An Overview of Rapid Prototyping-FDM
Abstract: Rapid prototyping (RP) has been introduced as a frontier technology in the modern times, which allows direct transformation of CAD files into functional prototypes. It decreases the lead-time to produce physical prototypes necessary for design verification, fit and functional analysis by generating the prototypes directly from the CAD data. This paper presents an overview of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) process, process parameters and its applications. Keywords: additive manufacturing, fused deposition …

Modelling the Parameters Affecting Interconnection of Grids Using ISM-MICMAC Approach
Abstract: grid interconnections offer links between power generating systems of adjoining countries with the aim of economical power sharing. Grid interconnection also offers several benefits such as reduced energy prices, better economic exchange and increased energy supply etc. The interconnection of power grids is a complex task which is affected by numerous parameters. These parameters not only influence the interconnection of grids but also influence each other. The main objective of …

The Effect of Carbon Percentage on Structural Steel’s Compressive and Tensile Strength: A Literature Survey
Abstract: The fundamental necessity of this survey is to check the enhancement of the strength, hardness, dimensional stability and wear resistance by passing them through the cold temperature that enhance the hardness of the substance as a result of the increment in which it took place within the proportion of primary solid solution within the structure. If the type of methods mentioned in the article are employed in manufacturing and production …

Analysis of Mechanical and Corrosion Properties of AISI50110 (EN31) Steel With and Without Heat Treatment
Abstract: The mechanical properties of steel decide its applicability for a particular condition. Heat treatment processes are commonly used to enhance the required properties of steel. The material was machined to ASTM standards and then different tests like microstructure analysis, hardness test, impact test, etc. were carried out after the heat treatment processes. All the tests were carried out in the mechanical workshops and laboratories under the supervision of their respective …

Correlation between full width at half maximum (FWHM) of XRD peak with mechanical properties
Abstract: Full width at half maximum (FWHM) of XRD profiles characterizes different mechanical properties. However, there is no literature available that discusses about the correlation between the FWHM of XRD peaks with mechanical properties (ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, strain hardening coefficient and micro-hardness) upon plastic deformation. Martensitic stainless steel (type 410) and Ferritic stainless steel (type 430) samples were plastically deformed under different strain rate using tensile testing machine. Variation …

METALLURGY OF INVESTMENT CASTING TECHNOLOGY
Abstract: Investment casting is the most widely used process for several centuries, known as ‘lost wax casting’ or ‘precision casting’. This process is known to produce complex castings with good surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Poor quality of castings is always marked by inadequate surface finish, hardness and excessive shrinkage of the wax pattern. This review paper discusses on the history of investment casting technology, its processing techniques and parameters, casting …
