The unique properties of Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) like high strength to weight ratio, low density has made the alloy very useful material in the manufacturing of compressor blades, casings and other structural components of the gas turbine engines. The TIG welding is an arc welding process widely used in the fabrication of gas turbine engine components and its assembly. The Interpulse technique is the modified version of TIG welding process. Due to magnetic constriction and high frequency modulation of current in the interpulse technique, the arc is getting constricted which further minimizes the net heat input. In this experiment response surface optimization technique has been adopted to evaluate the effects of the input variables (main current, delta current, travel speed), on output responses (weld bead width, reinforcement height and area, penetration height and area and HAZ area). The outcome shall be beneficial in selecting suitable parameters to obtain the required shape and quality of the weld bead geometry.Keywords

Ti-6Al-4V is a material that is extensively used in the gas turbine application. The fabrication of the assemblies of the gas turbine made up of Ti-6Al-4V involves Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding. It is preferred to have a minimal bead width for minimal distortion with full penetration welds meeting the required weld quality as per aerospace weld standards. The primary purging gas which is usually employed during TIG welding is inert argon gas. In this present study argon and helium gas mixture was adopted as shielding gas. Taguchi design of experiment has been employed involving L9 orthogonal array with 3 parameters and 3 levels. The aim of the study was to understand the effect of the weld parameters and Ar-He gas mix ratio on the bead width of the welds. The obtained results were analyzed using ANOVA and found the welding current having significant effect on bead width followed by welding speed and Ar-He gas mix. A linear regression mathematical model is generated of the response variable. In order to ascertain the optimized parameters confirmation tests are conducted and obtained results are correlated. Macroscopic images do not show any crack or porosity and thereby confirm that defect free welds can be produced within the range of process parameters.Keywords

Mining activities stimulate environmental and socioeconomic impacts on the local and mining communities right from its commencement and continues throughout the life cycle of the mine. The communities in the neighbourhood of mining gradually adopt a typical life-style that is highly influenced by the mining. The impacts exaggerate once the mining activities ceases. Mine closures can result in major adverse socio-economic impacts on local and mining communities, in turn affecting their overall quality of life. Thus, it is essential to predict the socio economic impacts of mine closure on local and mining communities. This paper makes an attempt to develop a conceptual model for post closure quality of life to assess the socio-economic impacts of mine closure on local and mining communities.Keywords
