Analytical Computation and Finite Element Analysis of Failure Criterion of a Composite Hollow Driveshaft Under Torsion
Abstract: ABSTRACT Drive shafts for power transmission are used in many applications, including machine tool, cooling towers, pumping sets, aerospace, and automobiles. In the metallic shaft design, the size of the shaft’s cross-section can be determined by the value of torque and the allowable shear stress of the material. There has been extensive work on the design of hollow composite drive shaft as per the literature survey. Many have focused on …

Analysis of Fixed Offshore Platform Deck using Acceleration - Deflection Resonance Method
Abstract: Steel plate is commonly used as the flooring plate for fixed offshore platform Deck and there are several existing methods for analyzing the steel plate. In this research acceleration-displacement resonance method is developed for analyzing plate. The plate is first analyzed considering arbitrary uniformly distributed and point load with an all-round simply support. The method involves transformation of bi-harmonic equation into acceleration- deflection ratio ( R_xx). From the study, the …
