Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. Strengthening of aluminium alloys. 3. Fundamentals of rolling. 4. Processing fundamentals. 5. Aluminium rolled products. 6. Common encountered defects of aluminium - rolled products and overall remedial actions. References. Subject index. Aluminium possesses high strength, low density and ability to resist corrosion due to the phenomenon of passivation. Structural components made from aluminum and its alloys are vital to the aerospace industry and are important in other areas of transportation and structural materials. In order to improve upon the properties and hence utilization, much effort has been directed towards the development of Aluminium alloys. Aluminum alloys are alloys in which Aluminium (Al) is the predominant metal. The typical alloying elements are copper, magnesium, manganese, silicon, and zinc. Aluminium alloys are widely used in engineering structures and components where light weight or corrosion resistance (marine environment) is required. In the context of current scenario Aluminium alloys exhibits a wide spectrum of applications as finstock for Air conditioning system, pressure-cooker products, foils for packaging, closures for bottle caps and cans, Lithographic coil for printing purpose, shell for holding bullets. The book provides an interesting comprehensive guidance of different products of Aluminium alloys, overview on industrial fabrication methods, critical issues associated with end application and fabrication. The book is divided into six chapters. Chapter 1 and 2 is dedicated to the general introduction of Al based alloys and different mechanism of strengthening. Chapter 3 to 5 is based on the general principle of rolling along with fabrication of Aluminium rolled products and applications. As Aluminium alloys has multidimensional applications and each end products has specific quality requirement during fabrication which is discussed in depth in Chapter 5. Several anomalies during processing of Aluminium rolled products and the possible remedies are described in Chapter 6. References are provided at the end of each chapter. I hope that the book will serve as a useful reference in future for the readers.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Uncertainty and Chaos in Indian Farming: Production,Livelihood and Income by S.K. Acharaya, A.B. Sharangi & Swagata Patra ISBN: 9788119002245 | Binding: Hardback | Pages: 131 | Language: English | Year of Publishing: 2023 Length: 152 mm | Breadth: 13 mm | Height: 229 mm Hardback INR 1,995.00 INR 1,796.00 1 Shipping: Free Worldwide Delivery Within 10-15 Days By Indian Post (Traceable Methods) Indian agriculture at large has been on trajectory of grand uncertainty. The brunt of climate change, sharp undulation in productivity, unpredictability in market price, the consistent up rise in cost of cultivation and downfall of net return are amounting to what we may call the grand uncertainty. Uncertainty is an inevitable character of any system where most of the contributory factors are either unpredictable or unfathomable. The higher is the complexity, the lesser would be the resilience, and higher would be the uncertainty. Agricultural production system, as it is managed in Indian condition, is the most vulnerable to a plethora of uncertainties. Mostly managed in an open air rain fed conditions, complex-diverse-risk prone, it has been exposed to weather and resource uncertainties, market volatility, poor access to technology and a fragile input delivery mechanism. Indian Agriculture is now at a crossroad and gets confronted by uncertainty and unpredictability. The growth rate of food production runs just marginally above population growth. The book has uniquely dealt with a basket of perceived uncertainties that makes farmers and economy reel under stress and risk. The world s largest agrarian economy is being managed mostly by private land owners, who are mostly under the clutch of middlemen and vagaries of weather. The book, based on an empirical study, has indentified the marker variables of farmers in responding to and complying with the unpredictability and freaks of social dynamics.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. The origin of agroforestry practices, i.e. growing trees and shrubs with food and fruit crops and grasses is traditional and very old; but the science of agroforestry is new. Years of experience and experiments have shown that agroforestry as a land-use system is capable of yielding both food and wood and at the same time helps in conserving and rehabilitating the ecosystems. It has the capability to increase the overall productivity of land, maintain the nutrient balance in the soil and above all protect the nature. In the recent years, agroforestry has been recommended as a core subject in the curriculum of B. Sc. (Forestry) and B. Sc. (Agriculture) courses of the state agricultural universities. Keeping this in view, the book on has been written for the students. The common people, who love trees, would also find it worth reading. The book has been divided into sixteen chapters covering very comprehensive information on all aspects of agroforestry including history, concepts, classification, management, soil productivity, tree-crop interactions, multipurpose trees and their propagation, agroforestry for different agroclimatic zones, watershed and wasteland management through agroforestry, climate change adaptation and mitigation, diagnosis & design, experimental analysis, benefits and limitations, economics and extension of agroforestry. Definitions of agroforestry terminology, selected references and related web links are also added for the easy understanding and further study on the subject.
