Analysis of Elastic and Elasto-Plastic Behaviour of A588 Structural Steel Beam
Abstract: In the present work, an elastic and elasto-plastic behaviour of ASTM A588 structural beam of I-section has been carried out. The cantilever beam model of I-cross section has been created in the finite element simulation software ABAQUS. In the elastic behaviour study, the model has been simulated in the elastic region. After that, the model has been extended to an elasto- plastic analysis by incorporating the plastic strain in the …

Design and Fabrication of Trammel Balls
Abstract: Transportation of water plays a vital role in the survival of a growing population. If the scarcity of water is one major issue, transportation of water using tankers have their own share. Water in a partially filled container, when induced with external energy (motion), generates slosh and surge. Both slosh and surge effects work as a resistive factor during transportation. To eliminate the same, few holes are drilled at pre-desired …
