    Experimental Studies on Corrosion and Wear Properties of TICN Coated AA7075
    (2018-06-23T12:11:14Z) B Paul, Ignatious; Deepak, N S; Mukhul, V; Naveen, Singh
    Titanium Carbo-Nitride (TiCN) coated aluminium alloy (AA7075) specimens are prepared to required dimensions. Heat treatment is carried out to improve the properties like toughness, strength or hardness, etc of the material. Corrosion is the deterioration or destruction of metals and alloys in the presence of an environment by chemical or electrochemical means. In order to determine the corrosion properties the following processes are studied: weight loss test, Potentio-dynamic test, impedance test. Wear is a process of interaction between surfaces, which causes the deformation and removal of material on the surfaces due to the effect of mechanical action between the sliding faces. Wear studies is conducted to find wear rate, co-efficient of friction, frictional force by pin on disc machine. The wear and corrosion properties are analyzed compared and the optimized temperature-time duration is recorded.

    Study On The Properties Of Road Pavement Using Waste Plastic In Road Construction
    (2015-12-29T11:37:42Z) Kasturi, Kalita; Naveen, Singh; Riya, Jain; Saket, Sing
    Due to increasing demand in highway construction, scientists and researchers are constantly trying to improve the performance of bitumen pavement. Asphalt concretes are widely used in pavements. Bitumen is the naturally occurring byproduct of crude oil. Due to increase in vehicles in recent years the road surfaces have been exposed to high traffic resulting in deformation of pavements due to excessive stress. Permanent deformation happens when pavement does not have sufficient stability, improper compaction and insufficient Pavement strength. Due to this increased usage of plastic the disposal of plastic has been difficult. Some studies say that 10million tones of plastic are produced in India and only 2million tones of plastic waste are recycled. Plastics have to be disposed or else it will be hazardous to nature and environment. The main objective of the project is to provide tools to evaluate and to improve the properties of pavement using waste plastic such that it may be more confidently employed in roadways and driveways.
