Energy application from the sun to heat water is well known. Solar water heater is a device which is used for heating the<br />

water for domestic and industrial purposes by utilizing the solar energy. Solar energy is the energy which is coming from sun<br />

in the form <strong>of</strong> solar radiations in infinite amount, when these solar radiations fall on absorbing surface, then they gets<br />

converted into heat. This heat is used for heating the water.<br />

This paper presents the study based on three procedure theory. Exergy analysis is conducted with the aim <strong>of</strong> providing some<br />

methods to save cost and keep the efficiency <strong>of</strong> solar water heater to desired extent and at the same time figuring out related<br />

exergy losses. In the Exergy analysis <strong>of</strong> solar water heater systems, the conversion <strong>of</strong> solar radiation is typically included<br />

within the analysis. Exergy analysis has been widely used for the optimisation and allocation <strong>of</strong> losses in energy systems.<br />

Exergy is the expression for loss <strong>of</strong> available energy due to the creation <strong>of</strong> entropy in irreversible systems or processes. The<br />

exergy loss in a system or component is determined by multiplying the absolute temperature <strong>of</strong> the surroundings by the<br />

entropy increase. Exergy is also a measure <strong>of</strong> the maximum useful work that can be done by a system interacting with an<br />

environment. It has been widely used in the design, simulation and performance evaluation <strong>of</strong> energy systems.<br />

Regardless <strong>of</strong> how perfect engine is operating, there will always be some harmful byproducts <strong>of</strong> combustion. When the<br />

combustion <strong>of</strong> fuel takes place in an engine <strong>of</strong> an automobile in the presence <strong>of</strong> air, following reaction takes place:<br />

Hydrocarbons<br />

xCO 2+yH2O+Heat<br />

Fumes <strong>of</strong> un-burnt hydrocarbons produce a number <strong>of</strong> petrochemical oxidants & photochemical smog with O 2 & N 2<br />

which causes adverse effects on physiological activities <strong>of</strong> living beings. Emissions from gasoline powered vehicles are<br />

generally the hydrocarbons like CO, NOx, SO 2, etc.<br />

Catalytic converter is a device which treats the exhaust emission and converts them into the less harmful substances. This<br />

device is located in-line with the exhaust system and is used to cause a desirable chemical reaction to take place in the<br />

exhaust flow. In this paper the various aspects <strong>of</strong> design, construction, working and performance analysis <strong>of</strong> a catalytic<br />

converter are discussed. The converter performance is simulated by considering chemical reactions and heat transfer<br />

phenomena as the exhaust gases flow through the catalyst.<br />

This paper presents a compact tri-generation system in order to cover the electric and thermal power demand <strong>of</strong> small rural<br />

areas using the renewable energy. The gasifier generator coupled power plants are being widely used in rural communities<br />

where electric network doesn't exist. The recovery <strong>of</strong> the exhaust gases makes the system very attractive. Apart from it, there<br />

is the performance study <strong>of</strong> a compact power plant and a tri-generation plant. The stack gases from internal combustion<br />

engine are directed to a 25 kW ammonia-water absorption refrigeration chiller. In the power plant,31.25% is the electric<br />

power generation <strong>of</strong> the total fuel gas input and same amount <strong>of</strong> stack gases at temperature 400 0 C just at out let <strong>of</strong> engine is<br />

India is a developing country with enormous growth in the Industrial sector. A major concern however lies in the limited<br />

energy resources which are the driving force <strong>of</strong> any industry or country as a whole. Hence, it becomes important to focus on<br />

the energy consumption pattern <strong>of</strong> the country and to identify where optimization is needed. Energy consumption is also<br />

related to the environment i.e. CHG emissions and therefore CHG monitoring is also important to check the emissions.<br />

Index Decomposition Analysis (IDA) is an analytical tool based on the Index Number Theory used in Economics and<br />

Statistics. It is at present a much sought after research area to analyse the energy consumption pattern or to decompose<br />

energy indicators. IDA is widely used to disentangle and separate changes in energy consumption, energy intensity and<br />

CHG emissions in energy and environmental field. In the present work an attempt has been made to review the energy<br />

consumption in India and discuss IDA.<br />

The finite-time and finite size are considered to be the major constraints in the optimization <strong>of</strong> the real systems. In classical<br />

thermodynamic analysis, these constraints are not considered because <strong>of</strong> the inherent assumption <strong>of</strong> reversibility. Finite<br />

Time Thermodynamics provide a fundamental starting point for the optimization <strong>of</strong> real systems. The optimization studies<br />

<strong>of</strong> refrigeration and heat pump systems that consider various objective functions based on Finite Time Thermodynamics and<br />

thermo-economics are reviewed here.<br />

Coal is chemically and physically a complex and heterogeneous material, consisting <strong>of</strong> organic and inorganic<br />

constituents from its origin .Concerted efforts are needed to reduce “ash-forming” inorganic elements and to develop<br />

clean methods <strong>of</strong> using coal.A combined-cycle gas turbine power plant consists <strong>of</strong> one or more gas turbine generators<br />

equipped with heat recovery steam generators to capture heat from the gas turbine exhaust. Steam produced in the heat<br />

recovery steam generators powers a steam turbine generator to produce additional electric power. Gas-fired combined-cycle<br />

plants produce less carbon dioxide per unit energy output than other fossil fuel technologies because <strong>of</strong> the relatively high<br />

thermal efficiency <strong>of</strong> the technology .Grate firing was the first combustion system used for solid fuels followed by<br />

pulverized and fluidized bed firing. The concept <strong>of</strong> burning coal that has been pulverized into a fine powder stems from<br />

the belief that if the coal is made fine enough ,it will burn almost as easily and efficiently as gas. Various scrubbing<br />

processes have been proposed to remove carbon dioxide from air or flue gases. In contrast to wet scrubbers which apply<br />

energy directly to the flowing fluid medium, an ESP applies energy only to the particulate matter being collected and<br />

therefore is very efficient in its consumption <strong>of</strong> energy (in the form <strong>of</strong> electricity). Most FGD systems employ two stages:<br />

one for fly ash removal and the other for SO2 removal. However, these systems experienced severe maintenance problems<br />

and low removal efficiency. In wet scrubbing systems, the flue gases normally passes first through a fly ash removal device,<br />

either an electrostatic precipitator or a wet scrubber, and then into the SO2-absorber. However, in dry injection or spray<br />

drying operations, the SO2 is first reacted with the sorbent, and then the flue gas passes through a particulate control device.<br />

Another important design consideration associated with wet FGD systems is that the flue gas exiting the absorber is<br />

saturated with water and still contains some SO2. These gases are highly corrosive to any downstream equipment such as<br />

fans, ducts, and stacks. Usage <strong>of</strong> supercritical and ultrasupercritical pulverised coal technologies along with<br />

Circulating Fluidised Bed Combustion besides IGCC has been discussed as Clean Coal Technologies for power<br />

generation. Hence the paper Clean Coal Technologies for Power Generation in India : A Near Zero Emission Plant<br />

Approach is limited to the study <strong>of</strong> various technologies to reduce emissions/greenhouse gases by coal combustion.<br />

in India is limited to composting only. The amount <strong>of</strong> solid waste in Delhi alone is nearly 9000 MT / day. The quality <strong>of</strong><br />

compost is not appropriate because <strong>of</strong> mixed solid waste and its poor quality .The compost thus produced is not salable in the<br />

market. In domestic solid waste if the organic content is collected separately the food stuff waste content can be utilized for<br />

compost which shall be <strong>of</strong> good quality. Again the content in the form <strong>of</strong> Plastic and paper is suitable for the purpose <strong>of</strong><br />

In a conventional IC engine a considerable heat is carried away by exhaust gases. To recover the waste heat, various methods<br />

are being adopted. One <strong>of</strong> them is turbo charging. In this project an attempt has been made to explore the various possibilities<br />

<strong>of</strong> waste heat / energy recovery methods in conventional commercial two wheeler and four wheelers. In this context, a new<br />

concept <strong>of</strong> hybrid engine has also been discussed. The heat energy contained in the exhaust gases are recovered in three<br />

different methodologies.<br />

Firstly, by introducing an auxiliary combustion chamber and injecting an additional suitable fuel and then allowing it to<br />

expand in a turbine which forms the part <strong>of</strong> turbo charger unit. Thus the waste heat energy is utilized to burn an additional<br />

amount <strong>of</strong> fuel. The second stage contains a thermoelectric generator which produces electrical energy by utilizing the high<br />

heat <strong>of</strong> exhaust gases. The third stage energy recovery is done by coupling a compressor and an alternator. Both being<br />

coupled to the turbine shaft, produces electrical energy and compressed air which can be accumulated and used effectively<br />

for running any auto auxiliaries. Thus the principle <strong>of</strong> electro turbo generation has been adopted for waste heat recovery In<br />

order to use the aforesaid combination <strong>of</strong> waste energy recovery systems a matrix has also been suggested.<br />

To make the battery work longer once charged the electrons can be made to get over the negative terminal <strong>of</strong> the battery<br />

using the photon energy by the use <strong>of</strong> a low wave length ultra violet lamp [1].In process forms a circuit that acts as the<br />

charging circuit <strong>of</strong> the battery. Thus the rate <strong>of</strong> discharge <strong>of</strong> the battery reduces and battery life increases. Such an<br />

arrangement if used with the battery will tend to recharge the battery when it's being used. Thus the net discharging rate <strong>of</strong><br />

