Dynamic Analysis of a Multi-geared Rotor Shaft System
Abstract: Gear systems are the toothed members in which the main aim is to transmit power or motion between two shafts by meshing without any slip. Motion and power transmitted between the shafts are kinematically equivalent to power or motion transmitted between frictional wheels. Vibration of gear system causes unwanted noise such as gear whirling. Noise and vibration signals from machine can contain vital information about the internal processes and provide …

Experimental Investigation of Bearing Inner and Outer Wall Defects by Ultrasonic Waves
Abstract: Sometimes the bearings show their defects by exchanging between the network gears, and this can be useful for experimental and similar experiments. These defects will cause the bearing to malfunction, the bearing to malfunction and need to be repaired and maintained, which can be useful for the industry and save potential costs. These defects can be significant through ultrasound to combine time and frequency variables, which is addressed in this …

Evaluation of Deformation Behavior of a Structural Pipe Bracket Under Static Loading Using Finite-Element Analysis
Abstract: This study presents a comprehensive structural integrity assessment and comparative static response analysis of an industrial support bracket subjected to varying mechanical loading conditions using the finite element method (FEM). Industrial brackets are essential load-bearing components in mechanical and structural systems, where adequate stiffness, strength, and dimensional stability are critical for ensuring operational reliability and structural safety. The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the influence of material …

Behaviour of Vertically Loaded Piled Raft
Abstract: In order to understand the load-settlement behaviour and load sharing of piled raft resting on sand soil, 1-g model tests were conducted.The parameter studied were the influence of pile spacing and number of piles. The testing program includes tests on models of unpiled raft and rafts on 4 and 9 piles. The model piles beneath the raft are non-displacement piles.The improvement in ultimate bearing capacity is represented by load improvement …

Identification of Axial Air-Foil Bearings and Radial Air-Foil Bearings
Abstract: Air-foil bearings (AFBs) are self-acting hydrodynamic bearings, a shaft is supported by a compliant, spring-loaded foil journal lining. Once the shaft is spinning fast enough, the working fluid (usually air) pushes the foil away from the shaft so that there is no contact. The shaft and foil are divided by air's high pressure which is produced by the rotation which pulls gas into the bearing via viscosity effects. AFBs provide …

Bauschinger Effect on Micro-Lattice of Ti-6al-4v Implants by Using Finite Element Analysis
Abstract: This research's primary objective is to apply the Bauschinger effect to develop a micro-lattice of titanium alloy implants using nonlinear finite element analysis. In orthopedics, micro-lattice cellular Ti-6Al-4V designs with controlled porosity and pore sizes that are good for tissue ingrowth and biological mechanisms are often used. In this investigation, CAD models of various unit lattice structures were generated using Intra-Lattice software, incorporating design parameters such as strut length, strut …

Polymer-Based Composites in Orthopedic Applications: A Study
Abstract: The pursuit of ideal biomaterials in the field of orthopaedics is an ongoing process that is drivenby the requirement for improved biocompatibility, mechanical congruence with natural tissues,and long-term stability in vivo. Polymer-based composites, also known as PBCs, have emergedas highly attractive options. These composites offer a one-of-a-kind combination of features thatcan be customised, which addresses many of the constraints that are associated with standardceramic and metallic implants. The purpose of …

A Review on Comparative Study on Performance of Vertical Cantilever Tuned Mass Damper and Base Isolators in Response Reduction of Multistory Building
Abstract: The present work concerned with the study on the comparison of performance of vertical cantilever beam as tuned mass damper (TMD) and the base isolator in high-rise RCC structure. The vertical TMD will be at the top floor at the position of interior columns and the mass of the TMD will be tuned with the primary structure. The base isolator like sliding bearing system will be designed for a multistory …

Advancing the Strength of Expansive Soil using BioEnzyme and Pond-Ash
Abstract: Expansive soils are problematic and prone to ground movements, which can seriously harm underlying structures and reduce their carrying ability. The expansive nature of soils is activated by moisture fluctuations, causing it to expand and contract. There are many stabilizing chemicals that have been used to treat Black Cotton soil, including lime, cement, and fly ash. Recently, it has become clear that using bio-enzymes to stabilize soil has a lot …

Rural Building Base Isolation for Seismic Protection Using LRB and Friction Isolator
Abstract: Over 50% of the population of India, which is still developing, lives in unreinforced masonry buildings. Masonry constructions perform poorly and can collapse suddenly because they are susceptible to seismic loads and loads acting out of plane. Building collapse not only destroys public property but also claims life. It has been demonstrated that base isolation approaches for these types of structures are advantageous; in the event of seismic forces, they …

Performance Evaluation and Structural Integrity Assessment of Critical Components in a Glass Vacuum Lifter Using Static-Structural and Modal Analysis
Abstract: Glass handling operations in construction, manufacturing, and industrial sectors require reliable lifting systems to ensure safe transportation while minimizing the risk of damage and improving operator safety. Vacuum lifters have emerged as an effective solution for handling large and fragile glass panels by generating secure holding forces through suction pads. The structural integrity and dynamic performance of critical components, particularly the suction pad and lifter arm, play a vital role …

MODAL ANALYSIS OF CONVENTIONAL RCC STRUCTURE WITH STEEL BRACING
Abstract: It is a well-known fact that high rise reinforced structures are vulnerable to lateral loadings from things like earthquake and wind stresses. Bracing systems have the excellent benefit of adding just a tiny amount of bulk to the structure while significantly enhancing its performance. Building modelling is done both with and without a bracing system in this study. Analysis that is both linear and dynamic is being done. The structure …
