In high-speed gear drive and power transmission, system impact failure mode always occurs due to the sudden impact and shock loading during the system in running. Therefore, study on the amount of impact energy that can be absorbed by a gear is vital. Impact test equipment has been designed and modelled for the purpose to study the impact energy on gear tooth. This paper mainly focused on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of impact energy that occurred during simulation involving the impact test equipment modelling. The simulation was conducted using Abaqus software on critical parts of the test equipment to simulate the impact event and generate impact data for analysis. The load cell in the model was assumed to be free fall at a certain height which gives impact load to the test gear. Three different type of material for the test gear were set up in this simulation. Results from the simulation show that each material possesses different impact energy characteristic. Impact energy values increased along with the height of load drop. AISI 1040 were found to be the toughest material at 3.0m drop that could withstand up to 44.87N.m of impact energy. These data will be used to validate data in physical experiments in further study.

This paper traverses failure phenomenon about the piston rod of rapping device. Through the ANSYS/ls-dyna software, the finite element analysis was carried out on the piston rod ,force of the impact on the piston rod was taken as the form of triangular pulse load, whose time was lasting 0.05s, and it can get the maximum load in 0.025s. Maximum stress occured at the fillet of the piston rod are obtained. Based on nonlinear finite element method for transient dynamic analysis of the piston rod , analysis results are consistent with the actual conditions, and demonstrates the feasibility of finite element analysis.

Abstract The multiaxial impact behavior of CYCOLAC GPM5500 (ABS glassy polymer) is obtained as a function of impact velocity and temperature from the standard impact test as specified by ASTM D3763. Finite element analysis (FEA) and ABAQUS/Explicit are used to model the impact behavior of the polymer. The generalized “DSGZ” constitutive model, previously developed by the authors and calibrated using low strain rate uniaxial mechanical test data, is extended to the high strain rate regime and used in the finite element analysis. Load-displacement curves from the finite element analysis are compared with the experimental data and agree well up to the maximum impact load (failure). Therefore, the proposed finite element analysis model can be used to predict the multiaxial impact behaviors of polymers at different temperatures and impact velocities.

Response of brittle plate-like structures to impact loads (suddenly applied loads) has been the subject of many research studies. Specifically, glass used in various household, consumer electronics applications can be subjected to different kinds of impact loads. An ion-exchanged alumino-silicate glass developed by Corning Incorporated, also called Corning® Gorilla® Glass is used as cover glass for flat-panel televisions. One of the reliability tests that may be required for this application is that a steel ball of certain diameter is dropped from certain height at different locations on the glass panel mounted onto a frame. The requirement is that the glass should survive 2 J of impact energy at the center of the glass and 0.5 J of impact energy at the edges. These reliability requirements could change depending on the application and the customer. In this study, finite element analysis is carried out to understand the impact response of such glass panels. Experiments are conducted using strain gauges to measure the panel response at the center of glass with impacts up to 3.3 J. Finite element analysis results are then validated by comparing the predicted strain response with those of measurements.

The finite element analysis method of falling-object protective structure (FOPS) for the loader is presented in this paper. Taking FOPS for CL958 type loader as an example, this paper builds the analysis model in ANSYS, obtains the displacement of the load center and the maximum deformation of FOPS caused by the impact load and proves the safety by the drop test. It provides the theoretical basis and design principle for the optimization design and reliability design of FOPS for the loader.

Cable pendulum bars need to withstand not only the gravity of ripe plug and cable but also the impact load of the shedding of ripe plug. In this paper, the cable pendulum bar was modeled and analyzed using finite element analysis by UG NX4, and stiffness strength check was carried out on cable pendulum bar. On this basis, the impact load were calculated and analyzed. The shearing stress of forced off cylinder’s block, strength of steel wire rope and the force of cable pendulum bar’s locking mechanism were checked with the shock loads, and the basic theory to design and development cable pendulum bar were provided.

For the design and application of ultra-high speed aerostatic spindle, it is often difficult to determine the load capacity of bearing gas film because of nonlinear problem, especially when the gas film is very thin. As ultra-high speed aerostatic spindle is working, rotational velocity of spindle ranges up to 300,000 rpm, while Reynolds number of air flow also increases in aerostatic bearing, so we need to consider the impact of gas inertia on the load capacity. In order to improve design accuracy of ultra-high speed aerostatic spindle, it is vitally necessary to consider hydrodynamic effect of aerostatic bearings. By using finite element analysis software ANSYS software as analysis platform, through finite element the analysis of the internal flow field of aerostatic thrust bearing, this paper obtains the relationship of rotation speed and load capacity of aerostatic thrust bearing.

This paper compares the ballistic impact damage behaviors between the three-dimensional angle-interlock woven fabric and its reinforced composite (three-dimensional angle interlock woven composite) under various ballistic strike velocities based on experimental and numerical finite element analysis. In experiments, the residual velocities of projectiles were recorded to compare their ballistic proof properties undergoing different impact loading conditions. Furthermore, the ultimate damage morphologies of both types of materials were also compared to deduce the specific ballistic impact performance and energy absorption mechanisms between the three-dimensional angle interlock woven fabric and three-dimensional angle interlock woven composite. It was found that the three-dimensional angle interlock woven composite has absorbed more energy than the three-dimensional angle interlock woven fabric under the “high” ballistic velocities (higher than 350 m/s). And it shows the opposite phenomena under the “low” ballistic velocities (lower than 350 m/s). In finite element analysis, the simplified finite element models were established for both materials to characterize the critical importance of resin matrix in transferring and dissipating the high velocity impact energy. Especially for three-dimensional angle interlock woven composite, the impact energy was transferred to the large area during a relatively short period of time, thereby resulting in an overall bearing capacity of the composite structure, therefore absorbed most of the impact energy, which was well applied to explain the experimental results.
