(1) The generation of nanobubbles by electrolysis is an interesting method of using electrical energy to form bubble nuclei, effectively creating a multiphase system. For every process, the effectiveness of nanobubble generation by electrolysis depends on various process parameters that impact should be determined. (2) In this work, the electrolytic generation of hydrogen and oxygen bubbles was performed in a self-built setup, in which a Nafion membrane separated two chambers. The generation of bubbles of both gases was investigated using Box–Behnken experimental design. Three independent variables were salt concentration, current density, and electrolysis time, while the dependent variables were Sauter diameters of generated bubbles. An ANOVA analysis and multivariate regression were carried out to propose a statistical and power model of nanobubble size as a process parameter function. (3) The generation of bubbles of hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis showed that different factors or their combinations determine their size. The results presented in this work proved to be complementary to previous works reported in the literature. (4) The Sauter diameter of bubbles increases with salt concentration and stays constant with increasing current density in investigated range. The proposed correlations allow the Sauter diameters of nanobubbles generated during electrolysis to be predicted.

Aluminium and its alloys play a significant role in engineering material applications due to its low weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance. The welding of aluminium alloy is challenging for the normal conventional arc welding processes. This research tries to resolve those issues by the Tungsten Inert Gas welding process. The TIG welding method is an easy, friendly process to perform welding. The widely applicable wrought aluminium AA8006 alloy, which was not considered for TIG welding in earlier studies, is considered in this investigation. For optimizing the number of experiments, the Taguchi experimental design of L9 orthogonal array type experimental design/plan was employed by considering major influencing process parameters like welding speed, base current, and peak current at three levels. The welded samples are included to investigate mechanical characterizations like surface hardness and strengths for standing tensile and impact loading. The results of the investigation on mechanical characterization of permanent joint of aluminium AA8006 alloy TIG welding were statistically analyzed and discussed. The 3D profilometric images of tensile-tested specimens were investigated, and they suggested optimized process parameters based on the result investigations.

AbstractObjective: Physical process parameters play a major role in the cultivation of cyanobacteria to provide high yield. The aim of this study was to optimize physical parameters such as light intensity and agitation rate which might affect the phycobiliprotein formations for cyanobacterial strains of Oscillatoria agardhii and Synechococcus nidulans using response surface methodology.Methods: The cyanobacterial strains were cultured in 250 mL flasks containing 100 mL of EM medium in orbital shaking incubator under the temperature of 22±2°C at different light intensities and agitation rates for 10 days. The experimental design was carried out using 2Results: The optimization solution of O. agardhii (approximately at 156 rpm under the light intensity of 65 μmol photons mConclusion: High agitation rate stimulated the faster growth than increased the light intensity for the growths of cyanobacterial strains.

Dual rotation plates lapping method can effectively solve the limitations of traditional ceramic ball machining methods. This paper focuses on the application of Taguchi method to optimize the technique parameters to lap ceramic ball. The main objective is to study impact degree of the process parameters (lapping load, lapping speed combination and slurry concentration). The results show that the experimental design based on Taguchi method can determine the optimum machining conditions which improve the surface quality and geometrical precision of ceramic ball.

The anodizing process is an aluminum surface treatment process which an aluminum oxide film forms on an aluminum substrate. Typically, the anodic thickness is a required specification which depends upon current density and anodizing cycle time. In addition, another important factor is ramp time which must be proper set to prevent a burn defect. Thus, this paper investigates a relationship among these three factors to determine the setting condition which minimizes the anodizing cycle time. Moreover, the required thickness must be obtained without increasing the burn defect rate. The experimental design technique is proposed to achieve this goal and it is found that the current of 35 amp, ramp time of 340sec and anodizing time at 1400 sec ensure the obtained anodic thickness greater than 30 micron.

A biodegradable co-polymer, Poly (butylene succinate-co-butyene terephthalate) (PBST) was fabricated into nanofibers by electrospinning. A 4-factor 3-level L 9(34) orthogonal experimental design was employed to examine the effects of process parameters on morphologies of PBST nanofibers. The results showed that the weight concentration = 13wt%, the applied voltage = 20kV, the spinning speed = 0.5ml/h, the electrode distance = 10cm and the diameter of needle = 0.7mm were identified as the optimum conditions.