Heat transfer characteristics and flow structure in laminar and turbulent flows through a rectangular channel containing<br />

built in vortex generators have been analyzed by means <strong>of</strong> solutions <strong>of</strong> the full Navier-Stokes and energy equations The<br />

effects <strong>of</strong> two different shaped LVGs, rectangular winglet pair (RWP) and delta winglet pair (DWP) with two different<br />

congurations, common-ow-down (CFD) and common-ow-up (CFU), are studied. The numerical results indicate that the<br />

application <strong>of</strong> LVGs effectively enhances heat transfer <strong>of</strong> the channel. According to the performance evaluation<br />

parameter, (Nu/Nu 0)/(f/f 0), the channel with DWP has better overall performance than RWP; the CFD and CFU<br />

congurations <strong>of</strong> DWP have almost the same overall performance; the CFD conguration has a better overall performance<br />

than the CFU conguration for RWP. The basic mechanism <strong>of</strong> heat transfer enhancement by LVGs can be well described<br />

by the eld synergy principle. The main purpose <strong>of</strong> this study is to show the performance <strong>of</strong> delta winglet type vortex<br />

generators in improving heat transfer.<br />

This article describes the design and performance improvements <strong>of</strong> a high pressure turbine bypass valve Zick Twist trim<br />

(multi stage, multi path). For effective control <strong>of</strong> velocity, pressure and temperature, a trim designed to have a tortuous path<br />

was designed. Computational fluid dynamics and FEM analyses were used in the design process. The valve, which was<br />

installed with the designed trim, was tested. To evaluate its performance in the field, the valve was installed at a 225MW<br />

combined power plant system for two months. The results showed that the pressure letdown was successfully controlled by<br />

the designed trim, and the noise level was reduced below 85dB. The main objective <strong>of</strong> the work is to find the pressure drop,<br />

velocity variation, temperature distribution in the different stages <strong>of</strong> the turbine bypass valve using computational fluid<br />

dynamics. This is done to increase the performance <strong>of</strong> the valve.<br />

Three dimensional geometry <strong>of</strong> rectilinear cascade <strong>of</strong> four reaction blades is created in the Gambit® 2.2.3 s<strong>of</strong>tware and flow<br />

behavior has been studied using FLUENT 6.2. Air with an inlet velocity <strong>of</strong> 102m/s is passed through the cascade. The<br />

cascade is open to atmosphere at the exit. Initially, both surfaces <strong>of</strong> the blade <strong>of</strong> the cascade are kept as smooth and secondary<br />

loss is analyzed. This secondary flow loss is then compared with the blades on which a roughness <strong>of</strong> 500 µm is applied on<br />

suction surface and pressure surface individually as well as on both the surfaces together. It is observed that in a smooth<br />

blade average total loss is 14.7% whereas in case <strong>of</strong> blades having both the surfaces rough this loss gets almost doubled and<br />

becomes 27.7%. When roughness is applied to all the suction surfaces only then average total loss is 24.7% and if roughness<br />

is present only on the pressure surfaces then average total loss is 18.2%. But the corresponding average secondary loss<br />

decreases from 1.7% in case <strong>of</strong> smooth blades to 1.5% for rough blades. This average secondary loss is 1.9% for the blades<br />

on which roughness is present on all the pressure and 1.3% in case when roughness is applied to only suction surfaces <strong>of</strong> the<br />

blades.<br />

Boiler is one <strong>of</strong> the most important components for any power generation system. Performance <strong>of</strong> a boiler, like efficiency<br />

and evaporation ratio directly affects the overall performance <strong>of</strong> the electricity generation process and it reduces with time,<br />

due to poor combustion, heat transfer fouling and poor operation and maintenance. The easiest and most cost effective<br />

method [1] is to estimate the efficiency value on five broad elements: (1) Boiler stack temperature (2) Heat content <strong>of</strong> fuel (3)<br />

Fuel specification (4) Excess air levels (5) Ambient air temperature and relative humidity. The current study puts forward an<br />

The shell side design <strong>of</strong> a shell-and-tube heat exchanger; in particular the baffle cut and baffles inclination dependencies <strong>of</strong><br />

the heat transfer coefficient and the pressure drop are investigated by numerically modeling a small heat exchanger. The<br />

flow and temperature fields inside the shell are resolved using a commercial CFD s<strong>of</strong>tware tool STAR CCM+ v6.06. In this<br />

present work, attempts were made to investigate the impacts <strong>of</strong> various baffle inclination angles on fluid flow and the heat<br />

transfer characteristics <strong>of</strong> a shell-and-tube heat exchanger for three different baffles inclination angles namely 0°, 10° and<br />

20°. The simulation results for various shell and tube heat exchangers, one with segmental baffles perpendicular to fluid<br />

flow and two with segmental baffles inclined to the direction <strong>of</strong> fluid flow are compared for their performance. The results<br />

are observed to be sensitive to the turbulence model selection. For a given baffle cut <strong>of</strong> 36 %, the heat exchanger<br />

performance is investigated by varying mass flow rate and baffle inclination angle. From the CFD simulation results, the<br />

shell side outlet temperature, pressure drop, recirculation near the baffles, heat transfer, optimal mass flow rate and the<br />

optimum baffle inclination angle for the given heat exchanger geometry are determined.<br />

In the present analysis mathematical modeling for a 30MW cogeneration cycle is done and effect <strong>of</strong> cycle pressure ratio,<br />

inlet air temperature and turbine inlet temperature (TIT) is studied for the combustion chamber. Cogeneration is the<br />

production <strong>of</strong> electrical energy and useful thermal energy from the same energy source that is why it is called combined heat<br />

and power (CHP) system. From the results it is being found that there is an increase <strong>of</strong> exergy destruction by 31.30% when<br />

the inlet air temperature is increased from 5°C to 50°C. Increased exergy destruction shows that performance <strong>of</strong> combustion<br />

chamber deteriorates with the increase in inlet air temperature. A different pattern for the exergy destruction is observed<br />

when compressor pressure ratio is increased. From a compression ratio <strong>of</strong> 5 to 15 there is a decrease <strong>of</strong> exergy destruction in<br />

combustion chamber and after that it increases. After a compression ratio <strong>of</strong> 26, performance <strong>of</strong> system starts deteriorate and<br />

regenerator is no longer useful. That is why in the present analysis exergy destruction in the combustion chamber is studied<br />

only upto a pressure ratio <strong>of</strong> 26.<br />

Retr<strong>of</strong>itting technologies [inlet evaporative cooling system and steam injected gas turbine] have been applied on simple gas<br />

turbine cycle for performance improvement followed by parametric analysis. The performance improvement has been<br />

thermodynamically analysed and discussed for retr<strong>of</strong>itted techniques followed by performance studies. The parametric<br />

study predicts that retr<strong>of</strong>itting techniques (FCS and STIG) improves net power output, thermal efficiency, power<br />

generation efficiency , first law efficiency and exergetic efficiency (second law efficiency) while heat rate falls with a<br />

considerable increment in fuel consumption. Exergy analysis showed that combustion chamber and turbine are most<br />

sensitive components <strong>of</strong> retr<strong>of</strong>itted system. The results show that the power output , thermal efficiency , exergetic efficiency<br />

and fuel-air ratio have been enhanced 3.1% , 0.18%, 0.2% and 1.0% respectively while heat rate falls 0.6% by FCS<br />

technology. The power output , thermal efficiency , exergetic efficiency and fuel-air ratio have been improved 27.4% , 3.5%,<br />

25.8% and 14.4% respectively while heat rate falls 10.2% by STIG technology. The analysis shows that STIG technology is<br />

better than FCS and the combined FCS & STIG technology enhance the power output , thermal efficiency , exergetic<br />

efficiency and fuel-air ratio 30.5% , 3.5%, 25.7% and 15.2% respectively and reduces the heat rate 10.4%.<br />

The present work analyses the variation <strong>of</strong> cooling load with time <strong>of</strong> a system having single entity with the use <strong>of</strong> Finite<br />

Difference Method . Cooling load calculation is the major work performed in the air-conditioning system design. This<br />

should be performed as accurately as possible to reduce over design or under design <strong>of</strong> the system. Earlier work <strong>of</strong> analyzing<br />

cooling load with time involves Conduction Transfer Function (CTF) Method. Finite difference method is used for<br />

computation <strong>of</strong> transient heat conduction through the wall and ro<strong>of</strong>. Implicit finite difference method is chosen for its<br />

stability. Heat gain through window is calculated by taking solar heat gain coefficients (SHGC). Infiltration effect in the<br />

total cooling load is also discussed. The components <strong>of</strong> heat gain are finally categorized under convective and radiant<br />

portion. The convective portions are taken as cooling load. The radiant portions are changed to cooling load by multiplying<br />

them with radiant time factors. Finally an example <strong>of</strong> an auditorium is taken & cooling load is calculated at different instant<br />

<strong>of</strong> time which ultimately helps in the design <strong>of</strong> an air conditioning system.<br />

