    Abstract: Machinability investigation of new material is one of the mandatory investigations to complete the purpose of creation of it. Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the promising unconventional machining processes for highly accurate machining performance in difficult-to-cut material even machining complicated profiles. The powder-mixed EDM and nanopowder-mixed EDM are the improved versions of the EDM. The Al–Zn–Mg composite is reinforced with Si3N4 (9 wt. %) for meeting automotive and marine applications. The aluminium nanoparticles enhanced deionised water was used in NPMEDM. The nickel-coated brass and uncoated brass tube electrode were considered for the investigation. Pulse on time (µs), voltage (V), input current (A), and capacitance (nF) were independent variables and varied at 3 levels. The microhole machining performance with a coated and uncoated electrode was investigated. The L18 orthogonal array involved in the experimental design, material removal rate, and electrode wear rate were analysed. The SEM analysis was employed in the surface morphological study of electrodes before and after machining. The input parameters were optimised for the coated electrode for the responses of MRR and EWR.

    Abstract: The present trend in industries is to improve the techniques currently used in design and manufacture of products in order to meet the challenges of the competitive market. The crucial task nowadays is to find the optimal design and machining parameters so as to minimize the production costs. Design optimization involves more numbers of design variables with multiple and conflicting objectives, subjected to complex nonlinear constraints. The complexity of optimal design of machine elements creates the requirement for increasingly effective algorithms. Solving a nonlinear multiobjective optimization problem requires significant computing effort. From the literature it is evident that metaheuristic algorithms are performing better in dealing with multiobjective optimization. In this paper, we extend the recently developed parameter adaptive harmony search algorithm to solve multiobjective design optimization problems using the weighted sum approach. To determine the best weightage set for this analysis, a performance index based on least average error is used to determine the index of each weightage set. The proposed approach is applied to solve a biobjective design optimization of disc brake problem and a newly formulated biobjective design optimization of helical spring problem. The results reveal that the proposed approach is performing better than other algorithms.

    Abstract: Grinding is a choice for obtaining high surface quality and closer dimensional tolerance. For meeting this objective economically, the material removal rate (MRR) must be sacrificed to certain extent. The MRR could be increased by either increase in wheel speed, depth of cut, and feed rate. An increase in MRR increases the surface temperature leading to thermal defects on surfaces. Improving the MRR without compromising the surface quality is a challenging objective. Many investigations are progressing for machining various materials under different cooling environments to meet such challenges. This experimental novel aim is to investigate the performance of Al2O3 nanofluid in high-speed grinding of EN31 steel under flood cooling method for reduction of surface roughness and cutting zone temperature. Taguchi’s full factorial design was employed for experimental investigation. The factors such as feed, depth of cut and cutting fluid environment were considered for analysing the responses of cutting zone temperature and surface roughness. The thermal analysis on the work piece was carried out with experimental values by the finite element analysis method. The nanofluids outperform in terms of reduction of surface roughness and downsizing cutting zone temperature. The proposed nanofluid-based grinding significantly reduced the surface roughness and cutting zone temperature.

    Abstract: Clean technology-based natural fiber composite fabrication is the prime aim of this piece of research. Natural fibers highly replace metal usage in industries and automobile, marine, medical applications, and so on. Vast amounts of natural fibers are freely available in all areas. In this research, work nanofiller material such as nano form waste coir fiber is collected from used car seat. The 10 wt.% of nanofiller material is added to the preparation of natural nanocomposites (ramie and abaca fiber). Hybrid composites are fabricated with the influence of different process parameters, namely, fiber weight percentage (20 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 40 wt.%, and 50 wt.%), NaOH action % (4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%), compression pressure (9 MPa, 12 MPa, 15 MPa, and 18 MPa), and temperature (100°C, 120°C, 140°C, and 160°C). Furthermore, the strength of this hybrid composite has analyzed by conducting flexural, impact, and shore hardness tests. These tests have provided the influence of selected parameters and their effects on the results of experimental work. In the flexural analysis, 6% of NaOH action has offered maximum flexural strength of the specimens. Correspondingly in the impact test, 30 wt.% of fiber is produced higher impact strength. Finally, applying 15 Mpa of compression pressure records the maximum shore hardness.

    Abstract: Nanocomposites are preferred for performance enhancement over micron composites because of their better performance in enhancing the desired properties of the parent material. Nano-silicon carbide and nano-graphite are considered together for reinforcement of Al7075 in this piece of research. Here, the purpose of reinforcement of graphite considered is to improve machinability. The stir casting was employed for fabrication of nanocomposite. The composite matrix includes Al7075 matrix material, reinforcement material of nano-SiC (5 wt.%), and nano-graphite (5 wt.%). Wire cut Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) of the synthesized nanocomposite SiC/Gr/Al7075 is considered for investigating the machinability. The objectives of the study are to synthesize the novel nanocomposite and optimize the process parameters to minimize the kerf width during WEDM. The independent variables like choice of wire electrode including the uncoated brass wire, diffused annealed wire, and zinc coated brass wire were considered along with operating parameters like gap voltage, pulse-off time (Toff), and pulse-on time (Ton). The response surface methodology (RSM) is used for designing experiments and analyzing and optimizing independent parameters of WEDM for minimizing the kerf width. Experimental results reveal that the machinability performance of the novel nanocomposite in WEDM with zinc coated brass wire was the best and produced minimum kerf width with the optimized inputs of 117 μs pulse-on time, 60 μs pulse-off time, 160A input current, and 10 volt gap voltage.

