In this paper, a finite-element method for calculating the sound field in a water tank with impedance boundaries is proposed based on the theory of standing waves in a tube. The equivalent acoustic impedance of the tank walls is calculated by establishing a three-dimensional axisymmetric virtual standing-wave tube in finite-element software, whereupon boundaries with that impedance are used as the tank boundaries. Since the impedance is the property of the material itself, the calculated impedance value can be used for the calculation of the three-dimensional sound field. The sound field due to a point source in a glass tank is calculated using the proposed method, the correctness of which is assessed experimentally. By comparing the experimental and numerical results, the proposed method is shown to be correct.

Since the theory of one-dimensional plane wave can not accurately predict the internal sound field of the complex structure muffler. The three-dimensional finite element method is adopted to establish the acoustic model of the composite muffler based on the application of composite muffler model. Transmission loss and characteristics of internal sound field of the composite muffler's are calculated through acoustic vibration software Sysnoise. The calculation shows that the muffler under the interference of fluid flow has the higher transmission loss compared with the absence of liquidity function with an additional silencer band. The analysis method and conclusions provide a basis for the design of composite muffler.

Abstract The paper describes the intention of the authors to determine whether it is possible to predict relative belt edge endurance for radial passenger car tires using the finite element method. Three groups of tires with different belt edge configurations were tested on a fleet test in an attempt to validate predictions from the finite element results. A two-dimensional, axisymmetric finite element analysis was first used to determine if the results from such an analysis, with emphasis on the shear deformations between the belts, could be used to predict a relative ranking for belt edge endurance. It is shown that such an analysis can lead to erroneous conclusions. A three-dimensional analysis in which tires are modeled under free rotation and static vertical loading was performed next. This approach resulted in an improvement in the quality of the correlations. The differences in the predicted values of various stress analysis parameters for the three belt edge configurations are studied and their implication on predicting belt edge endurance is discussed.

In this paper, a detailed three-dimensional, transient, finite element method of fuse link NH000 gG 100 A is proposed. The thermal properties during the operation of the fuses under nominal (100 A) and custom conditions (110 and 120 A) are the main focus of the analyses that were conducted. The work concerns both the outside elements of the fuse link (ceramic body) and the elements inside (current circuit). Both the distribution of the electric current and its impact on the temperature of the construction parts of the fuses during their operating mode have been described. Temperature distribution, power losses and energy dissipation were measured using a numerical model. In order to verify and validate the model, two independent teams of scientists executed experimental research, during which the temperature was measured on different parts of the device involving the rated current. Finally, the two sets of results were put together and compared with those obtained from the simulation tests. A possible significant correlation between the results of the empirical tests and the simulation work was highlighted.

Wave-based methods for acoustic simulations within enclosures suffer the numerical dispersion and then usually have evident dispersion error for problems with high wave numbers. To improve the upper limit of calculating frequency for 3D problems, a hybrid smoothed finite element method (hybrid SFEM) is proposed in this paper. This method employs the smoothing technique to realize the reduction of the numerical dispersion. By constructing a type of mixed smoothing domain, the traditional node-based and face-based smoothing techniques are mixed in the hybrid SFEM to give a more accurate stiffness matrix, which is widely believed to be the ultimate cause for the numerical dispersion error. The numerical examples demonstrate that the hybrid SFEM has better accuracy than the standard FEM and traditional smoothed FEMs under the condition of the same basic elements. Moreover, the hybrid SFEM also has good performance on the computational efficiency. A convergence experiment shows that it costs less time than other comparison methods to achieve the same computational accuracy.

We present the analyses of dynamics behaviors on a stroller wheel by three dimensional finite element method. The vibration of the wheel system causes by two different type barriers on the road as an experiment design to mimic the real road conditions. In addition to experiment analysis, we use two different packages to numerically simulate the wheel system dynamics activities. Some of the simulation results have good agreement with the experimental data in this research. Other interesting data will be measured and analyzed by us for future study and we will investigate them by using adaptive finite element method for increasing the precision of the computation results.

A coupled method between the Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (SBFEM) and Finite Element Method (FEM) for evaluating the Stress Intensity Factors (SIFs) is presented and achieved on the platform of the commercial finite element software ABAQUS by using Python as the programming language. Automatic transformation of the finite elements around a singular point to a scaled boundary finite element subdomain is realized. This method combines the high accuracy of the SBFEM in computing the SIFs with the ability to handle material nonlinearity as well as powerful mesh generation and post processing ability of commercial FEM software. The validity and accuracy of the method is verified by analysis of several benchmark problems. The coupled algorithm shows a good converging performance, and with minimum additional treatment can be able to handle more problems that cannot be solved by either SBFEM or FEM itself. For fracture problems, it proposes an efficient way to represent stress singularity for problems with complex geometry, loading condition or certain nonlinearity.
