The response spectrum method is used to compute inertial response, estimates of response quantities developed for each mode, each direction of excitation and each input, if multiple inputs are considered. The total response is then formed by summing over all modal component, spatial component and excitation component responses. It estimate the structural response to short, nondeterministic, transient dynamic events. Examples of such events are earthquakes and shocks. Since the exact time history of the load is not known, it is difficult to perform a time-dependent analysis. It is a widely used procedure for performing elastic dynamic seismic analysis, represents the set of the maximum acceleration, velocity or displacement responses of a family of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) damped oscillators.   Fig: 1 For a given time period of system, maximum response is picked. This process is continued for all range of possible time periods of SDOF system. Final plot with system time perio...

Material which contain Pores are called Porous material, the weight of the porous material is less when compared to the solid material. The porosity of the material is defined by the Porous size the is formed in the material, there are different techniques for manufacturing these type of material depending on the size of the porous void that to be formed. There are wide range of applications like  catalysis, chemical separations, tissue engineering  and exhaust manifold. In the exhaust manifold the harm full chemicals are removed by using porous material. There are different types of Porous material according to direction of flow 1.  Isotropic 2.  Non Isotropic( Unidirectional, Axisymmetric, Orthotropic ) There will be change in the pressure, velocity and direction of flow changes according to the porous medium, by using Solidworks flow simulation can simulate the flow. Steps for creating the Porous medium in Flow study: 1. Create the wizard b...

Design Challenges Faced in Power and Process Industry Optimizing work flow for specialized domains such as piping, tubing and welding. Errors in design resulting in engineering rework and delays A bottleneck appears when overlooking a entire product which was developed under various CAD Software due to various constrains Unexpected Failure faced at higher pressure operation The life of the product not able to predict, due to that maintenance overtime and process productivity is critical Addressing these Challenge through SOLIDWORKS Solutions. In SolidWorks we don’t need to spend our time on designing standard parts and components, where all the standard components are available in design library itself which can be obtained by simple drag and drop. For further validation of the product those standard can be directly fetched in SolidWorks Simulation .   Fig1: Design Library SOLIDWORKS helps to eliminate the rework in ...
