    Apply Load
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenge of applying a non-parallel load to an inverted U-shaped object, which results in uneven load distribution. The user seeks assistance in determining stress concentration to assess whether this uneven load is contributing to failure in ANSYS simulations. There is a call for clarity, with one participant suggesting that the term "non-parallel" lacks engineering precision. The need for a visual representation of the setup is emphasized to facilitate better understanding. Ultimately, the focus is on analyzing the effects of the uneven load application on structural integrity.

hi...

i need help regarding applying a load that is not parallel(It's like an inverted u shape object applying load but due to it's non parallelity the load that is applied on the object is non uniform)

the difference is 1mm between one arm and the other of the inverted u object
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Do you have a drawing/image of this set up. What are you trying to achieve? Reusltant force?
 
the load applied on to the shaft is supposed to be parallel ...but it is not so...the load that is being applied on to the shaft is non parallel...so i need to determine the stress concentration to see whether this non parallel application of load is the cause for the failure in ansys....
 
You need to make a picture. You're an engineer. Non-parallel is a bogus non-engineering term. Stop using it.

Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'

Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...

Thread 'HP Required to move a robot 10meters at 1.5m/sec'

I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...
