Experimental Analysis on Generation of Electricity Through Braking System (Regenerative Braking System)
Abstract: In conventional braking system the motion is retarded or stopped by absorbing kinetic energy by friction, by making the contact of the moving body with frictional rubber pad (called brake liner) which causes the absorption of kinetic energy, and this is wasted in form of heat in surroundings. Each time we brake, the momentum of vehicle is absorbed that it has gained by it and to re-accelerate the vehicle. As …

A Study on Method and Modelling of Structural Analysis and Finite Elements: A Review
Abstract: The finite element method (FEM) or finite element analysis (FEA), is a numerical method usually employed for solving engineering (structural mechanics) and mathematical physics problems. Generally, the analytical solution of these problems require the solution to boundary value problems for partial differential equations. Specimens are usually tested and analysed using finite element method (FEM) for investigating the behaviour of square concrete columns confined by fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) and sheets.

Numerical Study on the Effect of Ball Baffles in Reducing Sloshing Loads in Ship Tanks
Abstract: Sloshing is the free surface motion of a liquid in a partially filled container under periodic motion. Liquid sloshing will result in dynamic pressure on the walls of the container causing large deformations to the tank as well as the supporting structures and carrier. This dynamic pressure on the tank walls due to slosh waves are conventionally mitigated in the tanks of very large crude oil carrier (VLCC) ships by …
