A locomotive is one of critical part in train set, because a locomotive had to bear a big load and has operational time which long enough. So in a locomotive design required more in depth analysis compared to the other means of transportation. The purpose of this research is to make a design locomotive carbody according to those standards applied and analyze stress happened to carbody locomotive designed. In the design of this to analyze carbody locomotive construction strength, the analysis are done using finite element methode(FEM) with help of Ansys software. The simulation of loads working on the structure was made approaching the real loading. Structure of locomotive carbody should be able to hold the loads working on carbody construction. From the design results locomotive carbody that have been made, this locomotive carbody sized length 19000 mm, width 2790 mm, and high 3700 mm. Materials that used for the locomotive carbody design isSS 400 and SM 490A with Yield stress of 245 MPa dan 325 MPa. The analysis results received a value of von mises stress maximum of 195,429 MPa that occurs at the part of the end of underframe (end center sill), where the sress value are still below of Yield stress materials which are in the form of SM 490 at 325 MPa. From the analysis result suggests that overall locomotive carbody structure can be expressed as safe and able to hold the loads operational.

We design and analyze a kind of oblique-cone-slid-ring (OCSR) assembly seal device used in carbide actor that can self-compensate the seal wear. The effect of the OCSR thickness variation on the contact stress, Von mises stress, and spring force is analyzed using ANSYS software. It shows that the OCSR assembly seal device can seal well and has the function of self-compensation to seal wear when the OCSR thickness vary during the experiment conditions given. The max contact stress on the seal surface and other contact face is higher or much higher than the work stress of sealed medium. That means the design is satisfied with the user demand. The results provide a theoretical base for the further study and applications of the OCSR assembly seal device.

In this work, the effect of the boronizing thermochemical treatment on the adherence and surface morphology of the boride layer formed in DIN UC1 steel was evaluated. The process was carried out by packing at the temperature of 1273 K, at the times of 4800, 6000, 7200 and 14400 seconds. The HRC adherence test based on the VDI 1398 standard, was simulated in COMSOL 5.0®; analysing the effect of the thickness of the boride layer and the roughness on the Von Mises stress, in addition to the stress on the indentation footprint; in which it was observed that by increasing the thickness of the layer from 22.2 to 37.8 µm the stresses increased, and therefore the adhesion of the layer on the substrate improved, which causes only the formation of microcracks. On the other hand, in the greater layer thickness (60.04 µm) the layer delaminates. Therefore, for an industrial application of DIN UC1 steel treated thermochemically by borurization, layer thicknesses up to 37.8 µm are recommended.

This article analyzes an olive oil mill formed of four conical stones used in the milling of the olive. To this end, a study of computer-aided engineering (CAE) was carried out using the parametric software Autodesk Inventor Professional, consisting of a static analysis using the finite-element method (FEM) of the three-dimensional (3D) model of the mill under real operating conditions. The results obtained revealed that the conical stones mill was a very robust machine. When studying the assembly in the most unfavorable situation (blockage of one of its millstones), we observed that the element with the highest von Mises stress was the bearing nut, reaching a value of 263.9 MPa, which was far from the elastic limit of cast iron (758 MPa). On the other hand, the machine hardly presented any equivalent deformations or displacements that could jeopardize the operation as a whole. The maximum displacement obtained was 2.494 mm in the inertia flywheel, and the equivalent deformations did not reach 0.1% of the part dimension. Similarly, the element with the lowest safety coefficient (2.87) was the same bearing nut with the highest von Mises stress, although the next element with the second lowest safety coefficient had a value of 8.69, which showed that the set was clearly oversized. These results demonstrate the convenience of redesigning the set in order to resize some of its elements, and that they could have lower safety coefficients of between 2 and 4. After an initial analysis, the resizable elements would fundamentally be those related to the movement transmission system and the frame structure.

