Authors | : | Dr. Hiregoudar Yerrennagoudaru || Chandragowda M || Basavana Gouda S |
Abstract: Due to modernization, increase the number of industries and automobiles sector the consumption of petroleum products has increased which leads to fuel crises. It was estimated consumption of diesel fuels in India was 28.30 million tones, which is 43.2% of the consumption of petroleum products. This requirement was met by importing crude petroleum as well as petroleum products, with the expected growth rate of diesel consumption of more than 14% per annum, for this shrinking crude oil reserves and limited refining capacity, as per the research survey petroleum products may available another 30 to 50 years, it has made us to think and focus on search alternate fuels for diesel fuel...........

Title | : | Strengthening Of Structures Using Smart Dampers |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Shalaka Nirantar || Shrikant Joshi |
Abstract: This paper disuses the use of magnetorheological smart dampers for strengthening the structures. Magnetorheological damper fabricated using magnetorheological fluid and a magnetic coil was tested using an exciter. It was observed that the damper attenuates vibration amplitudes effectively and is capable of generating large damping forces as the current input is varied. Such smart devices can be used to strengthen tall buildings, towers, historical buildings or similar man-made structures against wind or seismic loads using semi-active control. Thus, the stability of the structures can be ensured and the catastrophic failures can be prevented by installing these dampers at the appropriate locations.

Abstract: The aim of my work is to study the hardness that affects the welding joint of dissimilar metals. Stainless Steel 304 was welded to mild steel using a metal inert gas welding which also known as gas metal arc is welding with the help of filler wire of stainless steel and 0.8 0mm diameter. Argon gas was used as shielding gas in this process. Dissimilar metals welding have great scope in advanced technology nowadays owing to their high hardness, high strength and corrosion resistance properties.........

Abstract: On constant hunt for performance oriented cars, aerodynamics of cars is an important research topic that cannot be neglected as it plays a pivotal role in stability, handling and fuel efficiency. The scope of the project is to gain insight into the phenomenon that occurs during the interaction between the fluid that is air and the car as the latter propels itself forward. We have simulated real world conditions for original (Swift Dzire) and modified models of the car in an attempt to reduce the overall drag coefficient of the car.
Key words: Drag,Flow Separation, Lift, Spoiler, Pressure Drag, Wake, Swift Dzire
