First, this paper established the seal structural 2D axisymmetric model of a certain Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) and calculated the deformation and stresses at ignition through a large displacement, incompressible, contact finite element analysis. The results show that the maximum contact stress appears at the contact area and the maximum shear stress at groove notch. Then, some typical parameters of the seal structure which might have the impact on the sealing performance, such as the gap breadth, initial compressibility, fillets of the groove notch and bottom, groove width, were analyzed. We can find that the gap breadth and initial compressibility do great contributions to the maximum contact normal stress, and the groove notch and bottom fillets act upon the maximum shear stress obviously. In order to verify the validity of the 2D axisymmetric model, 3D structural finite element analysis of the structure was conducted, and the results indicate that in service, the upper flange is inclined relative to the nether flange, which seems to mean that the gap breadth can not be considered as a constant during the 2D axisymmetric analysis. However further calculations say that if using the minimum gap breadth gotten in 3D analysis as its constant gap value, the above 2D axisymmetric model can rationally take the place of 3D model to analyze the sealing performance. Finally, the failure modes & criteria of the O-ring seals based on the maximum contact normal stress and shear stress were determined to ensure the reliability of this structure.

Non-linear finite element analysis has been used to investigate the contact problem between a buttock and a cushion of varying properties. The buttock tissue has been modelled on the macroscale by assuming it to be a hyperelastic (rubber-like) material with properties that correspond to the overall buttock response. Both rigid and flexible cushions have been considered. The contact between the cushion and the buttock has been modelled assuming both friction and friction-free conditions. The effect of these parameters on the buttock-cushion deformation and the tissue compressive and shear stress distributions have been presented. This study forms part of work towards the development of body segment simulators for use in investigations of seating and other support surfaces.

The thermal stresses generated in ZrTiN coating deposited on HSS and tungsten carbide substrates are investigated by finite element analysis and calculated by mathematics model. FEM analysis provides detailed information about all stress components. The influence of deposition temperature, substrate materials, coating thickness and interlayers on the generation is analyzed. The thermal stress of coatings has a linear relationship with deposition temperature, and an inverse relationship with the coating thickness. The results of simulated thermal stress are in accordance with the analytical method. The highest shear stress found at the interface between the coating and substrate indicates that the interface is the critical location which is learned from the failure point of view. Results also show that the insertion of TiZr interlayer between the coating and substrate can reduce the stress components especially the shear stress. The interlayer thickness has a great effect on stress reduction.

The G-3503 centrifugal pump functions to flow Diethanolamine fluid with a viscosity of 380 Cp which functions to reduce H2S and CO2 levels in natural gas. When operating, the pump shaft experiences a torque load which causes the shaft to be twisted by 80. From the exact and finite element analysis results, the shear stress that occurs on the shaft is greater than the shear stress of the shaft material. Thus, the shaft is deformed plastically. The shear stress that occurs is 164 MPa

Purpose: To analyze and estimate the strength of duralium rivets which had been treated by using multistage artificial aging compared with duralium that had not been treated. This processwas necessary to be conducted in riveting process effectively. Duralium has been widely used in aerospace industry, one of duralium usage in aerospace industry is aircraft fittings such as rivet. Riveting is one of method that used for joining airframe structural components. During riveting process, the load transfer causing stress that led to the fatigue. Riveting process also causes deformation on the rivet and sheet metal. Deformation that occurs on the rivet will affect the performance of rivet structure. Thus, duralium rivet was analyzed its total deformation, shear stress, and its equivalent stress Von Misses. Design/methodology/approach: that used in this study was finite element analysis. Geometry of rivet that used in this study was drawn by using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2018. While total deformation, shear stress and equivalent stress Von Mises on duralium rivets were found out by using ANSYS Workbench 18.1. Findings: Comparison result was obtained between duralium rivet with and without treatment of multistage artificial aging. The result shown that total deformation, shear stress and equivalent stress Von Mises which obtained by duralium rivet with multistage artificial aging had the lower value than duralium rivet without multistage artificial aging. Duralium rivet with multistage artificial aging could be used as aircraft fitting which had the higher strength. Research limitations/implications: Direct experiment on duralium rivet had not been done yet, this study only did simulation based on data that obtained form previous research that had been conducted by the researcher. Practical implications: Duralium rivet with multistage artificial aging had lower value on total deformation, shear stress, and equivalent stress Von Misses, thus duralium rivet with multistage aritificial aging had a higher strength.