Background: The introduction of modified thread designs is one of the research areas of interest in the dental implantology field. Two suggested Buttress and Reverse Buttress thread designs in TiG5 and TiG4 models are tested against a standard TiG5 Fin Thread design (IBS®). Purpose: The study aims to compare stress distribution around the suggested designs and Fin Thread design. Methods: Three dental implant models: Fin Thread design, and newly suggested Buttress and Reverse Buttress designs of both TiG5 and TiG4 models were tested using FEA for stress distribution using static (70N, 0°) and (400N, 30°) occlusal loads. Results: The main difference between the suggested Buttress design and Fin Thread design lies in the overload (400N, 30°) condition. Maximum Von Mises stress is less in Buttress design than Fin Thread design. On the other hand the level of Von Mises stress over the buccolingual slop of the cancellous bone in Fin Thread design liess within the lowest stress level. The suggested Reverse Buttress design, on the other hand showed almost uniform stress distribution in both TiG4 and TiG4 models with maximum Von Mises stress higher than the elastic modulus of cancellous bone in overload (400N, 30°) condition. Conclusion: The suggested TiG4 Buttress design might have a minor advantage of stress level in cases of stress overload. In contrast, Fin Thread design shows minimal stress over the buccolingual slop of the cancellous bone. The suggested Reverse Buttress design might be more suitable for the D1 bone quality region with the advantage of almost uniform stress distribution

The overall goal of this research is to develop design optimization methodologies for compliant mechanisms that will provide passive shape change. Our previous work has focused on designing two separate contact-aided compliant elements (CCE): one for bend-and-sweep deflections, called the bend-and-sweep compliant element (BSCE), and another for twist deflection, called the twist compliant element (TCE). In the current paper, all three degrees of freedom, namely bending, twist, and sweep, are achieved simultaneously using a single passive contact-aided compliant mechanism. A new objective function for a contact-aided compliant mechanism is introduced and the results of the optimization procedure are presented. A bend-twist-and-sweep compliant element (BTSCE) can be inserted into the leading edge spar of an ornithopter, which is an avian-scale flapping wing un-manned air vehicle. The multiple objective functions of the optimization problem presented in this paper are: for upstroke, maximize tip bending and sweep deflections, maximize twist angle, and minimize the mass and peak von Mises stress in the BTSCE, and for downstroke, minimize tip bending and sweep deflections, minimize twist angle, and minimize the mass and peak von Mises stress in the BTSCE. This allows a designer to select a CCE from a set of optimal designs to accomplish all three displacement goals. The BTSCE was modeled using a commercial finite element program and optimized using NSGA-II, a genetic algorithm. The results for a single angled compliant joint (ACJ) for quasi-static upstroke loading conditions are presented. Two optimal designs are discussed and compared, one with a moderate peak stress and moderate deflections, the other with a high peak stress and large deflections. The optimization results are then compared to the previous results for the two independent CCEs. A design study showed that the angle of the ACJ needs to be obtuse to achieve a positive twist angle during upstroke, and an acute contact angle reduces peak stress. The deflection objective functions were relatively insensitive to eccentricity for upstroke and downstroke compared to the other parameters, and a high stress penalty was paid for any gains in deflection. The downstroke objective functions were relatively insensitive to all parameters compared to the upstroke objective functions, and were much smaller in magnitude. The optimization showed that under simplified upstroke loading conditions, the BTSCE with a single ACJ allowed bending deflection near 30% of the length of the BTSCE, twist angle near 0.14 radians, and sweep deflection near 5% of the length of the BTSCE.

Abstract In this study, the production and analysis of a composite vessel were performed. The materials selected for the design of the composite materials were glass fiber/epoxy, carbon fiber/epoxy and Kevlar fiber/epoxy material. Anti-symmetric orientation angles of (30°-30°), (45°-45°), (60°-60°) and (75°-75°) were used for each material. In the design of the vessel, the total thickness of the wall is defined as 3 mm. The containers were modeled using the SOLIDWORKS package program with the wall thickness of 10 and 20 layers. The containers modeled are then analyzed to determine maximum deformation and maximum stress by using the ANSYS WORKBENCH 14.0 package program which analyzes according to the finite element method. While making solutions, a pressure of 1.65 MPa as the test pressure of the vessel was defined as hydrostatic from the inner surface of the vessel, and von-Mises stress and total deformations were determined. As a result of this study, it has been determined that a 60°-60° orientation angle is the most appropriate design angle considering both the deformation values and maximum stress. Maximum stress in the design of composite containers was far below the flow limit and remained within acceptable limits for shape changes.

