A COMPACT AND PORTABLE DESIGN DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW ROLLING RESISTANCE TEST RIG

Low Rolling Resistance (LRR) conveyor systems are generally preferred over traditional conveyors because of better overall efficiency lesser energy consumption required to operate. In this work, the design development and analysis path in the process of downscaling the size of an existent LRR test rig to a compact, portable and desktop-sized model is presented. Simulation has been developed using SolidWorks and finite element analysis is conducted using ANSYS to obtain the deformation, stress and strain of each part of the new design.

3D Finite Element Method

Abstract A finite-element stress analysis of a one-piece, integrated, all-composite shaft and coupling is presented. In addition to a brief discussion of design-driving parameters, some limitations of the analytical techniques used for design development are described. The 3D finite-element method (FEM) was then used to evaluate critical stresses and strains experienced by the shaft coupling. A comparison of the results from the finite-element analysis and those from static bending, axial, and torsional tests conducted on these prototype shafts yielded excellent correlation. Some important considerations in the development of the FE model and the correlation of results with tests, especially in the design of composite materials, are addressed.

Drilling frame on TD165CH Down-The-Hole Drill that has large slenderness ratio and be longer than 10m is one component of Down-The-Hole drill which is mainly subjected to load.In the process of drilling, drilling frame is not only subjected to loads which are like tensile, compression and torsion and so on, and be under the influence of impacting and vibration of impactor,the situation of force is complicated.By analysing of working condition of Down-The-Hole drill,there get all kinds of limit states of typical working conditions, and then using Ansys doing finite element analysis, there get distribution of the stress and strain of drilling frame and the result of modal analysis to check whether drilling frame meets the requirements of strength and stiffness or not,and whether it is possible to resonate with the impactor or not.By analysis,Structure strength and stiffness of drilling Frame on TD165CH Down-The-Hole drill meet the requirements of practical engineering, and drilling Frame does not resonate with the impactor.

Biomechanical Evaluation

Millions in the world suffering diabetes mellitus depends on insulin therapy to control their blood glucose level daily. However, the painful daily injections they need to take could lead to other complications if it is not done correctly. To date, it is suggested by many researchers and medical doctors that the needles should be inserted at any angles of 90º or 45º. Nevertheless, this recommendation has not been supported by clinical or biomechanical evaluation. Hence, this study evaluates the needle insertion for insulin therapy to find the favourable angles in order to reduce injury and pain onto the skin. Finite element analysis was done by simulating the injection of three-dimensional (3D) needle model into a 3D skin model. The insertions were simulated at two different angles, which are 45ºand 90º with two different lengths of needles; 4 mm and 6 mm. This study concluded the favourable angle for 4 mm needle to be 90º while 6 mm needle was best to be inserted at 45º as these angles exerted the least maximum stress and strain onto the skin.
