In this letter, a bearing consisting of a disk-shaped NdFeB permanent magnet levitated by a ferrite magnet with a diamagnetic stabilizer made of two bismuth blocks has been statically analyzed. The analysis, including levitation force and stiffness characteristics of this diamagnetic bearing, has been incorporated with the diamagnetic mirror image method based on the finite element and dipole approximation methods. Force equations of the levitated magnet are derived from the potential of the system in terms of magnetic, diamagnetic and gravitational interactions. The dipole approximation and finite element method were compared with each other. It is observed that while the dipole approximation (an analytical method) is successful in predicting the force and stiffness of the bearing, the finite element method, on the other hand, only estimates the levitation force. It is shown that the dipole approach has advantages over the finite element method for various perspectives such as calculation time and precision.

Analysis of Bolt Joint Using the Finite Element Method A numerical analysis of the initially clamped bolt joint subject to the working pressure is presented in the paper. Special, hexahedral 21- and 28-node isoparametric finite elements have been employed to model the contact zone. In this model, one takes into account loading due to the working pressure in the gap between the gasket and the flange arising as an effect of the progressing joint opening, what has not been considered in recent papers. Nonlinear stiffness characteristics of the bolt and the flange with the gasket are developed. Working pressure corresponding to the critical bolt force resulting in the joint leakage (complete opening between the gasket and the flange) is determined. FE computational results are compared with the available experimental results. The numerical results are presented using the authors' own graphical postprocessor.
