This paper elaborates on the production mechanisms of standing waves during high-speed tire rolling and analyzes the relationship between the change of wavelength of sidewall waves and the vehicle velocity, from an oblique wave point of view. A finite element model for a 195/65R15 radial tire is established with the nonlinear analysis software ABAQUS, based on the tire structure and cord parameters. This paper comparatively analyzes the finite element simulation results and experimental results of the tire load-sinkage relation and the load vs inflatable section width relation and finds little difference between the simulation and experimental results. A similar analysis studies the change in the wavelength of sidewall standing waves at different vehicle velocities during high-speed tire rolling. The calculated value by the oblique wave approach, the value by simulation, and the experimental results demonstrate high consistency, concluding that during high-speed tire rolling, the wavelength of sidewall standing waves increases with vehicle velocity. Thus, the accuracy of the finite element model is verified under both static and dynamic conditions. Under a constant tire pressure and load, the impact of velocity change on tire-cord stress during high-speed tire rolling is studied based on the finite element model so as to identity the relation between the cord stress and standing waves.

Purely vertical 4H-SiC JFETs have been modeled by using three different approaches: the analytical model, the finite element model and the compact model. The results of the modeling have been compared with experimental results on a series of fabricated self-aligned devices with two different channel lengths (0.3 and 1.1μm) and various channel widths (1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4 and 5 μm). For all the considered models I-V and C-V characteristics could be satisfactorily simulated.

Riser system is a key equipment for offshore oil and gas development. When conducting riser design, fatigue failure mode is the chief one among the many failure modes which should be taken into account. To assess the fatigue performance of riser accurately, it is necessary to conduct fatigue tests. Resonant bending fatigue test is one effective method for fatigue tests of risers. In this paper, the principle of resonant bending fatigue test and test procedures are presented firstly, and then a finite element model using ABAQUS is created to simulate the resonant bending fatigue test, and the results from the finite element model are compared with the experimental results. The good agreements between the FEM results and experimental results verify the accuracy of the finite element model in this paper.

As the three-dimensional finite element model has become the de facto standard for ship structural design, interest in accurately transferring seakeeping loads to panel based structural models has increased dramatically in recent years. In today’s design practices, panel based hydrodynamic analyses are often used for mapping seakeeping loads to 3D FEM structural models. However, 3D panel based hydrodynamic analyses are computationally expensive. For monohull ships, methods based on strip theories have been successfully used in the industry for many years. They are computationally efficient, and provide good predictions for motions and hull girder loads. However, many strip theory methods provide only hull girder sectional forces and moments, such as vertical bending moment and vertical shear force, which are difficult to apply to 3D finite element structural models. Previously, the authors have proposed a hybrid strip theory method to transfer 2D strip theory based seakeeping loads to 3D finite element models. In the hybrid approach, the velocity potentials of strip sections are first calculated based on the ordinary 2D strip theories. The velocity potentials of a finite element panel are obtained from the interpolation of the velocity potentials of the strip sections. The panel pressures are then computed based on Bernoulli’s equation. Integration of the pressure over the finite element model wetted panels yields the hydrodynamic forces and moments. The equations of motion are then formulated based on the finite element model. The method not only produces excellent ship motion results, but also results in a perfectly balanced structural model. In this paper, the hybrid approach is extended to the 2.5D high speed strip theory. The simple Rankine source function is used to compute velocity potentials. The original linearized free surface condition, where the forward speed term is not ignored, is used to formulate boundary integral equations. A model based on the Series-64 hull form was used for validating the proposed hybrid method. The motion RAOs are in good agreement with VERES’s 2.5D strip theory and with experimental results. Finally, an example is provided for transferring seakeeping loads obtained by the 2.5D hybrid strip theory to a 3D finite element model.

