Is it possible to machine a pattern of parallel holes that have the following criteria, and if so how easy/difficult is it?
1. Material: Cast medium strength steel
2. Hole dimensions: 9.5” long, 1.5” diameter
3. Hole tolerance: LC3 fit = 0 to .0026” diametrical tolerance for a tolerance zone...
I have a mechanism that can be modeled as a crank-slider mechanism. An external force acts on the rigid body, that is the modeled as the slider, causes the body to rotate and translate while it is translating along the slider path. The rotation is equivalent to the rotation of the connecting rod...
I'm looking for good reference literature on hertzian stress theory and empirical data that I can apply to the following cylinder slow rolling on flat plate configuration.
Cylinder:
Diameter = 100"
Length = 40"
Load on cylinder = 2 million pounds
Plate:
width = 40"
thickness =...
I'm struggling through reference papers on digital filtering. Can anyone recommend introductory information resources on this subject?
My application is to filter out noise from strain gauge data. I'm using a NI data acquisition pc card, LabView 5.1 Basic version, and MathCad 8 Professional...
Does anyone know the approximate mechanical properties of forged steel operating machinery shafts around the year 1912 from Strobel Steel Construcion Co., Chicago Ill? That is all the information known on the technical drawing.
I want to measure strain realtime on a 6" diameter rotating shaft. I was thinking it would be nice if there was a strain gauge system that could use radio frequency (go bluetooth) to transmit the volatage output data from my full wheatstone bridge to a storage medium. Does any one know of a...
