Three Dimensional Finite Element

Combined strip and rosette gage measurements and results from three-dimensional, finite element calculations are in excellent agreement with frozen stress photoelastic results for an efficient shape of cast-steel node under axial, brace loading. Three different meshes showed that two layers of elements through the thickness are needed.

In this paper, an original method for construction of a cracked beam finite element is presented. The additional flexibility due to the cracks is identified from three-dimensional finite element calculations taking into account the unilateral contact conditions between the cracks lips. Based on this flexibility which is distributed over the entire length of the element, a new cracked finite element stiffness matrix is deduced. Considerable gain in computing efforts is reached compared to the nodal representation of the cracked section when dealing with the numerical integration of differential equations in structural dynamics.

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.
