INTRODUCTION

Rapid technological advancement after Second World War has led to the development of ultra-hard, high-strength, high-temperature-resistant, difficult-to-machine materials for their increasing demand in technological advanced industries like aerospace, automotive, marine, power plants, missile, and turbine industries. Producing complicated geometries, least metallurgical transformations, and maintaining high dimensional accuracy in products made of such materials become extremely difficult with the conventional machining processes which necessitate the development of newer concepts in machining science.

OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE

The objective of this short term course is to enrich the knowledge of participants in the emerging areas of machining science and to make participant aware of advancements occurring in this field. Furthermore, participants will be able to apply these concepts in their research work and they can add it into their course curriculum.

SCOPE OF STC

Conventional Machining Processes

Advanced Machining Processes

Hybrid Machining Processes

Processing of Advanced Materials

Surface Integrity Evaluation

Experimental Design

Process Optimization

Modelling of Machining Processes

EXPERT LECTURES DELIVERY

Lectures will be delivered by distinguished faculty members from IITs, NITs and professional from industries.
