1Pendulum driven water pump - Rahul Srivastava, Arshad Habib, Mohd Aquib, Ramjeet Prasad, Rahul Kumar SinghDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Buddha Institute of Technology, Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, India

One important thing of a pump with a pendulum is that the work is alleviated or in simple terms it makes work rather easier when is compared with a traditional hand water pump. By the use of pendulum based water pumping system we can increase the efficiency of the plant and reduce the effort, cost of production, production time, and manpower requirement. The research done fill today is concentrated on the working and effectiveness of the mechanism only. Considering all of the advantages of the mechanism it was decided to use it for lifting water with the help of reciprocating pump such that the input to the mechanism is given by humans which is comparatively less than the effort applied by humans to lift water using hand pumps directly.

1Study and design of pendulum assisted hand water pump - Rejsha Khoteja, Sandhya Mishra, Sarad Niraula, Kshitij Kunwar, Nirajan Ghimire, Krishna Prasad Shrestha, Pratisthit Lal ShresthaDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Kathmandu University Dhulikhel, Nepal

The designed pump consists of a normal hand pump and a pendulum; held together into a mechanism by a metal structure. This pendulum pump aims to provide a solution for lifting water manually, which requires a large human effort when operated continuously. It is based on a very simple principle of the pendulum, lever two-staged oscillator mechanism. With the help of this principle, the reciprocating motion of the piston in the pump is obtained using the oscillation of a pendulum. The pendulum pump was designed using different calculations and was fabricated adding frame, springs, pendulum to normal piston pump for the actual experimentation. The project purely deals with the mechanical aspect of the pendulum pump, where an experimental approach is implemented to conclude.

2Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis of a Variable-Length Pendulum Water Pump - Godiya Yakubu, Paweł Olejnik, Jan AwrejcewiczDepartment of Automation, Biomechanics and Mechatronics, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering,, Lodz University of Technology, Poland

The pendulum, lever, and piston assembly are modeled by a separate dynamical system and then joined into the many degrees-of-freedom dynamical systems. The present work includes friction while studying the system dynamics and then simulated to verify the system’s harmonic response. The study showed the effect of the pendulum length variability on the whole system’s performance. The vertically excited parametric pendulum with variable length in the system is established, giving faster and longer oscillations than the pendulum with constant length. Hence, more and richer dynamics are achieved.

This paper deals with energy production from gravity. Moreover, this paper is also intended to gain the useful and green energy by using gravity effect. In this paper, two-stage mechanical oscillator with gear mechanism, cam mechanisms and dynamo is fabricated to conduct the experiment. The process of this machine is that when the pendulum is applied with the input energy, the pendulum oscillates on the free moveable pivot point and this oscillation effect can move the lever arm to produce the second oscillation motion as same as seesaw arrangement system. Meanwhile, at the other edge of the lever arm, the output can be available as impact effect. This effect can be used as the output energy to drive the other mechanisms such as hammer, water pump, electric motor, and generator for the useful energy.

3Design and fabrication of hand water pump operated by a pendulum - Rajeh Kumar Sahu, Rakesh Kumar Das, Supriya Dip, Sidartha MohapatraDepartment of mechanical engineering, Gandhi Institute of Engineering & Technology, Gunupur Rayagada Odisha, India

Hand water pump is the best solution to lift the water without using electricity. But it requires a large human effort which is not feasible for long time. When we need the supply of water continuously this is not the best solution to lift water continuously. So Hand water pump with pendulum is the best solution for pumping water without using the hand pump. This is providing alleviation of work, because it is enough to move pendulum occasionally with little finger to pump water, instead of large swing.

One important feature of a pump with a pendulum is that the work is alleviated or in simple terms it makes work rather easier when is compared with a traditional hand water pump.

2Design and Development of Hand Water Pump with a Pendulum - D. Apparao, Y. SagarDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Aditya Institute of Technology and Management, Tekkali, Andhra Pradesh, India

Hand water pump with a pendulum is a very simple solution for pumping water. It provides alleviation of work, because it is enough to move the pendulum occasionally with a little finger to pump the water, instead of large swings. Work is alleviated because easier, long-lasting and effortless use of the hand water pump has been enabled. Input energy for starting the process of pumping, in form of occasional pushing of the pendulum, is much less than with typical hand pumps. The operation of the machine is based on forced oscillation of the pendulum, since the axis of the pendulum affects one of the arms of the two armed lever by a force which varies periodically.

4Single acting piston pump using oscillating motion - Gowrishankar K., Gobinath M., R. GaniDept. of Mechanical Engineering, Kongu Engineering College, Erode, Tamilnadu, India

We initialized our project with an objective to reduce the human effort. The purpose of sucking the water from the ground, they were installing the piston pumps on every village. The reason behind the choice of piston pump is due to its less maintenance and less installation cost. But we were planned to replace that reciprocating motion with an oscillating motion. This method may be an already existing one, but the way of application is quite different in our project. Hence according to us by slight modification of an existing piston pump for adapting to the oscillating motioned piston pump, we can obtain the required amount of water with a minimum effort and with a low cost.

3The Convergence of Parametric Resonance andVibration Energy Harvesting - dr Yu JiaDepartment of Engineering, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom

Energy harvesting is an emerging technology that derives electricity from the ambient envi-ronment in a de-centralised and self-contained fashion. Applications include self-powered medicalimplants, wearable electronics and wireless sensors for structural health monitoring. Amongst thevast options of ambient sources, vibration energy harvesting (VEH) has attracted by far the mostresearch attention. Two of the key persisting issues of VEH are the limited power density comparedto conventional power supplies and confined operational frequency bandwidth in light of the random,broadband and fast-varying nature of real vibration.

1A parametrically excited vibration energy harvester - Yu Jia, Jize Yan, Kenichi Soga, Ashwin A. SeshiaDepartment of Engineering, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom

In the arena of vibration energy harvesting, the key technical challenges continueto be low power density and narrow operational frequency bandwidth. While the conventionhas relied upon the activation of the fundamental mode of resonance through direct excitation,this paper explores a new paradigm through the employment of parametric resonance. Unlikethe former, oscillatory amplitude growth is not limited due to linear damping. Therefore, thepower output can potentially build up to higher levels. Additionally, it is the onset of non-linearity that eventually limits parametric resonance; hence, this approach can also potentiallybroaden the operating frequency range. Theoretical prediction and numerical modelling havesuggested an order higher in oscillatory amplitude growth
