(Tech Science Press sale@techscience.com, 2020) Aralikatti, S.S.; Ravikumar, K.N.; Kumar, H.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Sugumaran, V.
The state of cutting tool determines the quality of surface produced on the machined parts. A faulty tool produces poor surface, inaccurate geometry and non-economic production. Thus, it is necessary to monitor tool condition for a machining process to have superior quality and economic production. In the present study, fault classification of single point cutting tool for hard turning has been carried out by employing machine learning technique. Cutting force and vibration signals were acquired to monitor tool condition during machining. A set of four tooling conditions namely healthy, worn flank, broken insert and extended tool overhang have been considered for the study. The machine learning technique was applied to both vibration and cutting force signals. Discrete wavelet features of the signals have been extracted using discrete wavelet transformation (DWT). This transformation represents a large dataset into approximation coefficients which contain the most useful information of the dataset. Significant features, among features extracted, were selected using J48 decision tree technique. Classification of tool conditions was carried out using Naïve Bayes algorithm. A 10 fold cross validation was incorporated to test the validity of classifier. A comparison of performance of classifier was made between cutting force and vibration signal to choose the best signal acquisition method in classifying tool fault conditions using machine learning technique. © 2020 Tech Science Press.

Corrosion Behavior of ECAP-Processed AM90 Magnesium Alloy
(Springer Verlag, 2018) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Sahu, S.
Magnesium AM90 alloy was subjected to equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) using route B C. Microstructural characterization revealed refined grains having average grain size ?3?m after ECAP 4 passes. Samples were subjected to electrochemical measurements to study the corrosion behavior. Potentiodynamic polarization test showed reduced corrosion current density (Icorr) for processed samples up to ECAP 3 pass due to grain refinement. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed an increase in the diameter of the capacitive arcs and charge-transfer resistance (Rt) for ECAP-processed 3 pass sample indicating the reduction in corrosion rate. Increase in corrosion resistance is due to refined microstructure and uniform distribution of secondary particles forming a protective passivation layer (Mg (OH) 2) on the sample’s surface. Immersion test indicated lower hydrogen evolution from ECAP-processed samples compared to the unprocessed condition indicating decreased corrosion rate. © 2018, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.
Development and characteristics of accumulative roll bonded Mg-Zn/Ce/Al hybrid composite
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017) Anne, G.; Ramesh, M.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Arya, S.B.; Sahu, S.
Accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process have been used develop Mg-2%Zn/Ce/Al hybrid composite and microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties were investigated. The electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that the grains are significantly reduced and reaches up to 1 ?m in Mg-2%Zn layer and 1.8 ?m in Al layer having high angle misorientation of grain boundaries after subjected to 5-passes of the ARB process. The Al17Mg12, AlMg4Zn11 and Al11Ce3 intermetallic phases were observed through the XRD analysis. Mechanical properties of the hybrid composite improved with increase in the number of ARB passes which is attributed to work hardening, grain refinement and uniform distribution of Ce particles. Presence of Ce in the hybrid composite restricts the phenomenon of dynamic recrystallization and prevents the grain growth during ARB process. The corrosion rate of Mg-Zn/Ce/Al hybrid composite (0.72 mm/y) improved about 3.3 times as compared to that of Mg-2%Zn alloy (2.37 mm/y). © 2017 Elsevier B.V.
Development and properties evaluation of Mg-6% Zn/Al multilayered composites processed by accumulative roll bonding
(Cambridge University Press, 2017) Anne, G.; Ramesh, M.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Arya, S.B.; Sahu, S.
Accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process was used to develop Mg-6% Zn/Al and Mg-6% Zn/anodized-Al multilayered composites. Microstructural characterization was done using scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, electron backscattered diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. An average grain size measured in the roll-bonded layers of Al, anodized Al, and Mg-2% Zn was found to be 1.8 ?m, 1.6 ?m, and 0.6 ?m, respectively. Phases Al17Mg12, AlMg4Zn11, and Al2O3 after 5-pass of ARB were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. The Mg-6% Zn/Al and Mg-6% Zn/anodized Al composites exhibited tensile strengths ?252 MPa and ?256 MPa, respectively, after a 5-pass ARB process. Hardness of the individual layers of composite increased linearly with an increase in the number of ARB passes. Fractographs of the multilayered composite illustrated the ductile failure in Al and anodized Al layers and transgranular brittle fracture in Mg-6% Zn layers. © Materials Research Society 2017.

