Polygonal shafts are used in power transmission as alternatives to keyed and splined shafts. They are designed using DIN standards. This research explores the loading strength of the standardized three lobed (P3G) and four lobed (P4C) polygonal shafts and hubs manufactured from the same stock size, subjected to torsional bending load at various fits. Due to complex conformal contact (nonlinear model) between the shaft and the hub, there is no analytical solution and, therefore, Finite Element Method had been used to determine the stresses, after validating experimentally and using the DIN standard. From the analysis, it was found that the hub experienced greater stress than the shaft in all cases and the major stress in a polygonal shaft and hub connection is the contact stress. The clearance fit was found to be the most detrimental fit and the interference fit to be the most suitable for larger power transmission. Owing to its small normal axial stress and hub displacement, the P4C clearance fit has its use in low power transmission where a sliding fit is a requirement. The maximum von Mises stress was located below the surface for P4C and P3G clearance fit, suggesting failure from pitting and fretting on these shafts. All of the stresses were found to be higher in P4C than P3G for similar loading. Therefore, for general use, the P3G profile with an interference fit is recommended.

The research work in this paper is focused on studying the failure behavior of an integral π-shaped laminated composite structure subjected to a bending load. A progressive damage model based on the 3D Tsai-Wu failure criterion and a developed gradual degradation model was employed to simulate and assess the load-carrying capacity, the onset and propagation of damage, and the failure mechanisms. For this unique π-shaped composite structure, disbonding was found to be the dominant damage mode under bending load, and the approximate maximum load could be maintained for a brief time during the final failure due to the gradual loss nature of the load-carrying capacity. The extent of damage was found to be more serious on the side of Rib II compared to the other side.

In this paper, a failure criterion applicable to large-strain finite element analysis (FEA) results was studied to predict the limit bending load Mc of the groove shaped wall-thinned pipes, under combined internal pressure and bending load, that experienced cracking. In our previous studies, Meshii and Ito [1] considered cracking of pipes with groove shaped flaw (small axial length δz in Fig. 1) was due to the plastic instability at the wall-thinned section and proposed the Domain Collapse Criterion (DCC). The DCC predicted Mc of cracking for small δz by comparing the von Mises stress σMises with the true tensile strength σB. However, it was indicated that the predictability of Mc was not necessarily sufficient. Thus, in this work, attempts were made to improve the accuracy of Mc prediction with a perspective that multi-axial stress state might affect this plastic instability. As a result of examination of the various failure criteria based on multi-axial stress, it was confirmed that the limit bending load of the groove flawed pipe that experienced cracking could be predicted within 5 % accuracy by applying Hill’s plastic instability onset criterion [2] to the outer surface of the crack penetration section. The accuracy of the predicted limit bending load was improved from DCC’s error of 15% to 5%.

The effect of thickness of externally bonded carbon fiber laminate (CFRP) on load-carrying capacity and failure modes was analyzed for the strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams under bending load. According to the balance equations of applied force and moment, the relation was obtained between ultimate loading of strengthened beam and thickness of CFRP, and the failure modes were predicted for the CFRP strengthened beams. The load-carrying capacity of strengthened RC beam is higher with thicker externally bonded CFRP until it reaches the ultimate loading. The mechanical analysis is in good agreement with the three-point bending experiments performed on CFRP strengthened RC beams.
