-In the present work an attempt is made to evaluate the suitability of composite material such as E-Glass/Epoxy and HMCarbon/Epoxy for the purpose of automotive transmission applications. A one-piece composite drive shaft for automobile is designed and analyzed using ANSYS software respectively for E-Glass/ Epoxy and HM-Carbon/Epoxy composites with the objective of minimization of weight of the...

Guaranteeing transaction semantics in a highly available and fault tolerant manner is desirable to application developers. Besides, it is a very valuable feature for database-backed applications. SHAFT is a pessimistic concurrency control protocol for partitioned and replicated data, which can be distributed across multiple datacenters. Laying its basis on the Paxos algorithm, the SHAFT protoco...

The aim of this study was to quantify and explain the effect of shaft stiffness on the dynamics of golf drives. Twenty golfers performed swings with two clubs designed to differ only in shaft bending stiffness. Wrist kinematics and clubhead presentation to the ball were determined using optical motion capture systems in conjunction with a radar device for capturing ball speed, launch angle, and...

A highly effective surgical technique is required for laparoscopic low rectal transection without sufficient distal margins when ultralow anterior resection (ULAR) with a stapler is a technical challenge for laparoscopic surgery. We report a retrograde single stapling technique (RSST) for laparoscopic ULAR. Total mesorectal excision is performed laparoscopically. After the anal side of the tumo...

The torsional stress is caused by interaction between electrical transient air-gap torque by electrical disturbances and mechanical torque of turbine-generator shaft system. If a transient shaft torque exceeds a certain threshold, the loss of fatigue life occurs and in the end it is possible to happen shaft failure. This paper discusses that which factors can damage to turbine-generator shaft a...

In the last years, injection of reducing gases in shaft and preparation zone blast furnace has been proposed as a decarbonization option, mainly associated to oxyfuel furnaces top gas recycling configurations. However, Rist diagram, which is one preferred methodologies characterize operation furnaces, not valid evaluate these new options. this article we propose generalization operating line me...

Abstract The torsional vibration of marine propulsion shafting has been studied for more than a century. With abundant research achievements and experiences, a systematic approach of vibration calculation has been put forward for ship industrial applications. However, literature review indicates that when processing the gear transmission in the shaft line, the meshing motion has been treated as...

It’s been known for many years that thermal temperature gradients across a rotor can alter the amplitude and phase of synchronous vibration. This is due to bowing of the shaft caused by a temperature difference between one side of the shaft and the other. The earliest published recognition of this phenomenon was by Newkirk [1], where the temperature difference was a result of frictional heating...

The calculation of torsional oscillations in crankshaft-propeller systems is carried out by a new method which reduces considerably the numerical work in the case of in-line engines. The theory is briefly outlined and the reader is referred to another publication of the author for further details. Three applications follow. In the first, all six natural frequencies and the corresponding modes a...