(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Sholapurkar, S.U.; Chanda, S.; Verma, K.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Das, B.
This paper outlines the design and prototyping methodology for a simple, cost-effective device intended for Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) therapy, specifically for knee rehabilitation. The device is designed to assist patients in recovery by providing controlled, repetitive motion to the knee joint without requiring active participation. Its core mechanism utilizes a rack-and-pinion system, which converts rotational motion into linear motion, ensuring smooth and consistent lower limb movement. A PID controller has been implemented using an Arduino Mega microcontroller to provide precise control over the motion. This setup allows for accurate adjustments to both position and speed, aligning with the therapeutic requirements for effective rehabilitation. Key success factors and failure points are also highlighted, providing valuable insights for future improvements and development. Â© 2024 IEEE.

(Springer International Publishing, 2019) Anne, G.; Ramesh, S.; Kumar, G.; Sahu, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Arya, S.
In the present study, homogenized Mgâˆ’4%Zn (wt%) alloy was exposed to multi-direction forging (MDF) at 280 Â°C up to 5 passes successfully. Microstructural evolution, mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of the MDF-processed Mgâˆ’4%Zn alloy was investigated using different characterization techniques. Five passes of MDF (cumulative strain, Î£Î”Îµ = 3.45) led to the formation of ultrafine grain structure (grain size ~2.3Ã‚Â Î¼m) with high angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) and high dislocation density. Corresponding ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and microhardness were observed to be 228Ã‚Â MPa and 88 Hv. Potentiodynamic polarization test results exhibited higher corrosion resistance (0.38Ã‚Â mm/y) in comparison with that of homogenized condition (1.33Ã‚Â mm/y).

(National Engg. Reaserch Center for Magnesium Alloys zhangdingfei@cqu.edu.cn, 2013) Muralidhar, A.; Narendranath, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
AZ31 wrought magnesium alloys are light weight materials which play an important role in order to reduces the environmental burdens in modern society because of its high strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and stiffness and machinability. Applications of this material are mainly in structural component i.e., in constructions, automobile, aerospace, electronics and marine industries. In the present work, the microstructure characterization of the AZ31 alloys up to four ECAP passes at temperature of 573 K was observed for route Bc. Average grain size of the material was reduced from 31.8 ?m to 8 ?m after four ECAP passes. Mechanical properties of the alloy improved with increase in number of ECAP passes. Moreover, X-ray diffraction analysis was carried out for as received and ECAP processed material. © 2013 National Engineering Research Center for Magnesium Alloys of China, Chongqing University.
Effect of Equal Channel Angular Pressing on Properties Evaluation of Biodegradable Mg-Zn-Mn Alloy
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Ramesh, S.; Kumar, G.; Jagadeesh, C.; Anne, G.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was used to process Mg-4Zn-1Mn alloy at 300 °C using route Bc up to 4 pass with a cumulative strain of 3.2. Optical microscope (OM), microstructures results shows homogenized sample grain size was 260 µm, after 4 pass ECAP grain size was decreased to 6 µm. Electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) shows the misorientation angle converted from low-angle grain boundaries (LAGB) to high-angle grain boundaries (HAGB). Dislocation density and fine grains were observed from transmission electron microscope (TEM) images. Strength has been increased from 156 to 218 MPa and hardness increased to 68 Hv after 4 pass of ECAP. Fractography analysis revealed that dimple size decreases as ECAP passes increased. XRD analysis shows the peak broadening and intensity variation, because of grain refinement. The corrosion behavior of the homogenized and ECAP-processed samples were investigated by electrochemical tests using simulated body fluids (SBF) at 37 ± 1 °C. The lower corrosion resistance of ECAP-processed Mg-4Zn-1Mn alloy attributed to the strain-induced crystalline defects, subgrain boundaries and high-density dislocations. Enhanced strength and ductility combined with lower corrosion resistance of ECAP-processed Mg-4Zn-1Mn has greater potentials for biomedical implants. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
Effect of multiaxial cryoforging on wear properties of cu-1.5%ti alloy
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd ttp@transtec.ch, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Copper-Titanium alloy was subjected to multi axial forging (MAF) at cryogenic temperature. Microstructure evolution was observed using optical microscope (OM). After 9 pass of MAF, grain size reduced to 2 Âµm. As number of MAF pass increases, hardness of the sample increased, due to strain hardening effect. Dry sliding wear test was performed on as-received and MAF processed samples using pin on disc wear machine. Tests were performed at 30 N and 40 N loads at 3 m/s constant speed and at 1000 m and 2000 m, sliding distance. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and EDS was used to analyze the worn-out surface of the specimen. Wear mass loss of MAF processed sample reduced, with increased number of MAF passes. Frictional Coefficient (COF) reduced with increase in MAF passes and improved with increase in load, because of increase in contact area between sample and disc.

