An Overview of Rapid Prototyping-FDM
Abstract: Rapid prototyping (RP) has been introduced as a frontier technology in the modern times, which allows direct transformation of CAD files into functional prototypes. It decreases the lead-time to produce physical prototypes necessary for design verification, fit and functional analysis by generating the prototypes directly from the CAD data. This paper presents an overview of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) process, process parameters and its applications. Keywords: additive manufacturing, fused deposition …

Ability of Metallic Materials to Resist Surface Damage Induced by High-temperature Action of Air or other Gaseous Mediums
Abstract: The features of the oxide layer scale that forms on the metal's surface and limits gas penetration into the metal, limiting the growth of gaseous corrosion, influence a metal's or alloy's oxidation resistance in an oxidising atmosphere. The rise in weight of sample being tested (due to oxygen uptake by the metal) or even the weight loss after removing the scale from the sample's surface, related to a unit surface …

Colloidal Gold Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications
Abstract: The main problem of drug-based therapy is that the introduced compound is not located in the target area and it is widely dispersed. Colloidal nanoparticle-based treatment can benefit the situation. The human body can concentrate inert nanoparticle by passive targeting. The therapeutic delivery system can be promoted using the surface of gold nanoparticle so that it only targets the specific issues by active targeting. In passive targeting colloidal GNPs can …

Improving Internal Combustion Engine Performance by Using Reduced Power Air Conditioning System
Abstract: The paper studies and analyzes the effects of adsorption air conditioning system instead of the classical compression unit on the vehicle internal combustion engine (ICE) performance. The adsorption system uses the residual heat from the ICE cooling circuit to create the necessary thermodynamic conditions to reduce the temperature in the vehicle cockpit. The proposed system has the advantage of no mobile parts for operating since it works on pressure difference …
