This article describes an ergonomic analysis tool called the Ergonomic Simulation Analysis System (ESAS). This system is used in conjunction with computer graphic simulation software. The ESAS integrates work physiology ergonomic models and indexes with manufacturing workplace simulation. It enables engineers and analysts to extract from the simulation sequences robust and meaningful ergonomic analyses in lifting and in repetitive motion activities. The system is simple to operate, allows analysts to execute its functions in a seamless manner when using other software, provides robust results with very little setup time investment, and provides effective and readily assimilated visual products of candidate workplace designs and work methods.

With the continuous improvement of complexity in the space simulation system and the enhancement of multi-technology integration, the co-simulation technology is an important way to solve complex simulation problems in the big system. After analysis of relative theories and main methods of co-simulation, collaboration data interfaces among multiple software are improved and matched with a number of simulation software system. The co-simulation framework is designed and a set of spacecraft dynamics co-simulation analysis system is established on the frame of HLA / RTI and on the principle of co-simulation technology. The key task on orbit service of the spacecraft is modeled and simulated. The software can complete the work that a single simulation software could not be done and achieve good results.

Objectives: With the rapid development of sports biomechanics, a new frontier discipline, the modeling and Simulation of human motion, as one of the cutting-edge research topics of sports biomechanics, is receiving more and more attention.. Methods: Based on this, this paper provides theoretical support for the analysis and research of foot stress in the process of training and applies it to guiding practice by using the analysis technology based on sports biomechanics and the method of foot pressure and simulation modeling and analysis system. Results: The results of the study showed that the injury of the athletes in the lower limbs accounted for about 46.7%, followed by the injury of the upper limbs and the injury of the trunk. In the lower extremity injury, the most common part of the foot joint is about 28.1%. Conclusion: Studies have shown that the changes in the force of the athlete’s foot after fatigue have not had the good stability before, the duration of each stage of the completion of the movement is changing, and the control of the ankle joint is decreasing, which greatly increases the foot joint. The possibility of injury.

In fluid numerical simulation calculation, FLUENT is one of the most commonly used engineering software. By the way of pressure velocity coupling, FLUENT can solve the flow field, and use the finite volume method to speed up the convergence. In order to improve the calculation accuracy, FLUENT is divided into single precision and double precision to meet the need of practical engineering. In this paper, by using FLUENT numerical simulation software, combined with UDF programming, we analyze the temperature and smoke distribution when large building fire occurs. The GAMBIT software is used for the numerical modeling, and we use Tecplot software to carry out the post processing of results. Through numerical simulation, the fire temperature value reaches 1050K without wind, while with wind the temperature is 1030K, , which is consistent with the actual situation. In the absence of ventilation condition, concentration is 0.0112; under the condition of ventilation concentration is 0.0052, which is consistent with the actual situation. Therefore in the building fire safety, the first thing to consider is ventilation, which can reduce the fire temperature and concentration and security personnel safe evacuation.

Self-tuning physical database organization involves tools that determine automatically the best solution concerning partitioning, placement, creation and tuning of auxiliary structures (e.g. indexes), based on the workload. To the best of our knowledge, no tool has focused on a relevant issue in parallel databases and in particular data warehouses running on common off-the-shelf hardware in a sharednothing configuration: determining the adequate tradeoff for balancing load and availability with costs (storage and loading costs). In previous work, we argued that effective load and availability balancing over partitioned datasets can be obtained through chunk-wise placement and replication, together with on-demand processing. In this work, we propose ChunkSim, a simulator for system size planning, performance analysis against replication degree and availability analysis. We apply the tool to illustrate the kind of results that can be obtained by it. The whole discussion in the chapter provides very important insight into data allocation and query processing over shared-nothing data warehouses and how a good simulation analysis tool can be built to predict and analyze actual systems and intended deployments.

In the production and gathering process of coal gas, the complex composition of the coal gas, harsh environments, the complex medium, and high content of solid particles in slurry cause the equipment malfunctions and even failure because of erosion and corrosion. In the present study, COMSOL multi-physics finite element simulation software is used to simulate the erosion–corrosion behaviors of elbow in key chemical equipments. The electrochemical corrosion, solid particle erosion, chemical reaction, and turbulent flow are coupled together. The particle count method is proposed to clarify the erosion phenomenon. The simulation results show that particles with high turbulent intensity hit the wall of elbow directly, which forms a slanted elliptical erosion zone on the extrados surface at 40°–50°. The chemical reaction in turbulence has a difference in the concentration distribution of substances, and this phenomenon leads to different magnitudes of the corrosion current densities in the tube. Moreover, 1/6 released particles hit the extrados surface of the elbow. These findings are beneficial to understand the erosion–corrosion phenomena and design the elbow in key chemical equipment.
