The main objective of this study is to analyze the structural response of a boat during a slamming event using the Finite Element Method in a Small Water Area Twin Hull (SWATH) type boat.  In the mentioned load condition, the acceptance criteria established by a classification society must be fulfilled, taking into account the areas where this event affects the structure such as the junction deck, the pontoons and other structural members established by the standard, all this generated by the high pressure loads in the ship's structure in a very short period of time being an element of study in this type of vessels, as long as they are within the range of high speed vessels. Among the main results of this study were the deformations and stresses in the structure obtained under the reference parameters of the classification society.

Combined the analytic method with the finite element method, the data necessary for calculating the heat distribution ratio for high speed cutting was mined first, and the experimental result was used to validate the authenticity of finite element modeling. Then, the ratio of heat distribution for high speed cutting based on the analytic model was obtained by customizing the special subroutine developed by the authors, which provides a new method for calculating the heat distribution.

The deformation of Geneva wheels resulting from a unit normal unit force applied at the point of contact between the driving pin and the wheel is determined using the finite element method. The dynamic and static forces driving the Geneva wheel, and wheel deformations are computed. The output of the flexible Geneva wheel is determined with the help of an interpolating polynomial. An interactive process is used to update the dynamic component of the force based on the computed wheel acceleration values. Results indicate that the output of high speed flexible Geneva wheels is different from that obtained for Geneva mechanism having non-deforming links.

Abstract A cam driving a lumped inertia through an elastic slider-crank follower linkage with a curved beam coupler is considered. An iterative procedure utilizing the finite element method developed by Midha et al. (1978) is used to synthesize the cam profile to produce a desired output motion at a given design speed and damping coefficient. Nonlinear terms are neglected producing inhomogeneous. periodic, linear, ordinary differential equations. Response of the synthesized linkages are simulated and found to be satisfactory at the design conditions.

Abstract The influence of five belt constructions on high speed endurance, ride comfort, and rolling resistance was investigated for a high performance 225/50R16 92V radial passenger car tire, using the finite element method. The belt constructions were combinations of belt edge shapes (cut, folded) and reinforcement materials (steel, aramid). The goal was to find optimized belt constructions for tire weight reduction, considering important tire properties like high speed endurance, ride comfort, and rolling resistance. A full aramid belt construction with a folded belt around a cut belt was chosen for design parameter variation calculations to reduce rolling resistance. This leads to a tire with smaller belt width, increased folding width, additional center cap ply, and reduced non-skid base and depth. The effect of inflation pressure and speed on rolling resistance was evaluated for this construction.

This paper describes the design of a single-phase high-speed flux reversal motor (FRM) for use in a domestic application (vacuum cleaner). This machine has a simple and reliable rotor structure, which is a significant advantage for high-speed applications. An FRM design in which the inner stator surface is entirely used allows it to decrease its volume and increase its efficiency. The mathematical modeling, based on the finite element method, and the optimal design of the high-speed single-phase FRM are described. The criterion of optimization and the selection of a proper optimization algorithm are discussed. Since the finite element method introduces a small but quasi-random error due to round-off accumulation and choosing the mesh, etc., the Nelder-Mead method, not requiring the derivatives calculation, was chosen for the optimization. The target parameter of the optimization is built for the motor efficiency when operating at different loads. Calculations show that the presented approach provides increasing motor efficiency during the optimization, particularly at underload.

The paper deals with the design of the cutting part of complex-profile cutters with high productivity and surface quality. Numerical experiments carried out using the finite element method made it possible to determine the stresses and strains in the layer of the cut material when machining with multifaceted milling cutters of a new type and indirectly estimate the specific cutting forces. The required dimensions and shape of the cutting wedge are set with account for various geometric parameters of the cutting part, properties of the workpiece material, and cutting conditions. This made it possible to obtain a three-dimensional model of an end mill with a trapezoidal tooth and 700 cutting edges. Experimental studies also showed a change in the morphology of chips with a size of about 2 microns, which is in good agreement with the results of preliminary estimates by the finite element method. The productivity of processing with milling cutters of a new design can be improved by increasing the number of single cutting cycles up to4000–6000 s–1.

A cam driving a lumped inertia through an elastic slider-crank follower linkage with its actuator, a D. C. motor, has been considered in this work. An iterative procedure utilizing the finite element method developed by Midha et al. (1978) is used to synthesize the cam profile to produce a desired output motion at a given design speed and damping ratio. The elastic deflections induced by the large inertia of the linkage operating at a fluctuated high speed of the driving cam are taken into account in synthesizing the cam profile. Responses of the synthesized linkages are simulated and found to be satisfactory at the design conditions.
