Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices will enable easy loading, unloading and transportation of heavy metal coils. A balanced c-hook is one of the widely used Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices works by inserting its lower arm inside the hole of coil. Multiple variations of c hooks are being used based on different load requirements, and different applications like paper roll c hooks to transport heavy paper rolls, spring loaded c hooks to reduce weight by avoiding counter weights etc. Structural and mechanical lifters may be modified or re-assessed, provided that such alterations are analyzed and approved. Balanced c-Hook are to be designed by considering forces imposed by the lifted load, the weights of the device’s parts, since balanced c hooks are subjected repeated loading and unloading, there is probability of failure due stress concentration. To prevent chances of failure, Prior study is required on this; the materials which are generally used for the C hook are considered for a particular loading condition of 10 Tons, Design of the bellow the hooks is done by numerical method. Modeling and Simulations are carried to determine the various factors like deformation, stresses generated and mode shapes. The comparison among all the selected materials is done to check the suitability of the material to use as a balanced C hook. For the generation of CAD model of C -Hook various geometrical features and Dimensions are selected as per the specification from ASME B30.20 standard. To investigate statics stress results and model are obtained from Finite element Method.  from the results of the analysis it is observed that results obtained are in close match with each other and maximum stress concentration occurs at inner most surface.

The head frame is a key component which plays a supportive and accommodative role in the spindle system of CNC machine tool. Improving the static and dynamic characteristics has profound significance to the development of machine tool and product performance. The simplified finite element modal is established with ANSYS to carry out the static and modal analysis. The results showed that the maximum deformation of the head frame was 0.0066mm, the maximum stress was 3.94Mpa, the deformation of most region was no more than 0.0007mm, which all verified that the head frame had a good stiffness and deforming resistance; several improvement measures for dynamic performance were also proposed by analyzing the mode shapes, and the 1st order natural frequency increased 7.33% while the head frame mass only increased 1.58% applying the optimal measure, which improved the dynamic characteristics of the head frame effectively.

The multistage and discontinuous nature of the injection process used in the geological storage of CO2 causes reservoirs to experience repeated loading and unloading. The reservoir permeability changes caused by this phenomenon directly impact the CO2 injection process and the process of CO2 migration in the reservoirs. Through laboratory experiments, variations in the permeability of sandstone in the Liujiagou formation of the Ordos CO2 capture and storage (CCS) demonstration project were analyzed using cyclic variations in injection pressure and confining pressure and multistage loading and unloading. The variation in the micropore structure and its influence on the permeability were analyzed based on micropore structure tests. In addition, the effects of multiple stress changes on the permeability of the same type of rock with different clay minerals content were also analyzed. More attention should be devoted to the influence of pressure variations on permeability in evaluations of storage potential and studies of CO2 migration in reservoirs in CCS engineering.

The “frozen stress” techniques of photoelasticity can give a complete knowledge of the stress, system in a solid body, but the examination of the stresses requires more time and care than in corresponding flat plate tests. In tests on tubes with transverse circular holes, sponsored by The Royal Aeronautical Society, all practicable geometrical shapes are examined and the maximum stress is measured in tension, bending and torsion. The results are comprehensive and show the inadequacy of previous results. In all cases the maximum stress occurs inside the bore of the hole. The accuracy of all the graphs of stress concentration factors is better than five per cent.

A plate weakened by an oblique penetration of a circular cylindrical hole has been investigated. The stress concentration around the hole is determined by a finite-element method. The results are compared with experimental data and other analytical works. Parametric studies of effects of angle of inclination, plate thickness, and width are performed. The maximum stress concentration factor (SCF) obtained from the finite-element analysis is higher than experimental results, and this deviation increases with the increase of angle of skewness. The major reason for this difference is attributed to the shear-action between layers parallel to the plate surface which cannot be directly included in the two-dimensional elements. An empirical formula is derived which accounts for the shear-action and renders the finite-element predictions in line with experimentally observed data.

The objectives of this study are to determine the stress intensity factor (SIF) for different surface crack size of the lumbar vertebra and the probability of failure associated with finite element method. In this work, all the model components were meshed using the tetrahedral solid element. In order to simplify the model, all the spinal components were modeled as an isotropic and elastic material. Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) technique was performed to conduct the probabilistic analysis using a probabilistic module in ANSYS with attempt for 100 trials. The results are observed that the maximum SIF were found in the end of crack path with 0.53 MPa.m1/2 and the corresponding probability of failure for the model is 1.22%. Sensitivity analysis had been revealed that the crack size was sensitive to the maximum stress and maximum SIF output parameters with correlation 0.989 and 0.811 respectively. The current probabilistic study is useful as a tool to understand the inherent uncertainties and variations in biological models.

A pinned connection or lug joint is a common connection type used both in civil engineering and mechanical engineering. In civil engineering, this connection is used for assembling truss members, and in mechanical engineering, this connection type is widely used in machine elements. The standard design is with a circular pin. The stress concentration factor size depends on the tolerances between pin and assembled parts and also by the three-dimensional design. Relatively different maximum stress values are seen depending on the modelling being done in two dimension (with assumptions) or in full three dimension. The focus in the present article is on the two-dimensional design and minimizing the maximum stress. It is shown that not only the contact geometry is important for reducing the stress, the external design is equally important. By finite element analysis including contact modelling, it is shown that reduction in the stress concentration factor of up to 18% is possible.

This paper studies the influence of adhesive dimensions on the transverse free vibration of the single-lap adhesive cantilevered beams. The researches are performed by employing software ansys .Efficient analytic results of natural frequencies and mode shapes of transverse free vibration of the beams are provided, corresponding to different adhesive dimensions of bonded thicknesses and bondlines length. Bondlines length has more significant influence on the transverse natural frequencies and the lap joint’s mode shapes of the beams than bonded thickness. The transverse natural frequencies decrease with a decrease in the bondlines length of adhesive, but do not appear to variation observably with a decrease in the bonded thickness. Bondlines length shorting, the lap joint has a sharper mode shape. Simultaneously, the lap joint of even mode shapes influences the dynamic response of the beams significantly. These results indicate a local crack in adhesive layers because of the existence of stress concentration.

Background and Objectives. A key factor for the long-term function of a dental implant is the manner in which stresses are transferred to the surrounding bone. The effect of adding a stiffener to the tissue side of the Hader bar helps to reduce the transmission of the stresses to the alveolar bone. But the ideal thickness of the stiffener to be attached to the bar is a subject of much debate. This study aims to analyze the force transfer and stress distribution of an implant-supported overdenture with a Hader bar attachment. The stiffener of the bar attachments was varied and the stress distribution to the bone around the implant was studied. Methods. A CT scan of edentulous mandible was used and three models with 1, 2, and 3 mm thick stiffeners were created and subjected to loads of emulating the masticatory forces. These different models were analyzed by the Finite Element Software (Ansys, Version 8.0) using von Mises stress analysis. Results. The results showed that the maximum stress concentration was seen in the neck of the implant for models A and B. In model C the maximum stress concentration was in the bar attachment making it the model with the best stress distribution, as far as implant failures are concerned. Conclusion. The implant with Hader bar attachment with a 3 mm stiffener is the best in terms of stress distribution, where the stress is concentrated at the bar and stiffener regions.
