This paper investigates the GENSIS air spring suspension system equivalence to a passive suspension system. The SIMULINK simulation together with the OptiY optimization is used to obtain the air spring suspension model equivalent to passive suspension system, where the car body response difference from both systems with the same road profile inputs is used as the objective function for optimiza...

Measurements have been conducted in an anechoic chamber for comparison to current linear acoustic theory for radiation directivity from a cylindrical pipe with toneholes. Time-delay spectrometry using an exponentially swept sine signal was employed to determine impulse responses at points external to the experimental air column. This technique is effective in clearly isolating nonlinear artifac...

Pulsating heat pipe is an efficient heat exchange device which is being used for cooling and heating recovery. In the present work, we made a closed-loop pulsating heat pipe with six U-turns and we used water in our system. Moreover the use of water-Fe3O4 nanofluid was studied with two different filling ratios 40% and 50% and 1% mass concentration. At the end we calculated heat resistance and h...

Characterizing transient flow is not a trivial venture. It provides an excellent challenge for a senior mechanical engineering lab class. This project aimed at developing a new physical system for such a class based on the benefits and short comings of the previously used physical system. A physical system was developed to vary key parameters, such as run length and pipe diameter. Pipe diameter...

A hybrid system which combines Self Organizing Maps and Case Based Reasoning is presented and apply to Structural Assessment. Self Organizing Maps are trained as a classification tool in order to organize the old cases in memory with the purpose of speeding up the Case Based Reasoning process. Three real structures have been used: An aluminium beam, a pipe section and a long pipe.

With the objective of contrasting performance between STREAMS and legacy approaches to system facilities, a comparison is made between the tested performance of the Linux legacy pipe implementation and the STREAMS-based pipe implementation using the Linux Fast-STREAMS package [? ]. 1 Background Pipes have a rich history in the UNIX operating system. Present on early Bell Laboratories UNIX Versi...

Pigging is a significant part of a pipeline system that is required for production and operational maintenance. However, if the bend is not set properly, it is likely to cause congestion, which could cause the pipeline system to deviate from its normal operation or even lead to cracks or explosions due to overloaded stress. Due to the potential risk mentioned above, this report aims to build an...

Abstract The analyzed electrohydraulic servo valve is jet pipe type, is one of the mechatronics component used for precision flow control application. It consists of several precision and delicate components. For the analysis the jet pipe assembly of servovalve is identified and conducted a direct-solution steady-state dynamic analysis to study the response of the system for harmonic excitation...
