This presentation aims at introducing cryogenic fuel and cryogenic engine to non-specialists. It tries to convey in a synthetic form the essential features of cryogenic engineering and to raise awareness on key design and construction issues of cryogenic engine technology at a cryogenic temperature (i.e., .123 K). This basically uses the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen as an oxidizer and fuel, which are very clean and non-pollutant fuels compared to other hydrocarbon fuels like: Petrol, Diesel, Gasoline, LPG, CNG, etc., sometimes, liquid nitrogen is also used as an fuel. The efficiency of the rocket engine is more than the jet engine. As per the Newton’s third law of mechanics, the thrust produced in rocket engine is outwards whereas that produced in jet engine is inwards. This paper also deals with the modern trends and expected future outcomes.

Mechanical Power Transmission
Electrical power transmission has replaced mechanical power transmission everywhere except very shortest distances. What is worth remembering, however, is that from the 16th century through the industrial revolution to the end of the 19th century mechanical power transmission was the norm – even for long distances.
Chapter 3: Metal Works, Casting & Heat Treatmentsyar 2604
This topic explains the processes of metal works and casting. It also describes the types and purpose of heat treatment for steels and the effects of heat treatment on mechanical properties of steels.
Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by using high heat to melt the parts together and allowing them to cool, causing fusion. Welding is distinct from lower temperature techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do not melt the base metal.Welding is a fabrication process whereby two or more parts are fused together by means of heat, pressure or both forming a join as the parts cool. Welding is usually used on metals and thermoplastics but can also be used on wood.
In order for metal workpiece to have required working properties, a heat treatment process is often necessary. Heat treatment process generally includes three processes of heating, heat preservation and cooling. It is divided into quenching, tempering, normalizing, annealing, etc. depending on process. Can you distinguish it?

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Objectives of metal working processes are to provide the desired shape and size, under
the action of externally applied forces in metals.
Metal Working
2
Non-cutting or non machining shaping processes are referred to as mechanical working
processes.
It means an intentional and permanent deformation of metals plastically beyond the
elastic range of the material.
The impurities present in the metal are thus get elongated with the grains and in the
process get broken and dispersed through out the metal.
RECRYSTALISATION
When a metal heated and deformed under mechanical force, an energy level will be
reached when the old grain structure starts disintegrating.
Simultaneously new grain structure with reduced grain size starts forming and is
known as recrystalisation.
Temperature at which this phenomenon starts known as Recrystalisation
temperature.
3. It is this point, which draws the line of difference between cold working and hot working
processes.
Mechanical working of a metal below its recrystalisation temperature is called as cold
working.
Mechanical working of a metal above its recrystalisation temperature is called as hot
working.
3
Hot Working
•Mechanical working processes which are done above recrystallisation temperature of the
metal.
•Temperature should not be too high to reach the solidus temperature; otherwise the
metal will burn and become unsuitable for use.
•In hot working, the temperature of completion of metal working is important since any
extra heat left after working aid in grain growth.
Classification of hot working processes
Hot rolling, Hot forging, Hot extrusion, Hot drawing, Hot spinning, Hot piercing or
seamless tubing, Tube Forming and Hot forming of welded pipes
4. 1. As the material is above the recrystallisation temperature, any amount of working can
be imparted since there is no strain hardening taking place
2. At a high temperature, the material would have higher amount of ductility and
therefore there is no limit on the amount of hot working that can be done on a material.
Even brittle materials can be hot worked.
3. Grain structure of the metal is refined and physical properties improved
4. Porosity of the metal is considerably minimized.
5. If process is properly carried out, hot work does not affect tensile strength, hardness,
corrosion resistance, etc.
6. Since the shear stress gets reduced at higher temperatures, this process requires much
less force to achieve the necessary deformation.
7. No residual stresses are introduced in the metal due to hot working.
4
Merits of hot working
5. 1. Due to high temperature a rapid oxidation or scale formation takes place on the metal
surface, leading to poor surface finish and loss of metal.
2. On account of the lost of carbon from the surface of the steel piece being worked the
surface layer loses its strength, which is a disadvantage when the part is put to service.
3. This weakening of the surface layer may give rise to a fatigue crack which may ultimately
result in fatigue failure of the part.
