Since so many years a problem occurs in KSB Pump Va mbori for casting process i.e. cracks occurs in the castings & it is repeated one. Therefore the compan y has given opportunity to me to solve this problem . In case of steel casting there are mainly cracks & also blo w holes induced due to the casting procedure. There are many factors for the casting defects .The factor is unev en material feeding in casting & also due to the mo uld material & also the core material. These cracks finally brea k directly the component of the casting i.e. in cas e of pump the casting component is like Impeller,Volute casing & casing cover. At the time of feeding of steel material in to the casting the material is in liquid us form i.e. it i s hot material & this material is feeding into casting at the time o f feeding it develop different region of heat. At o ne side the temp is high &at other side the temp is low this also pr oduce cracks. To simulate that casting we use the M AGMA SOFTWARE for simulation & validate it using NDT.

Introduction to Investment casting and Turbine Blade.pptxEr. Yash shinde
**Introduction to Investment Casting:**
Investment casting, also known as lost-wax casting, is a precision manufacturing process used to create intricate metal components. It involves creating a wax pattern, coating it in ceramic, melting the wax to form a mold, and then pouring molten metal to produce the final part.
**Turbine Blade:**
Turbine blades are vital components in gas turbines, jet engines, and steam turbines. They efficiently extract energy from moving fluids, converting it into mechanical power. Designed to withstand high temperatures and forces, turbine blades are essential for aviation propulsion and power generation in gas and steam plants.

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.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
MPI uses magnetic fields and iron oxide
particles to detect surface and slightly
subsurface defects such as cracks. It is a
widely used and versatile testing method
but requires proper preparation of the
surface and can only detect ferromagnetic
materials.
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
UT uses high-frequency sound
waves to detect subsurface defects
such as cracks, voids, and
inclusions. It provides accurate and
reliable results but requires skilled
operators and can be affected by
material properties and geometry.
X-ray Radiography
X-ray radiography uses X-rays to
produce images of the internal
structure of the turbine blade. It can
detect a wide range of defects but
requires additional safety precautions
due to the ionizing radiation involved.
Thermography
Thermography involves measuring
temperature differences on the surface of
the turbine blade using infrared cameras. It
can detect surface defects, heat-affected
zones, and thermal stress but is affected by
environmental conditions and requires
proper heating and cooling of the blade.
13. Challenges in NDT testing of turbine blade
1. Complex Geometry: Gas turbine blades often have intricate designs and
complex geometries, making it challenging to access and inspect all
areas using traditional NDT methods.
2. High Temperatures: Gas turbine blades operate at high temperatures,
which can limit the use of certain NDT techniques that are sensitive to
temperature variations.
3. Material Variability: Turbine blades are made from various materials,
including superalloys, which can have heterogeneous properties, making
it difficult to ensure consistent NDT results.
4. Cost and Time: Implementing advanced NDT techniques can be costly
and time-consuming, making it a trade-off between inspection quality
and production efficiency.
