The work is devoted to solving indentation problems into an elastic half-space of a cylindrical punch with a flat base by the vertical force. The force is aimed through the center of the base. The cross-section of the stamp is a doubly connected area bounded by two concentric lines. A concise review of methods for solving problems of analyzing the contact interaction of cylindrical dies with an elastic half-space is given. The solution of the problem in the form of decomposition by a small parameter is used when the equation of the edge curves depends on the same small parameter. To achieve it, in each approximation, the problem of indentation of a stamp with a doubly connected contact area in the form of a non-circular ring is reduced to a similar problem of indentation of a stamp with a contact area in the form of a circular ring. The software in the Java language has been developed for processing the analytical solution according to the obtained calculation formulas. With the help of the ANSYS software package, a finite element model of the contact interaction of an absolutely rigid stamp with an elastic half-space has been created. Numerical modeling was carried out using a licensed version of the program, free of charge. Several problems have been solved for square rings of different widths. The distribution of pressure under the stamp over different sections and the deepening of the stamp have been obtained. The pressure distribution graphs are plotted. When considering several test problems to assess the adequacy of the finite element model, the numerical results are compared with the results obtained analytically. The resulting model can analyze and predict loads, wear, and fracture of the contact area. The research prospects can include the solution of several problems of analysis of the stress-strain state of the interaction of dies of a complex shape with an elastic half-space, as well as groups of stamps of a complex shape, and the analysis of behavior models depending on the properties and characteristics of an elastic half-space. Keywords: contact problem, stamp, stress-strain state, modeling, JAVA language, finite element analysis, ANSYS software package.

In this paper, new design of micro-gripper with shape memory alloy (SMA) actuator is presented. Double SMA actuators were used to enhance the performance of the micro-gripper by using hinge mechanisms; the little displacement of the SMA wire is converted into larger displacement of the tips of the micro-gripper. Stainless steel (St 304) was used as a main material of the gripper structure. Shape memory alloy (Ni-Ti) wires were used as actuators. Finite element model analysis (FEA) using ANSYS software package was used to simulate displacement and stress analysis on the micro gripper. Finally a comparison between the enhanced design and the initial one showed better results in terms of increasing the gripper stroke and reducing the stress on the gripper joints.

In this thesis, the process of electromagnetic drying cylinder was analyzed creating by the dryer finite element model using ANSYS. The conduction thermal analysis, the applied load and solved showed the results of three major components. Which create a finite element model of the process, mainly the preprocessor using ANSYS software to create or import geometric models from other software applications, and then add the material properties. The last of the geometric model meshing and solving process need to enter solvers according to the actual situation. The setting is applied to the thermal load and conditions. Then it is proceed to the finite element solution operator. It final usually the Post 1, or Post2 view results, and based on our experience to judge correctly

To research the load upper bracket of Francis hydroelectric unit, then established the finite-element model, and analyzed the structure stress of 7 operating condition points with the ANSYS software. By the strain rosette test, acquired the data of stress-strain in the area of stress concentration of the upper bracket. The inaccuracy was considered below 5% by analyzing the contradistinction between the finite-element analysis and the test, and match the engineering precision and the test was reliable. The finite-element method could be used to judge the stress of the upper bracket, and it could provide reference for the Structural optimization and improvement too.

The present paper, describes a transient translating elasto-plastic thermo-mechanical finite element model to study 2-D frictional rolling contact. Frictional two-dimensional contact is simulated by repeatedly translating a non-uniform thermo-mechanical distribution across the surface of an elasto-plastic half space. The half space is represented by a two dimensional finite element mesh with appropriate boundaries. Calculations are for an elastic-perfectly plastic material and the selected thermo-physical properties are assumed to be temperature independent. The paper presents temperature variations, stress and plastic strain distributions and deformations. Residual tensile stresses are observed. The magnitude and depth of these stresses depends on 1) the temperature gradients and 2) the magnitudes of the normal and tangential tractions.

The finite element model of the space KX-Joint was established using ANSYS software, and the failure mode and ultimate bearing capacity of KX-joint were researched. Calculation results show that the surface of chord wall on the roots of compression web members was into the plastic in K plane, and the holding pole without the plastic area and the local buckling failure happened in the surface of chord wall on the roots of Compression Web Members in X plane; The bearing capacity of the joint increased with the Chord diameter, which was appears in the form of power function.

In order to study the static and dynamical characteristics of the crankshaft, ANSYS software was used to carry out the corresponding calculations. The entity model of the crankshaft was established by UG software firstly, and then was imported into ANSYS software for meshing, and then the finite element model of the crankshaft was constructed. The crankshaft satisfied the requirement of stiffness and strength through static analysis. The top six natural frequencies and corresponding shapes were acquired through modal analysis, and the every order critical rotating speed of the crankshaft was calculated. The fatigue life of the crank was calculated by fatigue module of ANSYS software finally. These results offered the theoretical guidance for designing, manufacturing and repairing the crankshaft.
