Finite Element Analysis and Design Improvement of Aerospace Composite Hinges
(2018-08-13)
Hinges are the most commonly used mechanical bearings to connect 2 objects for relative rotational motion. Modern day aerospace hinges are generally made using either Aluminum, Steel or bronze. The study analyzes the use ...
INFLUENCE OF RELATIVE DENSITY AND MICROSTRUCTURAL ANISOTROPY ON THE GLOBAL ELASTIC PROPERTIES OF CELLULAR STRUCTURES
(2017-05-05)
The favorable strength-to-weight ratio of cellular solids makes them ideal for structural applications. With the advent of additive manufacturing, the fabrication of complex cellular structures is becoming a reality. It ...
Finite Element Analysis of Composite Reactor Pressure Vessel
(2018-05-16)
Reactor Pressure Vessel is the container designed to hold gases or liquids above atmospheric pressure. The focus of this study is to develop Finite Element Model to predict the performance of composite reactor pressure ...
FEA OF CARBON COMPOSITE AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR STEEL (A992) IN CASE OF SQUARE OR RECTANGULAR HOLLOW CROSS-SECTIONS AS BEAMS AND COLUMNS
(2018-05-16)
Improvement to an existing design is an ongoing and never-ending process in every field. The improvement can be in a myriad of areas like an increase in strength, reduction in weight, stiffness to a loading condition and ...

TOWARDS ARTIFICIAL PROPRIOCEPTION IN THE MANDIBULAR FULL ARCH FIXED IMPLANT PROSTHESIS
(2017-01-17)
Full arch fixed implant prosthesis has been one of the most effective treatment modalities for fully edentulous patients over the last few decades. However, due to lack of proprioception occlusal overload is experienced ...
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF WOODEN AND HYRBID COMPOSITE CROSSARMS OF AN ELECTRIC UTILITY POLE
(2018-01-08)
Most of the cross arms in the country are made from wood. Wood, although easily accessible, has its own defects. Environmental effects which includes the expansion and contraction of wood over the years which will disrupt ...
Multi-mesh reduced-order basis method for finite element analysis
(2017-08-16)
Reduced order modeling of differential equations parametrized over a parameter space can be used to accelerate optimization and parameter estimation problems. The method of snapshots or reduced order basis is well established ...
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF WOODEN AND COMPOSITE CROSSARM OF AN ELECTRIC UTILITY POLE
(2017-05-12)
Currently, most of the crossarms existing in the nation are made of wood. However, wood has a set of negative features like shorter life span due to environmental cracking, damages by insects and birds. Secondly, an ...