    Abstract: The defects stored during the fusion of the laser with the metal powder bed determine the optimal performance of fatigue and lifelong disintegration of the formed metal components. The advantage of using recent technologies of prototyping is very much powerful in understanding the physical process. The current works provide the details of the same for a 3-blade propeller with its thermomechanical approach to identified parameters. The results provide the materials used and their behaviour with the parameters which conclude in prescribing the material for the various applications. The investigation aimed to optimize the position of the object (3-blade Propeller) and material for printing through simulation before it was printed. The material choices of aluminium AlSi10 Mg, stainless steel 17–4 and stainless steel 316L were considered. The ten different object positions were considered and ranked by the minimum support area required. The top and bottom-ranked positions were further investigated with three different materials, namely Aluminium AlSi10 Mg, atainless steel 17–4, and stainless steel 316L, in which the Rank 1 position, the material of Aluminium AlSi10 Mg exhibits the minimum of maximum displacement (2.348e-01 mm), plastic strain (0.05), and the Von Mises Stress (2.086e+02 MPa).

    Abstract: The name shape memory alloy (SMA) reveals its behavior of being an accurate heat-sensitive material in changing its shape based on the temperature. This ample review concentrates on the current scenario of including SMA in polymer matrix composites to achieve desired objectives. Polymer-based shape memory alloys are termed shape memory polymers (SMP), and they consist of deformable materials that are able to switch between their original shapes and temporary shapes, which can be generously designed. SMPs could be classified as smart materials by considering their low density, good biocompatibility, excessive deformation etc. On the other hand, many engineering applications of SMP uses have limitations and disadvantages. In this regard, the importance of SMPs has been analyzed based on the following aspects: synthesis method, fiber reinforcement, parameters that affected the polymer-based SMA, and implementation of multifunctionality materials. Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have more responsibilities for expanding interest in current innovative research and expected mechanical applications because of their significant space compared with conservative materials. A polymer composite presents effectively adaptable product properties, expected high strength-to-weight ratio, high flexibility in the manufacturing process, high corrosion resistance, and easy fabrication at a lower cost.

    Abstract: Skin wounds are frequently influenced with microbial infections and inflammation, which need innovative agents for disputing them. Chitosan (Csn) was extracted from larvae of BSF “black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens” and ethanolic propolis extract (Pro) was employed for synthesizing silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), using facile biogenic protocol. The BSF-Csn was acquired with a yield of 1.56%, 91.3% deacetylation degree, and 88.600 Dalton molecular weight. The Ag-NPs were effectually biosynthesized using Pro, with a mean diameter of 8.73 nm and zeta potential of -21.34 mV. The antimicrobial activities assessment of insect Csn, Pro, synthesized Ag-NPs with Pro, and their composite against skin pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans) revealed the elevated efficiency of the individual agents and the superior action of their composite (Csn/Pro/Ag-NPs), with 26.3 and 23.4 mm inhibition zones and inhibitory concentrations of 35.0 and 45.0 μg/mL from the composite toward S. aureus and C. albicans, respectively, which exceeded the actions of commercial antibiotics. The treatment of rat’s wounds with this composite promisingly led to faster healing of wounds and absence of inflammation and infection signs. The powerful actions of Csn/Pro/Ag-NPs as antimicrobial and wound healing composite strongly advocate their applications for skin protection, disinfection, and regeneration.

    Abstract: Exposure to advanced materials with unique thermomechanical characteristics has fulfilled the requirements of automotive, marine, and structural industries. The current research investigates the thermal adsorption and mechanical properties of epoxy composite enriched by basalt fiber via resin moulding technique with an applied pressure of 2 bar. Hydrophobic and dynamic analyzer tests developed composite’s adsorption storage and loss modulus with 10, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 110 thermal cycles under 18°C to 150°C. ASTM test standards evaluated the effect of the thermal cyclic process on mechanical properties. The composite contained 45 vol% basalt fiber with 90 thermal cycles and found higher adsorption storage modulus, elasticity, tensile strength, and flexural strength of 9200 GPa, 80 GPa, 229 MPa, and 398 MPa, respectively. The thermal adsorption loss modulus was limited by 12% on 90 thermal cycles at 150°C compared to 10 thermal cycles.

    Abstract: Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have been implemented in latest digital video broadcasting, broadband wireless access (WiMax), and fourth generation of wireless standards. In this paper, we have proposed a high efficient low-density parity-check code (LDPC) decoder architecture for low power applications. This study also considers the design and analysis of check node and variable node units and Euclidean orthogonal generator in LDPC decoder architecture. The Euclidean orthogonal generator is used to reduce the error rate of the proposed LDPC architecture, which can be incorporated between check and variable node architecture. This proposed decoder design is synthesized on Xilinx 9.2i platform and simulated using Modelsim, which is targeted to 45 nm devices. Synthesis report proves that the proposed architecture greatly reduces the power consumption and hardware utilizations on comparing with different conventional architectures.
