1. DYNAMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS OF A CENTRIFUGAL


BLOWER USING FEA
ABSTRACT
Centrifugal blowers are used extensively for on-board naval applications have high noise
levels. The noise produced by a rotating component is mainly due to random loading force on the
blades and periodic iteration of incoming are with the blades of the rotor. The contemporary
blades in naval applications are made up of aluminum or steel and generate noise that causes
disturbance to the people working near the blower.
The present work aims at examining the choice of composites as an alternative to metal
for better vibration control. Composites, known for their superior damping characteristics are
more promising in vibration reduction compared to metals. The modeling of the blower was
done by using solid modeling software, CATIA V5 R19. The blower is meshed with a three
dimensional hex8 mesh is done using HYPERMESH 10.
It is proposed to design a blower with composite material, analyze its strength and
deformation using FEM software. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of composites and metal
blower using FEA packaged (ANSYS). Modal analysis is performed on both Aluminum and
composite blower to find out first 5 natural frequencies.

to propel the vehicle at its operational speed and RPM. The blade geometry and design are more
complex involving many controlling parameters. Propeller with conventional isotropic materials
creates more vibration and noise in its rotation. It is undesirable in stealth point of view. In
current years the increased need for light weight structural element with acoustic insulation has
led to use of fiber reinforced multi layered composite propeller. The present work is to carry out
the dynamic analysis of aluminum, composite propeller of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced
Plastics) materials.

The present thesis deals with modeling and analyzing the propeller blade of a underwater
vehicle for their strength. A propeller is a complex geometry which requires high end modeling
software. The solid model of propeller is developed in CATIA V5 R19. Tetrahedral mesh is
generated for the model using HYPER MESH. Static, Eigen and frequency responses analysis of
both aluminum and composite propeller are carried out in ANSYS. Interlaminar shear stresses
are calculated for composite propeller by varying the number of layers. The stresses obtained are
well within the limit of elastic property of the materials.

7.DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF HIGH SPEED HELICAL GEAR .


ABSTRACT
Marine engines are among heavy-duty machineries, which need to be taken care of in the best
way during prototype development stages. These engines are operated at very high speeds which
induce large stresses and deflections in the gears as well as in other rotating components. For the
safe functioning of the engine, these stresses and deflections have to be minimized.
In this project, static-structural analysis on a high speed helical gear used in marine engines,
have been performed. The dimensions of the model have been arrived at by
theoretical methods. The stresses generated and the deflections of the tooth have been
analyzed for different materials. Finall y the results obtained by theoretical anal ysis
and Finite Element Anal ysis are compared to check the correctness. A conclusion
has been arrived on the material which is best suited for the marine engines based on the results.

13.STATIC AND MODAL ANALYSIS OF LEAF SPRING USING FEA
Abstract
The objective of this present work is to estimate the deflection, stress and mode
frequency induced in the leaf spring of an army jeep design by the ordinance factory. The
emphasis in this project is on the application of computer aided analysis using finite element
concept. The component chosen for analysis is a leaf spring which is an automotive component
used to absorb vibrations induced during the motion of vehicle. It also acts as a structure to
support vertical loading due to the weight of the vehicle and payload. Under operating
conditions, the behavior of the leaf spring is complicated due to its clamping effects and interleaf
contact, hence its analysis is essential to predict the displacement, mode frequency and stresses.
The leaf spring, which we are analyzing, is a specially designed leaf spring used in military
jeeps. This spring is intended to bare heavy jerks and vibrations reduced during military
operations. A model of such jeep has been shown in this project report. In analysis part the finite
element of leaf spring is created using solid tetrahedron elements, appropriate boundary
conditions are applied, material properties are given and loads are applied as per its design, the
resultant deformation, mode frequencies and stresses obtained are reported and discussed.

means to separate the fine cement particles from coarse cement particles. The fine particles are
collected separately while the coarse particles are again sent back to crushing units and the cycle
goes on. The cement comprises of two main erodent in form of alumina and silica which causes
wear loss of fan blade in raw mill separator unit. Since this wear loss is non uniform in nature, it
causes the development of eccentricity in the rotating fan assemblies of separator. This rotating
un balance causes the whole structure to vibrate. The foundation and other installed units this
raw mill separator unit get thus vibrating. Therefore it becomes important to analyze the
vibration characteristics of separator unit for different cases of unbalance and to find out suitable
means to minimize the vibration. In this report, the computer aided solid model generation of the
separator fan assemblies has been done based on the drawings. The modal analysis of the fan
assembly attached with housing and supporting frame has been done using finite element
analysis software. To see the effect of unbalance on supporting structure one simplified approach
has been used and vibration response for unbalanced rotation has been analyzed. The root cause
of unbalance in separator fan assembly is non uniform wear loss of fan blade material. To control
this erosive wear loss from fan blade, one experiment has been performed to compare the wear
loss from mild steel substrate plate coated with suitable hard material. Good wear resistance
result has been found for coated material which can be used for fan blade to control the quick
wear loss.

