A Study On The Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Inclusions in Steel and Their Role in Bearing and Gear Failure.
A Study On The Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Inclusions in Steel and Their Role in Bearing and Gear Failure.
This has reference to yesterday's meeting where you decided to work for your M. Tech project under
my guidance.
I have decided to offer the following topic for your M. tech project.
"A Study on the Physico-chemical Characteristics of inclusions in steel and their role in
Bearing and Gear Failure."
Literature survey: Inclusions in steel, classification, identification of inclusions, international
standards. Detection of inclusions by microscope, SEM EDX, Ultrasonic etc. Severity level as
per ASTM E45.
Detailed studies on bearing steels SAE 52100, 100Cr6, SUJ2, 20MnCr5 etc.
Inclusions in steel leading to bearing & gear failure. Examples, photographs, failure analysis.
EXPERIMENTS:
You must collect samples of steels.
I will also provide you with some samples. Characterization of the samples will be necessary --
chemistry, inclusions, micro. hardness, banding, etc.
Examples with photographs and failures due to inclusions.
Refer various books and publications in the reputed journals. All references with name of the author,
journal, date year must be kept for writing the thesis.
All photographs, graphs, tables, failed components, inclusions, micro-structures etc must have
proper references.
I shall keep giving you further instructions with the progress of the work
Maintain regular communication with me
