Hello everyone, I want to ask something. Can we design a tube that can completely resist the flow of a fluid? Maybe using either viscosity or surface tension approach? Thanks

The sign error is the equation that states ma=F+(T1+T2)-fr and ma=F-(T1+T2)-fr. There is inconsistency at the (T1+T2) variable. It's like having y=x and y=-x and try to solve for x using the two function. My assumptions are that both move in equal angular acceleration since the diameter are the...

The rollers are both pulled by the same force F. There is indeed a link connecting them, yet this link is static so no kinematic analysis is needed to be done. You said that the belt is superfluous, meaning that the tension is zero? I try to solve It and what I found is that T1=T2, with no...

Hey, I'm trying to create a mechanism consisting of multiple rollers connected with belt, moving in the same linear direction with acceleration a, but I got stuck in finding the relationship between the forces and acceleration. I even got confused in building the FBD of only two rollers. The...

For the motion description, I think that the motion is that the pendulum has the constant acceleration a when θ=θmax. As for the two solutions, what are those? I'm sorry for the late reply, I've been out this weekend.

It's actually a dynamic question. The question is on the top left in my post (problem 3/92). We need to find the value of maximum theta. In my opinion, this condition will be reached when the pendulum have no relative motion with the slider, thus having the same acceleration a = g. I just wonder...

So, in analyzing every vibration problem, we need to analyze both linear and torsional approach. I thought we can just use either one, where one method covers the other. Thanks for the enlightment.

I mean, can this problem even be solved using a rotational spring system approach..?

Ok, below is the overview

Yes, cause actually, I'm just trying to learn here. It's not a homework, It's a problem example of a free vibration translational system problem. I understand the solution, but I need to ignore the effect of the torsion caused by the weight. I'm trying to use a different approach (torsional)...

So I was trying to learn how to build a mathematical model of an oscillating system. The system and FBD is shown below. I just got confused why I got a different value of k from both x force and torsional equilibrium equation? Am I missing something?

Hello everyone, So I'm trying to design a gripping system using a soft robot. I try to read a journal that explains about the gripping mechanism of the soft robot to measure the forces exerted by the soft robot to the object. The thing is, I got lost to several equations because I didn't find...

Oh yeah, that should be It. Then the perimeter length (and thus the cutting area) will depend on the knife trajectory and the distance between each adjacent knife. Thanks for helping me clear this up.

Hi everyone, My name is Rama and I'm a fresh grad mechanical engineer with solid mechanics as my focus of study. I aim to become an inventor, so I will try to work on various machine design project, starting with plastic shredder development. Please kindly help me. Thank you.
