Hi, thank you for your replies.
Could I clarify one thing. This coefficient of friction, is this the same a rolling resistance or is that completely different?
Also using the information given, I need to work out the maximum speed I can go round. If I take the coefficient of friction to be...
Calculating velocity around a corner
Hi Everyone,
I am working on a mecatronics project to control a buggy around a track, which uses sensors to determine where on the track it is and has a separate, rear wheel motor controls.
I want to perform a theoretical calculation to determine the...
Hi everyone, happy christmas
I am working on a project looking into the inertial feel of a bicycle. The overall aim is to calculate the inertia of a bike and rider and to consider how this inertia feel can be recreated in an exercise bike and to quantify the differences through testing. In...

Hi
Thanks for your responses. In order for me to look into this further, 'stewartcs', can you tell me where you got the equation from or from which book?
Thanks
Hi
I'm currently setting up a simple cantilever beam experiment. The cantilever will be positioned vertical and a spray force will be exerted from the left hand side, causing the plate to deflect. This deflection will be measured and recorded.
My question is how do I calculate the...
Hi
Thanks for that! I see what you mean abut using Newtons law. Saying that however, is there a differnce in calculating the force of a spray by considering it as individual particles and then considering it as a cloud of gas? Also are there alternative, more precise means of calculatig force...
Hi everyone
I'm doing a project which looks at the measurement of astha inhaler spray force. The idea is that a spray will be propelled from an inhaller onto a flat plate and the force will be measured using a load cell for example. To get an intial idea of the size of forces, I am trying to...
Firstly to clarify. the measurment that needs to be taken is of the diameter of the graphite bricks which make up a nuclear reactor core. The measurment instrument needs to be integrated into a 1m inspection unit which performs core montioring of graphite bricks and fuel channels. The idea is to...
Hi, I am on a placement year with an engineering company who design tools for the nuclear industry. One of the tasks I have been given looks at what linear measurement devices can be used in a radioactive environment? I havn't been able to find much and was wondering if anyone could point me in...
