Studies on Nano Cellulose Century Fiber Composites

Nano cellulose composites are used for advanced applications for structural parts and electronic components. Biocompatible water soluble cellulose composites are used in medical applications as well. Nano cellulose fibers are extracted through various chemical and mechanical treatments to separate the cellulose and to further refine it. Composites are made using thermosetting polyester resin and biodegradable poly vinyl PVA . 


A research work is proposed in this paper for extraction of lignocellulose and nano cellulose fibers from century plant and developing the composites for evaluation of TGA, DSC, DMA, dielectric, tensile, flexural, impact, hardness and hygroscopic properties. Applications for the composites will be suggested based on the the properties of the composites.

Development of Hybrid Fibrous Panel for Controlling Acoustics in Home Theatre Conference Hall

Human ear will acknowledge as sound when frequency is in the range of 20 to 20000 Hz and more sensitive in the range of 500 - 4000 Hz. Heat and sound insulation panels are generally composed of nonwoven porous synthetic materials such as rock wool, glass wool, polyurethane, polyester and etc. Though these materials have excellent acoustic properties at high frequencies, their structural properties are not enough to defend against low frequency noise. Multi-purpose concert halls face a dilemma and they host classical music concerts, rock concerts and spoken word performances in a matter of a short period. These different performance types require significantly different acoustic conditions in order to provide the best sound quality to both the performers and the audience.

Micro perforated panel absorber backed by air gap is also used in auditoriums and effective only in absorbing specified range of frequencies low frequency . Hence, it is clear that one type of acoustical absorbers is unable to attenuate wide spectrum of frequency noise. Increased usage of synthetic sound absorption materials leads to higher CO2 emission and other environmental issues. 

Therefore, many researches turned towards the production of insulating materials by using natural and bio based materials. Natural materials are becoming a valid alternative to synthetic materials and composite panel is proposed with coir fibre alone which is organic in nature, have excellent insulation against thermal and sound and more resistant to fungi rot. 

The present work has been focused on the sound absorption performance nonwoven porous coir matt mounted with and with-out air gap, perforated panel faced porous coir matt with and with-out air gap and perforated panel mounted with air gap.

Performance Evaluation of Coating Materials and Process Parameters Optimization for Surface Quality During Turning of Aisi 410 Austenitic Stainless Steel

Stainless steel SS is used for many commercial and industrial applications owing to its high resistance to corrosion. It is too hard to machine due to its high strength and high work hardening property. A surface property such as surface roughness SR is critical to the function-ability of machined components. Stainless steel is generally regarded as more difficult to machine material and poor SR is obtained during machining. In this paper an attempt has been made to investigate the SR produced by CNC turning on austenitic stainless steel AISI316 and martensitic stainless steel AISI410 by different cases of coated cutting tool used at dry conditions. 

Multi-layered coated with TiCN Al2O3, multi-layered coated with Ti C, N, B and single layered coated with TiAlN coated cutting tools are using. Experiments were carrying out by using Taguchi's L27 orthogonal array. The effect of cutting parameters on SR is evaluated and optimum cutting conditions for minimizing the SR are determined. Analysis of variance ANOVA is used for identifying the significant parameters affecting the responses. Confirmation experiments are conduct to validate the results obtaining from optimization.

Data Processing Through Image Processing using Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying

Image Denoising is an important pre-processing task which is used before further processing of image. The purpose of denoising is to remove the noise while retaining the edges and other detailed features. This noise gets introduced during the process of acquisition, transmission and reception and storage and retrieval of the data. Due to this there is degradation in visual quality of image. Wavelets play a major role in image compression and image denoising as they support the property of sparsity and multi resolution structure. 

Wavelet Thresholding is important technique in wavelet domain filtering. Many image filters are found which perform well when the noise conditions are low. But as the noise conditions go on increasing their performance gets degraded. Thus, it is felt that there is sufficient scope to investigate and develop quite efficient but simple algorithms to suppress moderate and high power noise in images.

Skin Cancer Detection using Digital Image Processing and Implementation using ANN and ABCD Features

Melanoma is a serious type of skin cancer. It starts in skin cells called melanocytes. There are 3 main types of skin cancer, Melanoma, Basal and Squamous cell carcinoma. Melanoma is more likely to spread to other parts of the body. Early detection of malignant melanoma in dermoscopy images is very important and critical, since its detection in the early stage can be helpful to cure it. Computer Aided Diagnosis systems can be very helpful to facilitate the early detection of cancers for dermatologists. 

Image processing is a commonly used method for skin cancer detection from the appearance of affected area on the skin. In this work, a computerised method has been developed to make use of Neural Networks in the field of medical image processing. The ultimate aim of this paper is to implement cost-effective emergency support systems to process the medical images. It is more advantageous to patients. The dermoscopy image of suspect area of skin cancer is taken and it goes under various pre-processing technique for noise removal and image enhancement. 

Then the image is undergone to segmentation using Thresholding method. Some features of image have to be extracted using ABCD rules. In this work, Asymmetry index and Geometric features are extracted from the segmented image. These features are given as the input to classifier. Artificial Neural Network ANN with feed forward architecture is used for classification purpose. It classifies the given image into cancerous or non-cancerous. 

The proposed algorithm has been tested on the ISIC International Skin Imaging Collaboration 2017 training and test datasets. The ground truth data of each image is available as well, so performance of this work can evaluate quantitatively.

Coal Ash-Bentonite Mixture as Landfill Liner

Landfills are highly engineering containment systems, designed to minimize the impact of soiled waste on the environment and human health. In case of economically developing countries the design of a liner varies, that depends upon number of factors such as potential of the landfill polluting the land and water environments, the local hydrogeology and meteorology, and the availability of suitable materials and monetary resourced. 

Landfill is a land disposal site for waste and its Preparation, management and control must be of the highest standard to minimize the risks to human health and the environment. Well-constructed and maintained landfills are safer than open dumping sites. Landfill liners are exposed to various types of physical, chemical and biological processes which gets affected by leach ate produced from the decomposition of waste dumps.

The aim is to avoid any hydraulic connection between the wastes and the surrounding environment, particularly groundwater. To ensure this, the important characteristics for compacted landfill liners are selection of materials, hydraulic conductivity, strength, compressibility and contaminant retention capacity. Compacted clay liners are of low cost, large leach ate attenuation capacity and resistance to damage. 

Natural clay is often fractured and cracked and due to non-availability of suitable soil at a site, it is necessary to mix imported clay materials with industrial wastes to achieve a suitable material. Usually soil, which is rich in clay minerals is used for compacted liner materials. But instead of clay, mixture of expansive soil such as bentonite with fly ash can be used as compacted liner materials for their low hydraulic conductivity which is required to be less than 1.00×10^ -7 cm sec. Bentonite was mixed with fly ash in 2,4 8,12,16, and 20 by dry weight.
