Particle dampers are devices used to control the vibration of mechanical systems. In this research, prototypes of rotary elastomer particle dampers are experimentally tested considering gap and no gap between shaft and cylinder. There is a gap between the rotor and cylinder in the gap model; particles can move from one chamber to another. There is no space for the particles to move from one chamber to another in the no-gap model. Elastomer particles are soft, and they have different behavior from hard (metallic) particles. Experiments on rotary elastomer particle dampers considering the gap between rotor and cylinder helped investigate the effects of the change in packing fraction, rotational speed, size of elastomers, and the gap between the rotor and the damper body. A numerical simulation approach based on the discrete element analysis method is used to perform a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the rotary elastomer particle damper. The simulation results are in great agreement with the experiment results. It is observed that packing fraction, rotational speed, size of elastomer particles, and the gap between rotor and cylinder play a vital role in producing higher damper torque.

This study analyzes the maximum load on the shaft construction with a diameter of 12 mm and a length of 581 mm. The shaft is designed as a shaft for cutting meat with a capacity of 5 kg. The analysis was performed using the finite element analysis method included in the Autodesk software. According to mathematical calculations, the shaft is considered safe because the value of the admissible tension τa = 7.380 kg / mm2 is greater than the maximum tension τp 5.62 kg / mm2. Based on the simulation results of the test, the shaft experiences a maximum off-stress of 61.89 MPa, a maximum displacement of 0.07715 mm, , and a safety factor of 3.34 µl so that the shaft is classified as safe for use with a Load capacity of 5 Kg

In order to simulate the thermal influence on springback property of O-ring, based on elastic-plastic contact analysis method of finite element analysis (FEA), numerical simulation of compression-springback course of O-ring was carried out by ANSYS software. The results show that it causes a sharp decrease in the peak force applied on O-ring, corresponding to a decline on the contact stress distribution which may influence the seal ability of the O-ring. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results.

Three different kinds of carcass A, B and C for aircraft tires were presented in the article, which is based on the different length of rolling up for carcass cord across the bead ring. And then they were simulated by applying finite element analysis method when aircraft tire was landing in an instant. The simulation results indicated that, the carcass structure of rolling up from the side of bead extending to the other bead (A type) has the minimum deformation, which can reduce the outward of bulge for the side wall and effectively resolve the failure problem for rubber in the sidewall of tire , what’s more , it can prolong the life of aircraft tire to a certain degree and provide good braking performance.

Abstract REFERENCE: H. M. R. Aboutorabi and L. Kung, “Application of Coupled Structural Acoustic Analysis and Sensitivity Calculations to a Tire Noise Problem,” Tire Science and Technology, TSTCA, Vol. 40, No. 1, January – March 2012, pp. 25–41. ABSTRACT: Tire qualification for an original equipment (OE) program consists of several rounds of submissions by the tire manufacturer for evaluation by the vehicle manufacturer. Tires are evaluated both subjectively, where the tire performance is rated by an expert driver, and objectively, where sensors and testing instruments are used to measure the tire performance. At the end of each round of testing the evaluation results are shared and requirements for performance improvement for the next round are communicated with the tire manufacturer. As building and testing is both expensive and time consuming predictive modeling and simulation analysis that can be applied to the performance of the tire is of great interest and value. This paper presents an application of finite element analysis (FEA) modeling along with experimental verification to solve tire noise objections at certain frequencies raised by an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) account. Coupled structural-acoustic analysis method was used to find modal characteristics of the tire at the objectionable frequencies. Sensitivity calculations were then carried out to evaluate the strength of contribution from each tire component to the identified modes. Based on these findings changes to the construction were proposed and implemented that addressed the noise issue.

The purpose of this study was to determinate , using the Finite Element Analysis Method, the mechanical stress in a solid body , temporary molar restored with the self-curing GC material. The originality of our study consisted in using an accurate structural model and applying a concentrated force and a uniformly distributed pressure. Molar structure was meshed in a Solid Type 45 and the output data were obtained using the ANSYS software. The practical predictions can be made about the behavior of different restorations materials.
