Design and Analysis of Various Shapes of Flywheel

Abstract: In present investigation, to counter the requirement of smoothing out the large oscillations in velocity during a cycle of a mechanism, a flywheel is designed, optimized and analyzed. By using optimization approach to optimize various parameters like cost, stresses, energy etc. for flywheel and to apply an approach for modification of various working parameter like efficiency, output, energy storing capacity, the results compared with existing flywheel result. Based on the dynamic functions and specifications, of the system the main features of the flywheel is initially determined, the detail design study of flywheel is done and by using any one of the optimization techniques and approach for modification, structural analysis is done. Heavy wheel attached to a rotating shaft to smooth out delivery of power from a motor to a machine. The inertia of the flywheel opposes and moderates fluctuations in the speed of the engine and stores the excess energy for intermittent use. In automobile engines, the flywheel smooths out the pulses of energy provided by the combustion in the cylinders and provides energy for the compression stroke of the pistons. In power presses the actual punching, shearing, and forming are done in a fraction of the operating cycle. During the longer, non-active period, the speed of the flywheel is built up slowly by a comparatively low-powered motor. When the press is operating, most of the required energy is provided by the flywheel, heavy metal wheel attached to a drive shaft, having most of its weight concentrated at the circumference. Such a wheel resists changes in speed and helps steady the rotation of the shaft where a power source such as a piston engine exerts an uneven torque on the shaft or where the load is intermittent, as in piston pumps or punches. By slowly increasing the speed of a flywheel a small motor can store up energy that, if released in a short time, enables the motor to perform a function for which it is ordinarily too small.
A comparative study of the fecal microbiota of gray seal pups and yearlings ‐ a marine mammal sentinel species

Gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) can act as sentinel species reflecting the condition of the environment they inhabit. Our previous research identified strains of pathogenic Campylobacter and Salmonella, originating from both human and agricultural animal hosts, on rectal swabs from live gray seal (H. grypus) pups and yearlings on the Isle of May, Scotland, UK. We examined rectal swabs from the same pup (n = 90) and yearling (n = 19) gray seals to gain further understanding into the effects of age‐related changes (pup vs. yearling) and three different natal terrestrial habitats on seal pup fecal microbiota. DNA was extracted from a subset of rectal swabs (pups n = 23, yearlings n = 9) using an optimized procedure, and the V4 region of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene was sequenced to identify each individual's microbiota. Diversity in pup samples was lower (3.92 ± 0.19) than yearlings (4.66 ± 0.39) although not significant at the p = 0.05 level (p = 0.062) but differences in the composition of the microbiota were (p < 0.001). Similarly, differences between the composition of the microbiota from pups from three different terrestrial habitats (Pilgrim's Haven [PH], Rona Rocks [RR], and Tarbet Slope [TS]) were highly significant (p < 0.001). Pairwise tests showed significant differences between all three habitats: PH versus TS (p = 0.019), PH versus RR (p = 0.042) and TS versus RR (p = 0.020). This preliminary study suggests a general trend, that seal microbiomes are modified by both age and, in pups, different terrestrial habitats. Furthermore, knowledge of the microbiota species present has the potential to be used in determining the environmental quality index.

Consequences of the catastrophic wildfire in 2020 for the soil cover of the Utrish State Nature Reserve

Present work aimed to assess the impact of pyrogenic effect on the flora, and quality and health of soils of the Utrish Reserve. Studies performed on the territory of reserve within a month after the fire revealed that the areas showed varying degrees of damaged characteristics due to catastrophic fire. The entire damage was recorded in a 40-hectare region, while the vegetation on another 26 hectares of the reserve was damaged to a lesser extent. In total, 4,800 trees were eliminated, 73% of them belonged to rare and endangered species, such as Junipers (Juniperus spp.), Mt. Atlas mastic trees (Pistacia mutica), and Pitsunda pines (Pinus brutia var. pityusa). In the areas of severe disturbance, the soil surface was covered with a constant layer of ash two weeks after the fire. As a result, there was an increase in the pH values, and the chemical composition of brown soil (Cambisol) was determined after the fire. There was also an increase in the organic carbon content and peroxidase activity. Catalase activity, which is sensitive to pyrogenic effects, decreased in all soil samples obtained at post-pyrogenic areas. The effect of fire on the biological state of soils may diminish over time, however, the restoration of the damaged ecosystems may take hundreds of years. The results of this study can be used in assessing the damage to ecosystems after the wildfires, as well as in developing methods to accelerate the restoration of soils after a fire impact.
Public Health Issue of Indoor Dilution Ventilation for Disease Prevention Versus PM2.5 in Intake Air in Auditoriums of Premier Engineering Institutes in India

