Parametric Analysis of Mild Steel Specimens Using Roller Burnishing ProcessIRJESJOURNAL
ABSTRACT:- Burnishing, a cold working process, is a very simple and effective method of improving surface properties, which can easily be carried out using existing machines, such as lathe. With changing trends in manufacturing industry, special attention is given on surface finish along with dimensional accuracy and tight geometrical tolerances. Burnishing comes in mind as one of popular finishing process because it is completely chip-less as compared to other finishing processes such as grinding, honing etc. The purpose of the research was to demonstrate burnishing process on ferrous metals namely mild steel alloy. Parametric analysis was done using speed and feed rate as input parameters and surface roughness & surface micro hardness as response variables. Burnishing was performed using Hindustan machine tools (HMT) power lathe (NH 26 model)

EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS AND MODELLING OF GRINDING AISI D3 STEELijmech
Grinding of hardened steels for the realisation of better surface quality of the workpiece is an essentiality
of high productivity environments. The surface grinding of high carbon high chromium steels like AISI D3
with a production level grinding wheel used in the industry is the driver of the present research article. The
experimentation is done in dry as well as pool cooling conditions to ascertain the better of the two
conditions in providing a better set of cutting forces and surface finish. A mathematical model for
evaluating the forces generated during grinding is evolved and on comparison of the results obtained from
the model with the ones from experimentation is found to be correlating. The usage of production level
vitrified grinding wheel has shown good results in terms of lower forces generated and good surface finish
during surface grinding. The results are optimised and the set of inputs which yield good surface finish and
low forces are given. Dry grinding of AISI D13 yields good surface finish than wet grinding. Surface finish
of 0.14 microns is achievable using dry grinding.

PARAMETERS OF FRICTION STIR PROCESSING ALONG WITH REINFORCEMENT OF COMPOSITIO...Journal For Research
Friction stir processing (FSP) is a novel technique used for the enhancing the mechanical and metallurgical properties of the material and also to make composites of the material. In this study, an attempt is made to synthesize the composites of AA6063 and tungsten carbide particles with 5 µm particle size were added reinforcement. The tool shoulder is varied from 16 mm to 20 mm. The other parameters such as tool rotational speed of 1400 rpm and transverse speed of 50 mm/min are kept constant. The friction stir processing tool is made of high chromium high carbon steel with a pin length of 4 mm and pin diameter of 6 mm is used. The 18 mm shoulder diameter produces much finer grain size with tungsten carbide reinforced particles rather than the tools having shoulder 16 mm and 20 mm diameter. The maximum tensile strength and micro hardness achieved is 260 N/mm2 and 135 Hv respectively. In case of the tool having 16 mm diameter produces less amount of heat due to lesser contact with the workpiece material and the tool having 20 mm diameter, over heat the workpiece material due to more contact area with the workpiece and causes no proper plastization and flow of the material within the processed zone by friction stir processing and produces courser grain size.

