Joint inversion of VES and Rayleigh wave data based on improved DE algorithm for near surface exploration

Benna Hu, Laifu Wen, Xuemei Zhou

Vertical electrical sounding (VES) and Rayleigh wave exploration are widely used in the exploration of near-surface structure, but both have limitations. This study aims to make…

Design and implementation of a novel multi-faceted-efficient pneumatic dual-axis solar tracker

Mohammad Fathi, Roya Amjadifard, Farshad Eshghi, Manoochehr Kelarestaghi

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are experiencing exponential growth due to environmental concerns, unlimited and ubiquitous solar energy, and starting-to-make-sense panel costs…

Improving structural performance of concrete beams by U-wrapped basalt fibre: a retrofitting approach

Hamsavathi Kannan, Soorya Prakash K., Kavimani V.

The aim of the work is to investigate structural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RF) beam retrofitted with basalt fibre (BF) fabric. The incorporation of BF showed enhancement…

A systematic review on high speed selective jet electrodeposition manufacturing

Vimal Kumar Deshmukh, Mridul Singh Rajput, H.K. Narang

The purpose of this paper is to present current state of understanding on jet electrodeposition manufacturing; to compare various experimental parameters and their implication on…

Analyzing the effect of inoculant addition on the solidification of ductile cast irons using thermal analysis

Bahubali Babanrao Sangame, Y. Prasannatha Reddy, Vasudev D. Shinde

The final properties of ductile iron are decided by the inoculant processing while pouring the melt. The shape and size of nodules generated during solidification are of paramount…

Development of an improved limit pressure equation for structurally distorted thin-walled pressurized 90 degree pipe bends

Raghuraman T., Veerappan AR., Shanmugam S.

This paper aims to present the approximate limit pressure solutions for thin-walled shape-imperfect 90° pipe bends. Limit pressure was determined by finite element (FE) limit…

Ravinder Kumar, Sahendra Pal Sharma

This experimental study aims to deal with the improvement of process performance of electric discharge drilling (EDD) for fabricating true blind holes in titanium alloy Ti6Al4V…

Performance analysis of a novel solar cogeneration system for generating potable water and electricity

Subbarama Kousik Suraparaju, Arjun Singh K., Vijesh Jayan, Sendhil Kumar Natarajan

The utilisation of renewable energy sources for generating electricity and potable water is one of the most sustainable approaches in the current scenario. Therefore, the current…

Fluid elastic instability and vortex shedding in finned tube arrays: the effects of tube material and fin density

Pravin Hindurao Yadav, Sandeep R. Desai, Dillip Kumar Mohanty

The purpose of this paper is to present investigations on the significant influence of the tube material and fin density on fluid elastic instability and vortex shedding in a…

Modelling and prediction of WEDM parameters for sustainable machining of titanium grade-2 alloy

Eswara Krishna Mussada

The purpose of the study is to establish a predictive model for sustainable wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) by using adaptive neuro fuzzy interface system (ANFIS)…

The analysis of web opening configuration on cold-formed steel hat purlin under torsion behaviour

Ying Ling Jin, Fatimah De’nan, Kok Keong Choong, Nor Salwani Hashim

Cold-formed steel has been used extensively as secondary elements such as purlins and girts in building frames. Purlin is critical to the structure of the roof because it supports…

Modeling of dam-break flood wave propagation using HEC-RAS 2D and GIS: case study of Taksebt dam in Algeria

Leghouchi Abdelghani

This study aims to predict the consequences associated with the propagation of the flood wave that may occur after the failure of the Taksebt dam and suggest an efficient…

The magnitude of stress concentration of I-beam with web opening because of lateral-torsional buckling effects

Nor Salwani Hashim, Fatimah De’nan

It is generally known that the perforated section such as the castellated section is good to sustain distributed loads but inadequate to sustain highly concentrated loads…

Concept development, design and validation of a novel continuous casting equipment

Prasenjit Biswas, Deepak Patel, Archana Mallik, Sanjeev Das

The purpose of this paper is to develop a concept and design to cast Al alloys/metal matrix composites (MMCs) by continuous casting process. The various steps involved in the…
