In this research work, investigations are carried out on Continuous Wave (CW) Nd:YAG laser welding system after preliminary experimentation to understand the influencing parameters associated with laser welding of AISI 304. The experimental procedure involves a series of laser welding trials on AISI 304 stainless steel sheets with various combinations of process parameters like beam power, beam...

The thermal response of a magnetoresistive head is analyzed for frictional heating between the head surface and dust particles or other asperities on the recording medium surface during relative motion of head and medium. A theoretical model is presented showing that pulses are induced in the output of a magnetoresistive head as a result of this frictional heating. The model predicts the depend...

In this research article a comprehensive investigation has been carried out to determine the effect of thermal cycle on temperature dependent process parameters developed during gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding of high carbon (AISI 1090) steel butt joints. An experiment based thermal analysis has been performed to obtain the thermal history. We have focused on different thermophysical properties ...

This paper was concerned with studying the magnetohydrodynamic steady laminar free convection flow of a micropolar fluid past a continuously moving surface in the presence of heat generation and thermal radiation. Similarity transformation was employed to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary ones, which were then solved numerically using the finite element method...

In this paper the two-dimensional flow of a micropolar fluid through porous medium over a continuously moving porous vertical plate under the combined buoyancy effects of thermal and heat source has been studied under the action of transverse magnetic field taking into account the thermal radiation field. The Roseland approximation is used to describe radiative heat transfer in the limit of opt...