Energy crisis in world is increasing. There are limited resources <strong>of</strong> crude available on the earth. Price <strong>of</strong> LPG increasing day<br />

by day. There is a lot <strong>of</strong>f waste generated which have a problem <strong>of</strong> disposal. Bio gas production condition in India is very<br />

high. The temperature conditions for the production <strong>of</strong> bio gas are very favorable throughout the year and the availability <strong>of</strong><br />

the bio degradable waste is in bulk. There is great need for the development <strong>of</strong> the plants which should be based on the<br />

Kitchen waste, industrial waste and municipality waste treatment. So author feel, there is a lot <strong>of</strong> potential to produce biogas<br />

from kitchen waste. SLIET is spreading in 451 acre area. More than four thousand students are staying in 13 boys and girls<br />

hostels and five hundred families are also staying in residential area <strong>of</strong> SLIET campus. A survey is conducted at SLIET<br />

Longowal and kitchen waste data collected from different mess, residential areas, shopping complex and restaurant. Survey<br />

revealed that 600 kg/day <strong>of</strong> kitchen waste collected from residential area <strong>of</strong> faculty, staff, students mess and other location.<br />

Biogas <strong>of</strong> more than 32 kg/day (2 LPG Cylinder/day) can be produced by using the biogas plant. There is an expenditure <strong>of</strong><br />

Rs 2.50 lacs in constructing a bio gas plant. Produced biogases have a potential to replace a LPG already utilized for a<br />

cooking purpose <strong>of</strong> 250 student capacity in a hostel. The payback period is around 1 year and 3 months approximately.<br />

India's energy demands have increased very rapidly with the ever increasing population. The process <strong>of</strong> urbanization and<br />

industrialization also add to this demand. Movement <strong>of</strong> India's growth and economy in the last 30 years averaging growth <strong>of</strong><br />

7% per year since 2000. Today India rank forth in world energy consumption. The IEPR report has estimated by 2030 energy<br />

requirement would go high by 5-6 % <strong>of</strong> current level. There is deficit in energy production and is equivalent to 16.8% <strong>of</strong> its<br />

peak demand as recorded on June 2011. For sustaining the growth India is presently recording this gap to be narrowed. So an<br />

urgent challenge for mankind to develop low cost, non polluting energy production technology. Another problem <strong>of</strong> India is<br />

rising population and the waste generated by them. With the rate <strong>of</strong> urbanization 2.8% annual rate <strong>of</strong> change waste<br />

generation is only going to rise. Overwhelming 90% <strong>of</strong> waste produced in India is disposed in land filling leading to<br />

innumerable health and environmental hazards. This report aims to address both aforesaid issues taking case study <strong>of</strong> Katra<br />

town. Katra has a high floating population that will touch 10.5 million footfalls by the end <strong>of</strong> December 2012. Report is<br />

focussing on converting “waste to energy” and need for better management <strong>of</strong> waste generated.<br />

The present work investigates the thermally induced buckling response <strong>of</strong> elastically supported laminated composite plates<br />

with random system properties using stochastic finite element method. The properties such as material properties, thermal<br />

0<br />

expansion coefficients and lamina thickness are modeled as basic random variables. A C nonlinear finite element method<br />

based on the higher order shear deformation plate theory using von Karman-type nonlinear strain displacement relations is<br />

used to discretize the laminate. A direct iterative method in conjunction with first order perturbation technique (FOPT) is<br />

outlined to solve the stochastic nonlinear generalized eigenvalue problems in thermal sense. Typical numerical results for<br />

second order statistics <strong>of</strong> thermal nonlinear buckling load <strong>of</strong> laminated composite plates are obtained for different support<br />

conditions, and temperature change. The numerical results for mean response are compared with the results available in the<br />

literature and for second order statistics with an independent Monte Carlo simulation.<br />

Improving the Impeller life is one <strong>of</strong> the most significant steps in improving the sustainability <strong>of</strong> the Flexible Impeller<br />

Pump. For the same purpose it is necessary to know the stress distribution on the impeller vane at specific conditions when<br />

failure is most likely to occur. Also it is necessary to identify the specific locations <strong>of</strong> failure on the vane. This process is<br />

difficult to carry out by hand calculation or by experimentation due the hyperelastic nature <strong>of</strong> the impeller material and also<br />

due to the high running speed <strong>of</strong> the pump.<br />

The uncoiling effect is evident when motion <strong>of</strong> one end <strong>of</strong> the spring is completely constrained and the other end is allowed<br />

to rotate freely during compression. The free rotation results in a change in spring attributes like rate <strong>of</strong> the spring and<br />

stresses generated within the spring. This has an obvious impact on the working and life <strong>of</strong> the spring. This paper showcases<br />

the work in a project, carried out to determine the extent <strong>of</strong> variation in load rates between helical suspension springs<br />

operating under both the cases (coiling restricted and coiling unrestricted). The experimental and FEM data showed a<br />

variation in the load rate as well as rotational movement in the end coil. Based on the study, it was concluded that, firstly,<br />

there is a definite change in spring performance under the two conditions. Secondly, during the design process and failure<br />

analysis, uncoiling is not considered. Lastly, testing processes need to be standardized as certain load machines have a<br />

rotating bottom table to allow uncoiling and some do not, resulting in different readings in a test for the same spring in<br />

different machines.<br />

Leaded Electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, and inductors used in automotive PCBs are prone to failure due<br />

to vibration loads. To predict failure, experimental failure analysis <strong>of</strong> capacitor carried out and suitable<br />

lead wire radius was identified through simulation. Experimental failure analysis <strong>of</strong> capacitor is made by considering two<br />

different types <strong>of</strong> capacitors. Finite element models for the two capacitors are built and the accuracy <strong>of</strong> the models is checked<br />

by comparing the results <strong>of</strong> deterministic vibration analysis with experimental capacitor analysis made using vibration<br />

shaker. Verified and most accurate FE model was selected and simulated to quantify the reliability <strong>of</strong> capacitor by<br />

identifying the most significant parameter that affects the life <strong>of</strong> the capacitor. Sinusoidal vibration pr<strong>of</strong>ile is selected to<br />

input vibration load. Monte Carlo Simulation Technique <strong>of</strong> probabilistic design is selected for the simulation. Results <strong>of</strong><br />

analysis show that; Lead length and lead radius are identified as important factors influencing the natural frequency <strong>of</strong><br />

vibration. Lead radius is identified as significant factor for capacitor leads failure. Best size <strong>of</strong> capacitor lead radius is 0.5<br />

mm +0.1 mm with 20% failure probability, which is acceptable to the company.<br />

Quality improvement case study to identify causes for brake spongy defect and to develop counter measures was carried out<br />

at Toyota Kirloskar Motor, Bidadi. Brake spongy is a s<strong>of</strong>t feeling <strong>of</strong> brake pedal which occurs when there is more brake<br />

pedal free play. To find causes <strong>of</strong> the brake spongy problem, a comprehensive root cause analysis using 5-Why methodology<br />

was adopted. Analyses identified that there were as many as 11 important causes for brake spongy defect in Toyota Innova<br />

vehicles, and details <strong>of</strong> these causes are; tightening defect, more clearance between brake pad and rotor, more clearance<br />

between brake shoe and brake drum, brake and clutch pedals in low position before filling the brake fluid, improper<br />

clamping <strong>of</strong> gun seal packings to the reservoir, damage in gun seal packings <strong>of</strong> brake fluid filling gun, presence <strong>of</strong> moisture<br />

or dust in the brake tube, improper clamping <strong>of</strong> pressure seal clamp between gun to hose joint, blockage <strong>of</strong> vacuum filter,<br />

presence <strong>of</strong> moisture in brake fluid and bad brake hose material. Paper discusses the sources <strong>of</strong> these causes and<br />

Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a realistic option in a number <strong>of</strong> applications, the range and number <strong>of</strong> which are<br />

increasing annually. It is also being considered as the new future interface for allowing humans to communicate with<br />

computers. This is crucial, when designers and industrial engineers are involved in design activity with the help <strong>of</strong><br />

computers. Modern computer-aided design (CAD) systems and s<strong>of</strong>tware tools have played a significant role in improving<br />

the efficiency <strong>of</strong> the overall product design process. However, the impact <strong>of</strong> these technologies is largely restricted to the<br />

detailed modeling and engineering analysis. At the early stages <strong>of</strong> product design the specifications and constraints are not<br />

been fully established. The industrial designers and engineers need the freedom to change and modify the product<br />

configuration. They also need to investigate the mechanical behavior for a wide range <strong>of</strong> alternative solutions. Recent<br />

advancements in high-speed computer hardware and VR technology provide opportunities to carry on design, evaluation<br />

and user training before a project is launched. This paper presents evaluation <strong>of</strong> the concept design and user training in VR<br />

environment. A unique design and simulation is used to illustrate and discusses the role that virtual reality in design,<br />

evaluation and user training.<br />

Manipulators are used for proper alignment <strong>of</strong> slabs and plates before rolling passes begin. Width is a very important<br />

parameter in rolling <strong>of</strong> the plate, so a precise and reliable method should be introduced to measure the width <strong>of</strong> the plate. The<br />

manipulators can be used for the measurement <strong>of</strong> the width with the help <strong>of</strong> a rack and pinion arrangement and an encoderdecoder.<br />

In this paper, a method is suggested for the slab width measurement in the existing layout <strong>of</strong> the plate mill <strong>of</strong> Bhilai<br />