4. Close tolerances cannot be maintained.
5. It involves excessive expenditure on account of high cost of tooling. This, however, is
compensated by the high production rate and better quality of products.
5
Demerits of hot working
6. 6
COLD WORKING
Cold working of a metal is carried out below its recrystallisation temperature.
It involves plastic deformation of a metal, which results in strain hardening.
Although normal room temperatures are ordinarily used for cold working of various
types of steel, temperatures up to the recrystallisation range are sometimes used.
The loss of ductility during cold working has a useful side effect in machining
With less ductility, the chips break more readily and facilitate the cutting operation.
PURPOSE OF COLD WORKING
1.Cold working is employed to obtain better surface finish on parts.
2. It is commonly applied to obtain increased mechanical properties.
3. It is widely applied as a forming process of making steel products using pressing and
spinning.
4. It is used to obtain thinner material.
7. 7
Cold working process increases:
• Ultimate tensile strength
• Yield strength
• Hardness
• Fatigue strength
• Residual stresses
Cold working processes decreases:
• Percentage elongation
• Reduction of area
• Impact strength
• Resistance to corrosion
• Ductility
8. 8
ADVANTAGES OF COLD WORKING
1.Smooth surface finish can be easily produced
2. Accurate dimensions of parts can be maintained.
3. Strength and hardness of the metal are increased but ductility decreased.
4. Since the working is done in cold state, no oxide would form on the surface and
consequently good surface finish is obtained.
5. Cold working increases the strength and hardness of the material due to the strain
hardening which would be beneficial in some situations.
6. There is no possibility of decarburization of the surface
8. It is far easier to handle cold parts and it is also economical for smaller sizes.
9. It is an ideal method for increasing hardness of those metals which do not respond to
the heat treatment.
9. 9
DISADVANTAGES OF COLD WORKING
1.Some materials, which are brittle, cannot be cold worked easily
2. Since the material has higher yield strength at lower temperatures, the amount of
deformation that can be given to is limited by the capability of the presses or hammers
used.
3. A distortion of the grain structure is created.
4. Since the material gets strain hardened, the maximum amount of deformation that can
be given is limited. Any further deformation can be given after annealing.
5. Internal stresses are set up which remain in the metal unless they are removed by
proper heat-treatment.
10. 10
COLD WORKING PROCESSES
Commonly employed cold working processes are:
1. Rolling
2. Extrusion
3. Wire drawing
4. Forging
5. Sheet metal operations
6. Cold spinning
7. Shot peening
11. Rolling is the most rapid method of forming metal into desired shapes by plastic
deformation through compressive stresses using two or more than two rolls.
The main objective of rolling is to convert larger sections such as ingots into smaller
sections either directly in as rolled state or as stock for working through other processes.
The coarse structure of cast ingot is convened into a fine grained structure using rolling
process.
11
Hot Rolling
The crystals in parts are elongated in the
direction of rolling, and they start to reform
after leaving the zone of stress.
Hot rolling process is being widely used in
the production of large number of useful
products such as rails, sheets, structural
sections, plates etc.
15. Cold rolling is the most rapid method of forming metal into desired shapes by plastic
deformation through compressive stresses using two or more than two rolls with or
without spraying water.
Coldrolling metals impart smooth bright surface finish and in good physical and
mechanical properties to cold rolled parts.
The preliminary step to the cold-rolling operation, the sheets of pre hot-rolled steel are
immersed in an acid solution to remove the washed in water and then dried.
15
Cold Rolling
The cleaned steel is passed through set of
rolls of cold rolling process thereby
producing a slight reduction in each the
required thickness is obtained
.
Cold rolling process is being widely used in
the production of large number of useful
products such as rails, sheets, structural
sections, plates etc.
16. 16
The arrangement of rolls in a rolling mill, also called rolling stand, varies depending on
the application.
The various possible configurations of rolls are similar to hot rolling.
The names of the rolling stand arrangements are generally given by the number of rolls
employed.
These stands are more expensive compared to the non-reversible type because of the
reversible drive needed.
Internal stresses are set up in cold rolled parts which remain in the metal unless they
are removed by proper heat-treatment.
