In the process of cutting, often the selection of cutting parameters is done considering empirical methods. This approach is more expensive and does not usually lead to the best solutions. Numerical methods for simulating the chip formation have been under development over the last thirty years. The aim of the present research is to compare models based on rheological properties of metals with 2D Finite Element Models of chip formation process.

The identification and selection of different physical parameters greatly influence the machining of materials. Cutting speed, feed, tool rake angle and friction are important physical parameters that affect the machining of the materials. Selection of suitable cutting parameters can help to achieve the better machining quality and enhanced tool life. Properly defined FE-model can efficiently simulate the machining processes and thus may help to save the machining cost and expensive materials instead of performing real-life experiments. In the present work, a detailed finite element analysis on the orthogonal cutting of aluminium alloy (AA2024) is conducted to validate the FE-based machining model. Numerically obtained resultant cutting forces are successfully compared with the experimental results for 0.3 and 0.4 mm/rev cutting feeds with 17.5° tool rake angle. Subsequently, the cutting forces are predicted for the selected feeds of 0.35 & 0.45 mm/rev and for different tool rake angles like 9.5°, 13.5° & 21.5° using finite element analysis. Finally, the optimum cutting parameters are suggested for cutting AA2024.

In this paper the character of loads exerted on bucket wheel was evaluated. The places of maximal stresses were determined by using finite element analysis. After this operation, a new wheel hub design was initiated. The first phase was related to development of new conceptions of the hub. The proposed conceptions were rated with respect to mass and total length of welds. This procedure led to selection of the most suitable design, which was optimized in order to minimize stress. The work at this stage consisted of continuous modification of the geometrical form, meshing of finite element model and structural analysis thereby providing information about stresses and deformations. The workmanship of the structural component and welded joints were defined according to DIN 22261 2:2006 standard.

The surround and the spider of the loudspeaker suspension are modelled in ANSYS to carry out finite element analysis. The displacement dependent nonlinearities arising from the suspension are studied and the material and geometric effects leading to the nonlinearities are parameterised. The ANSYS models are simulated to be excited by a sinusoidal load and the results are evaluated by comparison with the results obtained by a physical model. The paper illustrates how practical models can be analysed using cost effective finite element models and also the extension of the models to experiment on various parameters, like changing the geometry for optimisation, by computer simulation.

Abstract In high pressure applications, rectangular blocks of steel are used instead of cylinders as pressure vessels. Bores are drilled in these blocks for fluid flow. Intersecting bores with axes normal to each other and of almost equal diameters, produce stresses which can be many times higher than the internal pressure. Experimental results for the magnitude of maximum tensile stress along the intersection contour were available. A parametric finite element model simulated the experimental set up, followed by correlation between finite element analysis and experimental results. Finally, empirical methods are applied to generate models for the maximum tensile stress σ11 at cross bores of open and close ended blocks. Results from finite element analysis and empirical methods are further matched. Design optimization of cross bores is discussed.

Finite Element analysis is used to determine and to minimise the stress concentrations which arise in a “Smart” material system due to the embedded optical fibre sensors. The FE results show that with careful selection of the coating stiffness and thickness the stress concentrations caused by the fibre inclusion in the host material can be reduced.

Finite element analysis has been performed to study vibrational characteristics of cantilever single walled carbon nanotubes. Finite element models are generated by specifying the C-C bond rigidities, which are estimated by equating energies from molecular mechanics and continuum mechanics. Bending, torsion, and axial modes are identified based on effective mass for armchair, zigzag and chiral cantilever single walled carbon nanotubes, whose Young's modulus is evaluated from the bending frequency. Empirical relations are provided for frequencies of bending, torsion, and axial modes.

This paper makes the emulate experimental research of cutting force in high-speed dry gear milling by flying cutter with finite element analysis method by using the established cutting force model yet, makes the comparative analysis for the result of simulation experiment and theoretical calculation, verifies the correctness of cutting force model and calculation method, makes the comparative analysis for the influencing relations and changing laws of cutting force and cutting parameters and so many factors, and reveals the cutting mechanism of high-speed dry gear milling by flying cutter initially. By the research of this paper, it provides basic theory for subsequent cutting machine technology of high-speed dry gear hobbing, and establishes the theoretical basis for the spread and exploitation of this technology.
