Effect of Hygrothermal Aging on Strength Performance of Cork Powder Reinforced Adhesive /

By Sohail, Zulekha . . 100p. , Adhesives play a crucial role across various industries and applications due to their ability to bond materials together. They are used in numerous ways, ranging from everyday household applications to industrial and specialized fields. Strength is the most critical factor to analyze before using the adhesive. Various techniques have already been developed and many are being developed to predict and improve the strength of adhesive. The addition of cork powder to the structural adhesives could improve the strength of adhesive joints through mechanical interlocking between the cork cells and the molecules of adhesive. However, even with the nanofiller reinforcement, the strength of adhesive joints is significantly affected by environmental parameters like temperature and humidity. The present study investigated the effect of hydrothermal aging on the strength characteristics of cork powder-reinforced adhesive samples. Reinforced adhesive samples were investigated under two different humidity levels of 80% and 100% RH. The cork powder will be added in concentration of 0.25wt.%, 0.5wt.%, 0.75wt.% and 1wt.% to study the reinforcing effects. The result shows that the saturated mass increased with increased in relative humidity that is approximately 0.4% and 0.9% for 80% and 100% RH respectively. The findings show that the ultimate tensile strength is reduced by the addition of cork powder as well as enhancing humidity. Furthermore, the addition of cork powder makes the sample more brittle, so failure strain and tensile toughness undergo decrement. The above finding indicated that hot-wet environment has a negative influence on strength performance of cork powder reinforced adhesive. In future the same study can be performed to know the strength of SLJ and DLJ to know its effect on joints. 30cm.

Simulation of Structural Integrity of Rubber Brick Wall for Constructional Purposes /

By Masood, M Faizan Iqbal . . 172p. , An earthquake is a natural phenomenon that causes extreme destruction and death. Earthquakes are caused by sudden releases of energy from the earth's interior that cause the earth's crust to shake. A tectonic plate slips past another during this event. A natural disaster such as an earthquake may be rarer than other types, but it can create more devastation and death than any other natural hazard, making it one of the most destructive on the planet. In Newbury, UK, the International Serological Centre (ISC) and the World Data Centre A in Boulder, Colorado, USA, hold comprehensive lists of seismic events. As part of the efforts to improve earthquake predictability, much research has also been conducted on earthquakeprone areas worldwide. To counteract this destruction, humankind has been evolving and dealing with different methods to reduce the number of lives lost. The objective was to simulate on Abaqus a 4x4 wall of bricks made from polyurethane joined by epoxy to test on what magnitude does wall break. The wall was tested and almost sustained 7.1 magnitude. There were cracks in the wall but the bricks did not break instead the bonding agent gave up and the wall fractured. 30cm.

Study the effect of shallow cryogenic treatment on mechanical and microstructural properties of 30CrMnSiA steel heat treated in vacuum furnace and Box Type conventional air furnace /

By Aslam, Muhammad Danyal . . 50p. , Heat treatment plays a major role in improving the material properties. With the addition of cryogenic treatment these properties can be further improved. In this paper heat treatment is carried out on low carbon low alloy structural steel in two different types of furnaces conventional box type air furnace and vacuum furnace along with shallow cryogenic treatment with the purpose to investigate the outcome of shallow cryogenic treatment on the material properties and to find out which type of furnace is more suitable with shallow cryogenic treatment. For this purpose, structural steel 30CrMnSiA was selected, and heat treatment was carried out in conventional box type air furnace (900°C × 40mins) and vacuum furnaces (900°C × 70mins), shallow cryogenic treatment (-75°C × 125mins) was carried out after the quenching and before tempering. For the physical properties of the material, hardness (HRC) was investigated using Brinell hardness tester HBD-62-5AP. Tensile samples were prepared as per ASTM E8/E8M and investigated using 100kN WAW-100B Electro-Hydraulic Servo Computer Control Universal Testing Machine. Impact toughness was measured by using electronic pendulum impact testing machine CBD-300 and specimens were prepared using ASTM standard E23-12c. Microstructural analysis for grain structure was carried out using Olympus DSX1000 optical microscope. 30cm.

