Design, Description and Analysis of Innovative Leveraged Propelled Disabled Utility Chair
Abstract: This paper aims at introducing an innovative “Disabled Utility Chair” (DUC). Traditional wheelchair/tricycle for disabled prove not to be that much comfortable and efficient or dynamically efficient, which must be of prime concern in this regard. Team surveyed various rehabilitation center and asked basic problem by the user basic features such as turning radius, space for goods, comfort conditions for long sitting remain absent. In India, varying torque, speed and …

Evaluation of Test Performed on Suspension by the Use of ZnO as Blending Agent for Measurement of Mechanical Characteristics
Abstract: This paper entails about the analogy performed on the rear unit-spring loaded hydraulic damper. The focus is laid upon the measurement of mechanical properties when the suspension unit is preloaded. Dynamic load test rig is employed for the accurate and precise measurement of values generated during the test. The suspension unit is preloaded with some initial velocity and the corresponding values are being generated. ZnO as a blending agent along …

Numerical Formulation of Solidification of Aluminum Casting in 2-D Green Sand Mould
Abstract: Unsteady numerical simulation of steady state and unsteady state conduction heat transfer has been done for solidification of pure Aluminium in green sand mould. As during the solidification heat transfer by conduction will dominate over convection and radiation. Heat conduction equation in two-dimensional Cartesian co-ordinate governs the problem. Convective boundary condition has been considered at the interface of the casting part and mould cavity. Heat conduction equation in unsteady state …

Numerical Study of Lid Driven Cavity at Different Reynolds Number
Abstract: The present work focuses on flow inside a lid-driven cavity; main aim is to obtain the velocity field in steady state condition using Navier-Stoke equations. Navier-stoke equation has been converted into algebraic form using finite difference method (FDM). Pertinent parameter of the present study is Reynolds number. Stream-vorticity approach has been adopted to solve the physical problem. Different Reynold numbers and grid sizes have been studied. Peaks of the velocity …

Effect of TMT Bar Lugging on Steel Reinforcement Failure Mode under Monotonic Loading
Abstract: Thermo-mechanically treated (TMT) ribbed bars modify the overall progress of failure in reinforced concrete. The ribs maintain anchorage after friction on the rest of the bar is eliminated during deformation, taking up the ultimate compressive load. This however, is inadvertently jeopardized by the stress concentration effect of the rib geometry. This paper analyses the extent to which some of the geometric forms of bar lugging affect the prevalence of ductile …
