In work on the basis of a finite elements method it is offered numerical model of gas filtration in porous non-uniform environments with use of fractional derivatives in time. Kaputto and Rimman- Liouville's fractional derivatives are considered. The numerical analysis with use of experimental initial data is made. The received results can be used for a research of filtrational properties of the vicinity of the well, definition of its output depending on pressure distribution.

The objective of this article is to present the results obtained in a study on the interaction between the behavior of the structure and the foundation settlements and verify the influence of normal load distribution on the columns. In this mechanism, known as structure soil interaction (SSI), as the building is constructed, a transfer of loads occurs from the columns which tend to settle more to those that tend to settle less. The study was conducted in a building which had its settlements monitored from the beginning of construction. For this purpose, a linear tridimensional numerical model was constructed and numerical analysis was performed, using the finite elements method. In these analyses, numerical models corre- sponding to the execution of each floor were used, considering the settlements measured in each stage of the construction. The results of analy- ses showed that the effect of SSI are significant for calculating the normal efforts on the columns, particularly on those located in the first floors.

Abstract The paper presents analysis of stress distribution in the friction node of knee joint endoprosthesis where sleds are made of various titanium alloys and CoCrMo cooperate with spherical polyethylene inserts. Currently used titanium alloys consists of Nb, Ta, Zr or Mo and with lesser value of Young’s modulus than Ti6Al4V alloy, or steel CoCrMo, which significantly varies from other metal materials. The obtained results make it possible to indicate the “weak points” of the accepted solution, and thus counteract the subsequent effects resulting from premature wear of endoprosthesis elements. The analysis was conducted with numerical method of ADINA System 8.6. The Finite Elements Method allowed to compute and present stress distribution quickly in all elements of the model.

The paper presents the numerical analysis of stress and strain occurring in the most wearable parts of hip and knee joints endoprostheses. The complexity of the processes taking place in both, natural and artificial joints, makes it necessary to conduct the analysis on the 3D model based on already existing mathematical models. Most of the mechanical failures in alloplasty are caused by material fatigue. To cut down the risk of it, we can either increase the fatigue resistance of the material or decrease the load strain. It is extremelly important to indicate the areas where damage or premature wear may occur. The Finite Elements Method makes it possible to calculate the stress and strain in particular elements of the tested models. All presented numerical calculations define quality conclusions concerning the influence of some parameters of endoprostheses on the values of stress and strain that are formed in polyethylene parts of endoprotheses of hip and knee joints. The obtained results help to reveal “weak points” in examined models and thus, counteract the subsequent effects resulting from premature wear of endoprosthesis elements. The numerical analysis was performed basing on the finite elements method using Autodesk Simulation Mechanical 2017 software and the ADINA 7.5.1.

A method to simulate rolling contact wear in a rail surface was developed using the finite elements method and numerical analysis. A two-dimensional finite elements model was used in order to reduce the calculation time and boundary conditions to prevent excessive deformation of a wheel and a rail were applied. A numerical analysis of rail wear at rolling contact was predicted using the Archards equation. In addition, the characteristics of rail wear with the increasing speed of vehicle were analyzed. Results show that there was not a large difference in the depths of wear on the rail head with increasing vehicle speed, but the wear on the rail gauge corner increased with increasing vehicle speed.

O presente trabalho constitui-se de uma análise numérica, por meio de elementos finitos, objetivando a reprodução via software de um ensaio experimental de ligação parafusada semirrígida em perfis formados a frio, dada no âmbito tridimensional. A análise consistiu-se a partir da reprodução da geometria do protótipo, das condições de contorno e aplicação de carregamento. Para melhor previsão do comportamento da ligação, foram inseridas ao modelo a não linearidade física e geométrica. Foram obtidas as curvas força-deslocamento e a evolução das tensões de Von Mises para os diferentes componentes do protótipo. Os resultados indicaram que o modelo numérico é cerca de duas vezes mais rígido que o experimental. Todavia, foi possível observar que o comportamento do modelo numérico possui tendência similar ao do modelo experimental e também foi possível avaliar a contribuição dos elementos da ligação para o desempenho da mesma.Palavras-chave: Análise numérica.

The analysis consisted of the reproduction of the prototype geometry, the boundary conditions, and the loading application. For a better forecast of the connection behavior, physical and geometric non-linearity were inserted to the model. The force-displacement curves and the evolution of the Von Mises stresses for the different prototype components were obtained. The results indicated that the numerical model is about twice as rigid as the experimental one. However, it was possible to observe that the behavior of the numerical model has a similar tendency  if compared to  the experimental model and it was still possible to evaluate the contribution of the connection elements to its performance.Keywords: Numerical analysis. Semi-rigid bolt connection. Cold-formed profiles. Structural performance.

Nowadays, design based on purely deterministic analyses has been replaced by stochastic and reliability analyses which consider the uncertainties affecting the design parameters. But from a numerical point of view, these analyses become costly for industrial mechanical applications (modelled by finite elements method) because of their great number of freedom degrees. In this work, we take an interest in reducing the CPU time for stochastic and reliability analyses of an industrial mechanical application by the modal condensation of his numerical model with the component mode synthesis method. The example of a propeller is studied to validate the proposed methods. The results of this study tend to show the considerable gain in CPU which we save by the using of our methodology.

Abstract The problem of cooperation of powered roof support with the floor in the aspect of shaping its design is presented. From the analysis of the simplifying assumptions considered so far in the methods for determination of roof support’s base pressure on the floor, it results that they are not satisfied in the case of bases of the catamaran type, commonly used in currently manufactured roof supports. Model of cooperation of the base lying on the floor, prepared by the finite elements method is described and the results of computer simulation of the base action on the floor are given. Considering the results of numerical analyses, the factors influencing the pressure distribution of the base on the floor as well as its maximal value, have been identified.