(Pleiades journals, 2019) Singh, P.; Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Cu-3%Ti alloy is cold rolled with different reduction ratios and the microstructures and mechanical properties are compared with that of as-cast Cu-3%Ti alloy. Microstructure was analyzed using optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. Optical microscopy revealed significant grain refinement that occurred during the rolling process. Tensile test results indicate that the UTS is increased by a significant amount up to 80% rolling reduction. A significant amount of tensile strength increased up to 812 MPa is about 1.69 times that of the cast Cu-3%Ti alloy. Hardness of the rolled Cu-3%Ti increased as % reduction increased. Dimples were revealed on the fracture surface of the rolled Cu-3%Ti specimens indicating a ductile nature of the fracture. © 2019, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

(Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Sahu, S.; Arya, S.
Combined multiaxial forging (MAF) and rolling was performed on Cu-3% Ti (wt%) alloy at room temperature with emphasis on microstructural evolution, improvement in mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance. Microstructural changes were confirmed from various characterization techniques, and co-related with mechanical properties. TEM analysis revealed high shear band density in the 3 pass MAF + 90% rolled sample appearing due to high strain. EBSD analysis revealed transformation to low angle grain boundaries from high angle grain boundaries. Maximum microhardness and UTS reached to 340 HV and 960 MPa, respectively in the processed samples. Significant grain refinement was observed in MAF processed Cu-3%Ti alloy, and after combined MAF + rolling, higher dislocation density and refinement of shear bands were observed. In addition, potentio-dynamic polarization test was used to study the corrosion behavior of the alloy. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to analyze the corroded surface morphology. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
Electrochemical Behaviour of ECAP-Processed AM Series Magnesium Alloy
(Springer International Publishing, 2019) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) is a technique for inducing high strain into the material to achieve ultrafine grain refinement. AM80 magnesium was processed by ECAP with processing route BC. ECAP-processed samples were tested for microstructural studies and electrochemical measurements. Potentiodynamic polarization test revealed decrease in corrosion current density due to uniform refined microstructure of the processed samples. Increment in charge transfer resistance (Rt) was observed for ECAPed samples with increase in capacitive arc diameters in Nyquist plots showing increased corrosion resistance in comparison with as-cast condition. The increment in corrosion resistance is because of grain refinement and uniform dispersal of intermetallic particles, which improved development of protective layer and bonding due to increased grain boundary density by ECAP process.

Influence of Ball Burnishing Process on Equal Channel Angular Pressed Mg-Zn-Si Alloy on the Evolution of Microstructure and Corrosion Properties
(Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2021) Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Kumar, G.; Jagadeesh, C.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
In the present study, Mg-4Zn-1Si alloy was subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) up to 4 passes at 300 °C, followed by ball burnishing using 0.3 mm depth of press, 300 mm/min feed and 1 pass successfully. The effect of ECAP and ECAP + ball burnishing process on microstructure, mechanical properties (tensile and hardness) and corrosion behavior was systematically investigated. After 4 pass ECAP, initial coarse grains (210 ?m) were refined and average grain size is 6 ?m and after ball burnishing, the grain size is found to be 3.3 ?m. Microstructure evolution is discussed using optical images, scanning electron microscope images and transmission electron microscope images. For ECAP samples, maximum strength and hardness was recorded at 3 pass. Both strength and hardness decreased for 4 pass ECAP processed samples, even though grain size decreased, this is because of texture modification in the material. ECAP 4 pass + ball burnished samples exhibited 48.5% enhancement of microhardness as compared to 4 pass ECAP samples. Corrosion resistance of the samples decreased with increase in the number of ECAP passes, this is due to strain-induced grain refinement with more crystalline defects in samples. Combined process of ECAP and ball burnishing effectively reduces the Icorr and this consequently reduces corrosion rate of the Mg–4Zn-1Si alloy. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.

(Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2018) Mallesha, M.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
In this experimental work dry turning process carried out on EN47 spring steel with coated tungsten carbide tool insert with 0.8 mm nose radius are optimized by using statistical technique. Experiments were conducted at three different cutting speeds (625, 796 and 1250 rpm) with three different feed rates (0.046, 0.062 and 0.093 mm/rev) and depth of cuts (0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mm). Experiments are conducted based on full factorial design (FFD) 33 three factors and three levels. Analysis of variance is used to identify significant factor for each output response. The result reveals that feed rate is the most significant factor influencing on cutting force followed by depth of cut and cutting speed having less significance. Optimum machining condition for cutting force obtained from the statistical technique. Tool wear measurements are performed with optimum condition of Vc = 796 rpm, ap = 0.2 mm, f = 0.046 mm/rev. The minimum tool wear observed as 0.086 mm with 5 min machining. Analysis of tool wear was done by confocal microscope it was observed that tool wear increases with increasing cutting time. © 2018 IOP Publishing Ltd.
Investigation of microstructure and mechanical properties of the Cu-3% Ti alloy processed by multiaxial cryo-forging
(Cambridge University Press, 2018) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Gopi, K.R.; Sahu, S.; Kuruveri, U.B.
A Cu-3%Ti (wt%) alloy was processed by multiaxial forging (MAF) at cryogenic temperature up to 3 cycles, imposing a total strain of 1.6. Microstructure and mechanical properties of the unprocessed and cryo-forged samples were analyzed. X-ray diffraction results showed deviation in peak broadening and peak intensity of the cryo-forged samples in comparison to that of unprocessed, which are due to texture modification caused by grain refinement during the MAF process. Microstructural analysis showed reduction in grain size from 80 m in the as-received condition to 250 nm after 3 cycles. Electron backscatter diffraction results indicated the transformation of high angle grain boundaries to low angle grain boundaries in all 3 cycles when compared to the as-received condition. Reduction in ductility was observed after 1 cycle, but with an increase in the number of cycles, both strength and ductility increased. After 3 cycles, ultimate tensile strength and hardness reached 1126 MPa and 427 Hv as compared to 528 MPa and 224 Hv for the as-received condition. Fractography analysis showed decrement in dimple size after 1 cycle, in comparison to that of the as-received condition. However, it kept on increasing for higher number of cycles. © © Materials Research Society 2018.
Investigation of Tribological and Corrosion Behavior of Cu-Ti Alloy Processed by Multiaxial Cryoforging
(Springer, 2020) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Wear and corrosion properties of Cu-3%Ti alloy subjected to multiaxial forging (MAF) under cryogenic conditions are estimated at room temperature. Wear study was performed using pin-on-disk dry sliding wear setup at 10 and 20 N loads with varying sliding distances (500-3000 m) under different sliding velocities (1 and 2 m/s). Coefficient of friction and wear mass loss decreases with an increase in MAF cycles, due to increases in hardness of samples. Wear resistance decreases with an increase in load and sliding velocity. Worn surface shows the plastic deformation regions, wear track, micro-cracks, micro-plowing groove and scratches. Potentiodynamic polarization test clearly shows that current density (Icorr) increases with an increase in MAF passes, because of grain refinement. Reduction in corrosion rate was evident from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results which show increased diameter of the capacitive arc. An enhancement of corrosion resistance was revealed at higher MAF passes. © 2020, ASM International.

