Analyzing and Reducing the Carbon Footprint in Concrete Block Manufacturing Processes

The proposed project for carbon footprint analysis of concrete block will benefit the community. Demand on concrete blocks is increasing dramatically and such massive production of these blocks contributes to an estimated 5% of Carbon emission of total carbon present in atmosphere. Thus, this analysis will help understanding and subsequently reducing carbon footprint of concrete […]

Development of lead-free journal bearings

To operate, the surfaces inside an aircraft engine must withstand several conditions, such as temperature and pressure, which will cause the components to wear over time. To prevent wear and reduce maintenance costs, the manufacturer of such engines usually uses several different techniques to enhance the surface’s resistance. However, some of these techniques, such as […]
