The role of polymer phase on rigidity percolation of ABS−spherical nickel microparticles composites
Percolation and rigidity transitions are very important phenomena in random heterogeneous microstructures, as various physical properties change abruptly at some critical volume fractions of one phase. The concepts of ...
A Fundamental Investigation Of Discrete Liquid, Gas And Fines Flow In A Random Packed Bed Along With Applications
The discontinuous nature of liquid flow in a random packed bed is observed in many chemical engineering and metallurgical applications like blast furnace and heap leaching. So, to model the liquid flow in these systems, ...
Study of gas-fine flow in a packed bed with an application to the ironmaking blast furnace
The iron and steelmaking industry uses coal as the primary reducing agent. The carbon that is the major component of coal is finally released into the environment as carbon dioxide. One of the effective ways to reduce the ...
Effect of processing on texture and microstructure in Aluminium-Lithium alloys and its consequences on mechanical properties
Lightweight Aluminium -Lithium based alloys have high potential for use in aerospace structural components. However, large anisotropy in mechanical properties restricts the use of these alloys. The alloy AA2195 (Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Ag-Zr) ...
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 ...
Structure-Property Correlation in Binary Immiscible Polymer Blends Compatibilized by Mutually Miscible Homopolymer and Carbonaceous Nanoparticles
The thesis systematically studies the various morphology, mechanical properties, crystallization kinetics and compatibilization effects of homopolymers, carbonaceous nanoparticles such as multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), ...
Development of wrought Mg-Li based alloys with improved strength and ductility
A comprehensive investigation has been undertaken to develop cold rolled Mg-Li based alloys with tensile properties superior to the existing commercial or experimental Mg-Li based alloys. In this endeavor, melting and ...
