    Comparative study of coated and uncoated tool inserts with dry machining of EN47 steel using Taguchi L9 optimization technique
    (2018) Vasu, M.; Shivananda, N.H.
    EN47 steel samples are machined on a self-centered lathe using Chemical Vapor Deposition of coated TiCN/Al2O3/TiN and uncoated tungsten carbide tool inserts, with nose radius 0.8mm. Results are compared with each other and optimized using statistical tool. Input (cutting) parameters that are considered in this work are feed rate (f), cutting speed (Vc), and depth of cut (ap), the optimization criteria are based on the Taguchi (L9) orthogonal array. ANOVA method is adopted to evaluate the statistical significance and also percentage contribution for each model. Multiple response characteristics namely cutting force (Fz), tool tip temperature (T) and surface roughness (Ra) are evaluated. The results discovered that coated tool insert (TiCN/Al2O3/TiN) exhibits 1.27 and 1.29 times better than the uncoated tool insert for tool tip temperature and surface roughness respectively. A slight increase in cutting force was observed for coated tools. � 2018 Author(s).

    Impact of ECAP on wear performance of Al-Mn magnesium alloy
    (Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2020) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda, N.H.
    The current study examines the wear performance of deformed AM90 magnesium alloy using pin-on-disc wear test apparatus under varying load of 30 and 40 N with the sliding distance of 2500 m and 5000 m at constant sliding speed of 3 m s-1. The samples were processed through equal channel angular pressing were subjected to microstructural, wear studies and are characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Vickers microhardness was carried out to evaluate the relation between the wear behavior of homogenized and ECAP processed samples. Increment in number of ECAP passes increased the grain refinement as observed in the microstructure with reduction in grain size from ?70 ?m (homogenized sample) to ?4 ?m (ECAP 4 pass sample). Increase in wear resistance and hardness were observed for processed samples and the worn faces are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer. The worn surfaces revealed the occurrence of wear debris, delamination, ploughing in the direction of sliding and the predominant wear mechanism was considered to be the combination of oxidation and abrasive wear. © 2020 The Author(s).
