    Offset Piston - Calculating Max. Angular Velocity

    Wondering if anyone can add to this. I want to derive a formula for angular acceleration so I can then work out the maximum angular velocity, but I'm not sure how to go about

    Offset Piston - Calculating Max. Angular Velocity

    I think when acceleration equals zero angular velocity will be at a maximum.

    How Do You Solve the Offset Slider-Crank Mechanism at θ = 45°?

    Hey OldEngr63, I'm sure your way of solving works but I'm looking for help solving using vector diagrams. Thanks anyways!

    How Do You Solve the Offset Slider-Crank Mechanism at θ = 45°?

    For part (iii) I am unsure how to solve using vector diagrams.. I think the crank being offset has thrown me I worked out aOA = 49.349m/s^2 and aBA(radial) = 6.161m/s^2

    Column buckling answer confirmation

    Thanks for the quick replies I have the Effective Slenderness Ratio as 118.74. Am I supposed to have another value to compare to this? Maybe by changing the yield stress value for the critical stress value? So I would get a higher ESR (Worked out as 2532.04) which would indicate Buckling. Is...

    Column buckling answer confirmation

    For part two "What would the mode of failure be?" How did you prove it would be buckling?
