    The Quicklift: Redefining Car Jack Dynamics & Design

    Abstract: A Jack is a tool that aids in raising the vehicles without considerable physical efforts and thereby reducing strain injuries. This paper is about designed model of Jack and performing the static analysis (viz:structural) with the help of Solid works software. The outcomes obtained demonstrates that jack can be used safely. Additional improvements to be made in the jack is by modifying the vertical cylindrical bar so that it can …

    Review on Severe Plastic Deformation Techniques for Bulk Materials: Deformation Behavior and Properties

    Abstract: This paper presents a detailed review of the efficient application of Severe Plastic Deformation for the fabrication of ultra-fine-grained and nanostructured crystalline bulk materials. Severe Plastic Deformation allows substantial grain refinement while largely preserving the original dimensions of the workpiece, making it especially suitable for ductile materials capable of sustaining very high strains under elevated hydrostatic pressure prior to failure. The study investigates the grain refinement mechanisms involved in Severe …

    Evaluation on the Mechanical Strength of TIG Welded 6061Aluminium Alloy Joints

    Abstract: Aluminum alloy Al-6061 is extensively used in aerospace, automotive, and marine industries due to its excellent mechanical properties, lightweight nature, and corrosion resistance. However, welding this alloy presents challenges such as porosity, hot cracking, and strength reduction in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, known for its precision and quality, is commonly employed for joining Al-6061. This study investigates the tensile strength of TIG-welded butt joints of …

    Finite Element Modelling of Contact Stresses in Helical Gear Systems

    Abstract: Helical gears are widely used in modern power‐transmission systems because of their high load‐carrying capacity, smooth meshing action, and increased overlapping of gear teeth. However, the design of helical gear pairs is constrained by contact stresses generated at the mating tooth surfaces, which can lead to surface fatigue (pitting), micro-cracking, and ultimately gear failure. Traditional analytical methods, such as those of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) or International Organization …

    Eco-Design Approaches in Modern Machine Tool Construction

    Abstract: In the contemporary landscape of manufacturing, sustainability is no longer optional; it is imperative. Within this context, machine tool construction presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities: these heavy, energy-intensive pieces of capital equipment operate across long lifecycles, consume substantial embodied energy and materials, and eventually require disposal or remanufacture. This study explores eco-design approaches tailored specifically to modern machine tools, covering the full lifecycle from material sourcing and …

    The Fundamental Premises of Efficient Linear Regression and Applying Regression

    Abstract: Linear regression is a statistical technique for estimating the value of a dependent variable from an independent variable. Linear regression is a way to assess how two variables are related. A dependent variable is predicted using this modelling technique based on one or more independent factors. Many analyses are based on linear regression. Sometimes the data must be changed to satisfy the needs of the analysis, or extra room must …
