The Impact

Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) is a technology used for fast consolidation of metallic, ceramic, and composite powders. The upscaling of this technology requires a reduction in energy consumption and homogenization of temperature in compacts. The application of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Carbon (CFRC) insulating plates between the sintering setup and the electrodes is frequently considered as a measure to attain these goals. However, the efficiency of such a practice remains largely unexplored so far. In the present paper, the impact of CFRC plates on required power, total sintering energy, and temperature distribution was investigated by experiments and by Finite Element Modeling (FEM). The study was performed at a temperature of 1000 °C with a graphite dummy mimicking an SPS setup. A rather moderate influence of CFRC plates on power and energy demand was found. Furthermore, the cooling stage becomes considerably longer. However, the application of CFRC plates leads to a significant reduction in the axial temperature gradient. The comparative analysis of experimental and modeling results showed the good capability of the FEM method for prediction of temperature distribution and required electric current. However, a discrepancy between measured and calculated voltage and power was found. This issue must be further investigated, considering the influence of AC harmonics in the DC field.

Abstract The stability check of masonry structures is a debated problem in Italy that poses serious problems for its extensive use. Indeed, the danger of out of plane collapse of masonry walls, which is one of the more challenging to evaluate, is traditionally addressed not using finite element models (FEM). The power of FEM is not properly used and some simplified method are preferred. In this paper the use of the thrust surface is suggested. This concept allows to to evaluate the eccentricity of the membrane stresses using the FEM method. For this purpose a sophisticated, layered, finite element with a no-tension material is used. To model a no-tension material we used the smeared crack method as it is not mesh-dependent and it is well known since the early ’80 in an ASCE Report [1]. The described element has been implemented by the author in the program Nòlian by Softing.

In this paper, the iBone (Imitation Bone) model which is coupled with Turing reaction-diffusion system and FEM, is used. The numerical simulation of bone forming process by considering the osteoclasts and osteoblasts process are conducted. The bone mass is increased with increase of the initial load value, then fibula and femur bones are obtained respectively by keeping the required bone forming value. The new S shape wave of metal welded bellow of mechanical seal are designed based on the the optimization results through this method. The S shape and V shape both were analyzed with FEM method. The same boundary conditions were given for two types of wave. The results are shown that the stresses mainly concentrated on the welded area. It is interesting that the value of the stresses of the two types of wave basically same. However, compressibility of the two types of wave is very different at the same computation stage. The compressibility of S shape wave was higher than V shape.

This paper provide two methods to analyze the cogging torque of PM motor with radial magnetic field and parallel magnetic field, FEM method and Analytic method. The FEM model and Analytic model of PM motor with radial magnetic field and parallel magnetic field are founded. We analyze the model in both methods. From the result of analysis. The air-gap magnetic density of PM motor can be analyzed. We can find the cogging torque of radial magnetic field PM motor is much heavily than the cogging torque of parallel magnetic field PM motor. The result of Analytic method is close to the result of FEM method. The Analytic method is useful in analyze the cogging torque of PM motor.

Reliability of IGBT power module is one of the biggest concerns regarding wind power system, which generates the non-uniform distribution of temperature and thermal stress. The effects of non-uniform distribution will cause failure of IGBT module. Therefore, analysis of thermal mechanical stress distribution is crucially important for investigation of IGBT failure mechanism. This paper uses FEM method to establish an electrical-thermal mechanical coupling model of IGBT power module. Firstly, thermal stress distribution of solder layer is studied under power cycling. Then, the effects of initial failure of solder layer on the characteristic of IGBT module is investigated. Experimental results indicate that the strain energy density and inelastic strain are higher which will reduce reliability and lifetime of power modules.

The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior in the hot working of TB8 titanium alloy was studied by using the experiment and finite element simulation (FEM) method. The results showed that the DRX behavior of TB8 titanium alloys was drastically affected by the hot processing parameters. The rising deformation temperature and reducing strain rate led to an augmentation in the grain size (dDRX) and volume fraction (XDRX) of DRX grains. In view of the true stress–strain curves gained from the experiment, the dDRX and XDRX models of DRX grains were constructed. Based on the developed models for DRX of TB8 titanium alloy, the isothermal forging process of the cylindrical samples was simulated by the DEFORM-3D software. The distributions of the effective strain and XDRX for DRX were analyzed. A comparison of the dDRX and XDRX of DRX grains in the central regions of the samples between the experimental and FEM results was performed. A good correlation between the experimental and simulation results was obtained, indicating that the established FEM model presented good prediction capabilities.
