Experimental and numerical studies on Mode-I ductile fracture behaviour of Magnesium
In recent years, weight reduction of automobiles is being achieved by using light weight metals like magnesium (Mg) in the form of cast or wrought products. However, the structural application of Mg and its alloys is limited ...
Estimation and Control of Friction in Bulk Plastic Deformation Process
Friction plays a significant role in bulk plastic deformation processes in controlling the tool life, formability of the work piece material and the quality of the finished product such as, surface finish, microstructure ...
Liquid bridge breakup and detachment dynamics investigated using dynamic domain multiphase flow simulations
Liquid bridges, formed between two solid surfaces in close proximity are encountered in a variety of engineering and daily life applications. The dynamics of a liquid bridge including its evolution that typically involves ...
Blade Flutter in a Linear Cascade: Unsteady Loads and Flow Features in Subsonic and Transonic Flows
Vibration related issues like flutter can significantly limit the performance of aircraft engines and cause unwarranted cost and time overruns. The increased demand for more powerful yet compact engines has resulted in the ...
Insights of Evaporation Dynamics of an Interacting Linear Array of Droplet System
Manipulation of an array of sessile droplets organized in an ordered structure turns out to be of immense consequence in a wide variety of applications ranging from photonics, near field imaging and inkjet printing on one ...
Torque transport, mean velocity profiles and turbulent statistics of a wide-gap Taylor Couette flow
Wall-bounded turbulent flows that possess finite curvature of the mean flow streamlines are known to be starkly different from their
plane counterparts. One of the primary distinguishing features of such flows is the ...
Processing, Structure and Properties of Friction Stir Process Derived In-situ Nano Composites and Foams
High specific-strength materials with high toughness can reduce the weight of automobile and aerospace components. Lightweight components for these applications are essential, as they can significantly improve fuel efficiency. ...
Evaporation Driven Oscillations and Particle Agglomeration in Pure and Complex Fluid Sessile Droplets
A sessile droplet forms a fundamental building block in analyzing particle distribution and deposition in both industrial applications and lab on a chip research such as inkjet printing, surface patterning, photonic crystals, ...
Shock Dynamics due to Downstream Pressure Perturbations: Idealization of Transonic Unstarted Cascade Flutter
Shock wave unsteadiness is an important phenomenon in high-speed aerodynamics. This
phenomenon is observed in many locations of high-speed vehicles, such as supersonic inlets,
ramjet engines, transonic airfoils, high-speed ...
Experimental studies on Soot and Particulate reduction in Heavy Fuel Oil Combustion
Heavy fuel oil (HFO) is extensively used in industrial burners and marine engines. HFO droplet combustion gives rise to carbon particulates generated by pyrolysis, which are called cenospheres. There is a current hypothesis ...
