Abstract In this paper, quasi-static out-of-plane compression behaviors of Miura-ori patterned sheets were investigated numerically by using finite element analysis (FEA). The simulation results show a reasonable agreement with the experimental results. In addition, the parametric analysis of the Miura-ori patterned sheets with different cell wall thicknesses, side lengths, dihedral angles and sector angles were carried out using FEA method. The influences of different parameters on the peak force and mean force were determined.

A dynamic finite element analysis model for cylindrical roller bearing is developed, and the complex stress distribution and dynamic contacting nature of the bearing are investigated carefully based on ANSYS/LS-DYNA. Numerical simulation results show that the stress would be bigger when the element contacting with the inner or outer ring than at other times, and the biggest stress would appear near the area that roller contacting with the inner ring. Phenomenon of stress concentration on the roller is found to be very obvious during the operating process of the bearing system. The stress distributions of different elements are uneven on the same side surface of roller in its axis direction. Numerical simulation results can give useful references for the design and analysis of rolling bearing.

Frame adalah salah satu komponen yang sangat penting dalam sebuah kendaraan, yang berfungsi sebagai penopang penumpang, mesin, suspensi, sistem kelistrikan dan lain-lain. Melihat fungsi dari frame sangat penting, maka dalam merancang sebuah frame harus diperhitungkan dengan baik. Banyak sekali jenis pengujian yang sering dipakai dalam perancangan sebuah struktur frame, salah satunya adalah digunakannya metode komputasi dengan menggunakan metode Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui distribusi tegangan, regangan, displacement, dan safety factor dari hasil pembebanan statis pada frame gokar. Struktur frame didesain dan dianalisis menggunakan software Solidworks 2016. Material yang digunakan frame adalah baja AISI 1045 hollow tube 273,2 mm, dengan menggunakan pembebanan pengendara sebesar 50 kg dan 70 kg. Hasil dari perhitungan manual didapatkan tegangan maksimum sebesar 4,735  107 N/m2, sedangkan dari simulasi didapatkan sebesar 4,516  107 N/m2. Regangan maksimum didapatkan dari perhitungan manual sebesar 2,310  10-4. Displacement maksimum didapatkan dari perhitungan manual sebesar 1,864  108 mm, sedangkan dari simulasi didapatkan sebesar 1,624  108 mm. Safety factor minimum didapatkan dari perhitungan manual sebesar 11,193, dan perhitungan simulasi didapatkan sebesar 11,736. The frame is one of the most important components in a vehicle, which functions as a support for passengers, engines, suspensions, electrical systems and others. Seeing the function of the frame is very important, so designing a frame must be taken into account well. There are many types of tests that are often used in the design of a frame structure, one of which is the use of computational methods using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method. The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution of stress, strain, displacement, and safety factor from the results of static loading on the kart frame. The frame structure was designed and analyzed using Solidworks 2016 software. The material used in the frame is steel AISI 1045 hollow tube 27  3,2 mm, using a rider load of 50 kg and 70 kg. The result of manual calculation shows that the maximum stress is 4,735  107 N/m2, while the simulation results are 4,516  107 N/m2. The maximum strain is obtained from manual calculation of 2,310  10-4. The maximum displacement is obtained from manual calculations of 1,864  108 mm, while the simulation results are 1,624  108 mm. The minimum safety factor obtained from manual calculation is 11,193, and the simulation calculation is 11,736.

In posttensioned concrete members, the high local stress under the anchorage causes transverse tensile stress. Therefore, it is very important to predict the bursting force to determine appropriate reinforcement details. In the present work, the existing equations of the bursting force for the anchorage zone were evaluated and an equation for the bursting force based on finite element analysis was proposed to improve the model’s accuracy. Parametric analysis was performed considering the anchorage shape, tendon angle, and eccentric distance. The analytical results indicate that the existing equations underestimate or overestimate the bursting force. The proposed equation is able to predict the bursting force reasonably well for an anchorage zone with rectangular bearing plate, cavity, and eccentric distance.

The torque shaft of shearer cutting part plays a dual-function of torque transmission and overload protection when the Shearer is working. Therefore it is necessary to study the reliability of the torque shaft. First, the parameterized torque shaft model was built on Inventor and simple parametric analysis of the torque shaft was done by its finite element analysis module. The unloading groove depth 5.079mm met the overload protection requirements. Then the model was imported into professional finite element analysis software Algor to verify the results. Linear statics analysis in Algor showed that when unloading groove depth valued 5.479mm the torque shaft would be broken once the shearer overload. The results of the analysis were reliable as no data was lost during the model interaction between Inventor and Algor.

In this study, the tube sinking process for manufacturing the micro Ti-0.2Pd tube (2.4 mm external diameter, 0.4 mm thickness) was simulated by finite element analysis. The external diameter of the initial tube was 5.0 mm. In order to simulate the tube sinking process, the flow stress equation was deducted from the result of the tensile test and friction coefficient was indirectly obtained through the parameter studies. The simulation results showed the simulation error according to the change of diameter predicted to be less than 2%. The defect of the internal surface by stress was found through the experiment result.

Finite element analysis was used to simulate the evolution of damage in a Mg–3Al–1Zn alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). Oyane criterion for damage was selected to evaluate the fracture characteristics. Finite element modeling was used with experimental data obtained from tension and compression testing. The results show that initial crack may form in severe flow localization (i.e. in the inner corner) and these cracks may propagate, leading to billet segmentation. The flow grid in the simulation results is similar to that in the previous experimental results.

The dynamic explicit finite element software DYNAFORM was used to simulate the real and equivalent drawbead model. Analyzed the influence of the blank hold force (BHF) and virtual velocity on blank’s deformation behavior after passing through drawbead, compared the results of the FE simulation. The simulation results were confirmed by experiments. The study shows that the equivalent drawbead model can’t simulate the blank’s behavior precisely when it passing the real drawbeads, the effect of BHF on real drawbead model is larger than equal drawbead model; the proper range of virtual velocity was obtained at the same time.
