Oil Pump

A feasibility study was conducted to determine the use of polyphthalamide/glass-fiber and polyphthalamide/glass-fiber/polytetrafluoroethylene-based composites as substitutes for aluminum and steel, respectively, in the production of motorcycle oil pump parts (housing, shaft/inner gerotor and outer gerotor). New and used (80,000 km) oil pumps were subjected to performance tests, whose results indicated that the pressure and temperature of the used pump reached a maximum of 1.8 bar and 93℃, respectively. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the materials are stable at the maximum operating temperature, which is 20℃ lower than the minimum glass transition temperature obtained by dynamic mechanical analysis for both materials at the analyzed frequencies (defined after calculations based on rotations in neutral, medium and high gear). The pressure value was multiplied by a safety factor of at least 1.6 (i.e., 3 bar), which was used as input for a finite element analysis of the parts, as well as the elasticity modulus at glass transition temperatures obtained by dynamic mechanical analysis. The finite element analysis indicated that the von Mises stresses to which the composite parts were subjected are 7 to 50 times lower than those the materials can withstand. The results suggest that it is feasible to manufacture motorcycle oil pump parts with these composites.

Dip Angle

The mechanism withstands 220t high temperature molten steel. In case of damage, molten steel pours. There will be major security incidents. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate carrying capacity of the mechanism. However, the part of components of the mechanism is made up of a crisscross of steel plate. This is used to withstand the bending and stretching. If we rely on traditional mechanical analysis, a large number of simplifying must be adopted, and accuracy of the calculation can be reduced. Therefore, this paper uses the COSMOSWorks Plug-in of SolidWorks software to carry out finite element calculation of whole machine for the mechanism. It avoids these shortcomings mentioned above. And this makes bearing capacity calculation to be more close to the actual circumstances. And the results show that: (1) the maximum stress of parts in the mechanism is only 52.8Mpa and much less than permissible stresses of its materials. As a result, the mechanism has sufficient bearing capacity. (2) The maximum displacement of whole machine is 2.637 mm. And the displacement will cause dip angle when lifting molten steel and it is less than its allowable stiffness. Therefore, the deformation is to meet requirements for the mechanism. In conclusion, the finite element analysis of the whole machine avoids complex force analysis and simplification of structure. The calculation has high accuracy. It is one of effective methods in the design of intensity and stiffness of complex structures.

Loaded Crack

Several hypotheses and concepts exist for the prediction of crack deflection angles from the analysis of the undisturbed stress distribution at the crack front. In this paper, a finite element analysis of small penny shaped secondary cracks with deflection angles ψ0 = π/4 at a pure mode III loaded crack front is presented. The results are compared with the solutions of the well-known 3D fracture criteria. The fracture mechanical analysis is performed by the highly effective MVCCI-method.

Fine Grained

The method of severe plastic deformation is often used to produce bulk ultra-fine grained materials. Numerous methods exist, which are able to produce ultra fine grained materials. Investigated the mechanical schema of these procedures, we searched for such attributes, which characterize the mentioned techniques. By our previous researches can be established, that for these techniques shear deformation as well as the so-called non-monotonic deformation are characteristic. In this paper a degree of non-monotonity is presented, which is an appropriate measure to characterize the forming processes. Besides this the combined Euler – Lagrange method is showed, which is appropriate to obtain a continuous velocity field from finite element analysis. Eventually the mechanical analysis of the extrusion, conventional and asymmetric rolling is showed with respect to the non-monotonity.

Simulation Results

The aim of this study is to develop a finite element analysis technique to characterize the distributions of temperature and stress in the process of multilayer deposition of metallic powders by laser additive manufacturing (LAM). Simulation results indicate the residual normal stress in the laser moving direction is greater than that in other directions due to a larger temperature gradient, and it increases with number of deposited layers. Highly residual stresses are present in the LAM build and at the base nearby the interface between the build and base.

Element Method

This paper describes the development of a methodology for performing a mechanical analysis of hair cell ciliary bundles. The cilia were modeled as shear deformable beams, and interconnections were modeled as two-force members. These models were incorporated into software, which performs a finite element analysis of a user-defined bundle. The algorithm incorporates aspects of the bundle such as geometric realignment and buckling of compressed side links. A sample bundle is introduced and results of modeling it are presented.
