Calculation of Drag Force - Flow over a Bicycle using Python

Aim: To carry out a MBD simulation of a Geneva Wheel   Introduction: A typical Geneva wheel setup consists of a driver wheel and a driven wheel. The driver wheel is connected to a motor which influences the rotatory motion required for the driver wheel.   Procedure:  1. Design of driver wheel and…

                          Frequency Analysis of a rotating shaft   Aim: To perform a frequency analysis on a rotating shaft and to determine the resonant frequencies  Introduction: Frequency: Frequency is defined as a number of cycles per unit…

Compatability check The code checks whether the input file name given exsists with extension \'.out\' or not, if a non-compatible file is provided as an input. It shows something like \"File not recognized. Please provide a valid CONVERGE output file\" Data visualizer  Script takes column numbers as the input and…

Curve fitting can be defined as the process of constructing a curve or mathematical function that has the best fit to a series of data points, subject to constraints. In this project, the curve for Specific heat as a function of Temperature will be plotted and the plot will be compared with the actual plot. The specific…

Aim: To determine the minimum cushion pressure needed to break a given thickness of iceusing an air cushion vehicle. Muller proposed the following equation to determine the minimum cushion pressure needed to break a given thickness of ice using an air cushion vehicle where \'p\' denotes the cushion pressure,…

In this project, we are going to write a program for engine kinematics of an air standard otto cycle and subsequently plot a graphical representation of a standard P-V Diagram. In addition to that, the thermal efficiency of the engine will also be computed. The state variables (T1,P1) at state 1 will be considered and…

In this project, I have written a program for the working of a 2R robotic arm manipulator with the implementation of 'for loop' to visualize different positions of robotic arms for different angles in the first quadrant. In general, it can be concluded that we are calculating the workspace of the robotic arms. The calculation…

Calcuation of Drag Force - Flow over a bicycle Calculation of Drag Force: In this program we are going to calculate the drag force over a bicycle using PYTHON. The parameters involved are: Frontal area (A) which is the total area of bicycle and the one who's riding it. It is to be noted that the frontal area changes every…

INTRODUCTION A simple steam plant working on a Rankine Cycle consists of a boiler, turbine, condenser and a feed pump. For any process in the vapour cycle, it is possible to assume a ideal process when performs the basic intended operation and involves no extraneous effects. For steam boiler, this ideal process would be…

Aim: To write a code in Matlab/Octave to parse the NASA thermodynamic data file and then calculate thermodynamic properties of various gas species.  Objectives: To write a function that extracts the 14 co-efficients for a given species from the given file. To write functions that calculate the enthalpy,…

GENETIC ALGORITHM: Genetic Algorithm defines how to an algorithm can generate a modified copy of itself in order to achieve an objective. The next generation will also match itself against the criteria to ensure that the objective will eventually be achieved.  A genetic algorithm is a heuristic search method…

In this Project, we will be solving a second order differential equation which depicts the displacement of pendulum with respect to time.  The second order differential equation is as follows: where, g = gravity in m/s2, L = length of the pendulum in m, m = mass of the ball in kg, b=damping coefficient. All these…
