A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.

BIFILAR SUSPENSION
AIM:
To determine the radiusof gyrationof givenbarbyusingbifilarsuspension.
DESCRIPTION: OF SET UP:
A uniform rectangular section bar is suspended form the pendulum support frame by two
parallel cords. Top ends of cords are attached to hooks filed at the top. The other ends are secured in the
bifilar bar.It is possible to change the length of cord or decrease its width.
The suspension may also use to determine the radius of gyration of anybody under
investigation the body bolted to the centre. Radius of gyration of the combined bar and body is then
determined.
THEORY:
Bifilar suspension
In bifilar suspension a weight W is suspended by two long flexible strings.
Initially the support and the bar AB are parallel.The bar AB is given a slight twist Ɵ and then released.
Let the strings are displaced by an angles Φ1 and Φ2.If l1 and l2 are distance of two ends from the centre of
gravity G, then tension TA and TB can be written as,
TA = (Wl2)/(l1 + l2) and TB = (Wl1)/(l1 + l2) …………(1)
Since the Φ1and Φ2 angles are small, so the effects of vertical acceleration can be neglected.Only the
horizontal components of tension will be considered which are given as
TA Φ1 and TB Φ2 and both are perpendicular to AB. TA = (Wl2)/(l1 + l2) and TB = (Wl1)/(l1 + l2)
11. 11
From the geometry
l1Ɵ = l Φ1 and l2Ɵ = l Φ2
or Φ1 = l1Ɵ / l , Φ2 = l2Ɵ / l ………………(2)
The resisting torque T for the system can be written as
T = TA l1 Φ1 +TB l2 Φ2
=[(Wl2)/(l1 + l2) ]*[(( l1Ɵ) / l)]*l1 + [(Wl1)/(l1 + l2)]*[(( l2Ɵ) / l)]*l2
Substituting TA and TB from (1) and Φ1and Φ2 from (2)
= [(W l2 l1 Ɵ) /(l1 + l2)l]*[( l1 + l2)]
= (W l2 l1 Ɵ)/ l ………..(3)
We know that
T = I α
Where , T = torque
I = Moment of inertia = W k2
/ g
α = angular acceleration
k = radius of gyration
So, α = T/I
= ( (W l2 l1 Ɵ)/ l)/ (W k2
/ g)
= (g l2 l1 Ɵ) / l k2
……….(4)
We also know that
ω2
= Angular acceleration / Angular Displacement
Where, ω = Angular velocity of AB
ω2
= (g l2 l1 Ɵ) / l k2
θ
ω2
= (g l2 l1 ) / l k2
12. 12
Here, l2 = l1= a
ω2
= (g a2
) / l k2
ω = (a/k)√(𝑔/𝑙)
We have ω = 2π/T
Hence T = 2π *(k/a)√(𝒍/𝒈) ………(5)
PROCEDURE:
1] Suspendthe bar formhook.The suspensionlengthof each cord mustbe the same.
2] Allowthe barto oscillate aboutthe vertical axispassingthroughthe center&measure the periodic
time‘t’byknowingtime sayfor10 oscillations.

STATIC AND DYNAMIC BALANCING
AIM : To calculate the orientationandlongitudinal positionof balancingmassesof amulti-rotorsystem
so that itis balancedstaticallyanddynamicallyandcheckitexperimentally.
GIVEN:
Two massesm1 and m2 are spaced10cm apart ona shaftand massm2 isorientedat90° withrespectto
mass m.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
To locate orientationandpositionof balancingmassm3 andm4 so that rotatingmassessystemis
balanced.
DESCRIPTION OF SET UP:
A Steel shaftismountedinball bearingatitsends,are housedina rectangularmainframe . Adisc
carryinga circularportionand protractionscaleandpointerisprovidedatendof the frame for angular
adjustmentof the massesonthe shaft.The masses can be attached anddetachedandslide overthe
shaft.The positionof the massescan be adjustedwiththe helpof ascale at the bottomof the frame
and a sittingguage whichcan move overthe scale to helplocate the masses.
PROCEDURE:
1.STATIC BALANCING:

Remove the drive belt.Unlockthe frame fromchaintoclamp itto the main frame at itstop , bymeans
of nut andboltarrangement.The value of (m-r) foreachblockisdeterminedbyclampingeachblockin
turn of shaft.
Here,m = massof block
r = eccentricity of c.g of block from the axis rotation.
Moment due towt. Of steel bolts = Moment due to wt. of block
FOR STATIC BALANCING, Σmω2
r = 0
2.DYNAMIC BALANCING:
Keep system idle with no vibration, Using value of (mr ) for each block draw force and couple polygon
from given data.

CONCLUSION:-
The orientationandpositionof balancing masses been calculated as shown above. Based upon results
the experimenthasbeencalculatedanditisfoundthatframe doesnot vibrate while shaft rotates have
that these is no reduction set up at the bearing and hence unbalanced masses are balanced statically
and dynamically.
