Experimental Investigation on Shear & Flexural Behavior of GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Beam

Abstract: Reinforced concrete (RC) beams are among the most commonly used structural elements in civil engineering structures. However, the long-term durability of conventional steel reinforcement is often affected by corrosion when exposed to aggressive environmental conditions, which can significantly reduce the service life and structural performance of concrete members. In recent years, Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer…

Design, Development, and Testing of 2-Phase Separator

By Ravindra S. Kolhe, Shivram S. Jagtap, H.D. Gagare, P.N. Aher, P.R. Sanap, and P.V. Agwan

Abstract: As the pressure vessel operates under high internal pressure, the choice of material and accuracy indesign play a vital role in ensuring its safety and reliability. Proper design is essential because anyfailure in a pressure vessel can lead to serious hazards, financial losses, and operational shutdowns.In compliance with the ASME Code (Section VIII, Division 1)…

Design and Finite Element Analysis of Go-Kart Tubular Chassis Using Ansys

By Ajith K., Manujesh B J, Varun Kumar, and Hithesh O.

Abstract: The design of a go-kart chassis involves the vehicle’s performance, safety, and handling characteristics. The present work focuses on the conceptual design, modeling, and structural analysis of a go-kart chassis aimed at achieving an optimal balance between strength, weight, and driver comfort using FEA software ANSYS. A detailed chassis model was developed based on ergonomic…

A Review: Performance analysis of overlapping shear keys in box girder bridges using finite element based software

By Shubhangi R. Kulkarni, Dr. S. S. Kadam, and A. A. Kamble

Abstract: Abstract - Box girder bridges are widely used for long-span constructions due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and structural efficiency. A fundamental component in these bridges is the shear key which allows for effective transfer of loads between bridge segments and upholds the overall structural performance through the different load cases. Overlapping shear keys are…
