To improve the design of electric drives and to better predict the system performance, numerical simulation has been widely employed. Whereas in the majority of the approaches, the machines and the power electronics are designed and simulated separately, to improve the fidelity, a co-simulation should be performed. This paper presents a complete coupled co-simulation model of synchronous reluctance machine (SynRel) drive, which includes the finite element model of the SynRel, the power electronics inverter, the control system, and application examples. The model of SynRel is based on a finite element model (FEM) using Simcenter MagNet. The power electronics inverter is built using PLECS Blockset, and the drive control model is built in Simulink environment, which allows for coupling between MagNet and PLECS. The proposed simulation model provides high accuracy thanks to the complete FEA-based model fed by actual inverter voltage. The comparison of the simulation results with experimental measurements shows good correspondence.

The Finite Element Model

The finite element model of rubber bush mountings is built up. And the value of the reduced tilting stiffness is obtained directly by solving the model. The simulation data and the experimental data can be seen to agree very closely. This fully proves the reliability of the simulation model. Based on this simulation model, which has been parameterized, the influence of the axial length and inner and outer radii on the reduced tilting stiffness of rubber bush is studied by using the co-simulation of MATLAB and ANSYS.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced

In this study a numerical simulation model was designed for representing the joining process of carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP) and aluminum alloy with semi-tubular self-piercing rivet. The first step towards this goal is to analyze the piercing process of CFRP numerical and experimental. Thereby the essential process parameters, tool geometries and material characteristics are determined and in finite element model represented. Subsequently the finite element model will be verified and calibrated by experimental studies. The next step is the integration of the calibrated model parameters from the piercing process in the extensive simulation model of self-piercing rivet process. The comparison between the measured and computed values, e.g. process parameters and the geometrical connection characteristics, shows the reached quality of the process model. The presented method provides an experimental reliable characterization of the damage of the composite material and an evaluation of the connection performances, regarding the anisotropic property of CFRP.

PurposeFailure of the materials occurs once the stress intensity factor (SIF) overtakes the material fracture toughness. At this level, the crack will grow rapidly resulting in unstable crack growth until a complete fracture happens. The SIF calculation of the materials can be conducted by experimental, theoretical and numerical techniques. Prediction of SIF is crucial to ensure safety life from the material failure. The aim of the simulation study is to evaluate the accuracy of SIF prediction using finite element analysis.Design/methodology/approachThe bootstrap resampling method is employed in S-version finite element model (S-FEM) to generate the random variables in this simulation analysis. The SIF analysis studies are promoted by bootstrap S-version Finite Element Model (BootstrapS-FEM). Virtual crack closure-integral method (VCCM) is an important concept to compute the energy release rate and SIF. The semielliptical crack shape is applied with different crack shape aspect ratio in this simulation analysis. The BootstrapS-FEM produces the prediction of SIFs for tension model.FindingsThe mean of BootstrapS-FEM is calculated from 100 samples by the resampling method. The bounds are computed based on the lower and upper bounds of the hundred samples of BootstrapS-FEM. The prediction of SIFs is validated with Newman–Raju solution and deterministic S-FEM within 95 percent confidence bounds. All possible values of SIF estimation by BootstrapS-FEM are plotted in a graph. The mean of the BootstrapS-FEM is referred to as point estimation. The Newman–Raju solution and deterministic S-FEM values are within the 95 percent confidence bounds. Thus, the BootstrapS-FEM is considered valid for the prediction with less than 6 percent of percentage error.Originality/valueThe bootstrap resampling method is employed in S-FEM to generate the random variables in this simulation analysis.

In this paper，soil parameters and the collected data were tested and processed, and the changing trends of force with drilling depth were obtained and the maximum force applying to the working components was picked up. Compared with the smooth working component, the force applying to the unsmooth working components is smaller. Some parameters needed in Drucker-Prager soil model were measured and modified according to the basic tests. The simulation model was built in the finite element software -ANSYS. The simulation result is consistent with the actual testing result, which confirms the finite element model is correct .

The Finite Element Model

Although a large number of crash tests have been performed between passenger cars and rigid fixed traffic signs, the number of real tests focusing on crashworthiness of portable roll-up signs is still limited. Because a standard, portable roll-up sign contains at least three kinds of dissimilar materials, such as steel for the base, fiberglass for the batten, vinyl for the sign, and because the sign’s configuration is more complicated than a rigid fixed sign, it is important to simulate the behavior of portable roll-up signs in collision. In this paper, a fine-mesh finite element model precisely representing the portable roll-up sign was created and used together with a car model to simulate the process of impact with 0 and 90 degree orientation. The simulation was performed using LS-DYNA software. Techniques for creating the finite element model were discussed. Afterwards this finite element model, being validated and verified through real tests, can be used for parametric and/or robust design.

A finite element model is proposed for numerical analysis of mechanical properties of precast segmental concrete test beam with external tendons. The 3D finite element model of test beam is established by SOLID65 element in ANSYS software, while the dry joint between segments is simulated by contact element, and the attachment between concrete beam and external prestressed tendons is achieved by node coupling method. Numerical simulation analysis reveals structural behavior, stress variations and crack opening cases of joints of the test beam by considering the concrete material and geometric nonlinearity. Influencing factors of the bending mechanical properties of the test beam are researched with different tendon types, secondary effect of external tendons and external tendon slip at deviation. Results of the numerical analysis reveal that the segmental joints are in the compressive state below the 300kN.Crack opening is the key factor of the mechanical properties of the test beam above the 300kN.The results can be used for structural design of precast segmental bridge.
