Now a days, vibration measurement is important because development of proper vibration isolation system is not possible if we don't know the actual cause of vibration. Some instruments are already available in market but these instruments are having high cost. In the present work, it is aimed to develop a vibration recording instrument that will give better accuracy at a reasonable cost.

Automobile spring is a crucial component of passive suspension system and has major effect on Ride Comfort and Road Holding performance. Automobile suspension systems are designed by considering the linear behavior of system. In actual practice, system behaves nonlinearly. The present work deals with non-linearity of spring and study its direct effects on the passive suspension system. Mathematical model for the Passive Suspension System is developed and equations of motion are derived. Spring Stiffness Coefficients are obtained by experimentation. The results obtained are used as an input for MATLAB-Simulink to evaluate Ride Comfort. Thus, Ride Comfort determined by Simulation is compared with the experimentation on Quarter Car Test-rig. This study tries to build bridge between theoretical and experimental values of Non Linear behaviour of springs.

Vibration refers to mechanical oscillations about an equilibrium position. The oscillations may be periodic such as the motion of a pendulum or random such as the movement of a tire on a gravel road.Vibration is omnipotent, universal and multifaceted phenomena. It is an interdisciplinary field where physicist, mathematician and engineer interact in a closed loop. Research in vibration control has been an on-going study for decades, ever since the invention of mechanical systems. The vibration causes the effect on the operator of machineries. Increase the harshness level in working area..............

While the present scenarios in the automotive sector reflect to an extremely challenging atmosphere : fighting hard amongst each other in this fierce battle to outperform and outclass one another, there has been a dire need for something special when it comes to suspension systems. Ride comfort (RC) seems to be an unconfronted zone, though many theories supporting the same have been introduced lately. No road projects a profile that to its entirety seems homogenous and smooth. This has an invariably large effect on the degree of comfort that any driver would sense while driving his/her vehicle. On similar lines; this paper intends to establish a precise correlation between the implemented experiments and corresponding simulation analyses............

Title :: Modal Analysis of Titanium Nitrite Coated Stainless Steel Hip Joint Implant
Country :: India
Authors :: S . L. Gavali || H. V. Vankudre || K. N. Vijayakumar
Page No. :: 28-35

In this paper modal analysis of Hip joint implant used in Total Hip Replacement (total hip arthroplasty) is made. Objective of performing the modal analysis was to decide structural analysis of hip joint in static loading or in dynamic loading condition. Material used for Hip joint is Stainless steel 316L coated with Titanium nitrite. As coating is not contributing significantly to improve the mechanical properties of the implant but helps to improve the biocompatibility of hip joint. Modal analysis is the study of the dynamic properties of systems in the frequency domain. Modern day experimental modal analysis systems are composed of sensors..........

Title :: Measurement of Stress by Strain Gauge using NI Lab VIEW and its Validation with Simulations
Country :: India
Authors :: A.C. Mitra || P.M. Khaire || R.V. Shinde || P.S. Pamu || O.L. Jaybhaye
Page No. :: 36-40

Mechanical elements are subjected to various stresses due to different loading conditions hence it is necessary to calculate the values in order to avoid failure of the structure. A component fails because of axial stress, bending stress and torsional stress. The work presented here aims at developing a test rig to measure bending stress developed in cantilever beam. The test rig uses strain gauge in Wheatstone full bridge configuration to sense the deformation. Data Acquisition System is used to measure the stress due to point load and is integrated with NI LabVIEW software. Experimental and theoretical results are in close agreement and the Flexural formula was successfully validated.

Agriculture is the backbone of our country. The available management is not sufficient to that of requirement. Today the farmer themselves manages all the things which crop requires, but every person do not have the exact knowledge of the quantity and the time to apply to the crop. So here we have developed the system that will manage the temperature and intensity of Pesticides for the crops using the Micro-Controller, Every seeds manufacturing company as well as regional agricultural colleges provide the yearly scheduled for the crop. Our system will take this as the input through the program and then it will maintain temperature and intensity of pesticides in poly-house.............

Authors :: Rahul Mahajan || Akshay Dumbare || Vaibhav Gogawale || Pravin Dhore
Page No. :: 55-58

Aim is that the study of convective heat transfer of nanofluids with a base water in shell and tube type heat exchanger. The convective heat transfer rate is changes with the volume concentration. Heat transfer coefficient increases with increase in volume concentration. Different parameter are affect on the transfer rate in horizontal shell and tube type of heat exchanger like friction factor, viscosity, volume concentration etc. The convective heat transfer rate of nanofluids with base fluid is greater than the distilled water. And heat transfer efficiency is also improved by increasing thermal conductivity.
