INTRODUCING ‘DESIGN OF MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT’

“Design of Mechanical Equipment” also known as “Machine Design” has historically occupied a prominent position in the curriculum of mechanical engineering and emphasizes on methods of engineering problem solving as related to design, analysis and deployment of man-machine interfaces. Design of Mechanical Equipment is one of the most competitive P.G. programmes in the country with candidates selected in IIT Delhi having rank up to 200 in GATE exam. The tough competition ensures that only the best engineering talent, possess-ing a good academic record throughout their universities and colleges get the opportu-nity to be a part of this programme. On joining here, ♦ The design of programme leads to hands on training on a range of machine design

methods not available in specialized programs like ITMMEC, IDDC and analysis based programmes like Applied Mechanics.

♦ The courses in this program have integral laboratory practice, leading to thorough grounding in problem solving practice in the field.

♦ Teaching Assistantship work (TA) work is a part of the program in all programs in IIT Delhi. We have chosen to mentor the students through close association with faculty through teaching assistance in practicals, projects and other administrative activities. This gives them exposure beyond the classroom level.

I hope that you will have time to go through the brochure attached that de-scribes their training and project in more detail. I hope that you will consider them for opportunities commiserate with their training and capabilities. Regards,

Program Coordinator Prof. Sudipto Mukherjee

STUDENTS PROFILE Ninad P. Kulkarni [email protected] M.Tech. project : Dynamic Analysis Of Geared Rotor Systems

The dynamic behavior of a geared rotor system is not only dependant on mass imbalance as in case of simple rotor systems, but it involves contribution of many other complicated factors. The analysis of geared rotor systems involves - ♦ Study of factors affecting dynamics of geared rotor systems, such as Mesh

stiffness variation, Backlash, Damping, Tooth errors, Friction etc. ♦ Establishing mathematical model of the system. ♦ Dynamic response analysis (unbalance & transient) of the model using FE

method. ♦ Extending the study to condition monitoring of geared rotor systems i.e.

predicting faults in gear teeth like crack, surface crater etc. from the vibration response.

STUDENTS PROFILE Jagdish M. [email protected] M.Tech. project: Electro-Magnetic Controller For Rotor Vibration Control

This project proposes an active vibration control scheme for controlling transverse vibration of a rotor shaft due to unbalance and presents a theoretical and experimental study. The technique uses electromagnetic exciters mounted on the stator at a plane, in general away from the conventional support locations, around the rotor shaft for applying suitable force of actuation over an air gap to control transverse vibration. Suitable force of actuation is achieved by varying the control current in the exciters depending upon a proportional and derivative control law applied to the displacement of the rotor section fed back by pick-ups with respect to the non-rotating position of the section taken as the reference.

Priti Yadav [email protected] M.Tech. project: Finite element analysis of knee joint prostheses.

Total knee replacement (TKR) has long been the standard operation to relieve pain and restore range of motion to knee joints damaged by osteoarthritis. But the major problem associated with TKR is implants cost and their life. From the current available knee implants it has been forecasted that frequency of revision surgery will be 270 thousand per year by 2030.With the increment in the knee replacements every year the need for the knee prostheses are increasing not only in quantity but also in quality in terms of the life of knee implants. To achieve this goal this project is aimed to review finite element analysis of natural knee as well as knee prostheses under different daily routine (walking, stair raising etc.) loading cycles.

STUDENTS PROFILE Madhava Krishna Tippa [email protected] M.Tech. project : Identification of Dynamic Forces Using Modal Analysis

The knowledge of dynamic forces in a me-chanical system subject to operational excitations is beneficial from the as-pects of design, control and diagnosis of the system. There are a great num-ber of engineering problems where direct measurement of forces is not possi-ble. Under such conditions, the dynamic forces are estimated by using meas-ured responses from vibration sensors mounted on the structure. The project work intends to develop a model of force identification technique to identify dynamic forces (e.g. harmonic, periodic and impact) acting on arbitrary struc-tures using measured responses, and also to study the relative performance of the widely used techniques for force identification in frequency domain.

Purna Chandra Rao Kommuru [email protected] M.Tech. project: Dynamic Analysis of Multistage Bladed Disc Systems

This project work deals with dynamic behavior of multistage bladed disc rotor. The rotor may have several bladed discs on the shaft, with each disc contain-ing fairly large number of blades. The blades may be pretwisted, tapered and staggered, with aerofoil section. Study of vibration in multistage bladed disc is as follows:

♦ Calculation of normal modes and natural frequencies for individual compo-nents and complete rotor, by using any FEM software (ANSYS).

♦ The calculated natural frequencies obtained for the blade, the shaft, the bladed discs are to be analyzed to discover the resonance conditions and coupling effects.

♦ Investigate the effect of shaft flexibility on the dynamic characteristics of the bladed discs and the coupling effects between the shaft and bladed disc modes.

STUDENTS PROFILE Monojit kumar Choudhury [email protected] M.Tech. project : Finite Element Model Updating and Dynamic Design of Spot Welded Structures

♦ Many structures in mechanical engineering which involve thin

metal sheets are fabricated by spot welding process. Such structures are widely used in automobiles and transportation industries.

♦ Due to many spot welds that go in the fabricated structures the modeling of these spot welds has a great influence on the dynamics of the entire spot-welded structures.

♦ The current work attempts to find out the degree of co-relation that exists be-tween the numerical models of such spot welded structures with that of dynamic test.

♦ To improve the accuracy of the numerical model to represent the results from dynamic test which will be done by model updating. This will be followed by structural dynamic modified studies using updated model.

Sridhar Vanka [email protected] M.Tech. project: Active Vibration Control Of Rotors

The objective of the present work is to control the transverse vibration response of a rotor-shaft and increase the stability limit speed of the system by applying based on nominal position fed back by proximity pick-ups. Similarly experiments would be carried. This work has been attempted by modeling the rotor material with the internal material damping to predict the stability limit speed. Finite element method is used to discretize the continuum and write the equations of motion.

STUDENTS PROFILE Ramakrishna Reddy Y. [email protected] M.Tech. project : Analysis and Design of a Magnetorheological Fluid based Squeeze Film Damper with Feedback Control

It is commonly known that about 80 to 90% of high speed rotating machinery use ball bearings due to its light weight, low friction, and ease in its installation, except inherent damping characteristics. In order to impart good damping to ball bearings, squeeze film dampers (SFD) based on magnetorheological fluid (MRF) can be efficiently utilized. Use of MRF in SFD offers variable damping charac-teristics due to change in its rheological behavior by externally applied mag-netic field.

Ajay Yadav [email protected] M.Tech. project: Condition Monitoring Of Gear Box

Conditioning monitoring seeks to monitor the health of the machine by taking vibration, acoustics, and temperature measurements. During operation, each element contributes to the overall vibration of the machine. Following steps are involved in condition monitoring of gear box: ♦ Need of condition monitoring and study of causes for the defects in gears. ♦ Experiments on the gear test rig setup with the help of sensors and

software. ♦ Use of various techniques (frequency domain analysis) to analyze the

experimental results such as Frequency Spectrum, Cepstrum Analysis, Wavelet technique etc.

♦ Analyze the results to get the location of the defect and take proper remedial action.
