can be further improved by coated inserts. It can be modelled using regression equations by Minitab software. From this software by giving input parameters the predicted output parameters can be observed. By this, optimized machining parameters can be achievable which will provide better manufacturing process. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: In today’s manufacturing industries, special attention is given to dimensional accuracy, geometric tolerance and surface finish. Machining is the most important category of material removal processes as it offers excellent dimensional tolerances and the best surface quality. There are three principal machining processes namely, turning, drilling, and milling. From various literatures review surveys that the surface roughness can be further improved by coated inserts instead of using uncoated inserts. Surface roughness of machined components has a major impact on their functional performances. The model is expected to predict the surface roughness in terms of cutting parameters like cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. Minimum surface roughness can be achieved by the optimization of the machining parameters on Taguchi’s concept using Artificial Neural Network Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: Laser cutting is an unconventional machining process utilized to cut various types of materials. Surface roughness & kerf width are the two main responses that are affected by the input parameters like laser power,cutting speed & assist gas pressurearranged at three levels during CO2 laser cutting of aluminium. The results show that the roughness decreases with increases in speed and assist gas pressure whereas kerf width decreases with increase in assist gas pressure alone. The present work also includes prediction of roughness & kerf width through feed forward back propagation feed forward artificial neural network. Out of 17 experiments 13 were used for training & 4 were used for testing. The mean squared error is very less and the regression is 0.99519, which indicate a good agreement between predicted & experimental values. So, the developed artificial neural network can be used for predicting roughness and kerf width during CO2 laser cutting of aluminium. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: In machining operations, achieving desired surface quality features of the machined product, is really a challenging job on CNC machine. Because, these quality features are highly correlated and are expected to be influenced directly or indirectly by the direct effect of process parameters. In modern industry the goal is to manufacture low cost, high quality products in short time.Automated and flexible manufacturing systems are employed for that purpose along with CNCmachines that are capable of achieving high accuracy and very low processing time. Surface roughness is a measure of the technological quality of a product and a factor thatgreatly influences manufacturing cost. It describes the geometry of the machined surface andcombined with the surface texture, which is process dependent, can play an important role on theoperational characteristics of the part (e.g. appearance of excessive friction and/or wear). Theachievement of a desirable value is a repetitive and empirical process that can be very timeconsuming. The part must be machined more than once until an acceptable value is obtained.However, the extents of significant influence of the process parameters like speed, feed, and depth of cut are different for different responses. Improve the surface quality of work material by using coated inserts.To reduce the tool wear on milling cutters.To minimize the process steps by Optimize the parameters for quick response of conclusion to introduce tool coatings “Latuma&Pertura” To compare the machinability of Titanium specimen.

Abstract: The industry is moving from current state of automation to robotization, to increase productivity and to deliver uniform quality. The industrial robots of today may not look the least bit like a human being although all the research is directed to provide more and more anthropomorphic and humanlike features and super-human capabilities in these. One type of robot commonly used in industry is a robotic manipulator or simply a robotic arm. It is an open or closed kinematic chain of rigid links interconnected by movable joints. In some configurations, links can be considered to correspond to human anatomy as waist, upper arm and forearm with joint at shoulder and elbow. At end of arm a wrist joint connects an end effector which may be a tool and its fixture or a gripper or any other device to work. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: This report deals with performance analysis of year round air conditioning system with the use of Phase Change Material to increase its Co-efficient of Performance. The idea of phase change materials (PCM) used for the purpose of storing thermal energy is to make use of the latent heat of a phase change, usually between the solid and the liquid state. Since a change of phase involves a large amount of latent heat of energy at small temperature changes, PCMs are used for temperature stabilization and for storing heat with large energy densities in combination with rather small temperature changes. The usage of PCMs is on one hand a question of a high energy storage density, but on the other hand it is very important to be able to charge and discharge the stored energy with a thermal power, that is suitable for the desired application. In the work presented, the analysis on air conditioning system is done with and without the use of Phase change material and their respective co-efficient of performances is calculated. KEYWORDS: air conditioner, phase change material (PCM), latent heat storage, calcium chloride hexahydrate, copper, refrigerant (R22), co-efficient of performance. Download full Lenght Paper...... |

Abstract: Thermal energy storage systems are necessary because the available energy like solar is intermittent whereas the utilization of thermal energy is continuous. The various methods of storing thermal energy are sensible heat storage, latent heat storage and thermo chemical storage, among this methods latent heat storage is preferred. Various materials are available to store thermal energy as latent heat; Paraffin is widely used phase change material (PCM) .This is because paraffin maintains its properties even after thousands of charging and discharging cycles. This only disadvantage with paraffin is that its poor thermal conductivity. Increasing the metal nanoparticles composition in the paraffin increasing the thermal conductivity of the system, however there is a limit for blending the metal Nano particles with the PCM also. This is because; higher the metal Nano particle composition, higher will be the chance of agglomeration, which in turn decrease the thermal conductivity of the composite material. The performance characteristics of the thermal energy storage system are (i) Thermal conductivity of the PCM, (ii) Charging period and (iii) discharging period of thermal energy storage system. In this work, it is proposed to determine the suitable proportion of metal Nano particles that can be blended with paraffin PCM and analysis the performance of thermal energy storage system selected Download full Lenght Paper...... |
