Wind shear force has been calculated in the prevailing direction of the wind for tower structures through integral equations, are then used as input for 3-dimensional finite element model to compute the tower deflection and bending stress. To improve the estimation of tower deflection, a mathematical model is developed based on cantilever beam theory. Results are then compared with those obtained from numerical analysis method. The wind turbine tower deflection is found maximum at the tip of the structure and increasing with the hub height. Results indicate that the square cross-section tower is superior with respect to tower deflection with a maximum deflection of 0.064 mm. Numerical analysis method is used to verify the results of mathematical tower deflection model showing very less percentage of error. Thus, the new mathematical model has the advantage of estimating the tower deflection by just knowing the average wind speed of a wind farm for any wind turbine tower structure.}, keywords = {Wind Turbine Tower,finite element analysis,Analytical Method,Tower Loading,Deflection,Bending}, url = {https://rspsciencehub.com/article_11887.html}, eprint = {https://rspsciencehub.com/article_11887_1a8920bb983f7c13311c17c92b1301f2.pdf} } @article { author = {RAJESH, MADRI and G, Naga Malleswara Rao and B., Chandra Mohana Reddy}, title = {Al7129 Metal matrix enhanced with Titanium carbide (TiC) and Boron carbide(B4C) optimized machining parameters utilizing Taguchi method for Surface roughness}, journal = {International Research Journal on Advanced Science Hub}, volume = {3}, number = {5}, pages = {101-107}, year = {2021}, publisher = {RSP Science Hub}, issn = {2582-4376}, eissn = {2582-4376}, doi = {10.47392/irjash.2021.126}, abstract = {The influence of spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut of alumina particle on lowering surface roughness during turning of Al7129/TiC/B4C hybrid composite is investigated in this study.

As a result, with the intensification of global terrorist attacks, building owners, government departments, and design professionals have become more aware of the vulnerability and survivability of structures to explosive loads. Although much work on the impact of explosions on infrastructure continues, especially in India, numerical work to test explosives has been restricted. In addition, there are few computational tests for reinforced concrete beam-column joint to withstand explosive loads within a close range with a ruler spacing of less than as mentioned in IS: 1449. This may be due to the unreliable accuracy and relatively low survivability of most tools in this area.}, keywords = {explosive loads,elevated temperature,explosive yield,Specific heat,Thermal Conductivity}, url = {https://rspsciencehub.com/article_11983.html}, eprint = {https://rspsciencehub.com/article_11983_e7f1554cfff80858613264c5ddc44040.pdf} } @article { author = {Agnihotri, Anamika and Jethoo, Ajay Singh and P.V., Ramana}, title = {Reprocessed Materials Evaluation on Perfunctory and Flame Endurance of Structures}, journal = {International Research Journal on Advanced Science Hub}, volume = {3}, number = {5}, pages = {116-123}, year = {2021}, publisher = {RSP Science Hub}, issn = {2582-4376}, eissn = {2582-4376}, doi = {10.47392/irjash.2021.128}, abstract = {The fire resistance of concrete with low fire resistance and meagre fire resistance can be improved by replacing the cement in the concrete mixture with different GGBS ratios. By partially substituting cement with GGBS (ground blast furnace slag), which can be used as an additive to assure excellent heat resistance in concrete, the GGBS can help lower the price of concrete mixtures, prevent concrete from cracking, reduce high temperatures and increase compressive strength. For OPC concrete mixtures, the exact optimal cement substitution rate of GGBS (15-60%, in steps of 15%) must be reached for mechanical (compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength) analysis, durability (constant pressure and water absorption), GGBS concrete mixture mass loss due to acid attack and microstructure characteristics (FESEM and FTIR), assuming a water-cement ratio of 0.4. (Mixture 1 with 100% and Mixture 2 with the best GGBS percentage) After exposure to the flame, the resistance is calculated.
