A heat exchanger is a device used to transfer heat without mass transfer. The equipment must be designed according to established standards. The standard that is widely used is the standardissued by TEMA (Tubular Exchanger Manufacturer Association). The results of the design of theheat exchanger with these standards are considered less efficient in terms of the material. Theefficiency of the material used can be analyzed by stress analysis on the components that withstand the force, and one of these components is the tube sheet. Stress analysis on tube sheets can use finite element-based software. The results of the research show that the tube sheet design that refers to the TEMA standard is relatively safe because the maximum von Mises stress is below the yield strength of the material used, while the overdesign value is rather significant because the average von Mises stress is also far below the yield strength of the material used.

This work presents a study of a fatigue test and a finite element analysis on an arch bridge stainless steel suspender with threaded connections. A suspender which had a diameter of 70mm was tested under axial tensile loads range from 430kN to 700kN. The suspender was sudden failure from the thread root of the first loaded tooth in the pin after 1546609 cycles. Then, a two-dimensional axisymmetric modeling ignoring the helix angle of the thread was established with finite element software ANSYS to perform a stress analysis of the threaded connection. The stress concentration factors (SCFs) at the root of the teeth of pin were investigated under the applied external loading. The conclusive results had been drawn from the analysis including the location and the value of maximum SCF in the pin. Finally, the location and the value of the maximum von Mises stress were given. The results showed that the location of the fracture surface was consistent with the location of the maximum von Mises stress.

Aim: To study the stress distribution in Class 2 Inlay of various materials on Mandibular Molar. Background: Inlays are fabricated using different materials like gold, porcelain or a cast metal alloy. Difference in the modulus of elasticity of the material and tooth structure would lead to generation of stresses leading to failure of the restoration or loss of tooth structure. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a mathematical tool for stress analysis in a structure. Von Mises stress being the combination of normal and shear stresses which occur in all directions. This stress has to be given diligent importance while considering the type and material of restoration to achieve long-term success. Methodology: In our study, stress analysis was performed on the mandibular first molar using a stress analysis software (ANSYS). A computer model of mandibular first molar was generated along with generation of an inlay volume using a FEA software preprocessor. The models with the class 2 inlays of different materials were subjected to 350N and 800N load simulating normal masticatory force and bruxism respectively. Maximum and minimum stresses were calculated for each model separately. Results: Von Mises stress distribution for different materials for normal masticatory forces and bruxism were studied and evaluated. Conclusion: The study revealed the maximum and minimum stresses imposed over the tooth and the restoration and provides insight into the areas which are more prone to fracture under the occlusal load.

Stress analysis of adhesive bonding of urea granulator fluidization bed was performed by using finite element method. The main objective of this project is to develop an alternative joining technique for urea granulator fluidizationbed by using adhesive bonding. The problem can solve by using commercial finite element package ANSYS version 13.0. T-joint and double T-joint are the main adhesive joints which will be focused in this project. The stresses on stainless steel plate can reduce by increasing the thickness of adhesive as demonstrated in numerical analysis results. Different thickness of adhesive will give different value of maximum von Mises stress. It shows that greater thickness resulted in higher maximum. This analysis proves that increasing the adhesive thickness will reduces the joint strength because stress was concentrated more on the adhesive interfaces. The adhesive bonding on T-joint is stronger than other design of joint because it need lower stress. It followed by first design of double T-joint and second design of double T-joint.

Castellated steel beams are made from normal steel beams cut into half with certain pattern and re-jointed to increase its height. This action results in many shapes of openings in its web, one of them being circular. Circular openings of castellated beams can also be implemented with single fix supported structures, but if uniform shape is used, it will reduce its effectiveness. In this paper, adoption of tapered shape on castellated beams with circular openings as cantilever structures will be discussed. This study uses 150x75x5x7 and 200x100x5.5x8 IWF sections with variations of opening diameters, opening spaces, and span lengths. The steel has a yield strength of 400 MPa and the analysis runs with solid element 10-node tetrahedron using the finite element method, by observing Von Mises stress and displacement. Free-licenced software such as LISAFEA 8.0 and FreeCAD are utilized for analysing and drawing solid elements. The result shows that the optimum height of IWF section for 150x75x5x7 is 230 mm and for 200x100x5.5x8 is 318 mm between span lengths of 2 m to 3.5 m. It can be concluded that each of the span lengths has various optimum diameters and opening spaces to acquire the smallest stress and displacement.

An ideal occlusal scheme plays an important role in a good prognosis of All-on-Four applications, as it does for other implant therapies, due to the potential impact of occlusal loads on implant prosthetic components. The aim of the present three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) study was to investigate the stresses on abutments, screws and prostheses that are generated by occlusal loads via different occlusal schemes in the All-on-Four concept. Three-dimensional models of the maxilla, mandible, implants, implant substructures and prostheses were designed according to the All-on-Four concept. Forces were applied from the occlusal contact points formed in maximum intercuspation and eccentric movements in canine guidance occlusion (CGO), group function occlusion (GFO) and lingualized occlusion (LO). The von Mises stress values for abutment and screws and deformation values for prostheses were obtained and results were evaluated comparatively. It was observed that the stresses on screws and abutments were more evenly distributed in GFO. Maximum deformation values for prosthesis were observed in the CFO model for lateral movement both in the maxilla and mandible. Within the limits of the present study, GFO may be suggested to reduce stresses on screws, abutments and prostheses in the All-on-Four concept.

