In the current study, an industrial product (electrical wire connector) have been casted in cold chamber die casting process using LM2 aluminium alloy to produce certain specimens to be assessed under the study for the determination of the responses ( mechanical properties such as impact strength, hardness and surface roughness). As cold chamber die casting is being popularly known for its efficient and accurate casting process which can process a broad range of castings with intricate sha...

Joining of dissimilar materials is one of the most essential needs of industries. There are various welding methods that have been developed to obtain suitable joints in various applications. However, friction welding is a solid state joining technique which utilizes the heat generated rubbing of two faying surfaces for the coalescence of the material. In the present study, an experimental setup was designed in order to achieve friction welding of plastically deformed Al 6082 and Al 6063 a...

From last few decades’ composite materials, ceramics and plastics has made a mark in the field of materials. Applications of these materials in engineering arespecially attributed to their low specific weight and comparatively high strength. Applications of composite materials vary from the basic daily needs to sophisticated luxury applications.The demand of natural fiber in the composite materials has been increased owing to low density, low cost and biodegradable properties of na...
