Abstract The natural frequencies and dynamic response of a trochoidal cylindrical shell in a trochoidal-type machine are studied. Both analytical method and finite element method (FEM) solutions are obtained. The mode shapes obtained by the two approaches match quite well. The model established can be applied to control the running clearance between rotor and chamber in this type of machine, which is critical to the performance of the machine.

The aim of research is to compare two calculation methods using the example of solving the axisymmetric thermoelasticity problem. Methods. The calculation of a thick-walled cylindrical shell on the temperature effect was carried out by the numerical-analytical method and the finite element method, implemented in the LIRA-CAD software package. The shell consists of three layers: two layers of heat-resistant concrete and an outer steel layer. In the calculation, a piecewise linear inhomogeneity of the shell due to its three-layer structure and continuous inhomogeneity caused by the influence of a stationary temperature field is taken into account. The numerical-analytical method of calculation involves the derivation of a resolving differential equation, which is solved by the sweep method, it is possible to take into account the nonlinear nature of the deformation of the material using the method of successive approximations. To solve this problem by the finite element method, a similar computational model of the shell was constructed in the LIRA-CAD software package. The solution of the problem of thermoelasticity for an infinite cylinder (under conditions of a plane deformed state) and for a cylinder of finite length with free ends is given. Results . Comparison of the calculation results is carried out according to the obtained values of ring stresses σθ.

Flapwise flexural vibration of rotating beams has been extensively studied since the 1970s. Existing methods for solving the aforementioned vibration problem range from the conventional finite element method to variable-order finite element method, Frobenius method, differential transformation method and dynamic stiffness method (DSM). Although various approximation methods are available, most of these methods are based on perturbation or discretization of the governing equation, often leading to tedious calculations. This paper re-examines flapwise flexural vibration of rotating beams using the method of variational iteration, which is relatively new and capable of providing accurate solutions for eigenvalue problems. The extracted natural frequencies and mode shapes for sample rotating beams with various rotational speeds and hub radii are compared with existing results that were published in the open literature.

Theoretical natural frequencies and mode shapes for the tracheo-bronchia of the human respiratory system are determined using the finite element method. Radial modes, which are anticipated to be used for contraction relaxation, are identified. It is anticipated that these values will give the initiation for future development of non-traditional techniques of relieving respiratory system constrictions.

The design of structures and machineries in present days are based on optimizing of multi-objectives such as maximum strength, maximum life, minimum weight and minimum cost. Due to this flexiblity they allow having a very high level of stresses. This leads to development of cracks in their elements. Due to long-term service many engineering structures may have structural defects such as cracks. So it is very much essential to know the property of structures and response of such structures in various cases. In this article the natural frequencies and mode shapes of an uncracked and cracked cantilever Timoshenko beam is studied by using finite element method (FEM) and MATLAB programme. The effect of crack on the natural frequencies of the uncracked and cracked Timoshenko beam is studied.

The finite element method is a numerical method that is used to find solution of mathematical and engineering problems. It basically deals with partial differential equations. It is very complex for civil engineers to study various structures by using analytical method,so they prefer finite element methods over the analytical methods. As it is an approximate solution, therefore several limitationsare associated in the applicationsin civil engineering due to misinterpretationof analyst. Hence, the main aim of the paper is to study the finite element method in details along with the benefits and limitations of using this method in analysis of building components like beams, frames, trusses, slabs etc.

Vibration of structures due to external sound is one of the main causes of interior noise in cavities like automobile, aircraft, and rotorcraft, which disturb the comfort of passengers. Accurate modelling of such phenomena is required in eigenfrequency analysis and in designing an active noise control system to reduce the interior noise. In this paper, the effect of periodic noise travelling into a rectangular enclosure is investigated with finite element method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The periodic acoustic wave is generated by a point source outside the enclosure and propagated through the enclosure wall and excites an aluminium flexible panel clamped onto the enclosure. The behaviour of the transmission of sound into the cavity is investigated by computing the modal characteristics and the natural frequencies of the cavity. The simulation results are compared with previous analytical and experimental works for validation and an acceptable match between them were obtained.
