Parametric analysis of control parameters for investigating the machinability of inconel 718 using ceramic inserts of round type
Inconel 718 is a nickel-chromium based super alloy and has high corrosion and thermal resistance, high hardness, and high thermal strength at elevated temperatures which makes it difficult to cut. Due to these mechanical properties, it is being used in toughest conditions and hence the tool life is extremely short. This hard to cut metallic alloy has a wide scope in the field of bio medical industry, aerospace industry, bearing industry, steam turbine and nuclear applications and the demand has rapidly been increased in the recent years. Ceramic insert is one such cutting tool being used in the machining of this metal and study is still being conducted to increase the machinability. This paper investigates the machinability characteristics for determining the machinability of Inconel 718 using ceramic insert based on Grey Relation Analysis (GRA) and signal to noise (S/N) ratio. The input parameters such as feed rate, cutting speed and depth of cut are taken into consideration to obtain the suitable response parameters such as minimal surface roughness and low tool wear rate to improvise the machining characteristics of this superalloy. Ceramic inserts had even been cryogenic treated to provide better machining conditions on the Inconel 718. 2023 Author(s). -

Some results on b-chromatic topological indices of some graphs
Graph coloring is assigning weights, integers, or colors to edges, vertices, or both in a graph subject to certain conditions. Proper coloring C of graph G refers to assigning weights, integers, or colors to the vertices, edges, or both so that adjacent vertices or adjacent edges get a different color. A b-coloring follows proper vertex coloring with subject to an additional property that each color class should have at least one vertex with a neighbor in all the other color classes. The notion of Chromatic Zagreb index and irregularity index was introduced recently. This paper introduces the concept of b-Chromatic Zagreb indices and b-Chromatic irregularity indices. Also, we compute these indices for certain standard classes of graphs. 2023 Author(s). -
Irreducible tensor approach to study ? + d ? d + ? 0
The study of photoproduction of mesons plays an important role in understanding the properties of strong interactions. Pion photoproduction on deuterons has been studied theoretically for several decades. At the VEPP - 3 storage rings, tensor analysing powers in ? + d ? d + ?0 have recently been measured. In light of these advances, we suggest adopting an irreducible tensor technique to explore the reaction ? + d ? d + ?0 at close to threshold energies. Our method, which is model-independent, works well for predictions regarding spin observables. By describing the differential cross section in terms of multipole amplitudes, the angular dependence of the cross section will be studied. 2023 Author(s). -

Early strength of concrete amended with waste foundry sand - A potential for early open to traffic (EOT) pavements
The most predominant and widely practiced methods for waste disposal are Landfill, Incineration, and composting. There is a scarcity of land for waste disposal and because of increasing land cost, recycling and utilization of industrial by-products and waste materials has become an attractive proposition to waste disposal. There are several types of industrial by-products and waste materials. The utilization of such materials in concrete not only decreases the overall cost of construction but also helps in reducing disposal concerns. One such industrial by-product is waste foundry sand (WFS). The annual production is about 3 million tons from different industries in India. In the metal casting process, foundry industries dispose of huge quantities of waste sand into landfills, causing a harmful impact on the environment. The silica-based spent foundry sands from iron, steel, and aluminum foundries are evaluated in the risk assessment. This paper mainly focuses on achieving concrete for EOT (Early Open to Traffic) rigid pavements with WFS along with the use of accelerator and super-plasticizer. Effects of WFS on concrete properties such as compressive strength and split tensile strength are presented. Two types of mix proportions were investigated in this study. FDOT (Florida Department of transportation) and IRC (Indian Road Congress) recommendations were adopted for mix proportions using 5% & 10% of WFS replaced partially for M-Sand. 1-day compressive strength for FDOT mix with 10% WFS was 30MPa & for IRC mix with 10%, WFS was 20?MPa. The 3-days strength for mixtures with 10% WFS was 45MPa & 47MPa for FDOT & IRC mix proportions, respectively. Though the strength decreased with the inclusion of WFS, the 1-day and 3-days strength achieved for mixtures with 10% WFS surpassed the minimum strength requirements as per the slab replacement guidelines. Normally the pavement will be open to traffic after three to four days of laying asphalt, this method of using foundry sand enables the pavements to be open to traffic inless than a day. 2023 Author(s). -
