As per surveys, most parts of these pumps have validation from the experience of designers as a result of which there isn’t any mathematical tool for design optimization of different parts. Although there are now companies e.g. Oilgear Towler, who are in favor of, and themselves inserted, slots (grooves) on the slippers and in pistons as we shall in this report, there is no particular study to realize their benefits and drawbacks. Therefore, it is necessary to study the advantages and disadvantages arising due to the presence of grooves on the surface of different parts of the pump mathematically or through CFD solvers. In this project work, the aim is to analyze the effect of design parameters and working conditions on the pump behavior. This is done using a parametric study performed on a model of the slipper and simulating the physical problem on ANSYS. As major leakage occurs between slipper and swash plate clearance there-fore in this project report static and dynamic analysis of slipper is done. The Navier Stokes Equations are solved in 3-D to acquire results using Rhie and chow method and ANSYS FLUENT solver. The various design points which affect the efficiencies of a pump in a positive manner, if any, shall be discussed in the conclusion part.","PeriodicalId":142002,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mechanical and Construction Engineering (JMCE)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123535453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Technology has undergone significant modifications, resulting in an increase in speed. However, high speed contributes to traffic accidents. When the driver is not attentive, ordinary braking is insufficient to prevent accidents. The braking system must be improved further in order to brake a vehicle when the driver is unable to do so, which may necessitate the use of an automatic braking system. The vehicle may brake without the driver's assistance using this autonomous braking technology. An automated braking system is an important aspect of car safety technology. It's a sophisticated system that's designed to avoid colliding with another vehicle or an obstacle of some sort. These systems use sensors like radar, video, infrared, and ultrasonic to scan for potential obstacles in front of the car and then use brake control to avoid a collision if the object is found.","PeriodicalId":142002,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mechanical and Construction Engineering (JMCE)","volume":"8 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123706418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Water as a commodity is very scarce and follows a downward trend with every passing day. The Middle East and North Africa region accommodates almost 5% of the world’s population but contain less than 1% of the world’s annual renewable freshwater. The cities are growing at a rate of 4% every year, so this is only going to worsen the demand and supply of water. Hence the use of algae (microalgae and marine macroalgae, commonly known as seaweeds) particularly microalgae can help treat the water efficiently and cater to the demand of the growing population. The omnipotent stature of algae and their adaptation to multifarious habitats makes them tolerant to a wide range of environmental conditions, including nutrient levels. The algae can work as a carbon-reducing system that can convert carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis, due to its handling of adverse conditions we can use microalgae for bioremediation of wastewater and the biomass produced during the process can serve as food, fertilizers, and late, biofuels.","PeriodicalId":142002,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mechanical and Construction Engineering (JMCE)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132740007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To overcome this problem, we are moving towards vertical constriction. The main problem in moving towards vertical construction is the foundation system, if the foundation system in high-rise buildings is not planned and designed smartly and economically then there are different problems related to the foundation system that is going to arise, the soil in that area also plays a very important role in designing of the economical and stable foundation system. It is always beneficial to have a raft foundation on alluvial soil for high-rise buildings. But, however, it is a matter of great concern what foundation will be proposed on such types of natural soils or man-made refills. In this paper, an attempt has been made to design a raft foundation based on its geotechnical analysis. An extensive survey of research works devoted to studying the geotechnical parameters affecting the behavior of raft foundations is carried out with detailed experiments raft foundations are increasingly being recognized as an economical and effective foundation system for high-rise buildings. This paper sets out some principles of design for such foundations, including design for the geotechnical ultimate limit state, the structural ultimate limit state, and the serviceability limit state. Attention will be focused on the improvement in the foundation performance due to the raft being in contact with, and embedded within, the soil.","PeriodicalId":142002,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mechanical and Construction Engineering (JMCE)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132543776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So, the use of excessive aggregate may lead to higher prices as a requirement of natural resources being costly. Solid waste management is attracting considerable interest these days. Different types of solid waste, such as waste tyres, have become a source of concern because they are not biodegradable nature. In many industries, for instance thermal power plants. The large proportion of discarded tyre rubber is converted into fuels, Cement furnaces, brick furnaces etc. Sad-ly, such use is not environmentally friendly and highly demanding, but it is costly. As a result, use of such leftover tyre rubber in making concrete was deemed to be an additional method of waste disposal. This type of garbage is intended to safeguard the environment. Attempt made in this analysis to classify the different properties mandatory for the creation of concrete mix with rough tyre rubber particles to be used as aggregate in a systematic manner.
