Propeller Shaft Energy Recovery: A Pathway to Sustainable Power Generation
Abstract: A vehicle, such as a large truck, can produce electricity for powering a hybrid engine or recharging batteries by using an electricity-generating driveshaft. The driveshaft that generates electricity is composed of coils of copper wire that wrap around the magnetised driveshaft, which acts as the rotor of a generator for electricity. The magnetised driveshaft rotates as the hybrid car moves, producing an electrical field that copper wire coils catch and …

Failure Analysis of Engine Crankshaft by Finite Element Method Analysis Approach- A Review
Abstract: The crankshaft, a mechanical part with intricate geometry that converts reciprocating motion into rotational motion, is essential to the operation of the engine. The connecting rod serves as the link between the crankshaft and the piston. The primary bearings, which are situated in the crankcase, support the crankshaft journals. The most crucial phase for an efficient engine design and an increase in engine performance in an internal combustion engine is …

A study on effects of mass flow rate and compressor pressure ratio on gas turbine cycle performance
Abstract: Gas turbines are rotating machines that work based on the energy of gases from combustion. Each gas turbine includes a compressor to compress air, a combustion chamber to mix air with fuel and ignite it, and a turbine to convert the energy of the hot, compressed gases into mechanical energy. Gas turbines have many advantages over steam turbines, such as small volume, quick installation, quick start-up, easy operation and the …

Vibration Analysis of Sandwich Beams Using 3-Noded Beam Element
Abstract: One-dimensional 3-noded finite element model is developed in this paper for the vibrational analysis of composite sandwich beam for various boundary conditions, using the efficient layer wise zigzag theory. To come across the convergence necessities for the weak integral formulation, fifth power Hermite interpolation is utilized for the transverse displacement and quadratic interpolation is utilized for the axial displacement and shear rotation. Element every node has four degrees of freedom. …

Assumptions, Limitations and Applications of Bernoulli’s Equation
Abstract: The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, also called “beam theory”, is a condensed version of the linearisotropic theory of elasticity and can be used to predict the load-carrying and deflection properties ofbeams. It was initially stated around the year 1750, but it was not widely used until the Eiffel Towerand the Ferris Wheel were built in the late 19th century. It immediately became an engineering pillarand a catalyst for the Second Industrial …

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 …

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
Abstract: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common form of positional vertigo that occurs due to disorder of the inner ear’s vestibular system. A total of 17–42% of patients are diagnosed with BPPV every year. The prevalence of BPPV increases with age and is seven times higher in those older than 60 years. BPPV is most commonly idiopathic but also related to advanced age, ear disorders and head injury. …
