Experimental Analysis on Generation of Electricity Through Braking System (Regenerative Braking System)
Abstract: In conventional braking system the motion is retarded or stopped by absorbing kinetic energy by friction, by making the contact of the moving body with frictional rubber pad (called brake liner) which causes the absorption of kinetic energy, and this is wasted in form of heat in surroundings. Each time we brake, the momentum of vehicle is absorbed that it has gained by it and to re-accelerate the vehicle. As …

Entropy-Based Damage Accumulation in Tribological Systems: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: This paper reviews classical wear models and entropy-based degradation approaches used for predicting failure in tribological systems. Various wear models, thermodynamic frameworks, and applications of the Degradation Entropy Generation (DEG) theorem are discussed. Friction, which is the primary source of heat generation in tribological contacts, is responsible for material degradation through a variety of irreversible processes. While classical wear approaches have been widely used for wear prediction and life estimation, …

Experimental Study on Charging Conditions of a Single Component DDT Detonator Using Nickel Hydrazine Nitrate
Abstract: As a salt of a coordination compound of nickel, nickel hydrazine nitrate (NHN) is an energetic substance with characteristics halfway between those of primary and secondary explosives. It is less sensitive to friction and mechanical impact than other primary explosives, although it is highly sensitive to flames. NHN is not very dangerous to handle, but it explodes readily when exposed to flame. This property makes it possible to fabricate safety …
