This paper describes in detail the deformation behavior of the rolls and strip predicted from the three-dimensional finite element analysis of skin-pass rolling. The predictions are made on the basis of the coupled analysis of elastic deformation of the rolls and elastic–plastic deformation of the strip. Predictions from the proposed finite element (FE) model are compared with experimental data from laboratory-scale cold rolling mills. Then, proposed are models for the prediction of the roll force profile and for the prediction of the residual stress profile. The prediction accuracy of the models is examined through comparison with the predictions from the FE model.

Corrugated tubes in a heat exchanger are analyzed by using the FEA methods. And the formula how to compute single wave’s rigidity is obtained. Besides, methods of analyzing the stability of corrugated tubes under internal compressive pressure and external pressure are proposed which include characteristic value analysis and non-linear stability analysis, thus providing theory basis for the stability research of heat exchangers.

This study presents a finite element analysis on the behavior of soil nail walls subjected to different freezing and thawing conditions. Thermo-mechanical coupled analysis has become increasingly important due to the increasing number of geotechnical structures built in cold regions. Soil nailing is a relatively new technique of reinforcing existing slopes or supporting new excavations. Its performance has been proven through decades of successful applications throughout the world. However, its applications in cold regions are still very limited due to sparse research available on its behavior in cold regions. In addition, soil may dramatically change its properties after experiencing freezing and thawing cycles. A two-dimensional finite element analysis using ABAQUS software is conducted to investigate the frost penetration depth in the soil and the resulting influence on the performance of the soil nail walls in Northern Ontario. The numerical model is verified against the field measurements obtained from a research program done in Brunswick, Maine, U.S. (Duchesne, 2003). The change of thermally induced stress along soil nails as well as the increase of displacements and earth pressure on the facing of the walls is investigated under freezing conditions. A parametric study is also conducted to probe the effect of thermal insulation systems on the wall facing and nails. This study provides valuable insight into the behavior of soil nailed structures in cold regions.

This study focuses on improving the power density of a spherical multi-degree-of-freedom (multi-DOF) actuator. A spherical multi-DOF actuator that can operate in three DOFs is designed. The actuator features a double air gap to reduce eddy current loss. However, a multi-DOF actuator driven by a single actuator exhibits low power density. Therefore, a Halbach magnet array is applied to improve the power density of a spherical multi-DOF actuator, and its output characteristics are compared with those of an existing spherical multi-DOF actuator via finite element analysis. Additionally, the output characteristics are analyzed based on changes in the coil pitch angle and magneto-motive force of the rotating winding. Furthermore, it is necessary for a spherical multi-DOF actuator to move to the command position. Hence, a stability analysis is performed to ensure that the spherical multi-DOF actuator is stably driven based on the command position.
