Abstract The paper describes the intention of the authors to determine whether it is possible to predict relative belt edge endurance for radial passenger car tires using the finite element method. Three groups of tires with different belt edge configurations were tested on a fleet test in an attempt to validate predictions from the finite element results. A two-dimensional, axisymmetric finite element analysis was first used to determine if the results from such an analysis, with emphasis on the shear deformations between the belts, could be used to predict a relative ranking for belt edge endurance. It is shown that such an analysis can lead to erroneous conclusions. A three-dimensional analysis in which tires are modeled under free rotation and static vertical loading was performed next. This approach resulted in an improvement in the quality of the correlations. The differences in the predicted values of various stress analysis parameters for the three belt edge configurations are studied and their implication on predicting belt edge endurance is discussed.

Using dynamic elastic-plastic finite element method, on the base of works together and interaction between loess and flexible retaining wall, 3-D nonlinear FEM (ADINA) is used to analyze and discussed the dynamic response of slope protected by soil nailing retaining wall under the EL-Centro and man-made Lanzhou accelerogram. A model that is capable of simulating the nonlinear static and dynamic elastic-plastic behavior of soil is used to model the soil, and a bilinear elastic-plastic model that has hardening behavior is used to model the soil nailing. Friction-element is employed to describe the soil-structure interaction behavior.The results show that the method is safe and credible. The results of the FEM dynamic analysis can be a useful reference for engineers of the design and construction of the soil nailed wall.

In this article, finite element method is used to analyze the properties of the reactor core under seismic load, and redesign the center assemblies to resist deformation and impact force. The result shows that the maximum force on the lug boss is decreased while the springs are applied.