(Elsevier Ltd, 2017) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) with different passes was carried out for Mg-Al-Mn (AM) series magnesium alloy to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties. ECAP process was carried up to 4 passes using route BC, where the samples are rotated by 90Â° in the same direction between consecutive passes. Microstructures were studied using optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and it was observed that the grain size was reduced from 100 Î¼m to 1 Î¼m after 4 passes. Tensile test was conducted and the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increased up to 2 passes but decreased with higher passes, even though grain size became finer with increase in ECAP passes. Microhardness was carried out and it was observed that the hardness was increased up to 2 passes of ECAP and decreased with higher passes. Â© 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2017) Anne, G.; Ramesh, M.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Arya, S.B.; Sahu, S.
Multilayered composite of Mg-2%Zn/Al-7075 was developed by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) of wrought Mg-2%Zn and aluminum 7075 alloy. The Mg-2%Zn/Al-7075 multilayered composite exhibited density of 2295 kg/m3 and an average grain size of 1 and 1.3 ?m in Mg-2%Zn and Al-7075 layers, respectively. A thorough microstructural characterization was performed on the composites by scanning electron microscope, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), transmission electron microscope and phase analysis by x-ray diffraction. In addition, mechanical properties were evaluated by microhardness and tensile tests. Corrosion behavior of the multilayered composite was examined using electrochemical polarization test. EBSD analysis showed the presence of ultrafine grains with high-angle grain boundaries. The composite exhibited a significant improvement in ultimate tensile strength (~1.82 times) and elongation (~1.5 times) as compared with Mg-2%Zn alloy, after four-pass ARB process. © 2017, ASM International.
Numerical Simulation of Shot Peening Process on Equal Channel Angular Pressed Magnesium Alloy
(Springer Netherlands rbk@louisiana.edu, 2018) Praveen, T.R.; Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.
This paper presents the numerical simulation of inducing residual stresses on equal channel angular pressed (ECAP) magnesium alloy by shot peening process. Mg-Al-Mn (AM) series magnesium alloy was ECAP processed up to 4 passes using route BC. Microstructures were analysed and grain size reduced from 100 µm for the as-received sample to 3 µm for ECAP 4 pass sample. Tensile test was carried out and maximum tensile strength was found in ECAP 2 pass sample and decreased with higher ECAP passes. Grain refinement was characterized by optical microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction analysis (EBSD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Material (tensile) behaviour of 2 pass sample was implemented for finite element modelling. A finite element method was used to estimate the intensity of residual stresses developed due to shot peening in ECAP processed AM80 alloy. Simulation was done with different boundary condition such as impact velocity, geometry of shot-peen media, angle of impact and multiple impacts. The results are presented and the relationship between process parameters and the intensity of residual stresses are discussed. Increase in velocity of shot peening media showed an increase in the magnitude of residual stresses. Change in geometry of shot media altered the contact area between target and shot media during impact which influenced the magnitude of residual stresses and coverage area. The magnitude of residual stresses varied with the angle of impact and the multiple repeated impacts showed that the effective depth of residual stresses increased with the number of impacts. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature.
On the microstructure, texture and electrochemical properties of severely deformed and artificially aged lightweight AA2050 Al-Cu-Li alloy
(Institute of Physics, 2024) Jagadeesh, C.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Sekar, P.; Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.
Lightweight 3rd generation Al-Cu-Li alloy AA2050 was severely deformed via Multi Axial Forging (MAF) at 170 °C followed by artificial aging at 150 °C. Effect of MAF and post MAF aging on microstructure and precipitation was investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Formation of deformation bands and large dislocation cells were evident on MAF processed samples. Post MAF peak aging resulted in the distribution of fine T1 precipitates in grain interiors with reduction in grain boundary precipitation. Bulk texture studies reveal the formation of strong Goss and S texture components upon MAF processing. Further, low temperature artificial aging doesn’t exhibit significant changes in texture characteristics, either in terms of texture intensities or texture components. Polarization studies showed that peak aged samples exhibited better corrosion resistance compared to un-aged samples. Overall, 12 pass MAF processed and peak aged samples showed higher corrosion resistance. Further, corrosion surface morphologies examination revealed the change in corrosion mechanisms with thermomechanical treatments. Improved corrosion resistance after MAF and peak aging widens the requirements in aerospace and aircraft applications for such engineering alloys. © 2024 The Author(s).
