Model for predicting the quantity of water evaporated during drying of clay at a temperature range 80-110℃ has been derived. The model; E=exp[0.3424(LogT) 2.3529 ] indicates that the quantity of evaporated water during the drying process is dependent on the d…

A representative feed sample of Yellow sand was wet-sieved in order to recover the desired fractions for glass making. The mass percentage of (–600 +300) μm and (–300 +125)μm fraction was found to be 44.2 and 55.8% (ratio 1:2.26).Hence, this ratio which satis…

The present paper reports on the preparation of various Al-5Ti master alloys by the reaction of halide salt (K 2 TiF 6 ) with molten Al in an induction furnace. The master alloys are supposed to be used for the in-situ processing of Al-TiC Metal Matrix Compos…

Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
Use the journal's numbered (Vancouver) reference style. Cite sources consecutively in the order they appear, and ensure every reference is complete and retrievable.
