Patents
- A Patent was published with application No 202141037362 A titled “A Method for preparing novel composition of Nano cement mortar by using Halloysite Nanoclay (HNC), and Multiwalled carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT)” on dated 27/08/2021, Inventors: Chethan Kumar S, Dr.N.S.Kumar, Gazala Anjum
Abstract: The present invention discloses a novel composition of Halloysite nanoclay (HNC), and Multi Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) and preparation method thereof. The method for preparing novel composition of Halloysite nanoclay (HNC), and Multi Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) with enhanced synergistic effects on Compression, Split Tensile and Flexural strength of cement paste in sonicated and non-sonicated state, comprising the steps of, but not limited to: providing, cementitious composites having high compressive strength and modulus of elasticity, and relatively low tensile strength, toughness and ductility; and a plurality of reinforcing agents are used with Halloysite Nano Clay. - A Patent was published with application No 202141033078 A titled “Development Of Empirical Formulas To Determine The Shear Planes” on dated 23/07/2021, Inventors: Nanjunda K N, Thejas H K, Chandrashekar V C
Abstract: The determination of shear planes is very essential in order to determine the design capacity of bolted joint due to single s or double shear force acted in either in lap joint or but joint. The shear pla hear force ne is the plane between two or more pieces under the load where the pieces tend to move parallel from each other, but in opposite directions. The shear planes for lap joint and but jo double cover plates with numbers of bolts are analyzed. From the result empirical formulas are developed