Steel Plant using hydraulic manipulator. A program in C language has also been developed for design <strong>of</strong> manipulator pinion<br />

or assistance in design process for the same. The thermal analysis using Solidworks s<strong>of</strong>tware has been carried for the<br />

manipulator jaw so as to avoid any dimensional distortion <strong>of</strong> jaw due to high temperature <strong>of</strong> slab. This also ensures reliable<br />

measurement.<br />

Disc brake are <strong>of</strong>ten used in automobile transmission system to Stop moving machine. Due to space constraint and<br />

performance requirement, disc brakes have fluctuating load characteristics, resulting in local stress and deflections. Friction<br />

temperature in brake disc can cause material carbonization and debonding. This research paper explains the design and<br />

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model <strong>of</strong> brake disc by which deflections in X, Y, Z direction and Von misses stress can be<br />

calculated by applying boundary conditions. The FEA outcomes are correlated with experimental data. A good agreement,<br />

with 5% discrepancy in the experimental data during the first engagement is obtained. The developed method improves the<br />

understanding <strong>of</strong> the structural failure, modal prediction, operating conditions, and reduces product development time and<br />

cost.<br />

Filter design is the process <strong>of</strong> designing a filter (in the sense in which the term is used in signal processing, statistics, and<br />

applied mathematics), <strong>of</strong>ten a linear shift-invariant filter, that satisfies a set <strong>of</strong> requirements, some <strong>of</strong> which are<br />

contradictory. The purpose is to find a realization <strong>of</strong> the filter that meets each <strong>of</strong> the requirements to a sufficient degree to<br />

make it useful. The filter design process can be described as an optimization problem where each requirement contributes<br />

with a term to an error function which should be minimized. Certain parts <strong>of</strong> the design process can be automated, but<br />

normally an experienced electrical engineer is needed to get a good result.<br />

This paper deals with the design and implementation <strong>of</strong> IIR filter for wireless communication <strong>of</strong> a occupied channel. When a<br />

user <strong>of</strong> mobile occupies a channel, it assigns a range <strong>of</strong> frequencies for the same channel. For this purpose, we have<br />

designed a IIR filter to select a particular frequency range assigned to a particular channel. In our design, we have designed<br />

the appropriate type <strong>of</strong> band pass filter to implement this operation.<br />

With the increasing demand for newer products, subsequent design changes and introduction <strong>of</strong> newer models, such as in<br />

case <strong>of</strong> automobile industry, there is a need <strong>of</strong> quick and reliable method <strong>of</strong> product design and analysis. The finite element<br />

Analysis (FEA) has gained a lot <strong>of</strong> popularity in the present scenario as they can be used for quick design and analysis. But<br />

the FE predictions are <strong>of</strong>ten called into question as they are, at times, in conflict with test results because <strong>of</strong> inaccuracies in<br />

FE models which can arise due to use <strong>of</strong> incorrect modeling <strong>of</strong> boundary conditions, incorrect modeling <strong>of</strong> joints, and<br />

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is the process <strong>of</strong> machining electrically conductive materials by using precisely<br />

controlled sparks that occur between an electrode and a workpiece in the presence <strong>of</strong> a dielectric fluid. Aluminium metal<br />

matrix composites (AMMCs) refer to the class <strong>of</strong> light weight high performance aluminium ceramic material systems. The<br />

reinforcement in AMMCs could be in the form <strong>of</strong> continuous / discontinuous fibres, whiskers or particulates, in volume<br />

fractions ranging from a few percent to 70%. These materials are extensively used in industry. Greater hardness and<br />

reinforcement makes it difficult to machine using traditional techniques, which has impeded the development <strong>of</strong> AMMCs.<br />

These materials can be machined by many non traditional methods like water jet and laser cutting but these processes are<br />

limited to linear cutting only. This paper presents a review <strong>of</strong> research work related to electrical discharge machining<br />

process <strong>of</strong> aluminium metal matrix composites (AMMCs).<br />

Wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) is a spark erosion machining process to cut very hard conductive materials<br />

with the help <strong>of</strong> a wire electrode. High strength low alloy steel (HSLA) is a hard alloy with high hardness and wear resisting<br />

property. The purpose <strong>of</strong> this study is to investigate the effect <strong>of</strong> parameters on total surface roughness for WEDM using<br />

HSLA as work-piece. HSLA used in cars, trucks, cranes, bridges, roller coasters and other structures that are designed to<br />

handle large amounts <strong>of</strong> stress. It is found that total surface roughness (Rz) increases with increase in pulse on time, while it<br />

decreases with decrease in pulse <strong>of</strong>f time, peak current, servo voltage and wire tension. In this research paper, the Response<br />

Surface Methodology (RSM) is used to formulate a mathematical model which correlates the independent process<br />

parameters with the desired surface roughness. The central composite rotatable design has been used to conduct the<br />

experiments.<br />

machine is one <strong>of</strong> the most commonly used machine which is employed in machining <strong>of</strong> conductive metals <strong>of</strong> any hardness<br />

or that are difficult or impossible to cut with traditional methods. WEDM is one <strong>of</strong> the most popular machining methods in<br />

present industry which specializes in cutting complex shapes or geometries. The literature survey has revealed that very<br />

less work has been done in order to achieve optimal levels <strong>of</strong> process parameters for Tool Steel-En31 using Brass wire<br />

This paper emphasizes the significant role <strong>of</strong> Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) to the national economy. Ranges<br />

<strong>of</strong> topics have been covered in this paper: CIM definition, history, organization, and application. Today's industry competes<br />

in a truly international marketplace. Efficient transportation networks have created a “world market” in which we<br />

participate on a daily basis. For any industrial country to compete in this market, it must have companies that provide<br />

economic high-quality products to their customers in a timely manner. The importance <strong>of</strong> integrating product design and<br />

process design to achieve design for production system cannot be overemphasized. However, even once a design is<br />

finalized, manufacturing industries must be willing to accommodate their customers by allowing last-minute engineeringdesign<br />

changes without affecting shipping schedules or altering product quality. Therefore, Most U.S.-based manufacturing<br />

companies look toward CAD/CAM and CIM to provide this flexibility in their manufacturing system. The Indian industry<br />

would have to change from a conventional manufacturing style to computer integrated manufacturing style in order to cope<br />

with the emerging market requirements. The paper discusses productivity improvement by using computer integrated<br />

manufacturing in India.<br />

Hybrid metal matrix composites (MMCs) find diverse applications in many engineering fields. applications <strong>of</strong> these<br />

composite materials are among the most important developments in materials engineering in recent years. Metal matrix<br />

composites have became the necessary materials in various engineering applications like aerospace ,marine, automobile<br />

and turbine-compressor engineering applications, because <strong>of</strong> their light-weight, high strength, stiffness and resistance to<br />

high temperature. MMCs should continue to focus on two important aspects, including improving the properties <strong>of</strong> MMCs<br />

and finding more economical techniques to produce mmcs. Machining is a material removal process and therefore is<br />

important for the final fabrication stage prior to application, consequently the development <strong>of</strong> effective machining methods<br />

leading to a reduction. In overall cost <strong>of</strong> component is one <strong>of</strong> the major challenges yet to be solved. Drill geometry is<br />

considered the most important factor that affects drill performance. A major concern in drilling <strong>of</strong> composite materials is the<br />

delamination that occurs in the exit as well as in the entrance planes. The delamination damage caused by the tool thrust is<br />

known as one <strong>of</strong> the major concerns during the drilling process. This paper discusses the influence <strong>of</strong> cutting parameter on<br />

Thrust force <strong>of</strong> when drilling aluminum alloy reinforced with silicon carbide and graphite hybrid metal matrix composite.<br />

The experiments are conducted to study the effect <strong>of</strong> spindle speeds: 1000, 2000 and 3000 rpm, feed rate: 0.05, 0.10 and<br />

Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is a well known process for machining hard metal alloys and metal matrix<br />

composites. In this paper, four important WEDM parameters namely pulse-on time, pulse-<strong>of</strong>f time, servo voltage and wire<br />

feed rate have been investigated and modelled for machining speed <strong>of</strong> WC-5.3%Co composite during rough cutting<br />

operation on WEDM. Using response surface methodology, face centered central composite design has been adopted to<br />

perform the experiments. Achieving higher machining speed is the main objective <strong>of</strong> rough cutting operation. Therefore,<br />

In present work, an investigation has been carried out on friction stir welding (FSW) on AA1100 aluminium alloy using high<br />

carbon high chromium alloy steel tool. Four types <strong>of</strong> tool pin pr<strong>of</strong>iles namely straight cylindrical, threaded, triangular and<br />

square were investigated. Tool rotation and traverse speeds were kept constant at 1200 rpm and 20mm/min while shape <strong>of</strong><br />

the tool and number <strong>of</strong> passes were two variables. Results show that maximum tensile strength occurs across the weld zone<br />

as compared to the parent material. Threaded tool pin pr<strong>of</strong>ile exhibited superior tensile properties compared to other joints,<br />

irrespective <strong>of</strong> tool rotational speed in double pass. The joints fabricated by single pass have shown lower tensile strength<br />

and also percentage <strong>of</strong> elongation compared to the joints fabricated by double pass and this trend is common for all the tool<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>iles.<br />

This paper is about the study <strong>of</strong> various mechanical properties <strong>of</strong> fiber reinforced cast iron by employing the gas metal arc<br />

welding technique. The welding joints were assessed by measuring the tensile strength. Some specimens were preheated to<br />

