The Padma Multipurpose Bridge (PMB) is one of the biggest megaprojects Bangladesh connecting third country with capital city, Dhaka. infrastructure expected to produce considerable uplift on nation’s transport system, national and regional economy, employment, household income, ultimately, poverty reduction. From construction river management points view, it most difficult engineering innovatio...

Most robot manipulators are poor at measuring and controlling forces, especially force of contact. At the innermost control loops these force estimates are needed to control compliance. At a more general level identifying when contact occurs, and the forces involved, are elemental requirements in building cognitive information that allow robots to adapt to an unstructured environment. This pape...

Abstract Topology optimization and Generative Design are two methods to create volume or stiffness optimized parts they used more frequently nowadays. However, the specific often not well described connection between these is clearly explained. In this article, a force-flow based topology process has been explained in detail extended with function be able use as tool. The proposed algorithm tes...

-Tall latticed steel towers are being pursued for the purpose of microwave transmission, T.V. transmission etc. Antennas are fixed at the top of the tower for transmission. The height of the towers may range from 50m to 250m. The structural form consists of latticed steel work, suitable bracing and suitable foundation for the tower legs. Usually bolted connections are provided for the joints. M...

The sea wave causes excess resistance which is out of scope of calm water resistance. The total wave force in horizontal plane is divided into “Added Resistance” and “Drift Force”. In this study, based on Gerritsma and Beuckelman[3] hypothesis a computer program has been developed for calculation of added resistance and drift force at various ship speeds and various head...

An airplane design is undoubtedly an extremely complex technical problem. The complexity of the problem is hundred times over a complexity of e.g. T.V. and a car design. Manufacturers have to consider many different customers ́ requirements. Practically it means that every piece of manufactured aircraft has specific and different requirements. In an aircraft design the changes usually involve su...
