The existence of pores is a very common feature of nature and of human life, but the existence of pores will alter the mechanical properties of the material. Therefore, it is very important to study the impact of different influencing factors on the mechanical properties of porous materials and to use the law of change in mechanical properties of porous materials for our daily lives. The SBFEM (scaled boundary finite element method) method is used in this paper to calculate a large number of random models of porous materials derived from Matlab code. Multiple influencing factors can be present in these random models. Based on the Monte Carlo simulation, after a large number of model calculations were carried out, the results of the calculations were analyzed statistically in order to determine the variation law of the mechanical properties of porous materials. Moreover, this paper gives fitting formulas for the mechanical properties of different materials. This is very useful for researchers estimating the mechanical properties of porous materials in advance.

Natural Fibre composites are being widely used as a replacement to non-bio-degradable polymer composites. The unavailability of proper processes to treat the natural fibres and the errors in fabrication result in less accurate mechanical properties. The accuracy that is obtained by machine-based processes is not possible in Hand layup method, which is employed in fabrication of natural fibre composites. Finite Element method packages which are specially intended in modelling composite structures give more accurate result of properties than experimental setup, by avoiding fabrication errors. This paper evaluates Impact energy and then the tensile strength, flexural strength of a sugarcane fibre GFRP reinforced polymer matrix both by conventional Hand Layup method and also by Finite Element method.

The article is devoted to development of methods for geofiltration calculations with taking into account peculiarities of changes of the rock physical and mechanical properties at water saturation. Methods: mathematical modeling of geomechanical and filtration processes with the help of finite element method and laboratory and underground studies. A mathematical model was formulated for solving a problem of elasticity theory by the finite element method, which took into account peculiarities of water-saturated rocks. Pattern of stress-strain state changing in the fractured water-saturated rocks under the action of critical loads, which occurred around the preparatory roadways during their operation, were established. In order to solve the filtration problems, a bank of collected initial data on physical and mechanical properties of water-saturated rocks was processed with the help of variation coefficients, which were taken into account by the method, which assumed calculation of the model loading with critical parameters.

The corrugated waist rail has been successfully rolled in the Mill Research Institute of Yanshan University. It is necessary to conduct a comparative study on the mechanical properties of this special kind of rail with that of the ordinary rail. ANSYS/LS-DYNA, the finite element code, is used to simulate the contact behavior of wheel and rail. The study aims to investigate the influences of axle and lateral load on the stresses and displacement of the rail. It draws a conclusion that the mechanical properties of the corrugated waist rail is superior to that of the ordinary rail. It also provides a method and useful data for the further research on fatigue and wear of corrugated waist rail.
