... Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology MET 21100 – Strength of Materials Torsion Lab Experiment Performed: 4/3/14 Report Due Date: 4/17/14 Report Submitted: 4/17/14 Joshua Deakin Prepared for Aaron Kolb Introduction: In the designing of buildings and structures, torsion, or torque could be applied to certain members. Most times, torsion is found at almost all times in a vehicle, on each axle, the driveshaft, and many others parts in a vehicle. These members all need to withstand the angular moment or load that is acted on it. You do not want to step on the gas, and your driveshaft or axles snapping. You wouldn’t be going anywhere anytime soon. The torsion test primarily measures, at a certain moment or load, how much the bar or specimen is twisting and at what angle. This test can also be done in reverse order measuring the angle first, and recording the torque on the test material. The testing of a “torque-angle” graph can be somewhat similar to a “stress-strain” curve. There are a few different types of torsion tests * Torsion only: applying only a torque (what we had done) * Axial-torsion: Applying and axial, as in tension or compression, and a torsion force to the specimen * Failure: applying the load until the specimen fails, which includes a physical break, kink or other defect in the specimen * Proof: In this test, you apply a torsion and hold that force for an extended period of time * Operational: testing complete assemblies...

...Name: Kevin Lundstrom Class: Monday Group: 3 Lab Partners: Rusty Flocken Oliver Beres Torsion Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to ultimately determine the shear modulus, 0.2% offset shear yield point, and ultimate shear strength of two different materials: aluminum and brass. This was accomplished using a torsion test machine connected to a computer that recorded the torsion data. After determining these three material properties, the measured experimental values could be compared to published data to determine the accuracy of the test. Experimental Procedure In this experiment the specimens underwent torsion by means of a torsion test machine. This machine consisted of two drill chucks: one was attached to a rotating chain-driven wheel, and the other was held stationary. A potentiometer was used to determine the number of revolutions the rotating wheel had undergone. Strain gauges were attached to the stationary drill chuck. LabVIEW was used to measure and record the data from the potentiometer as well as the strain gauges. Each sample was measured until it failed. The length of each specimen as well as the diameter was recorded in order to perform calculations. Also, the diameter of the potentiometer as well as the drill chuck, as well as the minimum and maximum resistance of the potentiometer was recorded for calculations. Results/Discussion The recorded measurements are shown in the table below. These were necessary to perform the...

...artificial organs presently available for clinical use includes artificial hearts (blood pump), artificial lungs (oxygenator), artificial kidneys (hemodialysis), and artificial livers. Isolated hepatic perfusion : Isolated hepatic perfusion is a procedure in which a catheter is placed into the artery that provides blood to the liver; another catheter is placed into the vein that takes blood away from the liver. This temporarily separates the liver's blood supply from blood circulating throughout the rest of the body and allows high doses of anticancer drugs to be directed to the liver only. In 1920, August Krogh was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovering the mechanism of regulation of capillaries in skeletal muscle[4]. Krogh was the first to describe the adaptation of blood perfusion in muscle and other organs according to demands through the opening and closing of arterioles and capillaries. Applications of Perfusion: Being able to observe and quantify perfusion in the human body has been an invaluable step forward in medicine. With the ability to ascertain data on the blood flow to vital organs such as the heart and the brain, doctors are able to make quicker and more accurate choices on treatment for patients. Nuclear medicine has been leading perfusion scanning for some time, although the modality has certain pitfalls. It is often dubbed 'unclear medicine' as the scans produced may appear to the untrained eye as just fluffy and irregular patterns. More...

...Introduction All system which possessing mass and elasticity are capable of undergoing free vibration. The main interest of such system is the natural frequency of the vibration. Natural frequencies are a function of system stiffness and mass. Generally, all real systems have infinite number of natural frequencies. Resonance, large vibration, will occur in a system when the forcing frequency of the system is equal to one of the natural frequencies. Generally, vibration is a form of wasted energy and normally is undesirable is most cases. It generates noise, instability and will consequently lead to system break down which is a disastrous effect. This project studies a model vibration of a four-cylinder engine which is mounted on a cantilever. This system can be modeled as a mass spring system so that the vibration of the system can be studied. These vibrations are mainly due to the unbalance of primary or secondary forces and couples. 1. Background The model engine consists of four cylinders mounted of a crank shaft with different crank phase angles. A DC motor with a variable speed control drives the shaft and makes the four-cylinder to rotate. The shaft is rotating at a constant angular speed, however, producing an acceleration on the pistons. Hence there are some inertia forces acting on the crank shaft due to these accelerations. The relative crank phase angles of the four cylinders can be adjusted by loosen three Allan screws...

...What is Osteoarthritis? Osteoarthritis (or OA for short) is the most common type of arthritis and is associated with joint pain and reduced range of motion and quality of life. It is a vast, chronic condition which affects the weight bearing joints and involves biomechanical, morphologic and biochemical alterations of the matrix and cells of the bone. Common symptoms are pain in the affected joint area and loss of mobility however, structural changes may occur without any accompanying symptoms. In itself, OA is not a life threatening condition although it can affect considerably the quality of life. OA can be classified depending on the number of joints affected, the site which it affects and also the type. By type, one means whether it is inflammatory, generalised (affects many joints) or erosive (David & Lloyd, 1998). Osteoarthritis may also be divided into primary idiopathic or secondary. In primary OA there are no preceding injuries or trauma which could have caused it. The main cause is repetitive stress on the joint and cumulative changes to the joint surfaces. It is typically found in women over the age of forty five which repeatedly stress the same joints such as the knees and hips. Secondary OA, on the other hand, is caused by a previous condition, injury or disease. Injury to the joint, gout, rheumatoid arthritis and even obesity may eventually lead to the development of secondary OA (Koopman, 2000) Osteoarthritis Affecting the Knee Joint The knee is the most...

BSN III-C Submitted to: Mrs. Miraluna Echavez, RN, MN March 2013 UTERINE LEIOMYOMA/ UTERINE FIBROIDS Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths of the uterus that often appear during your childbearing years. Also called fibromyomas, leiomyomas or myomas, uterine fibroids aren't associated with an increased risk of uterine cancer and almost never develop into cancer. As many as 3 out of 4 women have uterine fibroids sometime during their lives, but most are unaware of them because they often cause no symptoms. Your doctor may discover fibroids incidentally during a pelvic exam or prenatal ultrasound. In general, uterine fibroids seldom require treatment. Medical therapy and surgical procedures can shrink or remove fibroids if you have discomfort or troublesome symptoms. Rarely, fibroids can require emergency treatment if they cause sudden, sharp pelvic pain or profuse menstrual bleeding. Symptoms In women who have symptoms, the most common symptoms of uterine fibroids include: * Heavy menstrual bleeding * Prolonged menstrual periods — seven days or more of menstrual bleeding * Pelvic pressure or pain *...
