Experimental investigation and multi-objective optimization of eco-friendly near-dry electrical discharge machining of shape memory alloy using Cu/SiC/Gr composite electrode.

The near-dry electrical discharge machining processes have been conducted using air-mist or gas mist as a dielectric fluid to minimize the environmental impacts. In this article, near-dry electrical discharge machining (NDEDM) experiments have been performed to improve machining performance using an oxygen-mist dielectric fluid, a copper composite electrode, and Cu-Al-Be polycrystalline shape memory alloy (SMA) work materials. The copper composite electrode is made up of 12 wt% silicon carbide and 9 wt% graphite particles.

Studies of Performance of CsTiIBr (Where x = 0 to 6)-Based Mixed Halide Perovskite Solar Cell with CdS Electron Transport Layer.

The present research work represents the numerical study of the device performance of a lead-free CsTiIBr-based mixed halide perovskite solar cell (PSC), where x = 1 to 5. The open circuit voltage (V) and short circuit current (J) in a generic TCO/electron transport layer (ETL)/absorbing layer/hole transfer layer (HTL) structure are the key parameters for analyzing the device performance. The entire simulation was conducted by a SCAPS-1D (solar cell capacitance simulator- one dimensional) simulator.