275° C for 8 minute and their results were compared with those <strong>of</strong> unpreheated specimens. The weld joints were cooled in air<br />

and sand thus giving various cooling rates leading to different mechanical properties. The higher cooling rate produces<br />

joints <strong>of</strong> higher strength and hardness with lower elongation. Preheating improves the strength and elongation and lowers<br />

the hardness. This paper shows the properties <strong>of</strong> cast iron along with various important parameters.<br />

The lightweight construction philosophy is based on the principle <strong>of</strong> making the best possible use <strong>of</strong> the material. Whenever<br />

a single material does not satisfy the demands <strong>of</strong> a specific application, compound structures may generate a solution.<br />

Especially in lightweight construction, a multi-material-mix can provide ideal specific properties that are suitable for the<br />

conditions to which a part is subjected. Typically such combinations <strong>of</strong> dissimilar materials provide desired properties in<br />

various areas <strong>of</strong> the single part. Compound casting is a process, which yields such multimaterial components. The technique<br />

is not much old and a few researchers have worked on it. However, the paper presents a recent reviews <strong>of</strong> literature on<br />

compound casting. In this paper, the literature on compound casting is reviewed in a way that would help researchers,<br />

academicians and practitioners to take a closer look at the growth, development and applicability <strong>of</strong> this technique. The<br />

review aims at providing an insight into the compound casting process backgrounds and shows the great potential for further<br />

investigations and innovation in the field. The survey <strong>of</strong> existing works has revealed several gaps in the fields <strong>of</strong> substrate<br />

pretreatments, continuous flow behavior <strong>of</strong> metal during the process, correlation between mechanical and geometrical part<br />

properties, and industrial application <strong>of</strong> some advanced processes.<br />

Aluminium alloys have gathered wide acceptance in the fabrication <strong>of</strong> light weight structures requiring a high strength-toweight<br />

ratio. Compared to many fusion welding processes that are routinely used for joining structural aluminium alloys,<br />

friction stir welding (FSW) process is an emerging solid state joining process in which the material that is being welded does<br />

not melt and recast. The welding parameters and the tool pin pr<strong>of</strong>ile play a major role in deciding the weld quality. In this<br />

paper an attempt has been made to understand the influences <strong>of</strong> rotational speed, welding speed and pin shoulder diameter <strong>of</strong><br />

the tool on friction stir processed (FSP) zone formation in AA1200 aluminium alloy. Two different tool shoulder diameters (<br />

The manual design <strong>of</strong> any type <strong>of</strong> drawing die is complicated and tedious procedure, In spite <strong>of</strong> all precautionary measures<br />

there are several chances <strong>of</strong> denting, cracking and wrinkling which needs to be rectified. As the design and development <strong>of</strong><br />

sheet metal deep drawn die is a comprehensive technique which needs accuracy in the apprehension <strong>of</strong> working for high<br />

order and its rectification in forming process. The appearance <strong>of</strong> dimensional deviations <strong>of</strong> shape and position, <strong>of</strong> the defects<br />

in the metal sheets that have been subjected to a cold plastic deformation process, represents a critical problem for the<br />

specific industry, especially for the mass production, like the machine manufacturing industry. Thus, there arises the need<br />

for development <strong>of</strong> a system for manufacturing wrinkle free surface <strong>of</strong> deep drawn components. The complex forces act on<br />

the sheet metal blank during drawing are so unpredictable that they are difficult to determine manually and mathematically.<br />

These forces cause wrinkles and other defects on the surface <strong>of</strong> the wall <strong>of</strong> component. The aim <strong>of</strong> this publication is to<br />

present the principal aspects and investigation that effect wrinkling. Firstly component 3D-modeled in CATIA for analyzing<br />

for detecting wrinkle prone area by using fast form s<strong>of</strong>tware. The input to s<strong>of</strong>tware comprises <strong>of</strong> initial graphics exchange<br />

system .Cold rolled extra deep drawing quality material <strong>of</strong> sheet metal component has been utilize. The out put in form <strong>of</strong><br />

results received regarding wrinkle prone area are found in closed agreement matching with the practical results. One can<br />

therefore easily predict and detect the tendency <strong>of</strong> expected wrinkle formation and stress distribution in any drawn<br />

component. Some methods for preventing wrinkling in deep drawn part are also suggested.<br />

Today's manufacturing enterprise, whether it produces consumer goods or weapons systems, must <strong>of</strong>ten juggle a range <strong>of</strong><br />

conflicting demands. Smaller lot sizes, increased product flexibility, higher product quality, decreased delivery time, and<br />

smaller pr<strong>of</strong>it margins are typical <strong>of</strong> the ambitious goals in many such organizations. Through it all, the enterprise must<br />

consistently aim for the five R's-- produce the right product, with the right quality, in the right quantity, at the right price, and<br />

at the right time-- and it must do more than satisfy its customers; it must delight them. Correct and timely information is key<br />

to meeting these goals, and information technology-- database management systems, enterprise resource planning systems,<br />

and simulation and computer-aided design tools-- has become indispensable to most manufacturing enterprises. Although<br />

its role in manufacturing has been more to support processes, IT is evolving to become a catalyst for process and product<br />

In this paper an attempt is made to review the literature on Optimization <strong>of</strong> process parameters <strong>of</strong> advanced machining<br />

processes. Generally, unconventional or advanced machining processes (AMPs) are used only when no other traditional<br />

machining process can meet the necessary requirements efficiently and economically because use <strong>of</strong> most <strong>of</strong> AMPs incurs<br />

relatively higher initial investment, maintenance, operating, and tooling costs. Therefore, optimum choice <strong>of</strong> the process<br />

Machining operations plays the key role in the manufacturing industry since the industrial revolution. Manufacturing<br />

industries strive to achieve minimum cost <strong>of</strong> production with a maximum production rate. Machinability is one <strong>of</strong> the<br />

important parameter that is related to all phases <strong>of</strong> manufacturing. Machinability is influenced by a number <strong>of</strong> variables,<br />

such as the inherent properties or characteristics <strong>of</strong> the work materials, cutting tool material, tool geometry, the nature <strong>of</strong> tool<br />

engagement with the work, cutting conditions, type <strong>of</strong> cutting, cutting fluid, and machine tool rigidity and its capacity. Tool<br />

life is affected by machinability <strong>of</strong> the material at different speeds and temperatures. Worldwide research is going on to<br />

improve the machinability <strong>of</strong> the existing materials or to develop new materials with similar properties and improved<br />

machinability. Present work is carried out to improve the machinability <strong>of</strong> an aluminium based alloy (Al-Fe-Si) with an aim<br />

to optimize the effecting parameters. The surface roughness and machinability <strong>of</strong> the material with variation <strong>of</strong> ferrous<br />

percentage is tested and the results are produced.<br />

Machining <strong>of</strong> borosilicate glass is a challenging task for manufacturing engineers from the quality and accuracy point <strong>of</strong><br />

view. Traveling Wire Electro-Chemical Spark Machining (TW-ECSM) is an emerging technique in the field <strong>of</strong> nonconventional<br />

machining to machine electrically non-conductive materials. It is a hybrid process which combines features <strong>of</strong><br />

Electro Chemical Machining (ECM) and Wire Electro Discharge Machining (WEDM). An experimental setup has been<br />

developed and employed for machining <strong>of</strong> borosilicate glass which was used as workpiece. In the present paper only the<br />

machining characteristics <strong>of</strong> non-conductive material is reported. Experiments were also conducted to analysis the effects <strong>of</strong><br />

supply voltage, pulse on-time and electrolyte concentration on the material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness (Ra).<br />

Material removal rate and surface roughness are found to increase with increase in supply voltage and pulse on-time.<br />

But MRR and Ra increase with increase in electrolyte concentration at certain value (20%), beyond that value it decreases.<br />

The main objective <strong>of</strong> present work was to study the micro-structural changes due to buttering deposit on AISI 1020 steel for<br />

dissimilar metal joint <strong>of</strong> AISI 1020 steel to SS 304 steel. Dissimilar metal joints are extensively used in many industrial<br />

applications but due to weldability related issues, they cannot perform satisfactory life. The difference in chemical<br />

composition, coefficient <strong>of</strong> thermal expansion and mechanical properties affects the weldability <strong>of</strong> the joint. For<br />

maintaining elemental compatibility, buttering technique is <strong>of</strong>ten used for such joint. It is quite difficult to select the<br />

consumables for the buttering layers, which will satisfy the requirement <strong>of</strong> desirable chemical composition. Carbon<br />

migration is one <strong>of</strong> the major causes for buttering layer deposits. Nickel act as a barrier for carbon migration, so paste<br />

technique was used to deposit the buttering layer. The paste was prepared with Nickel powder, ferro-vanadium and ferrotitanium<br />

powders and deposited using Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding and Shielded Metal Arc (SMAW) welding.<br />

Subsequent layer deposit was made using SMAW using Inconel 182 consumables. Weld joint was prepared between said<br />

base metals using SMAW process and Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding. Micro-structural analysis and micro-hardness<br />

analysis were carried out. Nickel rich paste layer deposited using TIG observed micro-cracks or solidification cracks. When<br />

deposited with SMAW, due to dilution effect, nickel composition reduced and ferrite content changes in buttering layer<br />

hence no any cracks observed. Nickel paste with controlled parameters with direct deposit using SMAW can be successfully<br />

applied for such dissimilar metal joints.<br />

The paper deals with microstructure and mechanical properties <strong>of</strong> unmodified Al-2Fe-1V-1Si and modification with 1%<br />

