Dr. Tanvir Hussain, of the university, has received the five-year fellowship — funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council — to find new modeling and processing techniques that will overhaul the design and manufacture of advanced ceramic materials for the next generatio...

SUMMARY Electrolytic codeposition is a promising alternative low-cost process for fabricating MCrAlY coatings.  In this process, CrAlY particles are codeposited with the (Ni,Co) to form an (Ni,Co)-CrAlY composite coating, which is subsequently heat treated at elevated temperatures to be transformed to the MCrAlY coating containing phases of β-NiAl, γ-(Ni,Co), etc.  Two types of CrAlY-based particles (made by ball milling and gas atomization) were employed.  The effects of several key processing parameters, such as current density, particle loading, and particle size/shape density, on the...

National March 13, 2021 PESHAWAR: Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Mahmood Khan Friday said allocated funds for ongoing mega developmental projects would be released without any delay for the timely completion of the projects within the tenure of incumbent government . “The provincial government will make all possible efforts to complete the ongoing developmental schemes of public interest within the tenure of incumbent government so that people could benefit from these projects without any delay,” he remarked. He was chairing a meeting held here to review progress so far made on differ...

New Ozone Generator Effectively Kills Germs Written by AZoSensorsFeb 2 2021 While ultraviolet light and chlorine are the routine ways of disinfecting water, ozone is just as effective in destroying microorganisms. The electrodes for the ozone generator are made of silicon wafers with precisely etched trenches. Image Credit: © Fraunhofer ISIT. So far, scientists have only used ozone as an oxidation agent for treating water in large-scale plants. But now a project consortium from Schleswig-Holstein is designing a tiny ozone generator that can be used in smaller applications, like small domesti...

A Symposium Of Revolutionary Ideas: CPCM 2020 SHARE  -Albert Einstein We live in a material world. Following the industrial revolution, metals have formed the forefront of technology, and they have stayed there ever since. It is often said that material science is the foundation upon which today’s technology is based, and real-world applications would not be possible without them. On the same lines, the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, NIT Rourkela successfully organized the Conference on Processing and Characterization of Materials (CPCM-2020) from 18th – 20th...
