The Finite Element Analysis

The jumping characteristics at the driven pulley of L type synchronous belt drives are experimentally and analytically discussed. The number of the driving and the driven pulley teeth is the same and the wrapping angle of the belt on both pulleys is π radian. In this paper, the meshing state of belts on both of the driving and driven pulleys just before jumping is analyzed using the Finite Element analysis. Standardized L type synchronous belts and pulleys are used for analysis and experiments of the meshing states between belt and pulley, load distribution stress analysis and jumping torque. A 337L075 trapezoidal tooth profile synchronous belt and a 36L075 synchronous pulley are used in the analysis and the experiments. The wrapping angle of belt on both the driving and the driven pulley is equal to π radian. “ABAQUS/Standard” is used for the simulation and analysis of the belt. The simulation of the FE analysis of the wrapping angle of the belt on the driven pulley is almost the same with the experimental result. FE analysis of the load distribution just before jumping on the driven pulley agrees well with the experimental results.

Joint Implants

This research article presents a design parameter assessment technique for three-dimensional printed hip joint implants. A coupled experimental-simulation-based design technique, addressing minimum coating thickness, hardness, and adhesion requirements, is proposed for safe designs of individual three-dimensional printed hip joint implants. The purpose of this study is to analyze the mechanical properties of individual three-dimensional scanned hip joint human bone geometry through numerical simulation and relate these properties to hardness and adhesion values of bio-compatible coatings. The hardness and adhesion experimental results are discussed, which are then related to numerically obtained normal and shear stresses. Finite element analysis on original bone three-dimensional scanned model along with experimental results for investigating the minimum design requirements has not been reported before. Four ceramic coating materials, that is, alumina, CoCrMo, TiN, and zirconia, are discussed for each routine human physical activity. A comprehensive mesh independence study is conducted to ensure that the mesh has no effect on the variation of results. After finite element analysis, it was concluded that the pelvis bone can be taken as a vital bone for recommending design conditions. The finite element results are then coupled with experimental results as the maximum principal stress obtained from the finite element analysis is used to obtain minimum hardness requirements. Similarly, maximum shear stress obtained from the finite element analysis is used to obtain minimum adhesion requirements for three-dimensional printed implants. The coating thickness necessary to obtain minimum hardness and adhesion requirements is then predicted for TiN coating case.

Contact Arc

In this paper, an exclusive testing rig was built to experimentally investigate the friction and slip at elevator traction interface under different traction conditions. The experimental results indicated that slipping occurs at both ends of contact arc first and then expands to the middle region gradually until the full slip along the sheave occurs. In addition, the full slip occurs earlier under lower rope pretension. Meanwhile, by setting similar boundary and loading conditions as in the experiments, the finite element analysis was performed. The simulation results agree with the experiments very well but reveal more details about traction behavior.

Three Dimensional Finite Element

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.

Abstract The finite element method has been used widely in tire engineering. Most tire simulations using the finite element method are static analyses, because tires are very complex nonlinear structures. Recently, transient phenomena have been studied with explicit finite element analysis codes. In this paper, the authors demonstrate the feasibility of tire cornering simulation using an explicit finite element code, PAM-SHOCK. First, we propose the cornering simulation using the explicit finite element analysis code. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed simulation, computed cornering forces for a 175SR14 tire are compared with experimental results from an MTS Flat-Trac Tire Test System. The computed cornering forces agree well with experimental results. After that, parametric studies are conducted by using the proposed simulation.
