This study examines the influence of contact factors such as bearing deformation, contact width and contact pressure on cage slide in cylindrical roller bearings. A cylindrical shaped roller bearing test setup is designed in order to determine the operating speed of bearing components under varying working circumstances. Solid and hollow roller bearings are analyzed using finite element technique, and the contact parameters are obtained. The cage slip obtained by experimental work is correlated with the contact parameters of hollow and solid shaped roller bearings. The specific load acting on solid rollers at various angular positions and the corresponding bearing deflection are obtained by FEA and the bearing run out is estimated. A new methodology is developed for deriving the contact mechanics of hollow roller to predict contact pressure and contact width from the roller deflection. The effect of hollowness on these parameters is derived and the corresponding cage slip is correlated. The effect of hollowness on bending and resultant stresses is obtained by numerical and analytical methods to correlate the stability of hollow roller bearing with the percentage of hollowness.

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) has nowadays become a popular 3-dimensional (3D) printing technique for the fabrication of polymeric components with customized and complex-shape design, including biomedical implants. However, the use of this technique is often constrained by the limited number of polymeric materials that can be printed to form the final product. Despite excellent wear resistance and widely used as the acetabular component of a joint prosthesis, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is among such the rarely-found filament material in the market. In this research, preliminary work to fabricate UHMWPE filament for the FFF processing is carried out by using extrusion. The influences of extrusion temperature, addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and rotational speed of the extruder’s screw on the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the extruded UHMWPE filament were determined. The result demonstrated no change in the chemical compositions of the filament due to the processing parameters applied, as noted from the FTIR spectra. The result of the tensile test showed that the highest tensile strength of UHMWPE filaments could reach 23.5 MPa.

The main objective of this research is to identify the variables that affect the level of service (Los) of pedestrians at intersections both (signalized and unsignalized) in shivamogga city. Based on the experiences of the pedestrians at the individual in intersections. A walker’s questionnaire survey was done to gather level of service of pedestrians in terms of protection, comfort, and convenience for every crossing at signalized & unsignalized intersections. Additionally, a video graphic method was employed to scan each crosswalk at the chosen three signalized and two unsignalized intersections. Pedestrian crossing time, pedestrian waiting time, pedestrian holding area, roadway width, and crosswalk surface condition were the key variables taken into account for the construction of the model. For each crossing, a considerable number of pedestrian ratings were collected, these ratings were used as the dependent variables in the analysis. In order to estimate the pedestrian level of service for each intersection's crosswalk, a stepwise multiple linear regression analysis utilizing SPSS software is used to construct a pedestrian Los model.
本研究的主要目的是确定影响希瓦莫加市十字路口(信号灯和非信号灯)行人服务水平(Los)的变量。根据行人在交叉路口的个人经验。对行人进行了问卷调查,以收集行人在有信号灯和无信号灯交叉路口每次过马路时的保护、舒适度和便利性方面的服务水平。此外,还采用视频图示法对所选的三个信号灯路口和两个非信号灯路口的人行横道进行了扫描。行人过街时间、行人等待时间、行人滞留区、道路宽度和人行横道表面状况是构建模型时考虑的关键变量。对于每个交叉口,我们都收集了大量的行人评分,这些评分被用作分析中的因变量。为了估算每个十字路口人行横道的行人服务水平,利用 SPSS 软件进行了逐步多元线性回归分析,以构建行人 Los 模型。

Due to the recent developments in design optimization techniques and advanced construction technologies, uses of castellated beams have become very popular. Castellated beams because of their high strength to weight ratio and low maintenance and painting cost have effectively replaced built-up girders in light to medium constructions for medium to long spans. Longitudinal cuts in the form of openings along the web of castellated beams also results in stronger and stiffer beams than their parent beams without any increase in the self-weight. In this study, attempts are made to compare the behavior of castellated beams with their parent beams. Studies on effect of different web openings on deflection are carried out using finite element analysis.

A wear test was performed under the long-used machine oil sliding environment on Cu-based alloys Al-bronze and α-brass. A pin-on-disc wear testing method was applied where normal pressure of 0.255 to 2.55 MPa and a constant sliding speed of 0.641 m/s were considered. For the assessment dry and fresh machine oil sliding environments were also conducted. The results from the experiment demonstrated that the wear rate and friction coefficient in dry sliding condition were much greater for their direct contact but lower under machine oil due to the reduced roughness by the sealing effect as oil forms a thin lubricating film between the contact surfaces. Used oil displayed some degree of higher wear rate along with friction coefficient due to heavy and harmful chemical compounds in it. Al-bronze performed the better wear properties with lower wear rate and coefficient of friction for all the environments as it achieved the strength through different intermetallic formations. In case of α-brass, it had little effect on wear characteristics. Examined by optical microscopy and SEM analysis, worn surfaces showed that Al-bronze improved wear resistance through mild and smooth abrasive grooves filled with oxides in dry sliding conditions. In case of oil sliding environment, smooth surfaces were created by the resistance of the oil film to the direct contact between the surfaces. Used oil sliding conditions reduced the surface smoothness of the Cu and Cu-based alloys for the presence of damaging chemical compounds.

Thermoelectric technology is one of the fast-developing technologies in the present days due to its excellent heat transfer and heat conversion capabalities. This uses the electromotive force produced by the temperature difference at each end of the device to produce electricity and vice versa. There are various applications developed based on this thermoelectric technology which includes thermoelectric coolers, thermoelectric generators, and thermoelectric air conditioners. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of thermoelectric (TE) technologies, starting with a complete summary of their working principles explaining the effects like Seebeck, Peltier, and Thomson effects, as well as optimization techniques, applications, semi-conductor materials used, and potential future developments.

Several advancements in the field of parallel manipulators have taken place in recent days as they offer many advantages over serial manipulators in terms of accuracy, agility, stiffness, speed, etc. The Parallel Kinematic Machines (PKMs) with lower Degree of Freedom (DoF) joints are being explored for a variety of industrial applications and, in particular, machining applications as these offer more accuracy, high machining capability, and more stiffness. This research work focuses on the modeling, kinematics, workspace and dexterity analyses of a 3DoF Translational PKM having coplanar rails along the Cartesian axes: -X, +X, +Y. Actuation of sliders, independently along the respective rails, offer the tool platform pure translational motion. Fixed length links are used to connect the sliders and tool platform. The PKM under study is modeled in CATIA. Inverse kinematics and workspace analysis are carried out using the performance indices, namely, Workspace Volume Index (WVI) and Global Condition Index (GCI). Attempts are also made to find the optimal dimensions of the PKM through multi-objective optimization using Genetic Algorithms in MATLAB. The methodology presented is helpful to predict the PKM's performance capability while the results obtained are helpful for the development of a physical prototype necessary for further experimental investigations.