The influence of silicon carbide SiC abrasive particles of 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 size on carburized digger tooth steel was studied. Four types of steel, with different hardness, were tested at two constant linear sliding speeds and under various loads of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50N. Tests were carried out for sliding time of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5min. Experimental results showed that there was consistent reduction in abrasive wear as the hardness of the materials was increased. It was found that wear increased with the increase of applied load, linear sliding speed and sliding time. Also, it was noticed that the wear increased with increase in abrasive particle size, and the most effective size was 40 . SEM observations of the worm surface showed that the cutting and ploughing were the dominant abrasive wear mechanisms.
Influence of tellurium addition on drilling of microalloyed steel (din 38mns6)Lepuufu
Purpose – This paper seeks to evaluate the influence of tellurium content on the machinability of the microalloyed pearlitic steel (DIN 38MnS6).
Two grades of steels were used, one with high (27 times greater) tellurium content and one with a low tellurium content. Machinability of the steel was
determined by the number of holes drilled by the tool before undergoing severe deformation. The drilling test matrix was prepared using a fractional
factorial design with five input variables studied at two levels (25-1). Other variables investigated include cutting speed (45 and 60 m/min), feed rate
(0.15 and 0.25 mm/rev), geometry of the twist drills and use of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) at the flow rates of 30 and 100 ml/h. Statistical
analysis of the results revealed that composition of the work material was most influential on tool performance. Addition of tellurium to the steel
significantly improved machinability, increasing the number of drilled holes by over 100 per cent. The MQL flow rate was the least influential as increase
in the flow from 30 to 100 ml/h reduced drill life only by about 9 per cent.
Design/methodology/approach – The drilling tests were carried out in the vertical position, up-down, without pre-holes (full drilling). Cutting
speeds of 45 and 60 m/min and feed rates of 0.15 and 0.25 mm/rev were employed. Drills with two sharpening types were tested. Cutting fluid used
was vegetable based and applied using the MQL technique at flow rates of 30 and 100 ml/h. The rejection criterion adopted was severe deformation of
the drills and the number of machined holes was used to measure the machinability of the material.
Findings – Of all the variables investigated in this study, the least influential on drill performance is the MQL flow rate. Increase in the flow rate from
30 to 100 ml/h reduced drill performance by 9 per cent, contrary to expectation. This is a result of the cooling-lubricant action balance promoted by the
cutting fluid applied in low quantities (MQL). The most influential variable on drill performance is addition of Te to the work material which gave over
twofold (103 per cent) improvement in drill performance at the cutting conditions investigated. The Te particles act at the chip-tool interface, reducing
the work necessary to shear the material during chip formation. Increase in both the cutting speed and the feed rate both lowered drill performance
during machining due to associated increase in cutting temperature which tended to accelerate thermally related wear mechanisms.
Originality/value – This work was conducted to evaluate the machinability of a novel alloyed steel employed in the automobile industry. Drilling was
considered as most automobile components especially the engine block is designed with many holes which require drilling process.
Effect of process parameters on material removal rate during grinding of hot ...IJMER
Grinding can be described as a multi-tooth metal cutting operation in which material is
generally removed by shearing and ploughing in the form of micro sized chips by the abrasive grits of
the grinding wheel. This paper presents an important investigation of material removal behaviour during
grinding of hot work steel AISI H11 under different working environments (dry, wet cooling and
compressed gas) and process parameters ( feed rate, depth of cut and wheel speed). During the
experimental investigation, Aluminimum oxide grinding wheel was used to perform cutting action. It was
observed that under compressed gas, increase in depth of cut and decrease in feed rate resulted in
significant increase in material removal rate.
Determining the influence of cutting fluids on tool wear and surface roughnes...Lepuufu
Knowledge of the performance of cutting fluids in machining different work materials is
of critical importance in order to improve the efficiency of any machining process. The
efficiency can be evaluated based on certain process parameters such as flank wear, surface
roughness on the work piece, cutting forces developed, temperature developed at the tool
chip interface, etc. The objective of this work is to determine the influence of cutting fluids
on tool wear and surface roughness during turning of AISI 304 with carbide tool. Further
an attempt has been made to identify the influence of coconut oil in reducing the tool
wear and surface roughness during turning process. The performance of coconut oil is also
being compared with another two cutting fluids namely an emulsion and a neat cutting oil
(immiscible with water). The results indicated that in general, coconut oil performed better
than the other two cutting fluids in reducing the tool wear and improving the surface finish.
Coconut oil has been used as one of the cutting fluids in this work because of its thermal
and oxidative stability which is being comparable to other vegetable-based cutting fluids
used in the metal cutting industry.

Surface Quality Improvement Using Modified Tool Clamping In Boring OperationsIJRES Journal
Boring operations are challenging owing to limited process performance due to inherent tool overhang and resulting vibrations. The tool vibrations can be suppressed with insertion of suitable damping methodology. The present work adopts a method suitable for machine operators, where in insertion of packing sheets at the boring tool support has been suggested. Insertion of number of layers causes frictional phenomenon to dissipate the exciting energy thereby damping the vibrations. Substantial improvement of surface quality of the internally machined surfaces has been noticed in the experiments
Probabilistic approach to study the hydroformed sheetIJERA Editor
Under the leadership of the Kyoto agreements on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, the automotive sector was forced to review its methods and production technologies in order to meet the new environmental standards. In fuel consumption reduction is an immediate way to reduce the emission of polluting gases. In this paper, the study of the formability of sheet submitted to the hydroforming process is proposed. The numerical results are given to validate the proposed approach. To show the influence of uncertainties in the study process, we take some characteristics of the material as random and the probabilistic approach is done. The finding results are showing the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
CUTTING FORCE AND SURFACE ROUGHNESS IN CRYOGENIC MACHINING OF ELASTOMER IAEME Publication
Most products based on elastomers are produced by some kind of molding and curing process. This paper deals with a new method of elastomer machining. A series of cutting experiments under different rake angle, cutting speed,
feed and constant depth of cut has been conducted on cutting force and surface roughness under ambient and cryogenic
condition. From experimental data it can be clearly seen that increase of cutting force become more significant with
higher cutting speeds for cryogenic cutting. Cryogenic machining showed remarkable reduction in surface roughness
compared ambient machining especially at high rake angle.

