Experimental Investigation on Tensile and Damping Properties of SiC and Flyash Reinforced Glass Fiber Epoxy Composites

K.B.S.S.Ramakrishna — 2016-10-16

Glass Fiber Reinforced Epoxy(GFRE) composites are one of the most widely used composite materials due to its light weight and higher stiffness, used for aerospace, marine and other industrial applications The investigation aims to develop glass-epoxy composite with addition of SiC and fly ash as fillers with different weight fractions and to characterize the mechanical and damping properties. In this work the SiC and fly ash powder is mixed as fillers with epoxy resin. The SiC and Flyash reinforced glass fiber epoxy composites are fabricated using hand lay-up process by varying the different weight percentages (0%, 2.5%, 5%,7.5%,and10%) of SiC and fly ash. The tensile strength of these specimens are observed experimentally by Universal Testing Machine(UTM).The free vibration behavior of SiC and fly ash reinforced glass fiber epoxy composites is studied on cantilever type boundary conditions using impact hammer technique. The objective of this work is to study the influence of SiC and flyash on glass fiber epoxy composites to know the behavior of tensile and damping properties. Experimental results shows that the tensile and damping properties are improved very much for 10%SiCand Flyash reinforced GFRE composites.

Multipurpose Pedal Operated Power Generation and Water Pumping

Shrinivas Timmanagoudar — 2016-11-16

Diversion is required for basically right success, for the traverse of endeavor ton of constrain is used by using human which is misused. This waste vitality is used for the workplace cycle and to run pump manhandle our attempt appear. We tend to waste gushing imperativeness into a fundamental power. With eco-pleasing methodology In this venture work an endeavor has been made to improvement of theoretical model of water pumping and battery charging cross mentor that is easy to use, easy to attempt and do work out, spare & stores the vitality of the clients muscle endeavors. Once the human works the pedal, the pump is propelled and consequently the water is wired from ground sump to the tank. Subsequently no extra water is squandered. In our venture a demo of this is frequently appeared. At indistinguishable time the associated generator (i.e., is mounted near the V-belt) works and subsequently the vitality is recover into current.This is often wont to charge the mobile exploitation mobile charging circuit. It additionally includes a separate unit known as generator, connected to back wheel of the cycle as just in case of pump through V-belt and simple machine affiliation. This generator additionally converts energy into associate current. The generated current is hold on in battery with the assistance of wires. The stored electrical energy is employed after we are required.

Advanced Course for different Vehicle steering Problems-A Review

Ashraf khan — 2016-09-16

This paper manages creating of an improved course for various Vehicle directing Problems (mVRP). We utilized a philosophy of grouping the given urban areas relying on the quantity of vehicles and each bunch is apportioned to a vehicle. k-Means grouping calculation has been utilized for simple bunching of the urban areas. In along these lines the mVRP has been changed over into VRP which is straightforward in calculation contrasted with mVRP. After bunching, an enhanced course is created for every vehicle in its designated group. Once the bunching had been done and after the urban communities were apportioned to the different vehicles, every bunch/visit was taken as a person Vehicle Routing issue and the progressions of Genetic Algorithm were connected to the group and iterated to get the most ideal estimation of the separation after meeting happens. After the utilization of the different heuristic methods, it was found that the Genetic calculation gave a superior result and a more ideal visit for mVRPs in short computational time than different Algorithms because of the broad pursuit and useful nature of the calculation.
