Investigations into Incineration of Sanitary Napkin Waste Using Single Chamber Incinerator
Commercially available disposable sanitary napkins are the most common method of menstrual hygiene management in most urban regions of India (van Eijk, 2016) (Mathiyalagen et al., 2017). It is estimated that in India a ...
Spectral Analysis of Wave Motion in Nonlocal Continuum Theories of Elasticity
Traditionally, in solid mechanics, classical continuum theories of elasticity have been an important
tool in the examinations of behaviour of solids under external loads. However, due to
absence of length scale information ...
Mechanics of Martensitic Phase transformation in shape memory alloys Experiments and modelling
Thermally activated NiTi based Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are of tremendous practical interest as actuators in varied engineering applications owing to its characteristic Martensitic Phase Transformation (MPT). The MPT in ...
Rotational Temperature Measurement in Hypersonic Shock Tunnel using Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy
Atmospheric entry of a spacecraft is considered as one of the critical phases in any planetary mission. Although it lasts only for a few minutes, rapid heating and deceleration can cause severe problems to the spacecraft. ...
Strain Hardening in Extruded Pure Magnesium
There has been a surge in interest in wrought magnesium alloys for structural applications in automotive industry. However, the application of wrought alloys is limited by its poor plasticity, due to its inherent strong ...
A Generalised Modelling of Piezoelectric Composite Shells and Plates using Variational Asymptotic Method
In several fields of engineering, researchers are actively pursuing the possibility to use smart
materials such as piezoelectric composites in order to make the structure smart. Piezoelectric
materials have the capability ...
Exotic eutectic microstructures
Solidification of eutectic systems delivers compelling examples of microstructure formation, which makes the phenomena intriguing to many engineers and scientists. Therefore, eutectic solidification is extensively studied ...
Heat Treatment and Surface Engineering of Selective Laser Melted Ti-6Al-4V for Improved Performance in Biomedical Implants
Metals and alloys are extensively used to prepare a wide variety of biomedical implants. The commonly employed materials are stainless steel (SS), cp-Ti, Ti-6Al-4V, etc., because of their biocompatibility and corrosion ...
Reliability based analysis and design of slopes and tunnels in rock mass
Structures in rock mass such as slopes and tunnels form an important segment in the
infrastructure development of a country. Rock mass consists of intact rock matrix
with numerous discontinuities that can be represented ...
