Industries of Future
Published: Jul 31, 2019 by Digital Manufacturing and Assembly Systems in Industry 4.0
Authors: Kalita, H., Zindani, D. and Kumar, K.
Subjects:
Engineering - Industrial & Manufacturing
In this chapter, the general overview of the manufacturing world in the future (or the future industries), their fundamental technologies, their future ethics and laws to be followed, their characteristics and their impact on socio-economic-political domain has been discussed in detail.
17. Virtual manufacturing of various types of gears and validation of the technique using rapid prototype
Published: Jul 31, 2019 by Virtual and Physical Prototyping
Authors: Goutam Pohit and Kaushik Kumar
Subjects:
Engineering - Industrial & Manufacturing
An attempt has been made to capture the phenomenon of generation of various types of gears along with chip formation. The validation of the virtual manufacturing technique was done using rapid prototype technology. The methodology is quite general and can be used for validation of any other virtual manufacturing process as well.
Mechanical and Tribological Behaviour of Nano Scaled Silicon Carbide Reinforced Aluminium Composites
Published: Mar 10, 2018 by Journal of Experimental Nanoscience
Authors: Nadeem Faisal and Kaushik Kumar
Subjects:
Materials Science
This work assesses the impact of the presence of Nano scaled silicon carbide on the Mechanical & Tribological behavior of aluminium matrix composites. Wear testing, microstructure & morphological, density & void testing, hardness, flexural and tensile test of the composites were investigated and outcomes were analysed.
Mechanical behaviour of graphene and carbon fibre reinforced epoxy based hybrid nanocomposites for orthotic callipers
Published: Mar 10, 2018 by Journal of Experimental Nanoscience
Authors: Nisha Kumari and Kaushik Kumar
Subjects:
Materials Science
The current analysis examines the a composite with polymer matrix reinforced with carbon fibre and graphene at the micro and nano level respectively as an alternative material for aluminium components of Orthotic callipers. The proposed composite showed higher strength, lower deformation and higher stiffness with a lower weight-to-volume ratio as compared to presently used material, i.e. aluminium.
