AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking engineering assistance for a generator design idea to assess potential risks. Participants express willingness to help with conceptual questions regarding the generator's type, size, and electrical specifications. They inquire about previous experience in building similar projects and the available fabrication tools. This collaborative approach aims to ensure safety and feasibility in the design process. Engaging with knowledgeable individuals can significantly enhance the project's success.
Scenario 1 (figure 1)
A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material.
The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm).
At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force.
Key numbers...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
which motor is reasonable for slider crank motion , where the motion of slider should be control with motor speed.
Thank you
