Item A review on wrought magnesium alloys processed by equal channel angular pressing(Inderscience Publishers, 2015) Muralidhar, M.; Narendranath, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.Magnesium and its alloys with severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques are more attractive as structural parts in many industrial applications because of their advantages. In this paper, the importance of wrought magnesium alloys with their applications to accomplish the essential development of components is reviewed. In addition, the different approaches of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process for refining the grain size to achieve the ultrafine grained material on the bulk metals are discussed. Recent developments in the ECAP process are outlined clearly with their importance to overcome many complexities. Various factors like processing temperature of a specimen, die geometry, ram speed, back pressure and processing routes influencing during ECAP process of wrought magnesium alloys at different conditions such as channel angle and corner or outer arc angle are discussed. Finally, the properties of ECAP processed wrought alloys are outlined for improving the microstructure in structural parts. © © 2015 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.Item Tool health monitoring in lathe turning process by artificial intelligence techniques — a review(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2025) Gavina, C.G.; Hemalatha, K.L.; Ranganath, K.J.; Rajanna, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.Monitoring tool health is essential for maintaining efficiency, productivity, and quality in lathe turning operations. Traditional methods rely on manual assessments and subjective judgments, which can be time-consuming, inconsistent, and inadequate for detecting subtle tool wear. Therefore, this review discusses the literature review on predicting tool wear in the turning process, comprehensively examining the methods documenting for sensing and testing parameter design, image processing, and classification methods. The review outlines the use of vibration signals and images as datasets and advanced artificial intelligence techniques like machine learning, computer vision, deep learning, and expert systems to predict the accurate wear percentage in the tool. It also discusses the benefits and limitations of methods used in reviewed papers. To conclude, the performance of AI techniques from the reviewed papers, RNN from deep learning, gives more accuracy, with 97.04% predicting the tool wear. Within the Industry 4.0 framework, after a detailed review of the AI techniques, the combination of deep learning techniques that ensemble vibration signals and image information develops as a vital technology for evolving intelligent manufacturing. © The Author(s) 2024Item Investigation of Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of ECAP-Processed AM Series Magnesium Alloy(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2016) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Sahu, S.Magnesium alloy Mg-Al-Mn (AM70) was processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 275 °C for up to 4 passes in order to produce ultrafine-grained microstructure and improve its mechanical properties. ECAP-processed samples were characterized for microstructural analysis using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Microstructural analysis showed that, with an increase in the number of ECAP passes, grains refined and grain size reduced from an average of 45 to 1 µm. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis showed the transition from low angle grain boundaries to high angle grain boundaries in ECAP 4 pass sample as compared to as-cast sample. The strength and hardness values an showed increasing trend for the initial 2 passes of ECAP processing and then started decreasing with further increase in the number of ECAP passes, even though the grain size continued to decrease in all the successive ECAP passes. However, the strength and hardness values still remained quite high when compared to the initial condition. This behavior was found to be correlated with texture modification in the material as a result of ECAP processing. © 2016, ASM International.Item Microstructural Evolution and Strengthening of AM90 Magnesium Alloy Processed by ECAP(Springer Verlag, 2017) Gopi, K.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Sahu, S.Equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) was applied on AM90 magnesium alloy using processing route B C at 275?C up to four passes. Microstructural evolution and the corresponding modification in mechanical properties (strength, elongation and hardness) corresponding to the number of ECAP passes were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron backscatter diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, tensile test and microhardness test. Shear deformation was found to refine the microstructure by breaking it into smaller grains formed by dislocation reconstruction. Tensile strength and hardness were found to increase by ? 128 and 23%, respectively, for ECAP-processed 2-pass sample in comparison with that of the homogenized condition. After two passes, tensile strength and hardness started decreasing even though the grain size was still decreasing, which was found to be associated with texture modification during ECAP processing as observed by XRD analysis. © 2017, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.Item Turning process on en47 spring steel with different tool nose radii using OFAT approach(AMSE Press 16 Avenue Grauge Blanche Tassin-la-Demi-Lune 69160, 2018) Mallesha, V.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.EN47 spring steel samples are machined using coated tungsten carbide tools of different nose radii and the results are compared with each other. Cutting parameters are considered using one factor at a time (OFAT) approach. Input parameters are cutting speed (Vc), feed rate (f) and depth of cut (ap) varies from 256 rpm to 572 rpm, 0.043 mm/rev to 0.117 mm/rev and 0.25 mm to 0.75mm respectively. The corresponding output performance are cutting force, surface roughness and tool tip temperature have been analyzed. The result reveals that the lower cutting force and better surface roughness obtained with 1.2 mm nose radius similarly for minimum tool tip temperature obtained with 0.8 mm nose radius. © 2018 AMSE Press.All Rights Reserved.Item Effect of multiaxial cryoforging on microstructure and mechanical properties of a Cu-Ti Alloy(Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Gopi, K.R.; Sahu, S.Cu-Ti alloy, processed by multiaxial forging (MAF) at cryogenic temperature with a cumulative strain up to 1.64, was investigated for microstructure and mechanical properties. The deformed microstructures were analyzed using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The average grain size of 2 ?m was achieved in the deformed sample after 3 cycles of MAF. TEM studies indicated that the shear bands width of the deformed sample after 3 cycles reduced to 1 ?m. Tests for mechanical properties indicated an increase in tensile strength and hardness and it was found to be correlated with an increase in dislocation density and grain boundary strengthening mechanism. Ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 390 MPa, 480 MPa, and 590 MPa was observed in MAF processed samples after 1, 2, and 3 cycles, respectively. Hardness increased from 65 Hv (as-received) to 240 Hv after 3 cycles of MAF. Fractography analysis showed that, with an increase in number of MAF cycles, dimple size reduced up to 1 cycle and percentage elongation increased after 2 cycles of MAF. © 2018 IOP Publishing Ltd.Item Influence of Multidirectional Forging on Microstructural, Mechanical, and Corrosion Behavior of Mg-Zn Alloy(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Sahu, S.; Ramesh, M.R.Multidirectional forging (MDF) was applied to Mg-6%Zn alloy up to 5 passes successfully at 280 °C. MDF-processed materials were characterized using optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, electron backscatter diffraction, transmission electron microscope, and x-ray diffraction. Obtained results showed a significant reduction in grain size (up to 3.8 ?m) having a large fraction of high-angle grain boundaries after 5 passes of MDF process. Maximum tensile strength of 230 MPa was achieved for 5-pass MDF-processed Mg-6%Zn alloy which is about ~ 2.0 times higher in comparison with that of homogenized alloy (117 MPa) and was attributed to higher dislocations density and grain refinement. Corrosion behavior of the alloy was investigated in 0.1 M NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization test, electrochemical impedance spectra analysis, and immersion tests. It was found that the corrosion rate of 5-pass MDF sample improved (0.34 mm/year) ~2.5 times in comparison with that of homogenized Mg-6%Zn alloy (0.86 mm/year) due to fine grain structure, which creates more grain boundaries that act as a corrosion barrier. © 2019, ASM International.Item Influence of equal channel angular pressing and laser shock peening on fatigue behaviour of AM80 alloy(Elsevier B.V., 2019) Praveen, T.R.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Swaroop, S.AM80 magnesium alloy was processed with Equal Channel Angular Press (ECAP)for grain refinement. Laser shock peening without coating (LSPwC)were executed on ECAP processed sample at 8 GW cm?2 and further grain refinement were observed at surface. SEM image expose the grain refinement at different stage of processing, and fine grains of sub-micron size were observed at surface level after ECAP + LSPwC. Residual stress were measured using X-ray diffraction, sin2(?)method and compressive residual stress was found after ECAP. LSPwC intensify the compressive residual stress at surface. Increases in magnitude of residual stresses were noticed with 200 and 300% of LSPwC. Increase in surface roughness were noticed from 0.6 to 6.8 ?m by increasing the percentage of LSPwC coverage. Fatigue tests were acknowledged the effect of ECAP and ECAP + LSPwC on reliability of grain refinement technique. ECAP sample showed fatigue life of 7539 cycles against as received. Highest fatigue life of 85,268 life cycles was observed with ECAP + LSPwC by 100% of coverage. Further process of LSPwC for 200 and 300%, fatigue life was significantly decreases to 22,987 and 384 cycles respectively. SEM images of fractured surface exhibits effect of ECAP and LSPwC on crack initiation and propagation for failure. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Item Investigation of dry sliding wear properties of multi-directional forged Mg–Zn alloys(National Engg. Reaserch Center for Magnesium Alloys zhangdingfei@cqu.edu.cn, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Sahu, S.; Ramesh, M.R.Effect of multi-directional forging (MDF) on wear properties of Mg–Zn alloys (with 2, 4, and 6 wt% Zn) is investigated. Dry sliding wear test was performed using pin on disk machine on MDF processed and homogenized samples. Wear behavior of samples was analyzed at loads of 10 N and 20 N, with sliding distances of 2000 m and 4000 m, at a sliding velocity of 3 m/s. Microstructures of worn samples were observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) and the results were analyzed. Mechanical properties were evaluated using microhardness test. After 5 passes of MDF, the average grain size was found to be 30 ± 4 µm, 22 ± 3 µm, and 18 ± 3 µm, in Mg–2%Zn, Mg–4%Zn, and Mg–6%Zn alloys, respectively, with significant improvement in hardness in all cases. Wear resistance was improved after MDF processing, as well as, with increment in Zn content in Mg alloy. However, it decreased when the load and the sliding distance increased. Worn surface exhibited ploughing, delamination, plastic deformation, and wear debris along sliding direction, and abrasive wear was found to be the main mechanism. © 2019Item Influence of Multiaxial Cryoforging on Microstructural, Mechanical, and Corrosion Properties of Copper-Titanium Alloy(Springer, 2019) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Sahu, S.; Gopi, K.R.; Shivaram, M.J.; Arya, S.Multiaxial forging (MAF) was used to process Cu-4.5%Ti (wt.%) alloy at cryogenic temperature up to three cycles with a cumulative strain of 1.64. Microstructures, mechanical, and corrosion properties of as-received and deformed samples were analyzed. Microstructural analysis showed that average grain size decreased from 70 µm to 200 nm, and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) analysis revealed the transformation of high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) to low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs). Variations in intensity of peaks were observed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. Microstructural investigation showed elongated grains with shear bands having width ~ 200 nm for 3-cycle sample. Tensile testing and micro-hardness tests showed improvements in ultimate tensile strength (UTS), yield strength (YS), and micro-hardness, with the increase in MAF cycles. Ultimate tensile strength and hardness increased from 605 MPa and 252 HV (for as-received) to 1284 MPa and 428 HV for three cycles of MAF-processed sample, respectively. Improvement in strength and hardness was attributed to refined grain structure. Corrosion study was carried out for different cycles of MAF-processed samples using potentiodynamic polarization, and corroded surfaces were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. © 2019, ASM International.
