Beauty of Mechanical Engineering

-
Mechanical Engineering is a beautiful branch of engineering. It’s been here since ages. It includes study & application of principles of mechanics, energy & fluid mechanics to create mechanical systems aimed at doing innumerable tasks. As a course of study, it begins with learning fundamentals of statics & dynamics which forms the base. Along with it comes Thermodynamics which is again a fundamental subject which deals with study of heat, work and energy in the form of First, Second and Third laws. It also includes study of Availability & Irreversibility, Entropy, Real Gases, Thermodynamic cycles, Properties of Pure Substances like steam. All Thermal Power Plants work on principles of Rankine power cycle. This forms the basis of all Thermal Energy Systems. Fluid Mechanics is another subject which is taught with an objective to understand properties of various engineering fluids along with application of principles of statics & dynamics. In the first phase w

ICC Cricket World Cup 2023

-
 ICC CWC 2023 I was ardent fan of cricket 🏏 during my childhood days. I still remember watching India-England early morning matches at 4 AM. When it used to wake up for studies, we could hardly get up and keep our turns to hide under blankets in the guise of studying while brother kept watch on Dad's surprise inspection.  Surprisingly, enthusiasm was not limited to us (brothers) only rather we used to involve everyone in the event. Discuss each and every incident during the match as if this is going to be our Board exam question paper.  Post match analysis these days are result of that only. TV networks pick up few retired cricketers and let them discuss the full match again.  Hardly matches had total of 200+ in one day matches. T20 was yet to born....  Recently when news broke of nominating V V S Lakshman as Head Coach of ICT, I was pushed back in memory lane when he used to slog for full 50 overs and team used to post only 213 !! But I don't know want kept us glued to the TV

NanoComposites in Tennis Balls

-
Nano composites consists of nano sized particles embedded in some type of matrix -are group of promising new materials being infused in some of our modern technologies.  One type of nano composites is currently being used in high performance tennis balls. These balls retain their original pressure and bounce twice as long as conventional ones. Air permeation through walls is inhibited by a factor of two due to presence of a flexible and very thin (10 to 50 microns) nanocomposite barrier coating that covers the inner core. This nanocomposite coating consists of matrix of butyl rubber, within which is embedded thin platelets of vermiculite, a natural clay mineral. The vermiculite platelets exists as single molecule thin sheets- on the order of nano meter thick-that have a very high aspect ratio.  Furthermore vermiculite platelets are exfoliated that is they remain separated from each other. Also within the butyl rubber, the vermiculite platelets are aligned such that all th