Background: Dilution ventilation by enhancing fresh air intake has been prescribed to reduce airborne infection spread during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is all the more important in assembly spaces like auditoriums. Premier technology institutes have large campuses with large auditoriums for academic and cultural events in India. These institutes serve as role models for society, where gatherings are essential, but there is also the possibility of transmission of all airborne respiratory infections, including tuberculosis, into the community. The fresh air taken in should also be filtered for pollution to prevent other lung issues. Aims: Fresh air intake and filtration have been studied in order to understand whether the outside air supplied indoors is filtered for PM2.5, which is a major ambient polluter in India. Settings and design/methods: In this study, the Right to Information Act of 2005 has been used to obtain first-hand information from the institutes with respect to the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in their auditoriums. Twelve of the 19 institutes fall in cities with non-attainment of ambient air quality standards. Results: Eleven out of all those had recently integrated fresh air supply, and six replied in the negative. Only one out of all of them had appropriate filters. Conclusion: This study highlights the need for a possible trade-off between the use of air conditioners for thermal comfort + assumed protection against PM2.5, which is the switching off of air conditioners and manually opening up windows and using fans for ventilation. Indian HVAC design for gathering spaces, especially educational institutes, needs to factor in fresh air for dilution ventilation as well as PM2.5 filtration.
Effects of fishmeal substitution with Hermetia illucens L on the growth, metabolism and disease resistance of Micropterus salmoides

Identifying suitable substitutes for fishmeal has been one of the important issues for the aquaculture industry for decades. Recently, the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens L (HI) has become one of the most promising alternative protein substitutes for fishmeal in aqua-diets. This study investigated the effects of fishmeal substitution with fresh HI larvae on growth, serum and liver parameters, intestinal enzyme activity, histomorphology and innate resistance to Aeromonas schubertii in Largemouth bass. Three hundred and seventy-five Largemouth bass were randomly allocated into five groups and fed different diet proportions of HI instead of fishmeal as 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% HI for 49 days. Results showed that the growth performance of fish, including feed conversion ratio and feed intake were not affected by dietary treatments of 5 and 10% HI. However, the levels of them are significantly increased in 20% HI. Serum alanine aminotransferase content in Largemouth bass fed 20% HI were significantly increased. The liver total protein levels of fish fed 15 and 20% HI were significantly increased, while glutathione peroxidase activity was significantly decreased. In fish fed 5% HI, GSH-PX activity was significantly increased. Intestinal amylase activity of fish fed 15 and 20% HI was decreased. The hepatic and intestinal histomorphology of all fish was unaffected, the intestinal epithelial cells were intact and the intestinal villi were clearly visible. After 49 days, it was found that fish fed 5% HI significantly reduced the amount of A. schubertii colonisation in the spleen at 48 h and 72 h after A. schubertii challenge. It was concluded that the replacement of dietary fishmeal with 5% HI did not alter growth performance, and hepatic and intestinal histomorphology and it improved the antioxidant level and disease resistance of Largemouth bass.
From Undergraduates to Ambassadors: The Impact of Engineering Ambassador Network Training

