Finite element (FE) models have become an effective tool in studying soft tissue behavior in the knee joint, including meniscal translation and deformation, as well as articular cartilage contact [1–2]. These models are also useful in osteoarthritis research and implant design [3–4]. Our group has previously used a kinematic-driven FE analysis to study the effect of weightbearing on the load distribution of tibio-menisco-femoral contact using MR imaging [5].

Threaded pipe connections are used to connect well casing, well tubing, drill pipes and risers.For many of these applications fatigue resistance plays an important role. In this study the fatigueproperties of threaded connections are studied using a combination of finite element modelling andexperimental testing. Using 2D axisymmetric FE analysis several connections are compared. It is shownthat the load distribution over the engaged threads is an important feature. Experimental tests are carriedout on three setups. A small scale four-point bending setup is used to develop S-N curves. An S-N curve fora standard API Line Pipe connection is compared to an S-N curve for a connection that showed animproved load distribution over the engaged threads in the FE analysis. On a medium scale four-pointbending setup, strains together with crack opening are measured. The strain measurements are comparedwith the strains obtained by the numerical model. Finally a full scale resonant bending fatigue setup ispresented, which will be used in future testing of pipe connections ranging from 168 mm (6”) to 508 mm(20”) in diameter.

The Finite Element Analysis

The jumping characteristics at the driven pulley of L type synchronous belt drives are experimentally and analytically discussed. The number of the driving and the driven pulley teeth is the same and the wrapping angle of the belt on both pulleys is π radian. In this paper, the meshing state of belts on both of the driving and driven pulleys just before jumping is analyzed using the Finite Element analysis. Standardized L type synchronous belts and pulleys are used for analysis and experiments of the meshing states between belt and pulley, load distribution stress analysis and jumping torque. A 337L075 trapezoidal tooth profile synchronous belt and a 36L075 synchronous pulley are used in the analysis and the experiments. The wrapping angle of belt on both the driving and the driven pulley is equal to π radian. “ABAQUS/Standard” is used for the simulation and analysis of the belt. The simulation of the FE analysis of the wrapping angle of the belt on the driven pulley is almost the same with the experimental result. FE analysis of the load distribution just before jumping on the driven pulley agrees well with the experimental results.

Abstract The objective of this study was to quantify pavement damage due to a conventional (385/65R22.5) and a new generation of wide-base (445/50R22.5) tires using three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analysis. The investigated new generation of wide-base tires has wider treads and greater load-carrying capacity than the conventional wide-base tire. In addition, the contact patch is less sensitive to loading and is especially designed to operate at 690kPa inflation pressure at 121km/hr speed for full load of 151kN tandem axle. The developed FE models simulated the tread sizes and applicable contact pressure for each tread and utilized laboratory-measured pavement material properties. In addition, the models were calibrated and properly validated using field-measured stresses and strains. Comparison was established between the two wide-base tire types and the dual-tire assembly. Results indicated that the 445/50R22.5 wide-base tire would cause more fatigue damage, approximately the same rutting damage and less surface-initiated top-down cracking than the conventional dual-tire assembly. On the other hand, the conventional 385/65R22.5 wide-base tire, which was introduced more than two decades ago, caused the most damage.

ABSTRACT The potential of a race tire strongly depends on its thermal condition, the load distribution in its contact patch, and the variation of wheel load. The approach described in this paper uses a modular structure consisting of elementary blocks for thermodynamics, transient excitation, and load distribution in the contact patch. The model provides conclusive tire characteristics by adopting the fundamental parameters of a simple mathematical force description. This then allows an isolated parameterization and examination of each block in order to subsequently analyze particular influences on the full model. For the characterization of the load distribution in the contact patch depending on inflation pressure, camber, and the present force state, a mathematical description of measured pressure distribution is used. This affects the tire's grip as well as the heat input to its surface and its casing. In order to determine the thermal condition, one-dimensional partial differential equations at discrete rings over the tire width solve the balance of energy. The resulting surface and rubber temperatures are used to determine the friction coefficient and stiffness of the rubber. The tire's transient behavior is modeled by a state selective filtering, which distinguishes between the dynamics of wheel load and slip. Simulation results for the range of occurring states at dry conditions show a sufficient correlation between the tire model's output and measured tire forces while requiring only a simplified and descriptive set of parameters.

Mine Hoist

Operation of inhaul rubber steel cables in vertical mine hoisting is discussed. The research in the field of mine hoisting is reviewed, and the further R&D directions are identified. Some studies concern life extension of hoisting ropes. One of the promising trends seems to be application of belt pullers as inhaul cables, which can essentially enhance mine hoist efficiency. In the meanwhile, capabilities of rubber steel cables suffer from deficient attention. The performance capabilities of rubber steel cables of top manufacturers (Promkanat and SAG) are compared, and application ranges in vertical mine hoisting are determined for such cables. It is found that the Polish manufacturer’s rubber steel cables offer a wider range of application. The analysis shows that rubber steel cables can be used as inhaul cables of vertical mine hoisters. Rubber steel cables possess suitable characteristics and are capable to elevate considerable loads to various hoisting heights. In particular, the existing rubber steel cables ensure carrying capacity of hoists up to 20-25 t at the hoisting heights to 400-500 m and sometimes can elevate skips with tonnage of 10 t to a height up to 1000 m and more. The further feasibility study of operation of inhaul steel rubber cables in hoisting units should address motion stability of a puller on a driving drum, load distribution in ropes of base of rubber steel cables, validation of hoister design, adjustability of rubber steel cable length during its operation, etc.
