In electrical engineering, a load profile is a graph of the variation in the electrical load versus time. A load profile will vary according to customer type (typical examples include residential, commercial and industrial), temperature and holiday seasons. Power producers use this information to plan how much electricity they will need to make available at any given time. Teletraffic engineering uses a similar load curve.
I have a barn that with a central bay that was originally designed for supporting hatywagons, so it's undergirded by three huge tree trunks used as beams (running longitudinally, parallel to wheel tracks). It has previously been rated by an engineer as being capable of supporting 45 psf at its...
I am trying to decide on the material and dimensions for the rail. The rails are supported on either side of a 10ft span.
-- What dimension steel angle can carry a 200lb load across a 10ft span? a=? b=? c=?
-- What dimension aluminum angle can carry a 200lb load across a 10ft span? a=? b=? c=?
Hi all. I'm designing a custom spare wheel carrier for my 4wd and currently seeking knowledge on which bearings to use, so I need to work out what force on the bearings will be when it's open (closed will be locked and fully supported!)
The example image is simplified for calculation. Close...
hi
Wondering if someone could help.
I need to know how to work out the the force at point 'A' ( see sketch attached).
Its a door opening and closing mechanism and it consists of a hydraulic cylinder 32mm dia bore operating at 140 bar. The door is opened and closed via couple of linkages as the...
i am making a plate straightining maching for 25x2100 mm plate.
motor- 30 hp and 960 rpm
worm reduction gear box- 100:1
Please tell me about the selection of roller by which i can straight the plate, and gear also.. if center distance between gear is 280 mm
Hi everyone, thank you for reading my thread I know the question is weird but I can't seem to explain it otherwise.
My problem:
Basically I am finishing a final year project which I based on a Formula Student Vehicle. Using CAD I have the vehicle modeled, and through the model analysis and with...
Hi all, a pretty simple question. I want to be able to calculate the load on a 100amp 3 phase service. As an example if I have 9 lighting fixtures that are rated @ 11 amps 208v each (auto ranging 200-240v actually but service will be 3 phase so 208v ish)
Putting evenly across each leg x,y,z...
1. A hydraulic cylinder equipped with a helical coil compression spring(figure is attached). The oil pressure acts the spring and moves the boom from position 1 to position 2.
Maximum boom load in position 1 F1max= 16550N
Minimum boom load in position 2 F2min = 18550N
cylinder load...
Can you please help me out to find out the load that a Hollow pipe can withstand.
OD-320mm
ID-310 mm
Height-600 mm
Material -Mild Steel
How much load can it withstand? Your help will be appreciated.
Hi dears
I am doing a random vibration analysis on a reciprocating rotary system and I need to calculate the load that applied to the bearing during the analysis.
the picture is attached to post.
thanks
Hello everybody,

Good day everyone.
I have built a car port post in an inverted L shape and want to calculate the load that it can support.
I think I have “over-killed” the posts enough.
I am curious to see how much weight this structure could hold.
Any way of calculating the load at the area which...
I'm joining a flange and a cap using 9 bolts with a steel gasket placed in a 'o' ring. To ensure that the joint is leak proof, I need to calculate the load distribution in the area between two bolts for a given torque in the bolt[please refer to the figure, where the lines indicate the area...
Hello, we are doing an activity at work to calculate what the shock load would be on a wire cable under the following conditions.
There is some conjecture on how best to do this so we figured it would be best to ask some people with bigger brains than us ;)
Hopefully the following info is...

Hello,
First time post long time lurker! I've got an interesting project I am working on which involves a few MechE subjects. The overall goal (for now) is to determine the drag force of a cylindrical cone headed object in sand under various pressures. The movement of the cylinder is the tricky...
