However it is also cited that there have been evidences in the past with respect to pitting and crevice corrosion under conditions that were not expected. The current work focusses on evaluation of immersion corrosion studies on stainless steels in varied corrosion environments like water, sea water and dilute hydrochloric acids. The immersion duration was for a period of 7 days for all the three diluents. Hardness studies have also been reported in the paper. The result shows that there is a decrease in the corrosion resistance of stainless steel samples with respect to acid corrosion as compared to fresh water and sea water corrosion tests. Hardness of the samples have also shown a reduction in the values for acid corrosion when compared to the counterparts.","PeriodicalId":207087,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Materials Manufacturing and Characterization","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134581206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Parameters used in the present investigation are: Vertical parameters – Ra (CLA, m) and Rq (RMS, m), Transverse parameters – Rsm (mean line peak spacing, m), Peak shape and amplitude parameters – Rsk (skewness), Rku (kurtosis) and Fractal parameter – D (fractal dimension).

Modified epoxy resin system with reactive diluent exhibited good toughness and low viscosity with better penetration and wettability to high strength carbon rovings leading to effective translation of fiber strength in the final composite. Compatibility of the modified epoxy resin with T-700 carbon fiber was ensured by Impregnated tow, NOL ring tensile and ILSS tests. Instrumental methods of analysis using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-rays (EDAX) were employed in analyzing the interfacial behavior.

In this work, TOPSIS (Techniques for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method is combined with Taguchi’s technique to solve a multi objective optimization problem in Wire-electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of EN-31 alloy steel. Process information was gathered by Taguchi’s L27 orthogonal array to study the effect of six input parameters on four responses. TOPSIS has been used to convert multiple responses to a response called as Multi-Performance Characteristic Index (MPCI). This MPCI was then optimized by Taguchi method. ANOVA revealed that pulse off time (41.38%) was the most significant parameter followed by the servo feed (26.80%) and pulse-on-time (15.10%) whereas the effect of wire feed, wire tension and spark gap set voltage is negligible. Further, the confirmation experiment with optimal parameters confirmed that the targeted multi-performance characteristic was significantly improved to achieve more desirable levels.","PeriodicalId":207087,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Materials Manufacturing and Characterization","volume":"359 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123946470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