Automated Karyotyping: Segmentation and Classification /

By Umbreen, Neelam. . 130p. , Karyotyping continues to be the bedrock of cytogenetic diagnosis, providing key information on chromosomal abnormalities causative of a broad range of genetic disorders, developmental abnormalities, and cancers. But standard karyotyping is time-consuming, requires extensive specialist interpretation, and is vulnerable to human mistake and inefficiency, especially in high-volume clinical settings. Despite advances in medical image analysis, the automation of karyotyping faces persistent challenges, including the lack of large-scale annotated datasets, difficulties in segmenting overlapping chromosomes, and variability in chromosome morphology and staining. These challenges define a significant research gap in developing scalable, accurate, and clinically deployable deep learning models for automated chromosome analysis. In order to overcome this gap, we first present a large-scale, clinically annotated cytogenetic database, built from 1,311 patients and consisting of 10,057 karyograms with 514,949 manually annotated chromosome singlets. Furthermore, 3,935 metaphase images are annotated at the instance level in COCO format. This data set reflects true-world diversity, ranging from normal and abnormal karyotypes to different Giemsa (G-banding) staining intensities, structural abnormalities, and overlapping difficult cases, and thus presents a solid basis for the creation and testing of deep learning models within automated cytogenetics. Based on this work, we create two primary methodologies aimed at the fundamental tasks of karyotyping. For segmentation of chromosomes, we introduce a variant Mask R-CNN model involving an Attention-based Feature Pyramid Network (AttFPN), spatial attention, and a LastLevelMaxPool component to improve multi-scale feature representation and contextual perception. It enhances performance in difficult situations, including overlapping chromosomes and weak banding patterns, and gains considerable improvements in mean Average Precision (mAP) compared to standard baselines. For chromosome classification, we present the Dual Attention Multiscale Pyramid Network (DAMP), a specifically designed model that combines channel and spatial attention mechanisms to concentrate on discriminative features, as well as a multiscale pyramid architecture to cope with size, orientation, and quality variation in chromosomes. DAMP's highest classification accuracy is 96.76% on both public and commercial datasets, performingxv better than state-of-the-art models like ResNet-50, Vision Transformers, and Siamese Networks. Overall, this thesis provides interpretable and scalable deep learning models for automating chromosome classification and segmentation. Through the closure of key gaps in dataset quality, model resilience, and clinical utility, the work facilitates the insertion of clever decision-support systems into cytogenetic pipelines, ultimately leading to improved diagnostic reliability and efficiency in the face of chromosomal disorders. 30cm.

Customization of 3D-Printed Knee Implants: Design Optimization and Lattice Structure Integration fo Enhanced Performance /

By Ahmad, Fatima Ajaz . . 93p. , Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgeries are becoming increasingly common globally as an effective measure to counter knee arthritis. Total knee replacement implants are very advantageous in a sense that they offer 99% success rate to patients. This thesis presents the design, simulation and additive manufacturing of a patient specific, Functionally Graded Lattice Structure (FGLS) knee implant in Ti 6Al-4V alloy with specific reference to the healthcare situation in Pakistan. This was to explore the local manufacturing facilities of Pakistan as all knee implants are imported from abroad. The strategy involved a high degree of workflow consisting of Computer-Aided Design (CAD), finite element analysis (FEA), and topology optimization using nTopology to create Gyroid-based lattice work. The structures were to resemble the trabecular bone structure to ensure that stiffness discrepancies were minimized. This helped counter only one drawback of solid knee implants, stress shielding. The simulations of the physiological loading conditions (static and cyclic) demonstrated a Von Mises peak of 620.45 Mpa and safety factor of 12.66 on the average and unlimited predicted life of fatigue of over 10^7 cycles. The use of FGLS was effective in making the weight of 490 g to 292, leading to a 40 percent weight reduction, with no structural integrity lost. Selective Laser Melding (SLM) was used to fabricate the implant and the heat treatment allowed stress relieving of the additively manufactured implant. Compressive testing was also mechanically vindicated to be on an of average 95.02 kN with little variation and Micro-CT scanning confirmed high dimensional fidelity and showed internal lattice geometries without defects. According to this research, SLM produced FGLS implants usage has proven to be an option to traditional prosthetics, which is mechanically stable, biologically desirable, and cost-effective, and has a bright future of being a locally manufactured orthopedics product. 30cm.
