Post-buckling analysis of an axially functionally graded (AFG) cantilever beam subjected to an axial nonfollower compression load is studied in this paper by using the total Lagrangian finite element model of three-dimensional continuum approximations. Material properties of the beam change in the axial direction according to a power-law function. In this study, finite element model of the beam is constructed by using total Lagrangian finite element model of three-dimensional continuum for an eight-node quadratic element. It is known that post-buckling problems are geometrically nonlinear problems. The considered highly nonlinear problem is solved by using incremental displacement-based finite element method in conjunction with Newton–Raphson iteration method. There is no restriction on the magnitudes of deflections and rotations in contradistinction to von-Karman strain displacement relations. The obtained results are compared with the published results. In this study, the effects of the material distribution on the post-buckling response of the AFG beam are investigated in detail. The differences between of material distributions are investigated in the post-buckling analysis. Numerical results show that the above-mentioned effects play a very important role on the post-buckling responses of the beam, and it is believed that new results are presented for post-buckling of AFG beams which are of interest to the scientific and engineering community in the area of FGM structures.

Abstract A finite element model was developed to simulate the tire-rim interface. Elastomers were modeled by nonlinear incompressible elements, whereas plies were simulated by cord-rubber composite elements. Gap elements were used to simulate the opening between tire and rim at zero inflation pressure. This opening closed when the inflation pressure was increased gradually. The predicted distribution of contact pressure at the tire-rim interface agreed very well with the available experimental measurements. Several variations of the tire-rim interference fit were analyzed.

Abstract A three-dimensional (3D) beam finite element model was developed to investigate the torsional stiffness of a twisted steel-reinforced cord-rubber belt structure. The present 3D beam element takes into account the coupled extension, bending, and twisting deformations characteristic of the complex behavior of cord-rubber composite structures. The extension-twisting coupling due to the twisted nature of the cords was also considered in the finite element model. The results of torsional stiffness obtained from the finite element analysis for twisted cords and the two-ply steel cord-rubber belt structure are compared to the experimental data and other alternate solutions available in the literature. The effects of cord orientation, anisotropy, and rubber core surrounding the twisted cords on the torsional stiffness properties are presented and discussed.
