Coiled Tubing

The purpose of this paper is to present how hand-calculations and a general finite element analysis program can be utilized to determine under what conditions coiled tubing (CT) could buckle helically in a vertical well. This is especially useful when determining loads on the tubing in a completion or work-over application. Two situations are considered as described below. • A Quasi-Static case when either: –Weight is slacked off from the surface. or –A bottom force that may be generated by reservoir pressure for instance. • A Dynamic case, which occurs when: –Weight is slacked off too quickly and the tubing impinges upon an object causing an impulse to be generated into the tubing. This paper presents the theory for the hand calculations and shows how the hand calculations may be utilized for a field example. In addition, the same field example is considered in the general finite element analysis program and the limitations of the hand calculations are discussed as well as the capability of the dynamic finite element model simulation. Hand calculations restrict us to the quasi-static scenario and only allow an assessment of the deformation of the coiled tubing deformation in the linear-elastic range. In contrast, the general purpose finite element analysis software allows for large deformation, and non-linear material behavior. In addition, the general purpose finite element analysis software allows for tubing evaluation locally after lockup of the tubing occurs. Generally hand calculations or quasi-static simulators have been used to assess the deformation of tubing during an impact event; these have proven to be inadequate because they cannot capture the transient event and do not model the inertial forces correctly. The general purpose finite element code provides better estimates of the deformation and stress state of the tubing. When assessing the dynamic behavior of tubing, it would be prudent to utilize the capability of general purpose finite element software to obtain realistic and an accurate assessment of the deformation and stress state of the tubing.

Aluminum Target

Studying the armor-piercing effect of armor-piercing bomb that attacks aluminum target is essential, because the target can be considered the simulation of the actual fight equipment. Based on the hypothesis about building the fraction field, the armor-piercing effect of armor-piercing bomb is analyzed, and the velocity and the intruding depth parameter model of armor-piercing effect are established. Taking a certain armor-piercing bomb as example, the intruding processes of armor-piercing effect are simulated by using the nonlinear finite element analysis program LS-DYNA, while aluminum target simulates the wall of combat equipment in two different conditions. At last, the finite element simulated results are given and analyzed that agree with the experiments.

Hierarchical Representation

Abstract This paper deals with conceptual orientation and system development of intelligent support system for general purpose FEA (finite element analysis) programs. An integrated support system called “InhierTalk” (Integrated interactive environment for hierarchical representation for FEA) has been developed in Smalltalk, an object oriented language, in order to confirm effectivity of hierarchical representation and to establish an optimum method of the system development. Two object-oriented knowledge models which consist of macro visual data representation and micro regularized data representation are proposed. In the development, it is found to be clear that active and passive evaluation methods are effective for construction of support system.

The modal analysis and harmonic response analysis of the machine tool table with periodic truss-core structures are analyzed and calculated by finite element analysis software-ANSYS Workbench, then we get the finite element analysis results. After comparing the results with finite element analysis results of the original machine tool table, we come to the conclusion that the dynamic properties of the machine tool table with periodic truss-core structures are better than the original machine tool table’s. It makes a base for optimized design and remanufacturing.

Aerial Platform

The multi-stage boom consisting of several booms is used in order to develop the aerial platform truck that can be used in a working radius that is higher and safe. Because the length increases compared with the width or the height of the structure, the intensity and rigidity are lowered along with the safety. Accordingly, a countermeasure is needed. Therefore, in this research, when designing of the high ground work difference Boom System, the safety the stress of the considered boom the analyze method and experimental method tries to be evaluated through the comparison. The finite-element analysis(FEA) compared the Strain value which is obtained through the resolution value and actual experiment by using the Ansys,that is the general purpose program, and proved this safety.

Wrinkle Generation

The purpose of this research is to determine the state inside the material using finite-element analysis and to improve the performance of a rotary-draw bending forming by clarifying the mechanism of wrinkle generation. An analytical model of rotational drawing was made by using the general-purpose nonlinear finite-element analysis software MSC Marc, and the analytical results were compared with experimental results to verify the validity of the model. Furthermore, the mechanism of wrinkle generation was investigated. With the progress of processing, wrinkles occur not in the R part but in the original tube-side straight-tube part. The coefficient of friction between the tube material and the R portion of the bending mold promotes the occurrence of wrinkles and the growth of the generated wrinkles. Because wrinkles occur even if the friction coefficient between the tube material and bending mold R part is ignored, the generation condition of wrinkles also depends on parameters other than the friction coefficient.

Ключевые слова: экраноплан, аэродинамика экраноплана, аэродинамический поддув, динамическая воздушная подушка This paper presents the primary results of the study of the aerodynamic characteristics of a WIG, with due consideration of the blow and the influence of jets from the propeller, using CFD technologies. WIG of the Tandem scheme is considered as the object of this research. The paper presents a simplified technique for modeling a jet from a propeller. The computational experiment for the study of aerodynamic characteristics was carried out in the ANSYS finite element analysis program. The conditions of the computational experiment provided for changing the kinematic parameters (position of the WIG against the screen), speed of the jet, the angle of the jet blow, and use of wing mechanization (flaps). Analysis of the results leads to conclusions on effectiveness of the blowing application to this layout of the WIG. It also allows to reveal major effects from changing its aerodynamic characteristics with various jet parameters, configuration and position of the WIG against the ground. The paper also considers some of the features of WIG flight performance taking into account the effect of jets from the propeller.
