In this paper, deformation behavior of Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) during thermal indentation was demonstrated by the finite element method using ABAQUS S/W. Forming conditions to reduce the elastic recovery and pile-up were proposed. Thermal nanoindentation experiments were carried out at the temperature range of 110 ~ 150 ° C . The indenter was modeled as a rigid surface. The finite element analysis (FEA) approach is capable of reproducing the loading-unloading behavior for a thermal nanoindentation test and thus comparison between the experimental data and numerical results were demonstrated. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern.

The finite element method has been applied in the area of the cervical spine since the 1970's. In the present research work, the finite element method was employed to model, validate and analyze a complete model of the human cervical spine from C1 to T1, including interconnecting intervertebral discs, ligaments and joints. The developed model of the cervical spine was validated by the experimental results presented in the literature. As the values obtained from the finite element analysis were mainly in the range of motion observed in the experiment; it was concluded that the finite element results were consistent with the reported data in the literature. Next, the validated model of the cervical spine was examined under physiological loading modes to locate the areas bearing maximum stress in the cervical spine. Finally, to study the effect of variations in the material properties on the output of the finite element analysis, a material property sensitivity study was conducted to the C3-T1 model of cervical spine. Changes in the material properties of the soft tissues affected the external and internal responses of both the hard and soft tissue components, while changes in those of the hard tissues only affected the internal response of hard tissues.

The paper describes and compares selected failure and plasticity conditions of concrete. The CEB-FIB condition, the von Mises plasticity condition with modification for concrete and the Chen-Chen condition are studied. The conditions are compared in 2D and two of these conditions are also used for numerical analysis of a deep beam. The software BSA is chosen for the analysis in the paper. The software BSA is based on the finite element method.

The special type of C-hook is investigated in this paper. The C-hook is designed to carry a special load, where is not possible to use classical hooks or chain slings. The designed hook is consisted of two arms that ensure the stability of the load being carried. The finite element analysis is performed for the control of the stress and deformation state in the whole hook. The fatigue analysis is performed for the check of a lifetime of C-hook.

The papaer is to study telescopic boom material handler, carried out forces analysis on a typical three section telescopic boom, results indicated that the boom working in horizontal position is the most dangerous situation, Adopted the CAD software of SolidWorks to build the three dimensional models of telescopic boom, then used the FEA component of SolidWorks Simulation to carried out finite element analysis(FEA) respectively for three sections of boom, obtained FEA results. By the use of comparing the stress testing results with the finite element analysis results, certificated that the finite element analysis models are reasonable and the finite element method by Simulation is feasible and reliable. All of these works have very important reference value for designing and optimization of the telehandler in the future.

The finite element method was carried out three-Dimensions analysis of the solid shelves, gained the deformation characteristics and stress distributions of the solid shelves. Finite element analysis software ANSYS was used to analyze the solid shelves from the static. We have the results after correct loading and constraint and stress values comparison. A simulation example for three-dimensional shelves is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the finite element analysis method.

Within this article, there are presented a series of researches that were developed for the first time in Romania, in the field of customized medical implants made by using the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology. Finite Element Method (FEM) has been successfully used in order to analyze the fatigue and to determine the durability of a customized medical implant that has been selected for the made analysis. The material characteristics taken into consideration within the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) that has been performed were the ones of two types of dedicated metallic powders which are commercially available (TiAl6Nb7 and TiAl6V4 material) and suitable for the SLM 250 HL equipment from the SLM Solutions GmbH Company from Lubeck, Germany. The Finite Element Analysis made in the case of these two types of SLM titanium alloyed materials, proved that the modified characteristics, such as the yield strength and hardness of the material are significantly influencing the durability of the medical implants made by SLM technology.

Abstract The finite element method, which is a numerical discretization technique for obtaining approximate solutions to complex physical problems, is accepted in many industries as the primary tool for structural analysis. Computer graphics is an essential ingredient of the finite element analysis process. The use of interactive graphics techniques for analysis of tires is discussed in this presentation. The features and capabilities of the program used for pre- and post-processing for finite element analysis at GenCorp are included.

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.
