This document summarizes research conducted to improve the strength of bus body structures through design modifications. It begins by describing issues with current bus body designs, including failures at joint locations. The objectives of the study were to analyze an existing bus body design using finite element analysis (FEA) to identify weak points, redesign problematic components like body pillars and clits to increase strength, and verify the modified design through FEA.
FEA of the original design found high stresses concentrated at clit joints, identifying them as failure prone. To address this, the researchers redesigned the clit with increased dimensions. FEA of the modified design showed reduced displacement and stresses compared to the original, confirming improved strength. The study demonstrates how

Design and Analysis of Car Body to Reduce Drag and Increases Fuel Efficiencydeepak thota
Aerodynamic drag is one of the main obstacles to decreases the speed of the vehicle and also increases the fuel consumption of the vehicle. Extensive research is undergoing for development of aerodynamically optimized vehicle designs.
The main objective of the project is to increase the fuel efficiency by designing car with different type of aerodynamic attachments like diffuser, spoiler, front and rear wing etc., to reduce drag coefficient.
The car body is modeled using solidworks and analysis is done using Ansys Workbench and Drag coefficient is determined to show decrease in Drag force and increase in fuel Efficiency.
It is observed that Cd for the modified car is lower, compared to the standard car. Cd for the car with front splitter and rear spoiler of angle 19 is found to 0.183 and car with diffuser and vortex generator have drag of 0.211, whereas standard race car have Cd of 0.318. But increases in spoiler angle cd value increases from certain angle.
The flywheelis located on one end of the crankshaft and serves two purposes. First, through its inertia, it reduces vibration
by smoothing out the power stroke as each cylinder fires. Second, it is the mounting surface used to bolt the engine
up to its load.
The aim of the project is to design a flywheel for a multi cylinder petrol engine flywheel using the empirical formulas. A
2D drawing is drafted using the calculations. A parametric model of the flywheel is designed using 3D modeling software
Pro/Engineer.
The forces acting on the flywheel are also calculated. The strength of the flywheel is validated by applying the forces on
the flywheel in analysis software ANSYS.
Structural analysis, modal analysis and fatigue analysis are done on the flywheel. Structural analysis is used to determine
whether flywheel withstands under working conditions. Fatigue analysis is done for finding the life of the component.
Modal analysis is done to determine the number of mode shapes for flywheel.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

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.
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.
