The finite element model of NJP3226X1 cylindrical roller bearings was established by ABAQUS software, and the contact stress distribution of three kinds of modification curve(linear, circular-arc, logarithmic) were compared. The results showed that the maximal contact stress of logarithmic modified roller is the minimum, its stress distribute uniformly, and obvious stress concentration phenomenon does not exist, next is circular-arc modified roller, which stress at the two ends is too small and the stress in the middle is large, linear roller has the highest contact stress, and there is an obvious stresses concentration phenomenon at both ends. Through the analysis of the contact stress distribution of the logarithmic shaped roller under different repair quantities, the reasonable repair quantities are obtained.

With the rapid development of high-speed machining technology, more and more machining centers have been equipped with the HSK toolholders. In this paper, the performances of the HSK spindle/toolholder interface, such as the axial movement, the radial deflection and the contact stress distribution, were simulated by means of the finite element method and compared with the traditional BT interface. From the simulated results, it was pointed out that the performances of the HSK interface were obviously superior to that of the BT interface, and the HSK interface was much more suitable for high-speed machining.

According to the theory of contact mechanics, the radial stiffness, the maximum contact stress, and the maximum radial load of pre-loaded cylindrical roller bearings, including both solid roller and hollow roller bearings, are calculated with the finite element method. The effects of load on the radial stiffness, the maximum contact stress, and the maximum radial load of bearing are analyzed. The analysis results show that the effect of load on the radial stiffness is complex. Under the different magnitude loads, the effects of both hollowness and interference magnitude on the radial stiffness and on the maximum contact stress are not same. Thus the effects of load magnitude must be considered in the design and application of pre-loaded cylindrical roller bearings.

This study was undertaken to analytically investigate factors which influence the performance of the HSK toolholder-spindle connection. The change of contact area and the contact stress distribution of HSK-A63 toolholder-spindle interface were analyzed with the finite element software ANSYS. The analysis results showed that the contact area and contact stress are significantly affected by clamping force and spindle speed, and that enough magnitude of interference can offset the gap between spindle and toolholder under high rotational speed and also affect the clamping force assigned to the flange face.

The impeller mounted onto the compressor shaft assembly via interference fit is one of the key components of a centrifugal compressor stage. A suitable fit tolerance needs to be considered in the structural design. A locomotive-type turbocharger compressor with 24 blades under combined centrifugal and interference-fit loading was considered in the numerical analysis. The FE parametric quadratic programming (PQP) method which was developed based on the parametric variational principle (PVP) was used for the analysis of stress distribution of 3D elastoplastic frictional contact of impeller-shaft sleeve-shaft. The solution of elastoplastic frictional contact problems belongs to the unspecified boundary problems where the interaction between two kinds of nonlinearities should occur. The effect of fit tolerance, rotational speed and the contact stress distribution on the contact stress was discussed in detail in the numerical computation. The study play a referenced role in deciding the proper fit tolerance and improving design and manufacturing technology of compressor impellers.

The relative strain effects of 15 different load configurations were studied. Using the linear tracking device (LINTRACK) accelerated loading facility, two 5-year-old pavements of 0.15-m asphalt on sand (one virgin and one loaded with 4 million 75-kN wheel loads) were tested. All measured strains were converted to strain factors relative to a standard load (super-single tire, 50 kN, 0.70 MPa). The results were compared with earlier measurements and BISAR-calculated factors. The results on the loaded pavement showed markedly more variation than those on the unloaded pavement. Generally, the BISAR-calculated relative strain factors matched the measured values well for the super-single tire. Considerable difference occurred only in the most extreme load conditions. Nonuniform contact stress distribution can be the cause for this. The calculated relative strain factors for the dual tire configurations underestimated the measured values.

Cable-stayed and extra-dosed bridges are today widely used bridge types. Recently, saddles have been used to deviate strands of cables in the pylons. Up to now the mechanics of strands on saddles are not well understood. It was found, that typical longitudinal contact stress distributions between strand and saddle show a strong nonlinearity and a high peak value around the detachment point, where the strand meets the saddle. This paper presents a procedure to analyse the longitudinal contact stress distribution obtained by FEM calculations: This contact stress can be idealised as a constant contact stress according to the Barlow's formula and a contact force at the detachment point due to the flexural rigidity of the bent tension elements. An analytical model is provided to verify this contact force. Finally, a formula is presented to calculate the maximum contact stress. This study provides the basis for further research on saddle design and fatigue of strands.
