Evaluation of Pulley Performance, Pulley Machine, and its Benefits and Drawbacks
Abstract: A rope is simply looped over a grouping of one or more wheels to create a pulley, which makes it simpler to lift anything. The force exerted by the body can be effectively multiplied by the use of a pulley. A wheel with a flexible rope, rope, cable, chain, or belt on its rim is referred to as a "pulley.". It is simpler to raise objects when using pulleys since …

Electro Magnetic Force based Train
Abstract: The swift advancement in transportation technology encouraged scientists to seek out faster and eco-friendly propulsion techniques. The majority of transportation systems depend on mechanical engines and wheel-axle setups that generate friction, noise and energy dissipation. Because of these drawbacks there is potential for propulsion approaches. A contemporary technique is propulsion, which utilizes electromagnetic forces rather, than traditional mechanical movement. This research paper addresses the design and operation of a train …