This paper is to study actuation displacement of a Lead Zirconate Titanate (PbZrxTi1−xO3 or PZT) thin-film membrane actuator via finite element modeling and laser-Doppler measurements. In particular, this paper is to identify possible parameters that could cause discrepancies between the finite element predictions and experimental measurements. A twofold approach is used. First, we conduct additional experiments to measure actuator dimensions, which are subsequently used as input to the finite element model. We also measure natural frequencies of the membrane actuators to compare with the finite element predictions in addition to the actuator displacement. Second, we have conducted a parametric study via the finite element model to identify possible parameters that could cause the discrepancies. Parameters varied include dimensions, material properties, residual stresses and linearity of the PZT thin-film membrane actuator. Simulation results indicate that the residual stresses are the most probable cause of the discrepancy between the theoretical predictions and the experimental results.

Abstract. As a modern high-tech rail vehicle, the maglev train realizes the non-contact suspension and guidance between the train and the guideway, which greatly reduces the resistance of the system. Due to the high-speed operation characteristics of maglev trains, the structural health monitoring of guideway girders is particularly important for the safety and stability of maglev train operation. This paper takes the maglev train guideway girder as the monitoring target, and the finite element model of the maglev vehicle-guideway is established to simulate the running state of the train passing through the guideway girder. The dynamic response data of the guideway girder is obtained in the finite element model, considering healthy states and different damage states of the guideway girder. Then, a modal-based damage identification method is proposed, which obtains the guideway girder damage sensitive characteristics by decomposing the guideway girder acceleration response signal. Finally, based on the measured guideway girder acceleration data, this paper verifies the effectiveness of the damage identification method in guideway girder structure health monitoring, which provides reference and guidance for the future maintenance of the maglev guideway girder.

It is known that coolants play an important role in the grinding operation by reducing the heat that is generated on the work piece. As large amount of specific energy is spent in removing very small amount of the work piece in the finishing operations like grinding, the convective property of coolant plays a significant role in providing the required cooling effect. In today’s world, people have been customizing the coolant used for industry purposes as well as in the area of research. Thus the coolant property becomes an unknown quantity and the convection coefficient of the coolant, which dictates the quantity of heat removed from the workpiece during grinding, determines the coolant’s effectiveness. In this paper the convection coefficient of the coolant was determined for a particular velocity by computing and tuning of finite element model against experimental results. The convective property depends on various parameters such as thermal conductivity, heat capacity among others but in this paper, its dependence on velocity of the coolant is stressed. It was determined from the experimental results of surface grinding operation on workpiece and then comparing them with the finite element model simulated in ANSYS. By varying the convection coefficient parameter, the finite element model was fitted to the experimental results thus resulting in the determination of convective coefficient property of the coolant.

The contact characteristics of ceramic-metallic interactions are of critical importance in the design of high-speed ceramic rolling contact bearings. This type of interaction is not described well by traditional indentation tests since small displacements and barely discernable indentations are encountered. In this work, an optical microscopy system is described that is used to measure small indenter displacements accurately. Images of the indenter are taken throughout the test and processed using sophisticated edge detection algorithms to accurately determine the position of the center of the indenter. Thus, the indenter displacements on the order of 1μm can be measured independent of any structural flexibility present in the test apparatus. Experimental indentation tests using an alumina indenter mounted on a stainless steel post were performed and processed with the optical system. The results were compared to existing analytical models for fully elastic and elastoplastic cases as well as a finite element model developed using a Johnson–Cook plasticity material model. The comparison shows that the analytical models do not predict the experimental results well, whereas the finite element model agrees very well. Subsequent analysis of the finite element model shows that the size of the contact zone and pressure distributions, both very important in the design of bearings, can be more accurately described than the traditional analytical treatments.

The AA 5083 aluminium alloy is widely used in high speed marine vehicles. The aim of this scientific work was to develop and validate a procedure, starting only from hardness measurements, to predict the elastic-plastic behavior of AA 5083 welded joints under static loading using non-linear FEA analyses. The hardness measurements allowed identifying the different zones and to assess their different mechanical properties, which were considered in the finite element model. Finally, the finite element model results were validated experimentally, comparing the results with the measurements obtained by means of a full-field technique such as the Digital Image Correlation technique.