The Engineering Ambassadors Network Training is a two-and-a-half day intensive professional development event for students who have been accepted into an Engineering Ambassador program. The workshop format was originally conceived as a vehicle for training new ambassadors to deliver messages about the immense potential of engineering. Training focuses on creating outreach presentations that achieve maximum impact through advanced communication techniques. Post-workshop surveys reveal high levels of perceived confidence and readiness. However, deeper insights into the impact of the training have arisen from postworkshop interviews, in which participants report that the experience is transformative and that the Engineering Ambassador mission has much meaning for them personally and professionally. Articulating the nature and implications of such impacts is the focus of this paper. The study described in this paper uses the Dynamic Systems Model of Role Identity (DSMRI) to analyze interviews with six purposefully diverse participants. The research was guided by three questions: How do components of individuals’ role identities combine to inform the motivation to become an Engineering Ambassador? How does the training crystallize students’ self-perceptions of themselves as professionals and ambassadors for the field of engineering? Which features of the workshop emerge as the most powerful experiences for triggering the formulation of an Engineering Ambassador role identity? Analyses reveal students’ substantial personal investment in their role as an engineering student and an emerging ambassador. The decision to participate is often driven by personal interests and experiences, and is tied to a deep sense of importance for the work. Similarly, choice of presentation topic is also often personal. Presentation skills reveal new courses of future action; ambassadors describe increases in confidence and many report using the skills immediately. Opportunities to meet other ambassadors are singled out as a major benefit, and students use newly acquired programmatic knowledge to shape the role expectations at their institution. Although not necessarily generalizable to each participating ambassador, the findings of this study reveal how Engineering Ambassadors Network training leverages the emerging professional role identities of engineering students. It offers insights into training program features that increase new participants’ commitments to the mission of the organization and the field of engineering as a whole.
Rotated Golden Codewords Based Space-Time Line Code Systems

The space-time line code (STLC) has been recently proposed in the literature. In STLC systems, the channel state information is assumed to be known at the transmitter, but not at the receiver. In the conventional STLC systems, the inputs of the STLC encoder are either M-ary phase shift keying symbols or M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation symbols and can achieve diversity order with very low detection complexity. In order to further improve the error performance of the STLC systems, in this paper, rotated Golden codewords based STLC (RGC-STLC) systems are proposed.We extend the 1×2 and 2 × 2 transmit-receive antenna structure in the conventional STLC into 1 × 4 and 2 × 4 transmit-receive antenna structures in the proposed RGC-STLC system. The inputs of the proposed RGC-STLC encoder are the rotated Golden codewords. Compared to the conventional 1 × 2 and 2 × 2 STLC systems, the 1 × 4 and 2 × 4 RGC-STLC systems achieve a higher diversity order. Based on the feature of the rotated Golden codewords, low complexity detection schemes for the 1 × 4 and 2 × 4 RGC-STLC systems are further proposed. Finally, the union bounds on the average symbol error probability for the 1 × 4 and 2 × 4 RGC-STLC systems are derived and shown to match the simulation results very well at high signal-to-noise ratios.
Estimation of Resolution and Covariance of Ambient Seismic Source Distributions: Full Waveform Inversion and Matched Field Processing

Both natural and anthropogenic seismic sources generate so‐called ambient seismic waves. One in turn can use ambient seismic waves to estimate these source distributions and study source characteristics, for instance the source mechanism. A commonly used estimation method is called matched field processing (MFP), and the MFP results are inherently smeared by the array geometry. Another approach to estimate ambient seismic sources is to apply full waveform inversion (FWI) to the crosscorrelations of ambient seismic wave recordings. Both methods have pros and cons, but the model resolution and uncertainty in these two methods are important for the interpretation. Unfortunately, this topic has attracted little attention in the past. We propose to estimate both the model resolution matrix and model covariance matrix of the inversion using singular value decomposition. We demonstrate our estimates using two examples, one of which is an actual field array geometry. We quantitatively compare the model resolution of the two methods and discuss the model null space. We demonstrate that FWI has superior resolution with enough independent data and should be used when computational resources permit.
Development of a new advanced elastoplastic constitutive model that considers soil behavior at small strains. The EPHYSS model

