In the latest years, because of the immoderate exploitation and growing use of petroleum for energy, present day industries and transportations are contributing to the direction of emission of exhaust gases including CO2 and inflicting international warming. Bicycle is very environmentally friendly, safe, and efficient way of conveyance among the man powered vehicles and are a form of exercise with many other applications and advantages, the bicycle industries are promoting them as green products. The frame is the main component in a bicycle to support the external loads acting on it. As all the important accessories are mounted on the frame, different kinds of masses along with weight of rider, braking force, and the response from floor are immediately transferred to it. The frame needs to be strong, stiff, and lighter in weight, that is acquired through combining extraordinary substances and optimizing its structures. In this paper, the static, dynamic and fatigue evaluation of a bicycle frame is achieved to decide the life of frame, deformation, stresses, and von-misses stress appearing at the frame under loading circumstances for different materials. The frame modelling carried using CATIA V5R20 and simulation performed by ANSYS 19.0 Workbench software. From the analysis it is found that for all the cases the maximum stress is less than yield strength of selected materials, so the design is safe.Keywords

In the present work, an attempt has been made to synthesize metal matrix composite using Al7075 as matrix material with B4C particles as reinforcement using liquid metallurgy technique in particular stir casting process. Microstructural characterization was carried out for the above prepared composites by taking specimens from central portion of the casting by microstructural studies and SEM analysis. Tensile, shear, compression and bending properties of the prepared composite were studied before and after addition of Al7075 particulates to note the extent of improvement. Microstructural characterization of the composites has revealed fairly uniform distribution of B4C particulates and some amount of grain refinement in the specimens.
The design and analysis of wing root fitting of on medium fighter aircraft carried out using CATIA V5 and ANSYS workbench software. Finite element method is used for the stress analysis. Calculation of equivalent stress, shear stress and total deformation will be considered under this study.

In the current work, computational study has been carrying out on the both baseline serpentine duct to know the flow behaviour and baseline with vortex generator to know the effect of vortex generators on the flow properties of the duct. A set of vortex generators are chosen for the study, by keeping all other parameters constant. Here in current work, for modelling the duct and vortex generator CATIA V5 is used; to discretizing the geometry ICEM CFD is used. For the analysis, the computational fluid dynamics tool FLUENT is used, SST k-ù model available in the FLUENT is used for the computations, and the results of current work will be validated with experimental results and shows that they are converged. Use of vortex generator in the current work proved extremely effective in enforcing the active flow control. Results obtained in this work are to study the pressure recovery at the engine face. The results ensure that the current work on the baseline model of serpentine inlet duct and model with vortex generator comparison is well established in case of pressure recovery and decrease in engine face distortion. After comparing the result of both baseline duct and duct with vortex generator we are expecting at least 25-35% of pressure recovery at the engine face. In the present study significant improvements characterized by an improved pressure recovery and decrease in distortion are observed over the baseline model of serpentine duct for vortex generator model. This reduction in pressure loss and distortion enhances the engine performance of thrust and also improves the overall performance of the engine.
