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. …

Study of Analysis, Design and Performance of Fin
Abstract: This paper discusses the use of extended surface heat transfer in heat exchangers. The size and cost of an exchanger is dependent upon the heat duty, the allowable pressure drop, and the geometry of the heat transfer area. The dominance of this resistance is often broken by the use of extended surfaces (fins), which will result in a lower area and hence smaller exchanger. This paper will consider which, if …

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.

Seismic Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Structures Coupled with O-Grid Bracing Systems
Abstract: The greatest challenge for structural engineers is to design the structures to be earthquake resistant. Basically, the earthquake-resistant design of reinforced concrete structures is a force-based design. When a structure is designed for seismic resistance, various systems are embedded into the structure so as to resist the lateral forces. One of the systems, which are used for resisting lateral forces, is to provide the structures with different types of bracings. …
