Investigation, Fabrication and Testing of Spur Gear Using Composite Material
Abstract: Composite materials constitute one of the favorable, efficacious material zones for tomorrow’s sustainable future through identification of materials with higher strength to weight ratio. A composite material is combination of two or more different materials with varied qualities that work together to create a material that is better than the sum of its parts. Therefore, finding some alternative material for various mechanical applications to accelerate the Indian composite industry is …

Design and Structural Analysis of Bracket for Control Unit in Light Combat Aircraft
Abstract: Every aircraft essentially consists of an environmental control system (ECS) which is very much required to control the interior environment for the flight crew and the equipment. The charged air (compressed air) from the seventh stage of compressor unit of engine is tapped used for cooling the cockpit and avionic system. The charged air is made to pass through the various components of the ECS such as pre-cooler, primary heat …

Structural Analysis of a Household Refrigerator by Autodesk Fusion 360
Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to analyse and discuss the stress distribution of a household refrigerator under a given load and decide whether the material of the model is suitable and feasible for household conditions or not. In this paper, static stress analysis is done on the tray of the household refrigerator. The geometric model used for analysis is created using Autodesk Fusion 360 and the analysis is …

Optimization and Structural Integrity of Truck Chassis Using Finite Element Analysis
Abstract: The chassis of a truck is a crucial component, and it acts as a framework for the body and other components of the truck. It must also be strong enough to withstand pressures like shock, twisting, vibration, and more. When building a chassis, having enough bending stiffness for better handling characteristics is just as important as strength. Deflection, maximum stress, and maximum equilateral stress are crucial design factors for the …

Finite Element Simulation Analysis of Concrete Arch dams: A Review
Abstract: The loads on the arch dam and the physical properties of materials of the dam and the bedrock are undefined, and can be designated with random variable. Due to the huge volume, the complex structure of the dam and excessive random variable, the static analysis of the dam is tough. The dam is a higher order statically unspecified structure, and the variation of the temperature obviously marks the stress and …

Thermo-hydraulic Performance of Annular-Finned Double-Pipe Heat Exchanger: Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Metallic and Polymer Composite Tube Wall Materials
Abstract: Double-pipe heat exchangers are central to the process industries — dependable, easily maintained, and straightforward to fabricate. Their conventional form relies on metallic tube materials, most often copper or stainless steel. Both metals conduct heat well, but they are dense, prone to corrosion in aggressive service environments, and increasingly at odds with the light-weighting goals that drive modern system design. Fibre-reinforced polymer composites, epoxy-based materials, and thermally enhanced thermoplastics such …