(Ni-20Mg) Al-2Fe-1V-1Si alloys. The alloys were prepared in a resistance heating furnace and cast in a permanent mould to<br />

prepare the samples. Metallographic sample were prepared and microstructure was recorded by optical microscope and<br />

SEM. The microstructure <strong>of</strong> Al-2Fe-1V-1Si alloy shows primary and intermetallic inerdendritic phases are present. The<br />

melt is treated with Ni-Mg master alloy in order to change the morphology, size and distribution <strong>of</strong> the primary as well as<br />

interdendritic phases. By observing the microstructure <strong>of</strong> the alloys, it has been seen that with addition <strong>of</strong> Ni-Mg master<br />

Heat treatment process like case carburizing & nitriding and cold working process like shot peening are the most widely<br />

used processes for surface hardening <strong>of</strong> welded components used in structures, automobiles, heavy duty machines, etc. In<br />

case carburizing and nitriding <strong>of</strong> steel components the composition <strong>of</strong> the surface changes by the diffusion <strong>of</strong> carbon and<br />

nitrogen respectively and results in a hard outer surface with good wear resistance properties. Similarly shot peening<br />

improves the surface characteristics by deforming the surface layer by the shots. In the present paper a controlled nitriding,<br />

case carburizing and shot peening processes are discussed for welded 304L austenitic stainless steel. There impact is<br />

determined on the surface hardness and corrosion resistance <strong>of</strong> the welded joint. Vickers' hardness and salt spray test were<br />

carried out for the above-mentioned welded stainless steels before and after diffusion hardening.<br />

Submerged arc welding (SAW), a fusion joining process is known for its high deposition capabilities. This process is useful<br />

in joining thick sections used in various industries. High deposition rates are obtained because high welding current level<br />

can be used with this process. Besides joining, SAW is also used for surfacing applications. Heat Affected Zone (HAZ)<br />

produced within the base metal and around the fused metal as a result <strong>of</strong> large heat input is <strong>of</strong> big concern since it affects the<br />

performance <strong>of</strong> welded/surfaced structure in service due to metallurgical changes in the base metal /substrate. This work<br />

was carried out to investigate the effect <strong>of</strong> polarity and other SAW parameters on HAZ size. Empirical models have been<br />

Hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process may be defined as a metal forming technology using hydraulic or fluid pressure to deform the tubes<br />

and sheet. Increasing use <strong>of</strong> hydr<strong>of</strong>orming in automotive applications requires intensive research and development on all<br />

aspects <strong>of</strong> this relatively new technology to satisfy an ever-increasing demand by the industry. Tube hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process<br />

and sheet hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process are some variations <strong>of</strong> hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process. Tube hydr<strong>of</strong>orming is one <strong>of</strong> the most<br />

popular unconventional metal forming processes which is widely used to form various tubular components. By this process,<br />

tubes are formed into different shapes using internal pressure and axial compressive loads simultaneously to force a tubular<br />

blank to conform to the shape <strong>of</strong> a given die cavity. Initially, Factors affecting the output <strong>of</strong> the process are reviewed in the<br />

paper. Moreover, common types <strong>of</strong> failure <strong>of</strong> the process are introduced and improvements to avoid them are also<br />

mentioned. Review <strong>of</strong> sheet hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process is also done. Comparison <strong>of</strong> conventional deep drawing process and<br />

deep drawing process with hydr<strong>of</strong>orming process is done. S-shape rail is simulated in FORGE 2011.Pure Aluminium is used<br />

The key to achieve good surface integrity in the workpiece due to Electro-chemical spark machining (ECSM ) process,<br />

which is hybrid <strong>of</strong> ECM and EDM, is by preventing the excessive temperature and thermal stress generated during the<br />

process. The present work involves in the development <strong>of</strong> a simulation model to simulate the complex ECSM process<br />

which consists <strong>of</strong> simulation <strong>of</strong> each constituent process namely EDM and ECM for temperature and thermal stress<br />

distribution. In order to simulate the realistic complex conditions the three dimensional FEM is used in the process <strong>of</strong><br />

development <strong>of</strong> the simulation model accounting the random occurrence <strong>of</strong> the spark during EDM. It is observed that the<br />

spark contributes primarily to the temperature and tensile thermal stresses are created near the top surface <strong>of</strong> the workpiece.<br />

Thermal stress distribution holds the vital information about the surface integrity and surface quality.<br />

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a non-traditional concept <strong>of</strong> machining which has been widely used to produce<br />

dies and molds. It is also used for finishing parts for aerospace and automotive industry and surgical components Electrical<br />

discharge machining (EDM) is one <strong>of</strong> the earliest non-traditional machining processes. EDM process is based on<br />

thermoelectric energy between the work piece and an electrode. A pulse discharge occurs in a small gap between the work<br />

piece and the electrode and removes the unwanted material from the parent metal through melting and vaporising. The<br />

electrode and the work piece must have electrical conductivity in order to generate the spark.<br />

early so that the basic conceptual design can be altered before actual physical production commences. The amount <strong>of</strong> money<br />

that can be saved by doing this correctly has proven to be significant and is generally the deciding factor for companies<br />

moving to a concurrent design framework.<br />

Glass making industry is a very hazardous industry in which fatal and non-fatal occupational injuries occur most frequently<br />

due to its unique nature. It is characterised by continual changes, use <strong>of</strong> many different resources, poor working conditions,<br />

tough environments (ex-noise, direct exposure to heat, vibration, dust etc.). The GMI is plagued by occupational risky<br />

situations and poor working conditions. Occupational health is concerned with those factors in the work environment which<br />

can give rise to ill-health in exposed workers. The study <strong>of</strong> Ergonomics provides the information <strong>of</strong> matching the man –<br />

machine interaction and work place design. This study aimed to present an overview <strong>of</strong> the situation <strong>of</strong> occupational health<br />

in glass making industry to gain information related to welfare and health facilities, health education, accident statistics,<br />

occupational health and safety activities.<br />

The paper is structured as follows- The first section introduces the objective <strong>of</strong> this work. The second section represents the<br />

work methodology carried out in the Glass Making Industry. The third presents the<br />

Literature Survey. The fourth presents an overview <strong>of</strong> the problem formulation <strong>of</strong> traditional glass making method. The<br />

fifth section gives the Data Analysis. Finally, the sixth section presents the conclusions.<br />

The Earnings <strong>of</strong> the glass making workers is calculated as per the jobs specified to them. In particular eight type <strong>of</strong> jobs,<br />

usually done by glass making workers, are considered. Each job has its specific earnings. Usually high earning jobs are very<br />

tedious to perform. Combining jobs is found to be a way <strong>of</strong> reducing OHH and yet maintaining the good earnings. One<br />

severe job (firing-work) is combined with the rest <strong>of</strong> three jobs sequentially resulting in three job combinations Workers<br />

performing such jobs suffer from severe stresses and other health problems. NSGA-II is used to search for those solution<br />

points which would simultaneously minimize the occupational health hazards and maximize the earnings.<br />

Measurement <strong>of</strong> energy expenditure <strong>of</strong> the worker during manual material handling (MMH) task depends upon various<br />

parameters that can be used to assign the task to particular worker. In this study three important variables related to MMH<br />

task i.e. Worker's Age, Work Time Duration and Work Place Temperature at three different levels were analyzed using<br />

Taguchi L9 orthogonal array. One response i.e. worker's Heart Rate (HR)) during the each trail <strong>of</strong> manual material handling<br />

(MMH) task was measured. For the optimization <strong>of</strong> response the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio was obtain for each trial. The<br />

analysis <strong>of</strong> S/N ratio and raw data was done by using analysis <strong>of</strong> variance (ANOVA) to identify the optimal condition in<br />

which response was optimized. Results shows that the Worker Age was found to be the most significant factor and the Work<br />

Time Duration was found to be least significant factor for heart rate response. The percentage contributions <strong>of</strong> Worker Age,<br />

Work Time Duration and Workplace Temperature were 73.51%, 3.32% and 18.46% respectively for HR.<br />

The targets <strong>of</strong> an increased productivity, operational availability and better overall efficiency, on the production lines are the<br />

most important goals for almost all manufacturing organizations. The specific objectives <strong>of</strong> this case study are firstly to<br />

reduce setup time and secondly, reduction in waiting time on the line with focuses on economic lot size and buffer stock.<br />

Design for production (DFP) is a tool to identify the losses in the line and iron out these losses in a systematic way to achieve<br />

improved throughput time, higher efficiency, higher productivity and improved manufacturing cost. The reduction in<br />

throughput time gives a base <strong>of</strong> 44% increase in production (Refer Sec. 4.0) i.e. present average production quantity <strong>of</strong><br />

37805 Nos. gets increased to 54440 Nos. with defining buffer stock and optimal lot size.<br />

The objective <strong>of</strong> the study is to optimize the process by applying the Taguchi method with orthogonal array robust design.<br />

