Modified Design Improvement Study and Optimization of a intake Manifold to Obtain Unequal Distribution of Velocity for Optimal Diesel Engine Performance
Abstract: Geometrical design of intake manifold has been found very significant for the better performance of an I.C. Engine. It becomes less effective at the intake manifold's runner's outlets due to an uneven flow distribution of the intake air. With an increase in velocity at the distribution channels, the presented study seeks to make this uneven velocity distribution nearly equal without requiring any additional significant changes to the entrance manifold's construction. …

A Study on Method and Modelling of Structural Analysis and Finite Elements: A Review
Abstract: The finite element method (FEM) or finite element analysis (FEA), is a numerical method usually employed for solving engineering (structural mechanics) and mathematical physics problems. Generally, the analytical solution of these problems require the solution to boundary value problems for partial differential equations. Specimens are usually tested and analysed using finite element method (FEM) for investigating the behaviour of square concrete columns confined by fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) and sheets.

Advancements in Understanding and Managing Myocardial Infarction: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: A myocardial infarction, often known as a heart attack, is a severe health issue characterized by a sudden reduction in blood flow to a part of the heart muscle, leading to the impairment or demise of cardiac cells. This occurs when the coronary arteries, responsible for delivering oxygenated blood to the heart, become blocked, typically due to the formation of a clot within them. The clinical manifestation of a myocardial …