For the analysis of structural components, the finite element method (FEM) has become the most widely applied tool for numerical stress- and subsequent durability analyses. In industrial application advanced FE-models result in high numbers of degrees of freedom, making dynamic analyses time-consuming and expensive. As detailed finite element models are necessary for accurate stress results, the resulting data and connected numerical effort from dynamic stress analysis can be high. For the reduction of that effort, sophisticated methods have been developed to limit numerical calculations and processing of data to only small fractions of the global model. Therefore, detailed knowledge of the position of a component’s highly stressed areas is of great advantage for any present or subsequent analysis steps. In this paper an efficient method for the a priori detection of highly stressed areas of force-excited components is presented, based on modal stress superposition. As the component’s dynamic response and corresponding stress is always a function of its excitation, special attention is paid to the influence of the loading position. Based on the frequency domain solution of the modally decoupled equations of motion, a coefficient for a priori weighted superposition of modal von Mises stress fields is developed and validated on a simply supported cantilever beam structure with variable loading positions. The proposed approach is then applied to a simplified industrial model of a twist beam rear axle.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) matrix composite overwrap repair systems have been introduced and accepted as an alternative repair system for steel pipeline. This paper aimed to evaluate the mechanical behavior of damaged steel pipeline with CFRP repair using finite element (FE) analysis. Two different repair strategies, namely wrap repair and patch repair, were considered. The mechanical responses of pipeline with the composite repair system under the maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP) was analyzed using the validated FE models. The design parameters of the CFRP repair system were analyzed, including patch/wrap size and thickness, defect size, interface bonding, and the material properties of the infill material. The results show that both the stress in the pipe wall and CFRP could be reduced by using a thicker CFRP. With the increase in patch size in the hoop direction, the maximum von Mises stress in the pipe wall generally decreased as the maximum hoop stress in the CFRP increased. The reinforcement of the CFRP repair system could be enhanced by using infill material with a higher elastic modulus. The CFRP patch tended to cause higher interface shear stress than CFRP wrap, but the shear stress could be reduced by using a thicker CFRP. Compared with the fully bonded condition, the frictional interface causes a decrease in hoop stress in the CFRP but an increase in von Mises stress in the steel. The study results indicate the feasibility of composite repair for damaged steel pipeline.

The aim of the present investigation was to calculate the stress distribution generated in the root dentine canal during mechanical rotation of five different NiTi endodontic instruments by means of a finite element analysis (FEA). Two conventional alloy NiTi instruments F360 25/04 and F6 Skytaper 25/06, in comparison to three heat treated alloys NiTI Hyflex CM 25/04, Protaper Next 25/06 and One Curve 25/06 were considered and analyzed. The instruments’ flexibility (reaction force) and geometrical features (cross section, conicity) were previously investigated. For each instrument, dentine root canals with two different elastic moduli(18 and 42 GPa) were simulated with defined apical ratios. Ten different CAD instrument models were created and their mechanical behaviors were analyzed by a 3D-FEA. Static structural analyses were performed with a non-failure condition, since a linear elastic behavior was assumed for all components. All the instruments generated a stress area concentration in correspondence to the root canal curvature at approx. 7 mm from the apex. The maximum values were found when instruments were analyzed in the highest elastic modulus dentine canal. Strain and von Mises stress patterns showed a higher concentration in the first part of curved radius of all the instruments. Conventional Ni-Ti endodontic instruments demonstrated higher stress magnitudes, regardless of the conicity of 4% and 6%, and they showed the highest von Mises stress values in sound, as well as in mineralized dentine canals. Heat-treated endodontic instruments with higher flexibility values showed a reduced stress concentration map. Hyflex CM 25/04 displayed the lowest von Mises stress values of, respectively, 35.73 and 44.30 GPa for sound and mineralized dentine. The mechanical behavior of all rotary endodontic instruments was influenced by the different elastic moduli and by the dentine canal rigidity.

Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to compare methods used for calculating heterogeneous patient-specific bone properties used in finite element analysis (FEA), in the field of implant dentistry, with the method based on homogenous bone properties. Materials and Methods In this study, three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography data of an edentulous patient were processed to create a finite element model, and five identical 3D implant models were created and distributed throughout the dental arch. Based on the calculation methods used for bone material assignment, four groups—groups I to IV—were defined. Groups I to III relied on heterogeneous bone property assignment based on different equations, whereas group IV relied on homogenous bone properties. Finally, 150 N vertical and 60-degree-inclined forces were applied at the top of the implant abutments to calculate the von Mises stress and strain. Results Groups I and II presented the highest stress and strain values, respectively. Based on the implant location, differences were observed between the stress values of group I, II, and III compared with group IV; however, no clear order was noted. Accordingly, variable von Mises stress and strain reactions at the bone–implant interface were observed among the heterogeneous bone property groups when compared with the homogenous property group results at the same implant positions. Conclusion Although the use of heterogeneous bone properties as material assignments in FEA studies seem promising for patient-specific analysis, the variations between their results raise doubts about their reliability. The results were influenced by implants’ locations leading to misleading clinical simulations.
