FIRE FIGHTING:

                    Firefighting is the act of extinguishing or preventing the spread of unwanted fires from threatening human lives and destroying property and the environment. A person who engages in firefighting is known as a firefighter.



FIRE FIGHTING PRINCIPLE:

                    Basics principles on which fire extinguishers works: -Smoldering: It involves removal of oxygen or decreasing presence of oxygen. - Cooling: It involves the process of reducing heat or removal of heat. -Starvation: It involves the removal of fuel from the scene of fire .


Types of Fire Fighting Equipment
  • Fire Extinguishers.
  • Fire Blankets.
  • Fire Hose Reels.


Fire Fighting Techniques
  • Fog Attack. The hose uses a fog setting to extinguish a fire – ideal for closed compartment fires where there is no wind. ...
  • Indirect Attack. Aimed at the ceiling, the water drops down and extinguishes the fire from above. ...
  • Direct Attack. ...
  • Combination Attack. ...
  • The 'Two Lines in' Method.

Additive manufacturing and 3D printing applications in prototyping, medical and automotive fields (NJK)

Image
Additive manufacturing and 3D printing applications in  prototyping, medical and automotive fields Basics and role in prototyping      Additive manufacturing includes processes like FDM, SLA, SLS, DMLS, and others that convert digital 3D models into physical parts without dedicated tooling. For mechanical engineers, AM enables rapid prototyping, where multiple design iterations can be produced and tested in days instead of weeks, cutting lead time and cost in product development. ​ Key prototyping advantages: Complex shapes (internal channels, lattices) that are difficult or impossible with machining or casting. ​ Easy design iteration: CAD changes can be printed directly, avoiding new molds or dies each time. ​ Reduced waste, because material is added only where needed, improving material utilization. ​      Functional prototypes can be printed in engineering plastics or metals, allowing mechanical engineers to validate strength, fit, assembly, and er...