Taguchi Parameter Design is a powerful and efficient method for optimizing the process, quality and performance output <strong>of</strong><br />

manufacturing processes, thus a powerful tool for meeting this challenge. Off-line quality control is considered to be an<br />

effective approach to improve product quality at a relatively low cost. The Taguchi method is one <strong>of</strong> the conventional<br />

approaches for this purpose. This procedure eliminates the need for repeated experiments, time and conserves the material<br />

by the conventional procedure. Optimization <strong>of</strong> process parameters is done to have great control over quality, productivity<br />

and cost aspects <strong>of</strong> the process. Off-line quality control is considered to be an effective approach to improve product quality<br />

at a relatively low cost. The Taguchi method is a powerful tool for designing high quality systems. The approach based on<br />

Taguchi method, the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and the analysis <strong>of</strong> variance (ANOVA) is employed to study the<br />

performance characteristics.<br />

Demanding competition in today's global markets, introduction <strong>of</strong> products with short life cycles, and the discriminating<br />

expectations <strong>of</strong> customers have forced business enterprises to invest in, and focus attention on their supply chains. Supply<br />

chain management has increasingly become an inevitable challenge to most companies to be continuously survived and<br />

prospered in the global chain-based competitive environment. The current challenges <strong>of</strong> the Indian automotive world, their<br />

implications on supply chain are summarized and analyzed in this paper. In this competitive era <strong>of</strong> 'LPG' i.e. Liberalization,<br />

Privatization and Globalization, modern marketing systems, introduction <strong>of</strong> products with short life cycles, and the<br />

discriminating expectations <strong>of</strong> customers have enforced business enterprises to invest in and focus attention on their Supply<br />

Chains (SCs) in order to meet out the level <strong>of</strong> customer's satisfaction and to survive in the competitive market. In fact, many<br />

<strong>of</strong> trends in the auto industry are reinforcing the need to redefine supply chain strategies layouts, and operations etc. Many<br />

manufacturing operations are designed to maximize throughput and lower costs with modest considerations for the crash on<br />

inventory levels and distribution capabilities. The new age customers want customized products according to their tastes<br />

like automobile color, interior, audio system, etc. This customer behavior implies that dealers and manufacturers have to<br />

maintain adequate inventory to satisfy the customer. To improve pr<strong>of</strong>itability and efficiency, automotive players are seeking<br />

ways to achieve operational excellence, reduce operating cost and enhance customer service through efficient supply chain<br />

management.<br />

In a pursuit <strong>of</strong> excellence in technical education, it is increasingly important to identify critical factors affecting it. The<br />

technical education system in an attempt to react to the demands and ever increasing pressures from its stakeholders, finds<br />

itself in a market-oriented environment, with internal and external customers; wherein, “satisfying the customer”, is the rule<br />

for survival in the long run.With the change <strong>of</strong> education policy in 1991, more and more technical institutions are being set<br />

up in India. Some <strong>of</strong> these institutions are providing quality education, but others are merely concentrating on quantity.<br />

Because <strong>of</strong> this stake holders are in a state <strong>of</strong> confusion about the decision to select the best institute for their higher study.<br />

Although various agencies including print media are providing ranking <strong>of</strong> these institutions every year, but these seems to be<br />

contradictory and biased. In this paper, the authors have made an endeavor to find the critical factors for technical institution<br />

evaluation from literature survey. An Analytical Network Process (ANP) approach has been applied to find the intensity <strong>of</strong><br />

the factors for evaluation. This will not only help the stake holders in taking right decision but will also help the management<br />

<strong>of</strong> institutions in benchmarking for identifying the most important critical areas to improve upon. This will in turn help<br />

Indian economy.<br />

Over the past decades there had been a rapid change in the population <strong>of</strong> Ghaziabad (U.P.). This has lead to a significant<br />

change in the traffic density in the commercially developed cities. This traffic growth has made the noise level on the roads<br />

beyond the prescribed limits. This paper is an attempt for the measurements <strong>of</strong> noise levels under traffic conditions over<br />

different time span in Ghaziabad region, to estimate, whether these levels exceeds permissible levels, (65 dB(A))<br />

prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) New Delhi, the variation in discomfort <strong>of</strong> road traffic Police<br />

constable was assessed by means <strong>of</strong> a questionnaire. Finally results reveal that higher road traffic noise levels led to the<br />

increase <strong>of</strong> discomfort <strong>of</strong> traffic Police Constable.<br />

In inventory control phenomena, holding cost is an integral part <strong>of</strong> total cost <strong>of</strong> every inventory system. This is determined<br />

from the investment in physical stocks and storage facilities for items during a cycle. In most <strong>of</strong> the inventory research<br />

papers with power demand pattern, holding cost rate per unit time for perishable inventory is assumed as constant. However,<br />

this is not necessarily the case when items in stock are decaying. In the present work, paying better attention on the holding<br />

cost, we present a deteriorating inventory model in which the unit holding cost is based on the deterioration <strong>of</strong> the inventory<br />

with the time the item is in stock. The deterioration is assumed Weibull distributive. The power pattern <strong>of</strong> demand is<br />

considered in this paper. Shortages are allowed and partial backlogged. The partial backlogging rate is a continuous inverse<br />

function <strong>of</strong> waiting time in purchasing the item during stock out period. By using classical optimization technique,<br />

conditions for uniquely existence <strong>of</strong> global minimum value <strong>of</strong> the average total cost per unit time are discussed. Numerical<br />

illustration and sensitivity analysis are presented.<br />

Lean is a management methodology that provides the perfect medicine for surviving and thriving during bleak trading<br />

conditions as well as optimizing shrunken budgets. Japan in 1950s.in a country rebuilding its shattered post war economy,<br />

the Toyota motor company developed a production system that has underpinned the company's success and given rise to the<br />

lean movement. Toyota production system rejected the belief that productivity could be raised by working longer, harder<br />

and faster and presented the just in time alternative. This focused on delivery the right products to the right place at the right<br />

time anything not involved in achieving that objective was deemed suspect waste.<br />

The purpose <strong>of</strong> this paper is to discuss a survival strategy for industry in tough time by means <strong>of</strong> lean principles and<br />

philosophies. Tough time is the time for industries to follow lean guidelines and to look in to their business chain from raw<br />

material to end customer in order to remove all types <strong>of</strong> waste. The paper provides some real help as to how to survive in<br />

recession as there is little published research on this topic. This paper addresses a framework for studying lean thinking, as<br />

well as principles <strong>of</strong> lean production, strategy for lean implementation and the 8 types <strong>of</strong> waste.<br />

The management <strong>of</strong> technology is acquiring a distinctive character and increasingly being recognized as an activity that<br />

complements other managerial functions in providing the necessary inputs to the decision-making process. Few factors<br />

which are helpers in the implementation <strong>of</strong> technology management which are known as enablers. The objective <strong>of</strong> this<br />

paper is to developed the relationships among the identified TM enablers. Further, this paper is also helpful to understand<br />

mutual influence <strong>of</strong> enablers and identify those enablers which support other enablers (driving enabler) and also those<br />

enablers which are most influenced by other enablers(dependent enabler ). The interpretive structure modeling (ISM)<br />

methodology is used to evolve mutual relationship among these enablers. TM enablers have been classified, based on their<br />

driving power and dependence power.<br />

Mahindra Reva Electric Vehicles Pvt Ltd has established new assembly line to assemble Electric Car. The company has<br />

adopted a new concept <strong>of</strong> bonding methodology for the assembly <strong>of</strong> 'Body Side Panel' onto the chassis <strong>of</strong> Reva NXR vehicle<br />

at Stage 15, for this a special Bonding Fixture is used. To establish the new Time Standards for assembly activities <strong>of</strong> fixing<br />

Body Side Panel the 'Maynard Operation Sequence Technique (MOST)' is used. For each assembly processes the tools<br />

description, process description and existing MOST sheets were studied which provided detailed information about all the<br />

movements <strong>of</strong> assembly activities. It was identified that many movements <strong>of</strong> assembly activities were taking more time than<br />

required, using MOST, movements <strong>of</strong> some activities were modified and few were eliminated resulting in reduction <strong>of</strong> 41%<br />

in assembly time. In addition necessary changes in workplace were made which reduced the stress creating unproductive<br />

movements.<br />

Today, the customer demands a lot <strong>of</strong> flexibility to reconfigure operations for new challenges. As per the latest<br />

manufacturing, there are many flexible techniques. But with this flexibility, quality <strong>of</strong> product is also required which comes<br />

out by the JIT implementation. This paper studies out the pros, cons, applications <strong>of</strong> FMS, RMS and also benefist <strong>of</strong> using<br />

the JIT in manufacturing. The latest inversions in reconfigurable manufacturing and FMS, affects our way <strong>of</strong> working. The<br />

paper is concluded with a present and future study on flexible and reconfigurable manufacturing system by implementing <strong>of</strong><br />

JIT in these systems. JIT stands for producing necessary quantities at the necessary time. The ultimate aim <strong>of</strong> JIT is to<br />

concentrate on lot less, repetitive manufacturing, with only one unit <strong>of</strong> work in process and no stock <strong>of</strong> finished goods<br />

inventories with FMS and RMS. In this paper, we focus on the way <strong>of</strong> manufacturing system by controlling with the help <strong>of</strong><br />

Just-In-Time (JIT) control processes. We implement the JIT for better control.<br />

