In this study, the effect of underfill on the level of stress concentrations is investigated and possible failure sites are identified by using a global/local finite element approach. The global elements capture the exact singular behavior of the stresses near the geometric and material discontinuities. Application of the strain energy density criterion indicates the possible failure sites and how they shift due to the presence of underfill.

Undetected cracking of rotating shafts can lead to catastrophic failure of turbomachinery. This paper investigated the dynamic response of rotor-bearing systems containing transverse cracks with a finite element approach. The breathing effect of cracks was analyzed based on the whirling conditions of the rotor, and different crack models were posed for different rotating speeds. The strain energy released due to the cracks was calculated. Then, the finite element for the shaft portion containing cracks was formulated and incorporated into the system matrices of the rotor-bearing system.

Understanding of the wear behaviors between mechanical components is a significant task in engineering design. Finite element (FE) simulation may offer valuable wear information. However, longer computational time, poor data precision, and possible divergence of results are unavoidable in repetitive procedures, especially for large FE structures. To address these issues, the current method proposes a hypothesis that the strain energy is completely transferred through the contact regions of components; further that only variables on the contact surface are involved in the solution procedure. Our qualitative comparison demonstrates that the formulations in the current study are valid, offering significant implications for further application.

Geometrical and material discontinuities in constructions lead to singular stress concentrations and consequently to a crack initiation. The model of a bi-material wedge makes it possible to analyse such construction points to assess their stability. The presented approach is based on the knowledge of the strain energy density factor distribution in the concentrator vicinity.

Abstract The sound radiating from rolling tires is the most important source of traffic noise in urban regions. In this contribution a detailed finite element approach for the dynamics of tire/road systems is presented with emphasis on rolling noise prediction. The analysis is split into sequential steps, namely, the nonlinear analysis of the stationary rolling problem within an arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian framework, and a subsequent analysis of the transient dynamic response due to the excitation caused by road surface roughness. Here, a modal superposition approach is employed using complex eigenvalue analysis. Finally, the sound radiation analysis of the rolling tire/road system is performed.
