Study on Analysis and Design in Reinforcement Structure Joints of Water Tank Structure for Safety Human life
Abstract: A water tank is used to store water to surge over the daily requirement. In the construction of concrete structure for the storage of water and other liquids the imperviousness of concrete is most essential. The permeability of any uniform and thoroughly compacted concrete of given mix proportions is mainly dependent on water cement ratio. The increase in water cement ratio results in increase in the permeability. The decrease in …

Study and Characterisitics of Different GVF Profile of Rectangular Channel
Abstract: This technical note presents the equation for one-dimensional gradually-varied steady flow profiles with constant discharge, in a rectangular-section prismatic channel of constant roughness and small longitudinal slope. The flow profile differential equation was transformed by means of a polynomial approximation and then, by an algebraic procedure followed by the integration of the equation, the solution was obtained. This solution was applied to a particular case which, through a comparative analysis, …

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 …