The results of a finite element analysis of a trilobe polygon shaft connection used as an alternative for a spline for torque transmission is presented. These results are compared to the results of a finite element analysis previously performed on an involute spline. It is shown that the tensile stress in the polygon shaft is significantly smaller than in the involute spline and is smaller than all the other stresses in both the shaft and the hub in the polygon connection. Furthermore, the magnitudes and distributions of the maximum principal compressive stress, the shear stress, and the Von Mises stress are nearly the same on the shaft and the hub. It appears that polygonal connections can be more advantageous than splined connections because of lower stresses and the lack of stress concentrations typical of splines. [S1050-0472(00)00601-2]

Stent treatment has revealed safe and efficient outcomes for straight arteries, while it is still challenging for curved coronary arteries. On the one hand, a stent should be flexible enough to take the artery’s curvature with the least stress to the artery wall. On the other hand, it has to be strong enough to prevent any artery diameter reduction after the implant. In this work, the genetic algorithm multi-objective optimization method is exploited to provide a Pareto set and to design a curvature stent. The design has been performed based on the appropriate flexibility and radial strength design, depending on the characteristics of a particular case study. In the optimization procedure, flexibility and radial strength have been evaluated based on ASTM standard mechanical tests. These tests have been parametrically simulated using the finite element method. The strut curvature is formed by the spline curvature, whose middle point coordinates are two of the optimization variables. The other optimization variable is the thickness of the stent. Based on the Pareto set achieved from the optimization, five different stent designs have been proposed. In these designs, the middle part of the stent is stiffer (in the plaque aggregated) and benefits more radial strength rather than flexibility. At the stent’s extremes, where more deformation takes place, flexibility is weighted more than radial strength. These five design sets differ in their objective weight ratios. At the end of this research, their implementation in a curved vessel is simulated in ABAQUS/CAE, and von Mises stress distribution, maximum von Mises stress, and stent recoil after imposing the stent have been analyzed. The obtained Pareto front can also be a useful guide for physicians to design and manufacture customized stents for each patient.

ABSTRACTVarious low-k materials are being pursued as dielectric materials for future interconnects. However, poor thermo-mechanical properties of low-k materials cause tremendous reliability concerns, thus the proper materials for integration with Cu are not suggested yet. In this study, the line width and spacing dependence of damascene Cu lines embedded by TEOS and low-k materials (CORAL) was analyzed using x-ray diffraction. Generally, the hydrostatic stress of Cu/TEOS was greater than that of Cu/CORAL, while the opposite for von-Mises stress. Using a three-dimensional finite analysis (FEA), the effect of low-k materials on the stress and its distribution in via-line structures of dual damascene Cu interconnects was studied. In the case of Cu/TEOS, the hydrostatic stress was concentrated at the via and on the top of the lines, where it was suspected that the void would nucleate. On the other hand, in the via-line structures integrated with organic low-k materials, large von-Mises stress was maintained in the via. Therefore, the deformation of via, rather than voiding, may be the main failure mode in the interconnects with low-k materials.

A failure characteristic investigation is carried out on a constant forcespring (CFS) (also known as flat spiral spring) fitted in a counterweight balancingmechanism. A SolidWorksSimulation Softwarewas used to performed the static and fatigue test. Based on the simulation results, the maximum Von Mises stress obtained is 455.6 MPa which is less thanthe yield stress, Sy of the material which is520 MPa. The minimum life of the CFS obtained from simulation and analytical fatigue analysis are 4,991cycles and 4,185 cycles respectively. The maximum operating torque applied to the CFS is 62.672 Nmm which corresponds to the position when the CFS is fully deflected. These is much lower than maximum design torque, which is calculated to be 1,335,496.2 Nmm. This shows that the torque applied to the CFS in the counterweight balancing mechanism is acceptable.