16.STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF AIRCRAFT STIFFENED


PANEL.
Abstract
The title entitled to our major project is STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF
AIRCRAFT STIFFENED PANEL. Stiffened panel is a component in aircraft that is used to
fasten the stiffener and the skin. These are the components that carry and allocate the loads
throughout the surface of the fuselage or the wing. These panels are present in both fuselage and
wings. Stiffener or longeron or stringer is a thin metal strip that is used as a supporting member
in fuselage and wing. When we consider the issue i.e. resistance of the aircrafts skin towards the
loads applied on it, due to frailty the aircraft skin is easily deformed. In order to solve this
problem we designed a stiffened panel which can endure to deflection and stress levels.
By changing the stiffened panel sections and by changing the material of the skin, the
aircraft skin can withstand the deformation. Generally T-section stiffened panel is used but there
is a disadvantage of using T-section, it cant resist to deformation. So we designed an I-section
stiffened panel (because I-section is more resistant to deformation) in CATIA and Meshing in

Modal analysis, Static analysis, Harmonic analysis respectively and also we considered two
materials, one is aluminum and the other is carbon fiber. Aluminum is the common element used
in the design of aircraft, but Carbon fiber is recently being used in aircrafts.

BORING MACHINE
ABSTRACT
The structure of machine tool forms the vital link between the cutting tool and the work
piece. The machine tool accuracy mostly depends upon the structural design of the various
components of the machine tool. To maintain the accuracy under the influence of cutting forces
and the moving weight of machine tool elements, the structure, particularly spindle must poses
high dynamic stiffness. The spindle should be rigid enough to with stand the various forces
acting on it. Therefore, the extent to which the behavior of the various elements of a machine
tool contributed to its overall performance is by no means fully understood.
The objective of the present project work is to design the machine tool spindle (CNC
Horizontal Boring machine) for dynamic stiffness by considering the above influencing
parameters.
For this purpose Finite Element Method is being implemented to analyze the spindle
behavior in CNC Horizontal Boring machine. FEM package like ANSYS 12 is used in this
project.

A three dimensional sandwich panel, which is characterized by two thin flat sheets and a core
sandwiched between them is relatively a complex structure. After study of the previous data, the
assumptions required for analysis of orthotropic sandwich panels with corrugated core are
finalized. The analysis of orthotropic sandwich panels are complex and the number of variables
involved is high. A description is given for predicting buckling stresses of rectangular sandwich
panels with corrugated core. Mathematical formulations are made for finding elastic contants of
orthotropic sandwich panels and for their buckling co- efficients/loads. Finite element method is
used for finding the buckling stresses of rectangular sandwich panels with different types of
corrugated core.

orthotropic sandwich panels with the newly developed Top hat core and compare with the
buckling stresses obtained with the earlier available types of corrugated core(Continuous

In an effort to save weight while still remaining high strength, many contemporary structural

One obvious means of obtaining a high strength, minimum weight design is the use of light, thin-

The present work particularly deals with dynamic analysis of lengthy uniform thinwalled uniform I-beams and tapered I-beams of open sections, particularly composite beams.
Fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) have been increasingly used over the past few decades in a
variety of structures that require high ratio of stiffness and strength to weight. A
displacement-based one-dimensional finite element model is developed to predict natural
frequencies and corresponding vibration modes for a thin-walled composite beam. Numerical
results are obtained for thin-walled composite beams addressing the effects of fiber angle,
modulus ratio, height-to-thickness ratio, and boundary conditions on the vibration frequencies
and mode shapes of the composites. Using ANSYS 12, the modal and harmonic analysis are
carried out and presented in graphical form.

ABSTRACT
Composite thin cylindrical shells are most widely used structural forms in Aerospace and
Missile applications. In designing efficient and optimized shell structure, they become
increasingly sensitive to buckling. It is well known that the experimental display is mainly
attributed to geometrical imperfection like damage in the structure, or local thinning of material
etc.
In Missile and Airframe, the composite cylindrical shell structure is generally provided
with cutouts for accessing internal components during integration. The cutouts invariably reduce
the strength of the composite cylindrical shell and more specifically the buckling load. It has

cutout not only introduces stress concentration but also significantly reduce buckling load.
Results from a numerical study of the response of thin-walled compressionloaded laminated composite cylindrical shells with unreinforced and reinforced square