This process needs more power for accomplishing the operation in comparison to hot
rolling.
18. 18
Forging
It is an oldest shaping process used for the producing small articles for which accuracy in
size is not so important.
It is defined as the plastic deformation of metals at elevated temperatures into a
predetermined size or shape using compressive forces exerted through some means of hand
hammers, small power hammers, die, press or upsetting machine.
Forging is often classified into hot and cold
forging according to the temperature
(recrystallization) at which it is performed.
HOT FORGING
During hot forging, the temperature reaches
above the recrystallization point of the metal.
This kind of extreme heat is necessary in
avoiding strain hardening of the metal during
deformation.
Isothermal forging is used to prevent the oxidation of certain metals, like super alloys.
19. 19
When a piece of metal is hot forged it must be heated significantly. The average
temperatures necessary for hot forging are:
Up to 1150 degrees Celsius for Steel
360 to 520 degrees Celsius for Al-Alloys
700 to 800 degrees Celsius for Cu-Alloys
Hot forging is also recommended for the deformation of metal that features a high
formability ratio.
1. Forged parts possess high ductility and offers great resistance to impact and fatigue
loads.
2. Forging refines the structure of the metal.
3. It results in considerable saving in time, labor and material as compared to the
production of similar item by cutting from a solid stock and then shaping it.
4. Forging distorts the previously created unidirectional fiber as created by rolling and
increases the strength by setting the direction of grains.
Advantages
20. 20
Disadvantages
5. Because of intense working, flaws are rarely found, so have good reliability.
6. The reasonable degree of accuracy may be obtained in forging operation.
7. The forged parts can be easily welded.
1. Rapid oxidation in forging of metal surface at high temperature results in scaling
which wears the dies.
2. The close tolerances in forging operations are difficult to maintain.
3. Forging is limited to simple shapes and has limitation for parts having undercuts
4. Some materials are not readily worked by forging.
5. The initial cost of forging dies and the cost of their maintenance is high.
6. Possible reactions between the surrounding atmosphere and the metal
Types of Forging Hand forging
Hammer forgings
Press forging
Machine forging
Drop forging
21. 21
Cold forging deforms metal while it is below its recrystallization point.
Cold forging is generally preferred when the metal is already a soft metal, like aluminum.
This process is usually less expensive than hot forging and the end product requires little,
if any, finishing work.
The most common metals in cold forging applications are usually standard or carbon alloy
steels.
One of the most common types of cold forging process called impression-die forging,
where the metal is placed into a die that is attached to an anvil.
The metal is then hit by a descending hammer and forced into the die.
Depending on the product, the hammer may actually be dropped on the metal numerous
times in a very rapid sequence.
Cold Forging
22. 22
Produces net shape or near-net shape parts
Cold forging is also less susceptible to contamination problems
Final component features a better overall surface finish.
Minimizes the cost
Easier to impart directional properties
Advantages
Disadvantages
The metal surfaces must be clean and free of scale before forging occurs
The metal is less ductile
Residual stress may occur
Heavier and more powerful equipment is needed
Stronger tooling is required
23. 23
Applications of forging
Forging is generally carried out on carbon alloy steels, wrought iron, copper-base alloys,
alumunium alloys, and magnesium alloys.
Stainless steels, nickelbased super-alloys, and titanium are forged especially for
aerospace uses.
In automotive applications, forged components are commonly found at points of shock
and stress. Forged automobile components include connecting rods, crankshafts, wheel
spindles, axle beams, pistons, gears, and steering arms.
Forgings are also used in helicopters, piston-
engine planes, commercial jets, and supersonic
military aircraft. Many aircraft are "designed
around" forgings and contain more than 450
structural forgings, including hundreds of forged
engine parts.
"Forged" is the mark of quality in hand tools
and hardware. Pliers, hammers, sledgers,
wrenches, garden implements, and surgical tools
are almost always produced through forging.
25. 25
Wire Drawing
All the wires that is available is produced by cold drawing through dies.
It is a metalworking process used to reduce the cross-section of a wire by pulling
the wire through a single, or series of, drawing die(s).
In drawing the wire is pulled, rather than pushed, through the die.
This process requires very large forces in order to pull the metal through the die.
