The mini torsion device that will be designed for this senior design project will apply a torsional load to a small cylindrical sample with a diameter of 5 mm or 6 mm. The device will need to fit under an optical microscope and will not be able to exceed the weight limits of the sample stage on the optical microscope so that Raman microscopy can be performed on the sample while it is under a torsional load. The device will also need to collect data and calculate the angle of twist of the sample.…

variable frequency eddy current sorter (VFECS) prototype to separate different nonferrous metal and alloy of size smaller than 1 inches. VEFECS is a solid state technology which operates at variable high frequency range between 1 – 10 KHz. The magnetic field frequency plays an important role in sorting of different nonferrous metals and alloys from each…

more than anything, so I will incorporate ways of how my claim can improve their job, and how their job may change due to the shift. As my intended major is mechanical engineering, it is important for me to research problems in mechanical engineering field, because these might be the problems I will face in the future, so it is important for me to not only be aware of the problems, but what I should do now to prepare for them. As of now, I think the most effective genre to argue and address my…

The casting was great, at least in regards to Tom Hanks, Sally Field and Gary Sinise. Their character portrayals could not have been more honest and believable. Though the film is seen with Gump’s childish view, there is still an underlying sense of knowledge and understanding felt by the viewer. Gump’s innocence allows…

For offshore areas Recital in the contract provides as follows:- By ideals of Article 297 of the Constitution of India, Petroleum in its common state in the Regional Waters and the Mainland Rack of India is vested in the Union of India.

Stray current corrosion: Stray current is the current which occurs when conductors are placed between high magnetic or electric fields. Presence of stray currents over the PCB surface can generate corrosion problems. The below figure 5 shows severe corrosion damage to micro wave module for 24 GHz. This equipment is built in controlled conditions where water condensation is possible. After few hours of use, severe corrosion was seen on the surface. Figure 5. Stray current corrosion of a micro…

Rotor and touchdown bearing models Fig. 1 features the case study of the high-speed rotor. The photo was taken after manufacturing of the electric motor part, when the rotor was carried to the laboratory for an experimental modal analysis. During normal operation, the rotor is supported by AMBs. In the dropdown event, the rotor is in contact with touchdown bearings at both ends of the rotor. Fig. 1. Rotor under investigation. In this work, the finite element model of the rotor employs…

The morning after the victory, Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel made the announcement that the parade will take place the following Friday. Leaving Wrigley Field, the busses full of players and staff would be taken throughout Chicago to Grant Park, where the rally would take place. The day became an unofficial holiday in Chicago, with all schools having a record number of absentees. Nothing was going to stop…

What is the meaning of success? Success means different things to different people.

Malcolm Gladwell, the author of Outliers, believes that choices by people do not influence their…
