Determine the design stress for bolts in a cylinder cover where the load is fluctuating due to gas pressure. The maximum load on the bolt is 50 kN and the minimum is 30 kN. The load is unpredictable and factor of safety is 3. The surface of the bolt is hot rolled and the surface finish factor is 0.9. During a simple tension test and rotating beam test on ductile materials (40 C 8 steel annealed), the following results were obtained : Diameter of specimen = 12.5 mm; Yield strength = 240 MPa; Ultimate strength = 450 MPa; Endurance limit = 180 MPa ​

Two technicians are discussing the intake air temperature (iat) sensor. technician a says that the computer uses the iat sensor as a backup to the engine coolant temperature (ect) sensor. technician b says that the powertrain control module (pcm) will subtract the calculated amount of fuel if the air measures hot. who is correct

Determine the damped natural frequencies and the steady state response of a decoupled damped forced two degrees of freedom system. 10ä1 + 2q1 20q1 10 cos t; 10q2 +4q2 + 40q2 10 cos t

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
