The Cost

The need for the rehabilitation of bridges and structures is becoming more apparent as the number of deficient civil structure grows and the cost of replacement is becoming prohibitive. These leads to the search of alternative methods, such as rehabilitation, to put the deteriorated structures back to normal operation with the least possible cost. One such method is the use of composite plates adhesively bonded to concrete as reinforcement and to prevent the propagation of crack within the concrete structure. In this study the load transfer and the resulting stress distribution in the composite-concrete adhesion system is investigated using the finite element method. The effects of the different bond parameters are studied using the finite element. In addition, results of the finite element analysis are proved to be in agreement with the analytical solution of shear stress distribution in the adhesion layer that was developed in previous studies by the authors.

The finite element analysis of large air cooling tower was carried out using ABAQUS. On the basis of strength above,8 types of the axial force are analyzed and summarized, find valuable rules, and put forward the further optimization design. So that it can satisfy the strength and stability of air cooling tower, the structure is more reasonable, reduce weight, reduce the cost.

Abstract Implant and a tooth supported dentures are avoided by dentists because of uneven distribution of occlusal loads between a stiffer implant and a more pliable tooth. The hypothesis was that a 3-point all-ceramic bridge supported on a natural second premolar tooth and a two-pieces typical implant bears safely mastication loads. The finite element analysis showed that the implant splinted by all-ceramic zirconium bridge with the second premolar was safe under lateral mastication load, but there was found an overload at wide zone of bone tissue around the implant under the load of 800 N. The patients can safely masticate, but comminution of hard food should be avoided and they should be instructed that after such an indiscretion they need to contact a dental professional, because, in spite of integrity of the prosthesis, the bone tissue around the implant may fail and there is a hazard of intrusion of the tooth.

The Finite Element Analysis

Strain clamp is an important connection device in guy tower. If the quality of the compression splicing position is unsatisfied, strain clamp tends to be damaged which may lead to the final collapse of a guy tower as well as huge economic lost. In this paper, stress distribution on the compressible tube and guy cable is analyzed by FEM, and a large equivalent stress of guy cable is applied to the compression splicing position. During this process, a finite element model of strain clamp is established for guy cables at compression splicing position, problems of elastic-plastic and contracting are studied and the whole compressing process of compressible position is simulated. The guy cable cracks easily at the position of compressible tube’s port, the inner part of the compressible tube has a larger equivalent stress than outside.

The troweling of wall space is an essential decorative process and the development of wall-troweling robots, which are expected to release labors from the burdensome pargeting tasks, is growing to be a promising sector in todays architectural industry. In this paper, a static analysis is conducted for the key components of troweling disk and vertical guiderail, based on the proposed virtual prototype of wall-troweling robots. The stress distribution across these components provides a sound basis for the structural design. With the finite element analysis module of SolidWorks package, the paper investigates the modal characteristics of the key components operating under practical conditions. The research effort in this paper is contributive to the design and manufacturing of wall-troweling robots.

The Finite Element Analysis

The cold expanding diameter process was simulated by the software of DEFORM. The finite element model of tube and dies were built. The object position definition, the inter object setting, movement definition and simulation step were correctly set. The deformation, total velocity distribution and equivalent stress distribution were predicted. The numerical simulation results showed that the finite element analysis could exactly describe the plastic deformation and stress distribution during the forming process.

AbstractIn this study, a novel procedure has been developed for predicting the notched strengths of composite plates each with a center hole. In this approach, the stress distribution of a composite plate with a center hole is first obtained by a finite element analysis, in which the experimental notched strength is applied at the boundary of the finite element model. Secondly, the point stress criterion (PSC) is used to find the characteristic length for each plate with different size of hole by an interpolation of the finite element analysis results. The characteristic length is then expressed as an empirical function of the hole size as well as the width of the plate. Finally, the notched strengths of composite plates are predicted based on the empirical function and the finite element analysis results incorporated with the principle of superposition in elasticity. For validation, three different cases from the literatures are adopted for comparison. It is shown that the predicted notched strengths by this new methodology agree well with both the experimental results and the results from analytical solutions based PSC.
