Analysis for Pier of Railway Bridge
Abstract: The load-bearing capacity of a pier is determined by the combined effects of the load from the train and the self-weight of the girder it supports. The bending of the pier is influenced by its height, which necessitates a careful assessment of the pier's thickness across various girder spans and pier heights. This evaluation ensures that the pier can withstand the imposed loads while adhering to permissible deflection limits. By …

Comparison of Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Cascaded H-Bridge Inverter with Single DC Source
Abstract: This paper presents the comparison of traditional cascaded H-bridge inverter with isolated DC sources (symmetrical arrangement) and the proposed cascaded H-bridge inverter with single DC source (asymmetrical arrangement). Also, fundamental switching strategy is used to generate the control pulses. A conventional cascaded H-bridge (CHB) inverter requires ‘n’ numbers of DC sources for 2n + 1 levels. Without requiring transformers, the scheme proposed here allows the use of a single DC …

Ascendancy of connecting assymmetrical r.c. towers using sky bridges in improving the dynamic response
Abstract: Structures constructed to serve similar purposes adjacently, are often connected to each other. These connections may be sometimes in the form of sky-bridges. Connecting the structures with each other does not cause any modification in the behaviour of the structures in the static condition, but such modification may cause huge effects on the structural behaviour under dynamically activated condition. This article basically deals with study of connected structures, when connected …

Enhancement of Cable Profile and Deck Arrangement in Cable Stayed Bridge A Review
Abstract: Cable-stayed bridges are usually self-anchored structures and therefore offer a good solution at locations where the soil conditions are not good and as a consequence the cost of the foundations for an earth-anchored structure like a typical suspension bridge would become excessive. To overcome these problems, it is necessary to find a new type of material in lieu of steel. Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has many excellent properties, such as …

Study of Cascaded H Bridge Multilevel Inverter
Abstract: The inverters are now-a-days used broadly. Inverters are classified as two level inverters and multilevel inverters. There are too many limitations; conventional inverters at high power and high voltage applications. So, multilevel inverters become useful for high power and high voltage applications due to their increased number of levels at the output voltage. The harmonics are reduced by increasing the number of levels and output voltage has a tendency to-end-up …