Modern trends like nano technology, computer aided manufacturing, spacecraft to Mars etc. seem interesting but have failed<br />

to solve unemployment, mental stresses, food and social problems that have sprung from industrialisation. Green<br />

technology is heard <strong>of</strong>, but global warming continues. In spite <strong>of</strong> more efficient combustion systems and new sources <strong>of</strong><br />

energy, the energy crisis is spiralling. New management skills are being developed to manage resources in industries but<br />

vast natural resources like Yamuna's mineral water are unavailable. The solution lies right in the vedic texts. The alternate<br />

technologies, that can generate employment, that are environmental friendly and sustainable and at the same time help in<br />

space exploration and solve most <strong>of</strong> the above problems, have been discussed in light <strong>of</strong> the ancient Sanskrit literature on<br />

science and engineering. But this is for people who have human and pr<strong>of</strong>essional ethics. Some universal values have been<br />

revealed from the vedic texts on code <strong>of</strong> conduct.<br />

In this paper we are simulating a three-stage supply chain that is based on the Stock-to-Demand inventory type. The aim <strong>of</strong><br />

the simulation is to investigate the well-known phenomenon <strong>of</strong> the bullwhip effect, and identify the parameters that affect it.<br />

To investigate and measure this impact, a simulation model is developed using Arena 11 s<strong>of</strong>t-ware package for a three-stage<br />

supply chain, consisting <strong>of</strong> a single retailer, wholesaler, and a distributor. Since the bullwhip effect is based on an interrelated<br />

network <strong>of</strong> parameters, the model will be changed to affect the change in these parameters on the variance amplification <strong>of</strong><br />

orders. It has been observed that how lack <strong>of</strong> information, lack <strong>of</strong> transparency throughout the supply chain and a disconnect<br />

between production and real-time supply chain information result in increasing lost sales, bad customer service, high<br />

Rapid technology advances in turbulent Indian business environment have shortened the lifecycle <strong>of</strong> white goods, resulting<br />

in the increasing number <strong>of</strong> discarded products in recent years. Due to the growing environmental concerns, several state<br />

governments have passed new regulations in order to reduce the amount <strong>of</strong> waste stream generated by mass consumption <strong>of</strong><br />

the products in the society, to divert the discarded/End-<strong>of</strong> –Life (EOL) products from landfills, and to dispose the retired<br />

electronic & mechanical assembly based products properly. As a result, an effective reverse logistics infrastructure is<br />

required to support the product recovery activities. In this research, a noble approach for designing reverse logistics<br />

infrastructure by private-government partnership model is presented. Finally, discussion, recommendation and insight<br />

information in operating reverse logistics real business environment is analyzed and provided.<br />

To attain flexibility and shorter lead times, industries are attaining Advanced Manufacturing Technologies (AMT). These<br />

technologies although provide many benefits but involve large cost and complex implementation process. Organisations are<br />

unaware <strong>of</strong> the strategies to implement AMT. It would be beneficial for the organisations to know the intensity <strong>of</strong> critical<br />

factors affecting the AMT implementation process. In the present work, an endeavour has been made to find the intensity <strong>of</strong><br />

critical factors affecting the AMT using Analytical Network Process (ANP). ANP allows interdependencies and feedback<br />

within and between clusters <strong>of</strong> factors. ANP is the generalized form <strong>of</strong> AHP. A group <strong>of</strong> experts were consulted to establish<br />

The fundamentals <strong>of</strong> brick manufacturing have not changed over time. However, technological advancements have made<br />

contemporary brick plants substantially more efficient and have improved the overall quality <strong>of</strong> the products. A more<br />

complete knowledge <strong>of</strong> raw materials and their properties, better control <strong>of</strong> firing, improved kiln designs and more<br />

advanced mechanization have all contributed to advancing the brick industry.. Since the repetitive production <strong>of</strong> bricks<br />

meeting standards is very demanding in the industry, the implementation <strong>of</strong> cyclic control on the brick kiln set-up has<br />

naturally become an important objective for researchers. In this paper, a similar kind <strong>of</strong> work has been presented with the<br />

objective <strong>of</strong> reducing the no. <strong>of</strong> defects that were caused due to various reasons in a Brick Kiln set up. The purpose <strong>of</strong> this<br />

research is to study quality related problems while producing building product and to improve the quality <strong>of</strong> the product<br />

using Six Sigma methodologies in a Brick Kiln Industry. This research paper aims at using a case study approach to show<br />

how Six Sigma methodologies can be used in order to improve the quality <strong>of</strong> Bricks in a Kiln. The variables which were<br />

affecting the production quality were sorted out and consistently the defect level was reduced by using DMAIC principle <strong>of</strong><br />

This paper reviews the application <strong>of</strong> OR to financial markets. After considering reasons for the attractiveness <strong>of</strong> general<br />

finance problems to OR researchers. The main types <strong>of</strong> financial market problem amenable to OR are identified, and some<br />

<strong>of</strong> the many problems solved using OR are documented. While mathematical programming is the most widely applied<br />

technique, and other simulation methods are increasingly widely used. OR now plays an important role in the operation <strong>of</strong><br />

financial markets and this importance is likely to increase, creating the opportunity for OR (and operations researchers) to<br />

play an even greater role.<br />

In recent years there has been an appalling rate <strong>of</strong> depletion <strong>of</strong> natural resources due to an ever-increasing number <strong>of</strong> goods<br />

manufactured to satisfy human needs. There is intense pressure from government regulatory acts and consumers on the<br />

manufactures to become environmentally friendly. Green Manufacturing has emerged as a key approach for industries<br />

seeking to become environmentally friendly. This study reviewed various literatures to explore the interrelationships<br />

between environmental issues and manufacturing strategy. This paper identifies various issues involved in enhancing ecoefficiency<br />

<strong>of</strong> a manufacturing system<br />

Just in-time (JIT) the formalized process <strong>of</strong> waste reduction, has achieved a strong foothold in the manufacturing sector. The<br />

service sector, however, has not been as quick to recognize the benefits <strong>of</strong> JIT. Services are much like manufacturing in that<br />

both employ processes that add value to the basic inputs used to create the end product. JIT focuses on the process, not the<br />

product. It can, therefore, be applied to any process within manufacturing or service operations. Cost, quality, patient<br />

satisfaction etc. are some important issues facing service sector. Service sector are searching continuously for innovative<br />

ways to contain costs without sacrificing quality and meet the customer needs. This paper provides a review for applying JIT<br />

processes in the service sector, with the goal <strong>of</strong> investigating how JIT principles can be implemented in services.<br />

Keywords : Just-in-Time (JIT), kanban, quality, cost, service sector.<br />

Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are adaptive heuristic search algorithm premised on the evolutionary ideas <strong>of</strong> natural selection<br />

and genetic. The basic concept <strong>of</strong> GAs is designed to simulate processes in natural system necessary for evolution,<br />

specifically those that follow the principles first laid down by Charles Darwin <strong>of</strong> survival <strong>of</strong> the fittest. As such they<br />

represent an intelligent exploitation <strong>of</strong> a random search within a defined search space to solve a problem.<br />

First pioneered by John Holland in the 60s, Genetic Algorithms has been widely studied, experimented and applied in many<br />

fields in engineering worlds. Not only does GAs provide an alternative method to solving problem, it consistently<br />

outperforms other traditional methods in most <strong>of</strong> the problems link. Many <strong>of</strong> the real world problems involved finding<br />

optimal parameters, which might prove difficult for traditional methods but ideal for GAs. However, because <strong>of</strong> its<br />

outstanding performance in optimization, GAs has been wrongly regarded as a function optimizer. In fact, there are many<br />

Today's competitive environment &changing economy has forced organizations to consider and implement a variety <strong>of</strong><br />

innovative management philosophies and techniques. One technique is benchmarking which has attracted considerable<br />

attention for its effectiveness. Benchmarking is a very versatile tool that can be applied in a variety <strong>of</strong> ways to meet a range <strong>of</strong><br />

requirements for improvement. Xerox and Kodak were the main organizations who describe this technique briefly.<br />

Furthermore world class companies like IBM, Ford Motor Company and Weyerhaeuser etc.use this technique regularyl.<br />

The Xerox benchmarking methodology was a ten-step process & Kodak uses a six-step benchmarking process. A large<br />

number <strong>of</strong> publications by various authors reflect the interest in this technique. In the past, many reviews <strong>of</strong> literature on<br />

benchmarking have been done by many authors. In this paper, the authors have reviewed the benchmarking literature in a<br />

way that would help researchers, to take a closer look at the growth, & applicability <strong>of</strong> this technique. There are more than<br />

300 articles on the benchmarking topic published in the last 12 years, as revealed in this literature review. Considering the<br />

number <strong>of</strong> publication,s it can be said that the benchmarking technique has a steady growth.<br />

In today's cut-throat competition, individual firm cannot compete as an independent entity rather they have to work as an<br />

integral part <strong>of</strong> supply chain links. Today most <strong>of</strong> the organizations are seeking for close association in their upstream and<br />

downstream for maximizing their supply chain efficiency, their pr<strong>of</strong>it and reduce lead time. The key to sustainable<br />

competitive advantage, in this competitive era, lies in delivering high quality service and that will result high customer<br />

satisfaction and ultimately customer delight.<br />

Keywords: Service quality in supply chain (SQSC), Distributor service quality (DSQ), Retailer service quality (RSQ),<br />