Wear Rate Analysis of Hydrodynamic Journal Bearing In Different ConditionsIJMER
Friction and wear always occur at machine parts which run together. This affects the
efficiency of machines negatively. Hydrodynamic journal bearings are widely used in industry because
of their simplicity, efficiency and low cost. Wear due to relative motion between component surfaces is
one of the primary modes of failure for many engineered systems. Unfortunately, it is difficult to
accurately predict component life due to wear as reported wear rates generally exhibit large scatter.
An attempt has been made to study the influence of wear parameters like load, speed, type of lubricant
used, temperature, and viscosity of lubricant. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the wear
rate of different journalbearing materials (brass and white metal) under similar conditions. The
materials are tested in dry and wet lubrication under similar operating conditions. For this purpose we
use Pin-on-disc apparatus. It was found that the wear rate of both materials is more in dry conditions
compared to lubricated conditions (when tested under similar working conditions). We also found that
wear rate of white metal is more as compared to brass and higher frictional force is observed in case
of brass material
Analysis of Conditions in Boundary Lubrications Using Bearing MaterialsIJMER
In order to clearly establish the tribological potential of these alloys as bearing materials, the tribological parameters of the RAR Zn-Al alloys are compared to parameters of the CuPb15Sn8 lead-tin bronze, as a widely applied conventional bearing material. Existing Bearing of connecting rod is manufactured by using non ferrous materials like Gunmetal, Phosphor Bronze etc.. This paper describes the tribological behavior analysis for the conventional materials i.e. Brass and Gunmetal as well as New non metallic material Cast Nylon. Friction and Wear are the most important parameters to decide the
performance of any bearing. In this paper attempt is made to check major tribological parameters for three material and try to suggest better new material compared to conventional existing material. It could help us to minimize the problem of handling materials like Lead , Tin, Zinc etc.After Test on wear machine.

having arbitrary strain hardening properties. Ross and
Prager used Tresca‟s yield criterion and the
associated flow rule to derive a simple solution of the
problem with the assumption that the thickness of the
bulge is uniform at each stage.
Experimental results show that a central part of
the bulge is very nearly spherical and the spherical
region increases with the bulge height. Since no
membrane solution is expected to be sufficiently
accurate near the clamped edge, it is reasonable to
assume the bulge to be entirely spherical when large
strains are considered [4]. In the present paper, a
solution is therefore developed by assuming the bulge
to be spherical and employing Tresca‟s yield criterion
and the associated flow rule.

Semi-Analytically Obtained Results by
ANSYS LS DYNA Software
The forming limit curve is a graphical
representation of the relationship between equivalent
stress and equivalent strain, derived from measuring
the load applied on the sample, i.e. elongation,
compression, or distortion [5]. The slope of forming
limit curve beyond the point of Elasticity, at any
point is called the tangent modulus; the slope of the
elastic (linear) portion of the curve is a property used
to characterize materials and is known as the
Young‟s modulus. The nature of the curve varies
from material to material.
7.1 Inverse analysis methodology – Application to
room temperature [10]
Figure 4. FLC for Aluminium The block diagram below shows, the schematic of
the proposed inverse analysis methodology. In order
to determine flow stress data using a measured
geometry (of the deforming bulge), some observable
geometric quantities (e.g. bulge height and bulge
apex thickness) must be identified, based on their
sensitivity of the material properties. Refer free body
diagram of set-up form fig.7.
For room temperature bulge testing, the bulge
height and bulge apex thickness was selected as the
geometric quantity for comparison. Here behavior of
the material is assumed to be Bi-linear. Each kind of
material inherently consists of two modulus Elasticity
modulus- describing elastic behavior and Tangent
modulus-describing plastic behavior.
From literature reviewed, Tangent Modulus value
was selected as per material used and the analysis
carried out [6]. Different checkpoints were used in
Figure 5. FLC for Mild steel order to verify the trend of analysis with obtained
semi-analytical results. If the assumed values were
found to be irrelevant then, with proper changes in
assumption of Tangent Modulus values from
available existing literature was done. And again
analysis is being done till the convergence criterion
of analysis is achieved. For such kind of nonlinear
analysis ±11% variations in the results is agreeable as
per international norms.