Drawing is usually performed at room temperature, thus classified as a cold
working process, but it may be performed at elevated temperatures for large wires
to reduce forces.
To reduce the frictional force between the die and the metal the die is kept well
lubricated
26. 26
The process of producing the wires of different diameters is accomplished by
pulling a wire through a hardened die usually made up carbide.
The larger diameter oriented wire is first cleaned, pickled (H2SO4), washed, coated
with lime and then lubricated.
Cleaning is essentially done to remove any scale and rust present on the surface,
which may severely affect the die.
To make for an easier entrance of wire into the die, the end of the stock is made
pointed by hammering to facilitate the entry.
A pointed or reduced diameter at the end of wire duly lubricated is pushed or
introduced through the die which is water cooled also.
It is then gripped and pulled for attaching it to a power driven reel then wire
diameter is reduced in die because of the ductility property.
For more reduction in diameter of the wire, various sets of dies can be used in line
for subsequent reduction in diameter at each stage
27. 27
The reduction in each pass through the die range about 10% for steel and 40% for
ductile materials such as copper.
Dies are severely affected because of high stresses and abrasion.
Die materials are chilled cast iron, tool steels, tungsten carbide & diamond.
The cast iron dies are used for small runs.
For very large sizes, alloy steels are used in making the dies.
The tungsten carbide dies are used for medium size wires and large productions.
Smaller diameter wires are drawn through a die made of diamond.
29. 29
It is the process of enclosing the heated billet or slug of metal in a closed cavity
and then pushing it to flow from only one die opening so that the metal will take
the shape of the opening.
Extrusion
Extrusion process is identical to the
squeezing of tooth paste out of the tooth
paste tube.
The cross-sections that can be produced
vary from solid round, rectangular, to L
shapes, T shapes.
Extrusion may be continuous
(theoretically producing indefinitely long
material) or semi-continuous (producing
many pieces). Extrusions can be done with
the material hot or cold.
Commonly extruded materials include
metals, polymers, ceramics, and foodstuffs.
30. 30
The extrusion setup consists of a cylinder container into which the heated billet or
slug of metal is loaded.
From the other end, a plunger or ram with help of dummy block compresses the
metal billet against the container walls and the die plate, thus forcing it to flow
through the die opening, acquiring the shape of the opening.
The extruded metal is then carried by the metal handling system as it comes out
of the die.
Hot extrusion is done at an elevated temperature to keep the material from work
hardening and to make it easier to push the material through the die.
On one end of the
container, the die plate with
the necessary opening is
fixed.
31. • The heated metal billet is placed in to the
die chamber and the pressure is applied
through ram
• The metal is extruded through die opening
in the forward direction, i.e. the same as
that of the ram
• In this case, the problem of friction is
prevalent because of the relative motion
between the heated metal billet and the
cylinder walls
• To reduce such friction, at lower
temperatures, a mixture of oil and graphite
is generally used as a lubricant.
31
Direct or Forward Extrusion
32. Indirect Backward Extrusion
• In indirect extrusion, the billet
remains stationary while the die
moves into the billet by the
hollow ram (or punch), through
which the backward extrusion
take place.
• Since, there is no friction force
between the billet and the
container wall, therefore, less
force is required by this method
• This process is not widely used
because of the difficulty occurred
in providing support for the
extruded part
32
33. Tube Extrusion
• This process is an extension of direct extrusion process where additional mandrel
is needed to restrict flow of metal for production of seamless tubes.
33
Cold Extrusion
It is performed at temperatures significantly
below the melting temperature of the alloy
being deformed, and generally at room
temperature.
The process can be used for most materials,
provided that sufficiently robust machinery
can be designed.
Products of cold extrusion include aluminium
cans, collapsible tubes and gear blanks.
35. Shearing
• It is separation of metal by two blades
• In shearing a narrow strip of metal is severely plastically
deformed to the point where it fracture at the surface in contact
with the blades
• The fracture then propagate inward to provide complete
separation
• The depth through which the punch must penetrate depends on
the ductility of the metal
• Insufficient clearance – distortion of edges and power required
is high
35
36. Blanking
• A typical die and punch set used for
blanking operation
• The sheet metal used is called strip or
stock.
