For a structural analysis using the finite element method, a hexahedral element is preferable to a tetrahedral element from the viewpoint of accuracy. However, it is very difficult to subdivide a mesh consisting of hexahedral elements if the shape of the mesh is complicated. Hence, in this paper, as a preliminary research, we use a label-driven subdivision method for a two-dimensional mesh, and show that meshes subdivided nonuniformly can guarantee as much accuracy as meshes with uniform subdivision.

For structure analysis with the finite element method (FEM), the hexahedral element is preferable to the tetrahedral one from the viewpoint of accuracy. Previously, we had introduced a label-driven subdivision method for a two-dimensional mesh and showed that the meshes generated by our method were useful for structural analyses. In this study, we extend our two-dimensional algorithm to three-dimensions and verify that the meshes generated by the proposed mesh-subdivision algorithm are useful for structural analyses.

The main object of this paper is to apply the vector form intrinsic finite element (VFIFE, or V-5) techniques in nonlinear large deformation dynamic analysis for the responses of moving loads on rigid frame structures. In this study, the simulation of moving loading is brought into the vector form intrinsic finite element method. It can effectively simulate the moving load. Comparing the results of the numerical simulations by VFIFE with the results obtained from other literatures, they are very close. It proved that VFIFE can effectively simulate the nonlinear large deformation dynamic problem.

The vector form intrinsic finite element (VFIFE) method is springing up as a new numerical method in strong non-linear structural analysis for its good convergence, but has been constricted in static or transient analysis. To overwhelm its disadvantages, a new damping model was proposed: the value of damping force is proportional to relative velocity instead of absolute velocity, which could avoid inaccuracy in high-speed dynamic analysis. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method proved under low speed; dynamic characteristics and vibration rules have been verified under high speed. Simulation results showed that the modified VFIFE method could obtain numerical solutions with good efficiency and accuracy. Based on this modified method, high-speed vibration rules of spiral bevel gear pair under different loads have been concluded. The proposed method also provides a new way to solve high-speed rotor system dynamic problems.
