A reduced-order dynamic model, based on three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) and component modal synthesis technique (CMS), was presented for simulating the dynamic behavior of the spur gear system. The gear shaft and gear body were established via 3D elements to simulate bending and torsion of the gear system. The CMS technique was used to generate a reduced-order model of a spur gear system. A pair of mating teeth was assimilated to two different foundations (one for the pinion tooth and the other one for the gear tooth) linked in series by some independent springs, which was used to simulate the contact stiffness. The validity of the proposed model was verified by static analysis, dynamic analysis, and experimental analysis. The results show that the proposed model is an effective model. In addition, the proposed model has also been applied to analyze spur gear spalling faults. The results show that the dynamic response of the gear system is periodic vibration shock response due to the alternate meshing of single and double teeth. When the spalling fault occurs, some shock responses with significantly enhanced amplitude will be generated as the result of contact loss.

The oil-immersed transformer tank is an outside package component of the transformer body. The sealing quality and mechanical strength of the oil tank are affected by the deformation after loading. In this paper, the 3D finite element model of oil-immersed transformer tank is established. The oil-immersed transformer tank deformation is obtained by FEA under the condition of vacuuming. A series of experiments about the deformation of the oil-immersed transformer tank are carried out. Comparing experiment results with FEA results, FEA results are agrees well with the experiments’. It can save the time consumed on designing the oil tank, and has the directive function for the whole design.

The design methodology based on the planning of experiments and response surface technique has been developed for an optimum placement of Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) actuators in the helicopter rotor blades. The baseline helicopter rotor blade consists of D‐spar made of UD GFRP, skin made of +450/‐450 GFRP, foam core, MFC actuators placement on the skin and balance weight. 3D finite element model of the rotor blade has been built by ANSYS, where the rotor blade skin and spar “moustaches” are modeled by the linear layered structural shell elements SHELL99, and the spar and foam ‐ by 3D 20‐node structural solid elements SOLID 186. The thermal analyses of 3D finite element model have been developed to investigate an active twist of the helicopter rotor blade. Strain analogy between piezoelectric strains and thermally induced strains is used to model piezoelectric effects. The optimisation results have been obtained for design solutions, connected with the application of active materials, and checked by the finite element calculations.