• The punch which is held in the punch
holder is bolted to the press ram while die
is bolted on the press table.
• During the working stroke, the punch
penetrates the strip, and on the return
stroke of the press ram the strip is lifted
with the punch, but it is removed from the
punch by the stripper plate
• The clearance angle provided on the die
depends on the material of stock, as well
as its thickness.
36
•For thicker and softer materials generally higher angular clearance is given. In
most cases, 2 degree of angular clearance is sufficient.
37. Punching and piercing
• It is the operation of producing
circular holes on a sheet metal
by a punch and die.
• It is a process by which a hole is cut (or torn)
in metal. It is different from punching
• piercing does not generate a slug. Instead, the
metal is pushed back to form a jagged flange
on the back side of the hole.
• A pierced hole looks somewhat like a bullet
hole in a sheet of metal.
37
38. Trimming
• When parts are produced by die casting or drop forging, a small
amount of extra metal gets spread out at the parting plane.
• This extra metal, called flash, is cut off before the part is used, by an
operation called trimming.
• The operation is very similar to blanking and the dies used are also
similar to blanking dies.
• The presses used for trimming have, however, relatively larger table.
38
39. Stretch forming
• In this forming tensile force is applied on the
metal which is placed over the die
• Due to tensile stress large deformation for
ductile metal can be achieved only by this
process
• Sheet is first wrapped around the block and the
tensile load is increased through jaws until sheet
is plastically deformed to final shape
• Spring back effect is eliminated
• Used in air craft industries for producing larger
curvature
39
40. Bending
• It is a operation by which straight length is
converted to curved like drums,channels.
• As a sheet metal is bent its fibres experience a
distortion such that those nearer its outside,
convex surface are forced to stretch and come in
tension, while the inner fibres come in
compression.
• Somewhere, in the cross section, there is a plane
which separates the tension and compression
zones. This plane is parallel to the surface around
which the sheet is bending, and is called neutral
axis.
40
The position of neutral axis depends on the radius and angle of bend
The bend radius can not be made smaller than certain value. The minimum bend
radius is expressed as 3T,5T etc.
41. Embossing
• Embossing is an operation in which sheet
metal is drawn to shallow depths with male
and female matching dies.
• The operation is carried out mostly for the
purpose of stiffening flat panels.
• The operation is also sometimes used for
making decoration items like number plates
or name plates, jewellery, etc.
41
42. Coining
• Coining is a severe metal squeezing operation in which the flow of metal occurs
only at the top layers of the material and not throughout the values.
• It is mainly used for production of important articles such as medals, coins, tickers
and other similar articles, which possess shallow configurations on their surfaces.
• The blank is kept in the die cavity and pressures as high as five to six times the
strength of material are applied
42
•The difference between coining and
embossing is that the same design is created
on both sides of the work piece in embossing
(one side depressed and the other raised)
whereas in coining operation, a different
design is created on each side of work piece.
•Force required for coining process is more
than embossing process
43. Drawing
43
It is a process of making cups, shells an similar articles from metal blank
Shaping of materials where the heated or normal blank is placed over the die
opening the punch forces the blank through the die opening to form a cup or shell.
The multiple dies are also used to accomplish the stages in drawing process.
Kitchen utensils and components of food processing industries are manufactured
by this process.

TYPES OF DIE
Progressive die
Compound die
Combination die
Progressive die
It perform two or more operation simultaneously in a single stroke of punch press.
Place where each operation is carried out is called station
Strip under goes operation in each station and while leaving at last station, finished
component is obtained
Terms – advance distance, feed distance
Preferable sequence- piercing, blanking or cutoff operation
Choice of this die- mass production, medium size material
46. 46
Compound die
All the operations are carried
out at a single station in single
stroke of ram.
It contain compound die which
consists of necessary set of
punches and dies.
During stroke, piercing of hole is done and followed by blanking.
Blank is done opposite to the direction of piercing, so punch used for piercing
becomes die.
Compound dies are slower and more accurate than the progressive die.
Components with small strips can also made easily.
47. 47
Combination die
It is same as that of a compound die.
Here non cutting operations such as bending and forming also performed.
