Analysis and Optimization of Disc brake of Motor cycle
Abstract: Automobile braking system is one of the most important mechanical devices. The disc brake system is a device for slowing or stopping the rotation of a wheel. To stop the vehicle, friction material in the form of brake pads is forced mechanically, hydraulically, pneumatically or electromagnetically against both sides of the disc. Friction causes the disc brake and attached wheel to slow or stop. Generally, the cost of disc rotor …

Design of C-Frame for Assembly of Mechanical Power Press
Abstract: The aim is to generate the model for assembly operation known as mechanical press machine. Using the concept of reverse engineering, the C-frame has been designed considering stress distribution, deflection, and design specification. Thus, a reciprocating piston is used which apply force upon component with the help of a special tool mounted on the piston. The optimum objective of this study is to observe the finite element modeling of ‘C’ …

Development of Metal-Skin Sandwich Panel of Cement Reinforced Polypropylene Composite as Hub Material
Abstract: Cement reinforced polypropylene based composite material has shown significant potential for industrial applications recently. This work is in line with the material design and fabrication of metal-skinned sandwich panels; an application of the cement filled polypropylene composite material. Different compositions of cement filled composite materials are selected and few metal-skinned sandwich panels are fabricated where aluminum (Al) and galvanized iron (GI) sheets are used as skin materials. Several experiments are …

Study of Gear Tooth Profile Strength Increment:A Review
Abstract: One of the most important elements in mechanical engineering design; are gears. Gears arethe most durable and rugged among all mechanical drives and can be used for transmittingmaximum power with greater efficiency. Gears are used in no. of industrial applications.Strength of any gear depends upon the profile of gear tooth. Wear and friction between twogears are also dependent on the involute tooth profile which directly affect the bending andfatigue strength …

Study on Crankshaft Failure: A Review
Abstract: Crankshafts are power shafts of engines with a complex geometry having crankwebs and crankpins. Crankshafts axis is offset from the centre. It converts the linear (reciprocating) motion of pistons into a rotary motion that can be transmitted through a drive line system. A crankshaft is subjected to several forces that vary in magnitude and direction (multiaxial loading). Bending stress and shear stress due to twisting are also common stresses acting …

DESIGN OF MACHINE SHAFT IN FATIGUE LOADING BY USING C++ PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE
Abstract: In the case of power transmission sometimes that was a fluctuating or repetitive load comes on drive shaft or driven shaft in working condition. At that time shaft as well as gear or pulley which are mounted on the gear shaft is also comes under the fatigue loading. To determine the shaft diameter under dynamic condition we should consider length of shaft, diameter of pulley and gear, tension on pulley …

Static Analysis of Deep Groove Ball Bearing using ANSYS
Abstract: Bearings play a vital role in motion and load transmission. During its entire life it is subjected to varying axial and radial loads, its use extending from automobiles to ceiling fans, elevator doors etc. To ensure the proper functioning of the components the bearing has to be made such that it can withstand the varying loads and keep the components in smooth working conditions. In this research work, efforts are …
