The Biomechanical Impact of Slipper Sole Compliance on Lumbar Spine Load: A Quantitative Analysis of Indoor Footwear Ergonomics
Abstract: Abstract The global shift toward remote work has significantly increased the duration of indoor footwear usage, yet the ergonomic standards for slippers remain critically under-researched compared to athletic or industrial footwear. While "high-compliance" or soft slippers are traditionally marketed for immediate comfort, excessive mechanical softness may lead to foot instability, altered gait kinetics, and subsequent compensatory stress on the lumbar spine. This study aims to quantify the correlation between varying …

Dynamic and Fatigue Analysis of Engine Crank Shaft by Using FEM Approach
Abstract: The internal combustion (ICE) engine crankshaft is a high-volume manufacturing component with a complicated shape. This converts the piston's reciprocating displacement into the crank's rotating motion. In this research, an effort is made to investigate how geometry modification might increase the fatigue life of a single-cylinder engine crankshaft. SOLIDWORK software was used to construct the modelling of the original and optimised crankshaft, which was then imported for analysis into ANSYS …

An Analysis of Effect of Eccentricity on Design of Isolated Footings
Abstract: Footings are frequently exposed to moments from columns in addition to the axial loads. The presence of convinced amount of eccentricity of loading in the footing persuades moment on footing. A cautious consideration has to be given to the presence of eccentricity, while performing the analysis and design of such footings, as an increase in eccentricity beyond certain limit reduces a considerable area of footing ineffective to fight the stresses …

Optimization of 3D Printed Two-wheeler Suspension System
Abstract: The suspension is the very important criteria of a two-wheeler in order to improve the comfort for the operator or rider of the two-wheeler. In most of the two-wheeler’s shock absorbers are used as a suspension system to smooth out or damp shock impulse and dissipate energy by use of spring’s compression and relaxation property. The system consists of a spring which allows the frame and vehicle intact while riding …

A Review: Performance analysis of overlapping shear keys in box girder bridges using finite element based software
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 becoming increasingly popular because they greatly enhance inter-segment connections, which decrease relative displacements. This paper …
