R.; Bhaskar, R. V.; Bhagure, A. D. Abstract: Aluminum sandwich construction has been recognized as a promising concept for structural design of light weight systems Sandwich panels have a variety of applications in aerospace, automobile, sports and marine industry. In aerospace industry the parts of the aircrafts like ailerons, flaps and rudders, have been manufactured from honeycomb sandwich panels. These structures are thin-walled structures fabricated from two flat sheet separated by a low density core. Sandwich structures are widely used in many important engineering applications due to their extremely low weight that leads to reduction in the total weight, fuel consumption, excellent crush strength, high stiffness and corrosion resistance. Sandwich structures have a very high Strength to weight ratio with respect to solid plate because of low density core. Comparison of various load deflection parameters of different honeycomb structures with different material face plates is done with static three point bending test 2019-07-02T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/2847 Title: Film cooling performance measurement over a flat plate for a single row of holes embedded in an inclined trench Authors: Barahate, S.

Abstract: In India, a large group of population accounts for old aged groups, physically disabled people & people with damaged limbs due to accidents which faces severe problem in climbing staircases at public buildings, parks, old residential buildings, their private homes. Also the maximum number of buildings is not equipped with elevators or escalators. Most of these buildings have certain limitations of installing elevators or escalators. Hence Stairlift proves to be effective way to tackle such problems faced India & can be game changer for handicapped & old aged population of India. A stairlift is a mechanical device which is used to lift people and goods up and down on the stairs, who may find it difficult in doing so themselves. In this a rail is mounted along the treads of the stairs. A chair or carriage is attached to the rail. A person on the chair or carriage is lifted as the chair or carriage moves along the rail. Our main aim is to design stairlift for Curved Tracks using optimized driving mechanism, also focusing on modular design aspect while designing the system in order to make assembly trouble free and less time consuming during assembly as well as during maintenance and to carry out results for fail safe design. The general considerations of outcomes in design and manufacture of a Curved stairlift which should be useful for lifting people weight up to 120kg 2019-06-15T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/2722 Title: A comprehensive review on ferrofluid convective heat transfer under the influence of external magnetic source Authors: Kadbhane, S. V.; Pangavhane, D. R. Abstract: Ferrofluid is a colloidal liquid, consisting of nanoparticles of magnetic material suspended in a carrier liquid. Its important property is, though it is liquid still responds to external magnetic field and becomes highly magnetic in the presence of same. This property of ferrofluid has widened its use in many applications like energy harvesting, heat exchanger, electronic cooling, seal, lubrication and damping. In few applications like fluid transport in space, conventional convective heat transfer is inadequate due to reduced or complete absence of gravity. Also conventionally water or air is used as a working medium in convective heat transfer application. As both have lower convective heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer rate is poor with them. Thermophysical properties of ferrofluid can be controlled by varying externally applied magnetic field. Addition of ferrofluid, under the action of externally applied magnetic field, increases thermal conductivity and convective heat transfer coefficient significantly as compared to base liquid. Research work should be carried on investigating performance of ferrofluid in convective heat transfer applications, on which yet very less or no research is carried like I.C. engine cooling, electronic cooling, and heat exchanger applications in order to enhance convective heat transfer rate and thus performance of devices using ferrofluid as a working medium. This paper focuses on research work carried till now in the area of ferrofluid based convective heat transfer and area in which ferrofluid based convective heat transfer should be explored. 2019-04-02T00:00:00Z
