Vibration analysis of Power transmission shafts in automobiles
Abstract: A power transmission shaft is considered in the present work and analyzed for vibrations. It is a shaft supported on single cylinder four stroke engine. Finite element analysis technique is applied to analyze for stresses and their intensities. The analysis is carried out for different engine speeds and later compared the results by using simulation software. It is observed form the results that there are critical speeds at which sudden …

Simultaneous Optimization of MIG Welding Process Parameters Using Taguchi with Principle Component Analysis
Abstract: The aim is to verify the optimum parameters in MIG welding of mild steel for achieving the best result. The three parameters taken for welding are welding current (WC), welding speed (WS) and voltage (V) at three levels. The various parameters which have been used here are modeled by performing experiments in principal component analysis (PCA) based on Taguchi. On applying principle component analysis (PCA),all the input factors are converted …

Life Assessment of a Pre Cracked Cricket Bat
Abstract: Cricket is an interesting game played in many countries wherein a bat made of willow wood is used to strike a leather ball to score runs. This bat fails at a much faster rate in the presence of a crack when compared to a normal bat. In this study, an attempt is made to assess the life of a pre-cracked cricket bat. A crack is initiated in the weak spot …

A Study on Response Parameters of Injection Moulding Process in Polypropylene Plastic using Grey Relational Analysis
Abstract: The purpose of this research is to study multi-response optimization of injection moulding parameters and to verify the optimum parameters of polypropylene for achieving the best result. The four parameters taken for injection moulding are injection pressure, melt temperature, packing pressure and packing time. The experiments are plotted by using L27orthogonal array. Orthogonal array is generated with the help MINITAB-17. The effect of process parameters such as melt temperature, packing …

Modeling of Sintering Process for the Preparation of Magnetic Abrasives by RSM and ANN Models
Abstract: In this study, a modeling has been done for the prediction of the sintering process, as sintering process is one of the best processes to prepare magnetic abrasives. The sintering process is modelled by using RSM and ANN techniques. The ANN model has been developed using a multilayer feed-forward neural network and trained with the help of an error backpropagation learning algorithm based on the generalized delta rule. The indication …