The Elastoplastic Hysteretic Small Strain (EPHYSS) model is an advanced elastoplastic model as a result from the combination of the Hysteretic Quasi‐Hypoelastic (HQH) model that considers strain‐induced anisotropy and can reproduce the nonlinear reversible, hysteretic and dependent on recent history soil behavior, and the Cap‐Cone Hardening Soil Modified (HSMOD) model that can reproduce soil plastic behavior. EPHYSS model uses state variables that define different short and long‐term memory levels which provide it with robustness for the reproduction of soil hysteretic behavior and confers it a great versatility and adaptability to experimental results. It also corrects some inconsistencies of the Hardening Soil with Small Strain Stiffness (HS‐SS) model of Plaxis whose effects can have a considerable influence on the numerical simulations of boundary problems. The performance of EPHYSS and a comparison with the HS‐SS model is presented in some experimental and numerical tests, and in a boundary value problem of a large excavation in Barcelona.
Research on the Impact of Host Country Environmental Eegulations on China's OFDI under Different Investment Motivations——Empirical Research based on Panel Data of Asian Countries

This paper takes the panel data of China's OFDI in 28 Asian countries from 2008 to 2019 as a sample to empirically verify the impact of host country environmental regulations on OFDI under different investment motivations from a macro perspective. The empirical results show that: (1) China has obvious market seeking motivation, natural resources seeking motivation, and efficiency-seeking motivation for OFDI of Asian countries; (2) The host country's environmental regulations have a significant inhibitory effect on China's natural resource-seeking and efficiency-seeking OFDI in Asian countries, and have a significant promotion effect on innovative asset-seeking OFDI, but have little impact on market-seeking OFDI; (3) In the long run, the impact of host country's environmental regulations on China's OFDI shows a significant U-shaped relationship.
Reliability-Based Assessment of Concrete Decks Designed Using Approximate Method at the Strength I Limit State

The Approximate Method coupled with the AASHTO Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications (BDS) is applied for designing reinforced concrete bridge decks. Although the LRFD BDS has an intrinsic design return period of 75 years and a target reliability index of 3.5 at the Strength I Limit State, many concrete bridge decks exhibit much shorter service life. Besides the limitations of the crack control limit state at service, the inadequate nominal resistance at the Strength Limit State could contribute to the shortened service life. This paper presents a reliability-based assessment of the current concrete deck design provisions by utilizing actual truck load spectra collected from the national weigh-in-motion (WIM) data. Axle groups, including single axles, tandem axles, and tridem axles, were identified from the WIM data. The moment effects are obtained from influence surface analysis, formulating the live load statistics, particularly for the decks that are supported by girders. It was found that the current design load is not able to represent and envelop the actual traffic load. Additionally, the reliability indices are calculated for a series of reinforced concrete decks on account of both bending moment capacity and arching action moment capacity. The arching action was found to greatly enhance the reliability index for the positive moment region, providing satisfactory reliability indices. The negative moment region may or may not meet the target reliability index depending on the design criteria.
Ultrasound-guided pleural biopsy

: A pleural exudate that remains undiagnosed after a combined clinical assessment, thoracentesis, and imaging requires a pleural biopsy for a definitive diagnosis. Thoracoscopy is often the first method of choice to obtain tissue as it offers greater sensitivity and there is a perception of less risk. However, with imaging guidance, closed pleural biopsy is a safe, affordable, and effective alternative to diagnose all forms of pleural disease. Ultrasound (US) has several benefits when compared with computed tomography for image-guided biopsy, as it is widely available, can be performed bedside, and does not expose the patient to radiation. If performed in optimal conditions, a transthoracic US-guided closed pleural biopsy can yield results comparable to those of thoracoscopy and a marked reduction in the complication rate versus blind biopsy. Abrams and Tru-Cut needles are the most widely used for a closed pleural biopsy. Either may be used with real-time image guidance or with a free-hand image-assisted technique to harvest up to 6 separate tissue samples. The needle choice will depend on the morphology of the lesion observed on imaging. The Tru-Cut is generally preferred for mass lesions of the pleura or pleura that is >20 mm in thickness, and the Abrams for pleural thickening of <20 mm or radiologically normal pleura. A transthoracic US may be used to detect, rule out, and prevent complications, such as bleeding, solid organ injury, or pneumothorax. The ability to perform thoracic US is a necessary skill in current respiratory practice, and US-guided closed pleural biopsy has a critical role in diagnosis.
