Equilibrium requires that the sum of all forces and sum of all moments acting on an object are equal to zero. Static equilibrium is maintained when the external forces give a zero resultant force and zero total moment. Additional concepts important to equilibrium include the center of mass, hydrostatics, friction, and moments of force.

Concept of Particles and Free Body Diagram
Why FBD diagrams are used during the analysis?
It enables us to check the body for equilibrium.
By considering the FBD, we can clearly define the exact system of forces which we must use in the investigation of any constrained body.
It helps to identify the forces and ensures the correct use of equation of equilibrium.
Note:
Reactions on two contacting bodies are equal and opposite on account of Newton's III Law.
The type of reactions produced depends on the nature of contact between the bodies as well as that of the surfaces.
Sometimes it is necessary to consider internal free bodies such that the contacting surfaces lie within the given body. Such a free body needs to be analyzed when the body is deformable.
Physical Meaning of Equilibrium and its essence in Structural Application
The state of rest (in appropriate inertial frame) of a system particles and/or rigid bodies is called equilibrium.
A particle is said to be in equilibrium if it is in rest. A rigid body is said to be in equilibrium if the constituent particles contained on it are in equilibrium.
The rigid body in equilibrium means the body is stable.
Equilibrium means net force and net moment acting on the body is zero.
Essence in Structural Engineering
To find the unknown parameters such as reaction forces and moments induced by the body.
In Structural Engineering, the major problem is to identify the external reactions, internal forces and stresses on the body which are produced during the loading. For the identification of such parameters, we should assume a body in equilibrium. This assumption provides the necessary equations to determine the unknown parameters.
For the equilibrium body, the number of unknown parameters must be equal to number of available parameters provided by static equilibrium condition.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

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.

– Hydrostatics and flotation
3. Bodies at Rest
• A body at rest or in uniform motion is in
equilibrium
– External forces must give zero resultant.
4. Behold, a new definition for Force!
• A vector quantity that tends to cause movement in
material objects
5. Types of Equilibrium
• Stable
– A slight disturbance generates a restoring
force to return the equilibrium
• Unstable
– A slight disturbance leads to an increasing
departure from equilibrium
• Neutral
– A disturbance simply moves the object to a
new position
7. Friction
• Many common objects are in equilibrium because of the
effects of friction forces
• Example?
8. Friction and Equilibrium
• Objects at rest on a surface are held by
static friction.
• Surfaces moving with respect to each other
are met with sliding friction or kinetic
friction.
• Which is greater?
9. Friction and Equilibrium cont’d
• Examples of friction:
– Slowing of a golf ball across a green
– Stationary object on an inclined plane
– Walking and not falling over
11. Coefficient of Friction
• Depends on the surfaces of both of the bodies in contact
with one another
• Simple experiment: at what angle does an object start to
slide down a slope
– Mechanical principle:
14. Moments of Force
• Moment of force about a point is the tendency of
the force to turn the body to which it is applied
about that point
– Also known as torque
– F d
– d = length of moment arm
• Perpendicular distance between point and line of
action of the force
– Given in Nm
15.
16. Example (page 81)
• A man supports a weight of 250 N with his
arms at right angles to his body. He holds
the weight with both hands level with his
shoulders. If is arms are 75 cm long, what is
the moment of the force?
18. BE CAREFUL!

22. Where does the resultant force act?
• What one force at what one location would produce
equilibrium by balancing all the distributed forces?
23. Sum of moments

about that point. For example, sum moments about point
A, taking the opposite sense of P+Q to assume
equilibrium
(P+Q) x AC = Q x AB
25. Center of Gravity (CoG)
• A point within or near the object through
which the resultant weight of the object
passes
26. Center of Mass (CoM)

• Height range: 158-188 cm
• CoM range 54.4-55.89 %ht
30. Force Couples
• What’s the sum of the horizontal forces?
• Do they therefore have no mechanical effect?
31. Couples
• A pair of equal parallel forces acting in
opposite senses, and not in the same line, is
called a couple
• Object will tend to rotate and is therefore not
in equilibrium
33. CoM of a Stationary Body
• Objects will balance on pivots if CoG is
directly over the pivot.

49. Upthrust on Immersed Body
• Pressure increases with depth.
• The underside of the object experiences
greater force than the top side.
50.
51. Upthrust on Immersed Body cont’d
• Principle of Archimedes:
– When a solid body is wholly or partially
immersed in fluid, it experiences an upthrust
equal to the weight of the mass of displaced
fluid.
52. Upthrust on Immersed Body cont’d
