Parametric study of light gauge steel lipped channel column sectioneSAT Journals
Abstract Light gauge steel lipped channel sections are being used popularly in shops, factories, automobile engineering and industries on account of their high strength to width ratio, simplicity in construction, flexibility in fabrication and high structural efficiency. A lot of research work has been carried out to study the structural behavior of axially loaded light gauge steel lipped column sections considering different parameters. However, structural behavior of light gauge steel lipped channel sections under eccentric loading has not received much attention. The present paper focuses on the experimental study of structural behavior of light gauge steel lipped channel sections under eccentric loading by varying loading position in between center of gravity and shear center of channel column section. Finite element analysis of the section is also done using Abaqus software for different positions of the load. The results indicate that, load carrying capacity of the section increases as the loading position shifts towards supported edge of the section. The failure of the section occurs in the form of local-distortional buckling approximately between 1/3rd - ½ of the height of column. Results obtained by software are found to be in good agreement with experimental results.

Study of Structural Behaviour of Gravity Dam with Various Features of Gallery...IDES Editor
The size and shape of opening in dam causes the
stress concentration, it also causes the stress variation in the
rest of the dam cross section. The gravity method of the analysis
does not consider the size of opening and the elastic property
of dam material. Thus the objective of study is comprises of
the Finite Element Method which considers the size of
opening, elastic property of material, and stress distribution
because of geometric discontinuity in cross section of dam.
Stress concentration inside the dam increases with the opening
in dam which results in the failure of dam. Hence it is
necessary to analyses large opening inside the dam. By making
the percentage area of opening constant and varying size and
shape of opening the analysis is carried out. For this purpose
a section of Koyna Dam is considered. Dam is defined as a
plane strain element in FEM, based on geometry and loading
condition. Thus this available information specified our path
of approach to carry out 2D plane strain analysis. The results
obtained are then compared mutually to get most efficient
way of providing large opening in the gravity dam.

Abstract (Bader):
The main objective for this experiment was to determine the stress, deflection, and strain of a supported beam
under loading, and to experimentally verify the beam stress and flexure formulas. Additionally, maximum
bending stress and maximum deflection were determined. To accomplish this, a 1018 steel I-beam with a strain
gage bonded to the underside was utilized in conjunction with a dial indicator to monitor beam deflection. In
order to determine the values for strain and deflection, the beam underwent testing utilizing the MTS Tensile
Testing machine, which applied a controlled, incrementally increasing load to the beam. This data was then
utilized along with calculations for the beams neutral axis, moment of inertia, and section modulus to determine
the required objective values. Final values of 12,150 psi for the maximum actual stress (vs. 12,784.8 psi for
theoretical stress), and 0.0138 in for the maximum actual deflection (vs. .0130 in for theoretical deflection)
correlated closely with each other, and successfully verify established beam stress and flexure formulas.

Theory (Edwin):
There are two main objectives for this experiment: to determine maximum bending stress values in
the beam and to determine the deflection in the beam. To help visualize this phenomena, imagine
cutting a section of a symmetrically loaded beam:
Now, examine diagrams of this section before (Fig. A) and after bending (Fig. B):
(Fig. A)
(Fig. B)
The main points to take away from the above diagrams are as follows: When the moment, M is applied
as shown in Fig. A, forces will be in compression near the top (positive moment) and in tension near
the bottom (negative moment). The effects from this moment are seen in Fig. B.
For determining max stress values, one concept to note is that our bending moment M can help
calculate bending stress. First, we rec

Static Stress Analysis of Connecting Rod Using Finite Element ApproachIOSR Journals
Every vehicle which equipped with internal combustion engine requires connecting rod. In this paper a static stress analysis of connecting rod made up of SS 304 used in Cummins NTA 885 BC engine is conducted, using finite element method. After measuring the dimension of connecting rod, model is developed in CATIA V5 software and imported to ANSYS WORKBENCH 14.0 software. Static analysis is done by fixing the smaller end and load is applied at bigger end of connecting rod. Stress developed at four different sections is used for analysis. Maximum stress point and section prone to failure is finding out by this analysis. Graph between stress and load is plotted at section prone to failure and result of stress analysis is shown with the help of image.
Parametric Optimization of Rectangular Beam Type Load Cell Using Taguchi MethodIJCERT
In this work, Rectangular beam type load cell is considered for stress and strain analysis by using finite element method. The stress analysis is carried out to minimize the weight of Rectangular beam- type load cell without exceeding allowable stress. The intention of the work is to create the geometry of Rectangular beam-type load cell to find out the optimum solution. FEM software HyperWorks11.0.0.39 is using for parametric optimization of Rectangular beam type load cell. If the stress value is within the permissible range, then certain dimensions will be modified to reduce the amount of material needed. The procedure will be repeated until design changes satisfying all the criteria. Experimental verification will be carried out by photo-elasticity technique with the help of suitable instrumentation like Polariscope. Using Photo-elasticity technique, results are crosschecked which gives results very close to FEM technique. Experimental results will be compared with FEM results. With the aid of these tools the designer can develop and modify the design parameters from initial design stage to finalize basic geometry of load cell.
Improvement the voltage stability margin of Iraqi power system using the opti...IJECEIAES
The detection of potential voltage collapse in power systems is essential to maintain the voltage stability in heavy load demand. This paper proposes a method to detect weak buses in power systems using two stability indices: the voltage stability margin factor (dS/dY) and the voltage collapse prediction index (VCPI). Hence, the paper aims to improve the voltage stability of Iraqi transmission grid by allocating FACTS devices in the optimal locations and optimal sizes. Two types of FACTS are used in this paper which are Thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC) and static var compensator (SVC). The objective function of the problem is fitted using particle swarm optimization (PSO). The proposed method is verified using simulation test on Diyala-132 kV network which is a part of the Iraqi power system. The results observed that improvement the voltage stability margin, the voltage profile of Diyala-132 kV is increased and the power losses is decreased.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
