The wide range of properties exhibited by Al based alloy makes them suitable for different applications. Aluminium containing nickel Selenide ternary alloy possess considerable corrosion resistance as compared to their pure metal counterparts. The objective of the present work has been focused on the preparation and characterisation of its thin film. Alloying with Aluminium improve the oxidatio...

Undesirable burrs are created in most of the machining processes. A burr is a plastically deformed material that remains attached at the workpiece edges after machining, and must be removed for making the parts to function effectively. The main objective of the present work is to explore the suitable condition to obtain minimum or negligible burr around the edge of a machined product at wet con...

It is well known that aluminium is today the most widely used metallic material besides steel. The mechanical characteristics of aluminium offer an increasing application field, especially where lightweight constructions are required. The demands for improved characteristics such as higher strength and greater durability are achieved by the development of new aluminium alloys. Continuous effort...

Study of the corrosion behaviour of a magnetron sputtered Al–Cu/Al–Cu–Mg model alloy couple in sulphate solutions has been undertaken to gain insight into the galvanic coupling between the matrix and SAl2CuMg particles in the 2024 aluminium alloy (AA2024). Polarisation curves and local electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements (LEIS) were performed on the individual alloys and on the ...

abstract: friction stir welding, a solid state innovative joining technique, is widely being used for joining aluminium alloys for aerospace, marine automotive and many other applications of commercial importance. fsw trials were carried out using a vertical machining centre (vmc) on aa6061 alloy. the main objective of the present work was to evaluate the weld processing parameter of friction s...

Precipitation hardening is the most common method in the strengthening of aluminium alloys. This method relies on the decrease of solid solubility with temperature reduction to produce fine precipitations which impede the movement of dislocations. The quality control of aluminium alloy specimens is an important concern of engineers. Among different methods, non-destructive techniques are the...

The H-point standard addition method (HPSAM), based on spectrophotometric measurements for simultaneous determination of beryllium and aluminium, is described. This method is based on the difference between their rates of reactions with Chrome Azurol S (CAS) in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micellar media. The results showed that beryllium and aluminium could be determined simultaneousl...

A great number of wheel tests are required in designing and manufacturing of wheels to meet satisfactory requirements. The impact performance of a wheel is the major concern. Numerical implementation of impact test is essential to shorten the design time, improve the mechanical performance and lower development cost. Project includes the “Topology Optimization of Cast Aluminium Alloy wheel” usi...

The electronic properties of quaternary AlInGaN devices significantly depend on the homogeneity of the alloy. The identification of compositional fluctuations or verification of random-alloy distribution is hence of grave importance. Here, a comprehensive multiprobe study of composition and compositional homogeneity is presented, investigating AlInGaN layers with indium concentrations ranging f...
