AbstractDesigning components is a complex task, which depends on the component function, the raw material, and the production technology. In the case of rotating parts with higher RPM, the creep and orientation are essential material properties. The PLA components made with the material extrusion process are more resistant than VeroWhite (material jetting) and behave similarly to weakly cross-linked elastomers. Also, based on the tensile tests, Young’s modulus shows minimal anisotropy. Multilinear isotropic hardening and modified time hardening models are used to create the finite element model. Based on the measurements, the finite element method simulation was identified. The deformation in the compressor wheel during rotation became definable. It was concluded that the strain of the compressor wheel manufactured with material extrusion technology is not significant.

In this article, an inhomogeneous cell-based smoothed finite element method (ICS-FEM) was proposed to overcome the over-stiffness of finite element method in calculating transient responses of functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic structures. The ICS-FEM equations were derived by introducing gradient smoothing technique into the standard finite element model; a close-to-exact system stiffness was also obtained. In addition, ICS-FEM could be carried out with user-defined sub-routines in the business software now available conveniently. In ICS-FEM, the parameters at Gaussian integration point were adopted directly in the creation of shape functions; the computation process is simplified, for the mapping procedure in standard finite element method is not required; this also gives permission to utilize poor quality elements and few mesh distortions during large deformation. Combining with the improved Newmark scheme, several numerical examples were used to prove the accuracy, convergence, and efficiency of ICS-FEM. Results showed that ICS-FEM could provide solutions with higher accuracy and reliability than finite element method in analyzing models with Rayleigh damping. Such method is also applied to complex structures such as typical micro-electro-mechanical system–based functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic energy harvester. Hence, ICS-FEM can be a powerful tool for transient problems of functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic models with damping which is of great value in designing intelligence structures.

Element Method

Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) has become popular for metal sheet forming technology in industry in many advanced countries. In the recent decade, there were lots of related studies that have concentrated on this new technology by Finite Element Method as well as by empirical practice. There have had very rare studies by pure analytical theory and almost all these researches were based on the formula of ISEKI. However, we consider that this formula does not reflect yet the mechanics of destruction of the sheet work piece as well as the behavior of the sheet in reality. The main aim of this paper is to examine ISEKI’s formula and to suggest a new analytical computation of three elements of stresses at any random point on the sheet work piece. The suggested formula is carefully verified by the results of Finite Element Method simulation.

An elasto- plastic analysis for general three dimes10nal problems using a finite element model is presented. The analysis is based on Hill's yield criterion which included anisotropic materials displaying kinematic - isotropic hardening. The validity and practical applicability of the algorithm are illustrated by a number of numerical examples, calculated by a computer program written in fortran.

The natural frequencies of circular saws limit the operating speeds of the saws. Current industry methods of increasing natural frequency include pretensioning, where plastic deformation is induced into the saw. To better model the saw, the finite element model is compared to current software for steel saws; C-SAW, a software program that calculates frequencies for stiffened circular saws. Using C-SAW and the finite element method the results are compared and the finite element method is validated for steel saws.

Since the vehicle accident is one of the major causes of dead and injury in Thailand, especially the large passenger vehicle. The seat anchorage was often damaged and lead to high number and critical of patient. To improve the safety of large passenger vehicle, seat anchorage should be investigated. The aim of this research was to analyze strength of seat anchorages for the bus according to European standard ECE Regulation 80 using finite element method and DOE(Design of Experimental) approach. In this study, the boundary conditions on finite element model of seat structure were defined according to the regulation. It is expected that the simulation techniques could be advantaged for seat anchorage analysis. This result will be used for further improvement of the bus seat anchorage design for safety and cost reduction in design processes.
