Objective: To study the dependence of the numerical values of the bearing reactions occurring in the bolted fasteners of the gear casing (GC) on the conditions of its fastening to the traction motor. To show the resulting redistribution of the bearing reaction values in the case of the lack of load bearing in one or two bolted fasteners from the three existing design ones. To calculate the equivalent stresses that appear in the gear casing structure under various abnormal conditions of its fastening to the traction motor under static loading. Methods: The equations of statics were used for the spatial system of forces, including three vertical bearing reactions and the weight of the casing itself. To study the stress-strain state of the casing in the case of its static loading, the finite element method was used, implemented in the ANSYS Workbench software package. Results: The cause of damage to the GC during operation has been found associated with its design flaws. Calculation formulas have been obtained for determining the vertical bearing reactions of the GC. The need to take into account the GC loading in the case of redistribution of loads due to the loosening of its fastening bolts has been found. The need to improve the design of the gear casing has been indicated. Practical importance: The probable cause of damage to the GC during operation has been found. A method is proposed for assessing the GC loading in the case of redistribution of loads between its bearing points.

The paper introduces the results of studying the stress-strain state of the Novikov gearing in comparison with the involute gearing, similar in geometric parameters. In both versions, the wheel and gear are selected in size and gear ratio in accordance with the most common recommendations without additional hardening by chemical heat treatment. The zone of multiple contact of mated profiles is analyzed: changes in the geometry of contacts, pressure in the contact and stresses in various phases of gearing.

The purpose of the work is to compare two calculation methods using the example of solving the axisymmetric thermoelasticity problem. The calculation of a thick-walled cylindrical three-layer shell on the temperature effect was carried out by the numerical-analytical method and the finite element method implemented in the LIRA-CAD software package. In the calculation, a piecewise linear inhomogeneity of the shell due to its three-layer structure and continuous inhomogeneity caused by the influence of a stationary temperature field is taken into account. The numerical-analytical method of calculation involves the derivation of a resolving differential equation, which is solved by the sweep method, it is possible to take into account the nonlinear nature of the deformation of the material using the method of successive approximations. To solve this problem by the finite element method, a similar computational model of the shell was constructed in the LIRA-CAD software package. The solution of the problem of thermoelasticity for an infinite cylinder (under conditions of a plane deformed state) and for a cylinder of finite length with free ends is given. Comparison of the calculation results is carried out according to the obtained values of ring stresses.

A 3-Dimensional fluid flow over the sudden expansion region of a horizontal duct for various Reynolds numbers have been studied by using the CFD Software package ANSYS Workbench Fluent v 13.0. The expansion ratio and aspect ratio for the sudden expansion are taken as 2.5 and 4 respectively. This work deals with the finding of critical Reynolds number for a fluid and also the length of re-attachments on stepped walls at various Reynolds numbers for the same fluid. The simulation is carried out in sudden expansion for Reynolds number ranging from 200 to 4000. The variations of local Nusselt number along the stepped walls of the sudden expansion are presented with the heat flux of 35 W/m2 on the stepped walls. Also, the plots of pressure coefficient (Cp) along the stepped walls for different Reynolds numbers are presented in this work.

Abstract The article focuses on compressive axial loading experimental testing and simulations of topologically optimized design and additively manufactured cervical implants. The proposed platform design is based on anatomical and biomechanical requirements for application in the cervical area. Thanks to new ways of production, such as additive manufacturing, and new software possibilities in the field of structural analysis, which use the finite element method and analysis, it is possible to execute topological optimization of an implant in construction solution, which would be impossible to make by conventional methods. The contribution of this work lies in investigation of 3D printed PLA cervical implant usage in surgical intervention and creation of a numerical static loading modelling methodics and subsequent experimental confirmation of the modelling correctness.

The article presents solutions to the problem of rod buckling, taking into account creep effects. Trigonometric series, the finite difference method in combination with the programming language MATLAB, as well as the finite element method in the ANSYS software package were used in the solutions. The behavior of the rods is researched for two types of relations between strain and stress during creep, with strains in an explicit and implicit form. When solving, the criterion of initial imperfections with their different values is used, as well as the tangential-modular theory. The results obtained for the two creep models are compared. The conclusion is made about the accuracy of the results of calculations in ANSYS with the presence of a combination of geometric and physical nonlinearity for various creep models.

This paper presents the evaluation of residual stresses and stresses induced by external loads in a water drinker by numerical and experimental methods. The part, used in animal husbandry, is made of grey cast iron (EN GJL 200). Numerical simulations were based on the finite element method, using ANSYS Workbench software to determine the stresses produced by external loads and finite volume method, using NovaFlow software, to determine residual stresses. The results obtained by numerical methods, were validated by experimental methods. Applied experimental methods consist of electrical resistive strain gauge technique to determine the state of stress in various loading conditions and the blind hole method to determine residual stresses, respectively.

General optimization models for the dimensional synthesis of defect-free Revolute-Cylindrical-Cylindrical-Cylindrical linkages with static loading are formulated and evaluated in this work. With these optimization models, Revolute-Cylindrical-Cylindrical-Cylindrical linkage dimensions required to approximate coupler positions or coupler path points while achieving static equilibrium (given coupler loads) within a maximum driver static torque are calculated. These models also include constraints that eliminate order, branch and circuit defects-defects that are common in traditional dyad-based dimensional synthesis. Therefore, the novelty of this work is the development of optimization models that permit the synthesis of order, branch and circuit defect-free Revolute-Cylindrical-Cylindrical-Cylindrical motion and path generators that also achieve static equilibrium within a maximum specified driver torque magnitude for specified coupler loads. This work conveys both the benefits and drawbacks realized when implementing these optimization models on a personal computer using the commercial mathematical analysis software package Matlab.
