Projects

DESIGNING TANKS MADE OF VARIOUS MATERIALS (COMPOSITES & METALS) & CALCULATING APRIL 2017

THEIR WEIGHTS

Given the factor of safety the goal of the project was to identify the materials that will yield the lowest weight of the storage system

Various materials considered were - (a) Glass/epoxy; (b) Graphite/epoxy; (c) Kevlar/epoxy; (d) Aluminum; and (e) Steel

For the composites, Tsai-Hill failure theory was used, and von Mises’s yield criterion was used for metals.

STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION USING TOPOLOGY AND SIZE OPTIMIZATION MARCH 2017

Any design process starts with a concept, in structural optimization, the initial concept usually is the determination of material distribution in the design domain and to come up with the best possible layout to implement. In this project 99-Line Topology Optimization codes by O.Sigmund and CALFEM Toolbox in integrated to develop an optimum weight design by conceptualizing a layout and its further refinement.

CREATING A MATLAB PROGRAM TO ANALYSE A UNIAXIAL SPECIMEN OF A QUAS-ISOTROPIC MARCH 2017

GLASS/EPOXY LAMINATE

Simulate the test using your computer program to determine:

First ply to fail, and corresponding load Nxcr, and corresponding mid-plane strain εx0cr

Through progressive failure of the plies, ultimate load Nxu, and burst pressure

Plots Load-Displacement (F-u0) diagram until ultimate failure

The MATLAB program is versatile, and various factors such as material, material properties or number of plies may be changed to obtain the above-mentioned results

ANALYSIS OF CANTILEVER BEAM USING ABAQUS CAE OCTOBER 2016

• Studied the behavior of beam under different loading conditions with the help of different types of elements such as constant strain triangles, Linear rectangular element, Quadratic triangular and Quadratic rectangular element

• Compared the finite element solution with exact solution and determined the error in each element type
