ABSTRACT Na-carboxymethylcellulose (cmc) is biopolymer that offers immense structural possibilities for chemical and mechanical modifications to generate novel properties, functions and applications especially in biomedical area. In this work films fabricated from cmc incorporated with plasticizer at different weight ratios were prepared. This was carried out by employing a solvent-casting method incorporating halloysite nanoclay (nanotube) […]

ABSTRACT This paper presents a comparative study of population based intelligent techniques to solve economic load dispatch. In real world economic dispatch problems possess highly non-convex objective function with solid equality and inequality constraints. In this paper optimal load dispatch problem is solved for three and six generator unit system using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) […]

ABSTRACT This deals with design and analysis of two plate mould injection mould tool. The objective of this is to design two plate mould tool and analyze the material flow of the selected product. This describes the material flow analysis to analyzed the material flow in the part and identify the best gate locations of […]

ABSTRACT Ionic liquids (ILs) are salts with low melting point close to room temperature. They have interesting solvent properties and are able to dissolve some polar molecules. Polyvinyl formal-IL (1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazoliumtosylate) nanocomposite electrolyte with layered filler was synthesized by solution cast technique. Changes in surface morphology have been observed using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopic […]

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the vibration characteristic of a curved beam. A beam of known dimensions is modeled and analyzed using computational analysis software ANSYS CFX and the results obtained are compared with the straight beam undergoing vibrations. A study is conducted by considering various materials to obtain optimum material selection. Different degrees of vibration […]

ABSTRACT Small scale manufacturing industries started implementing the green concept in their supply chain management recently to focus on environmental issues. Maximum of the small scale industries are setting up their own manufacturing plants in economical Indian market. Owing to community consciousness, economic, environmental or governmental reasons, the obligation of green supply chain management has […]

ABSTRACT The present work focuses on the determination of light induced defects by using thermally stimulated currents (TSC) technique in glassy alloy of Se90Sb8Ag2, prepared by conventional melt quenching technique. Amorphous nature of sample was verified by XRD. Thin films of the present sample were prepared by vacuum thermal evaporation technique. For this, amorphous thin […]

ABSTRACT Wearable robotics is gradually becoming an emerging research field and a few applications of wearable rehabilitation robots have been proposed in the literature to reinstate activities of daily life (ADL) in people suffering from motor disorders. This paper discusses the classification of wearable robots, technologies involved in wearable robots, human robot physical interaction. There […]

ABSTRACT Bangladesh has seen annual growth rates of around 6% for the last decade the recent international downturn has not had significant negative effects. On the contrary, an increased focus on Bangladesh as the most cost efficient production hub in Asia has been seen. Further economic growth is, however, seriously threatened by unfulfilled and growing […]

ABSTRACT This paper describes the development of a response model for electrical discharge machining inconel X750 utilizing response surface methodology. The metal removal rate (MRR), models are developed in terms of Pulse peak current (Ip), Pulse on time (Ton), Gap voltage (V).The contours have been generated from these model equations and are shown of different […]
