Enormous amounts of wastes have been produced due to extensive use of carbon fiber/epoxy resin (CF/EP) composites. The fact that the supercritical fluid can be used to recycle these composites efficiently has attracted widespread concerns. A three-dimensional model of CF/EP laminates considering the interfacial layers was established. The internal stress distribution of laminates was simulated based on a heat transfer model; and the change of shear stress with supercritical temperature and pressure was investigated. The results show that the shear stress concentration was located in the interfacial layers; the maximum shear stress can be expressed by a curve of convex parabola to the temperature; and the most serious damage occurred in interfacial layers when temperature approached the glass-transition temperature of resin.

This study is carried out to evaluate the potential of three hybrid T-beams with web openings theoretical shear stresses distribution. The shear stresses at the opening edges were plotted at the working stage, yielding stage and collapse stage for these three tested beams. The available experimental results from the previous research was compared to the finite element results as well as the developed analytical. The shear stress distribution at the middle of the top and bottom chords of the opening in pure bending region are zero. At the upper and lower corners of the opening occurs the maximum shear stresses. The maximum shear stress occurs at the right lower corner chord at the high moment edge and at the left upper corner chord at the low moment edge in beams with openings at high shear and high flexural – shear region. Furthermore, an extensive parametric study is performed on these beams to find the distributing ratio of the shear force between the opening chords. The shear force at an opening in hybrid R/C T-beam is carried by the top and bottom chords of the opening according to the area – moment of inertia root ratio with the correction factor 0.70.

This paper deals with the stress discontinuities in shear stress distribution of adhesive joints. The three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) software was used to model the joints and predict the shear stress distribution along the whole beam. The FEA results indicated that there are stress discontinuities existing in the shear stress distribution within adhesive layer and adherends at the lower interface and the upper interface of the boded section. The numerical values of the shear stress concentration at key locations of the joints and the stress concentration ratio are discussed.

Recuperator in a microturbine system, which has to work under a high temperature and high pressure condition, is a key component to improve the electricity efficiency of the system. High temperature and pressure may cause high stress inside the Cross-Wavy Primary Surface (CWPS) sheet, and it is essential to analyze the stress distribution to ensure the security while the recuperator is working. In this paper the combined thermomechanical design of a CWPS recuperator for a 100kW microturbine system is presented. With the ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL), calculation procedures for heat transfer and stress analysis are combined in order to perform a reliable strength prediction of the recuperator. A program has been generated, which allows the automatic generation of the numerical model, the mesh and the boundary conditions. Also with the energy minimum principle, an optimal configuration of the air and gas passages is obtained. The results show that the material of the primary sheet (0Cr18Ni11Nb) is reliable. The stress distribution changes with the different configuration of the passages. Since the air pressure is much higher than that of the exhaust gas, the configuration of the primary sheet is much better when the sectional area of the gas passage is larger than that of the air passage. If the pitch of the sheet is maintained at 2mm, the best configuration is obtained when the dimension of passage is at r = 0.35–0.42mm, R = 0.55–0.48mm.

In this study the main causes of the failure of a GE-F9 second stage turbine blade were investigated. The stress distribution of the blade which has 6 cooling vents in three modes (with full cooling, closure of half of the cooling channels, and without cooling) was studied. A three dimensional model of the blade was built and the fluid flow on the blade was studied using the FVM method. The stress distribution due to centrifugal forces applied to the blade, temperature gradients and aerodynamic forces on the blade surface was calculated by the finite element model. The results show that the highest temperature gradient and as a result the highest stress value occurs for the semi-cooling state at the areas near the blade root and this status is true for the full cooling mode for the regions far from the root. However, the field observations showed that the failure occurred for the blade with the semi-cooling state (due to closure of some of the channels) at areas far from the root. It is discussed that the main factor of the failure is not the stress values being maximum because in the state of full cooling mode (the state with the maximum stress values) the temperature of the blade is the lowest state and as a result the material properties of the blade show a better resistance to phenomena like hot corrosion and creep.

The internal stress distribution in elastohydrodynamic lubrication of rolling/sliding line contact was obtained. The technique involves the full EHD solution and the use of Lagrangian quadrature to obtain the internal stress distributions in the x, y, z-directions and the shear stress distribution as a function of the normal pressure and the friction force. The principal stresses and the maximum shear stress were calculated for dimensionless loads ranging from (2.0452 × 10−5) to (1.3 × 10−4) and dimensionless velocity of 10−10 to 10−11 for slip ratios ranging from 0 to pure sliding condition.

The author developed a three-dimensional model for the description of fast plastic deformation of metals in the case of cutting. Shear strain occurring as a result of shear stress has a reverse effect on stress, while the temperature of the material is increasing. These counteracting effects may lead to thermomechanic instability, which may result in aperiodic chaotic conditions besides periodic fluctuation due to the non-linear nature of the process. Apart from bifurcation and multi-cycle periodic deformation, the model also describes aperiodic chaotic deformation, which is proven by experimental results.

Arterial geometry is commonly non-planar and associated with swirling blood flow. In this study, we examine the effect of arterial three-dimensionality on the distribution of wall shear stress (WSS) and the mass transfer of oxygen from the blood to the vessel wall in a U-bend, by modelling the blood vessels as either cylindrical or helical conduits. The results show that under physiological flow conditions, three-dimensionality can reduce both the range and extent of low WSS regions and substantially increase oxygen flux through the walls. The Sherwood number and WSS distributions between the three-dimensional helical model and a human coronary artery show remarkable qualitative agreement, implying that coronary arteries may potentially be described with a relatively simple idealized three-dimensional model, characterized by a small number of well-defined geometric parameters. The flow pattern downstream of a planar bend results in separation of the Sh number and WSS effects, a finding that implies means of investigating them individually.

The contact stress of cemented carbide with NCD coating in elastic contact was analyzed using ANSYS. Factors such as elastic modulus and thickness of NCD film and elastic modulus of interlayer which affect the shear stress distribution of NCD film on cemented carbide substrate were investigated. The results show that the maximum shear stress point moves towards the interface with the increase of film elastic modulus. Film thickness has a significant effect on shear stress distribution of NCD film. High shear stress develops in the film layer with the increase of film thickness. Interlayer with low elastic modulus will cause shear stress concentration in NCD film.
