Parametric study on an industrial structure for various dynamic loadseSAT Journals
Abstract
Industrial machinery produce vibrations during its operation. Vibrations are transmitted to structure. However, an industrial structure is designed for these dynamic effects. But there are some dynamic effects which still to be considered. Those are, wind, earth quake and accidental blast loads. Though these loads are not frequent, but its occasional appearance will destroy the structure. An industry with thousands of labours, if gets these occasional dynamic effect, then it might result in much fatal. Therefore an industrial structure must be designed in such a way, that it resists the force created by these dynamic effects and dissipates in a better manner. This study is a numerical analysis of an industrial structure, subjected to wind, earthquake and blast load. The results are compared for severity, and the remedial measures shall be discussed. By adopting the remedial measures, the analysis shall be performed again and the effects will be compared with the earlier results of a normal structure. Drafting software Auto CAD is used for modelling the structure and SAP 2000 analysis software will be used for dynamic analysis. The purpose of this research project work is to study and understand the behavior of structure for dynamic loadings.
Keywords: Industrial structure, dynamic analysis, and blast load

SEISMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS OF LINKED TWIN TALL BUILDINGS WITH STRUCTURAL COUPLINGIAEME Publication
Effect of structural links on seismic responses for a linked building system
has been investigated in this paper by using finite element modeling technique.
The linked building system in this study is represented by twin 40-story
reinforced concrete frame-wall structures horizontally coupled by structural
links. It is assumed that the two adjacent buildings were similar in this linked
building system, so the two adjacent stories could be linked at the same height
by an inter-building link. The linked building system is modeled as a rigid
floor diaphragm for towers and as a beam for each link fixedly linked to the
perimeter structural framework of the buildings. By employing earthquake
time history excitation, the seismic responses of the twin towers were
computed at different locations for the link. The responses of structures were
evaluated and compared. The analysis outcomes indicated that the link could
effectively change the structural responses of the linked building system
Earthquake Analysis of Multi Storied Residential Building - A Case StudyIJERA Editor
Earthquake occurred in multistoried building shows that if the structures are not well designed and constructed
with and adequate strength it leads to the complete collapse of the structures. To ensure safety against seismic
forces of multi-storied building hence, there is need to study of seismic analysis to design earthquake resistance
structures. In seismic analysis the response reduction was considered for two cases both Ordinary moment
resisting frame and Special moment resisting frame. The main objective this paper is to study the seismic
analysis of structure for static and dynamic analysis in ordinary moment resisting frame and special moment
resisting frame. Equivalent static analysis and response spectrum analysis are the methods used in structural
seismic analysis. We considered the residential building of G+ 15 storied structure for the seismic analysis and it
is located in zone II. The total structure was analyzed by computer with using STAAD.PRO software. We
observed the response reduction of cases ordinary moment resisting frame and special moment resisting frame
values with deflection diagrams in static and dynamic analysis. The special moment of resisting frame structured
is good in resisting the seismic loads.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
