AIM: Simulation of the transient behaviour of a simple pendulum and creating an animation of its motion GOVERNING EQUATION: A simple pendulum consists of a mass m hanging from a string of length L and fixed at a pivot point P. When displaced to an initial angle and released, the pendulum will swing…

AIM: RANKINE CYCLE SIMULATION THEORY: The Rankine cycle or Rankine Vapor Cycle is the process widely used by power plants such as coal-fired power plants or nuclear reactors. In this mechanism, a fuel is used to produce heat within a boiler, converting water into steam which then expands through a turbine producing…

AIM: Parsing NASA thermodynamic data THEORY: File parsing is basically conversion or extraction of data from raw format(text file). It is the process of analyzing a string of symbols, either in natural language, computer languages or data structures. For programming, this means to convert information represented in one…

AIM:  Plotting P-V diagram and efficiency calculation of Otto Cycle.   GOVERNING EQUATIONS: Otto cycle is a gas power cycle that is used in spark-ignition internal combustion engine (modern petrol engines). It is an air standard cycle which approximates the processes in petrol or diesel…

AIM: To simulate forward kinematic of a 2R-Robotic Arm using MATLAB. GOVERNING EQUATIONS: The robotic arm is used for multiple industrial applications, from welding, material handling, and thermal spraying, to painting and drilling. Forward kinematics refers to the use of the kinematic equations…

AIM:  CURVE FITTING USING MATLAB OBJECTIVE: Linear and cubic polynomial curve fitting to a set of data points. Plotting predicted curves against raw data points.

AIM: DATA ANALYSIS USING PYTHON. Data analysis is the process of collecting and organizing data in order to draw helpful conclusions from it. The process of data analysis uses analytical and logical reasoning to gain information from the data. The main purpose of data analysis is to find meaning in data so that the derived…

AIM: MULTI-BODY DYNAMICS SIMULATION OF INTERNAL GENEVA MECHANISM IN SOLIDWORKS. THEORY: Geneva mechanism is the mechanism through which continuous rotation motion is converted into intermittent rotation motion. In this, the driver wheel rotates continuously and the driven wheel has rotation in regular intervals not continuously.…

It has a very…

AIM: MOTION ANALYSIS OF IC ENGINE PISTON ASSEMBLY MECHANISM. THEORY: In IC Engine, the combustion is driven by Slider Crank Mechanism. Inside the cylinder, the piston performs reciprocating motion which results in compression and expansion of gas inside the cylinder. This motion of the piston is guided by the Slider Crank…

AIM: MOTION ANALYSIS OF IC ENGINE VALVE TRAIN MECHANISM THEORY: Valve Train is a mechanical system in an IC engine that is responsible for controlling the intake and the exhaust of the combustion process. During the intake process, the intake valve opens to let air enter the combustion chamber and during the exhaust process,…
