Monolithic integrated μLED optrode has promising applications in optogenetics due to their ability to achieve more optical channels in a smaller footprint. The current used to drive the μLED will cause electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise to the recording electrodes at a very close distance. Utilizing a grounded metal shielding layer between the active device and the electrode can potentially reduce the interference. In this paper, multi-dimensional μLED optrode models are set up according to the real device. By numerically analyzing the electromagnetic interference between the μLED and recording electrodes, several optimized shielding schemes are evaluated by simulations and experiments. Some important process and layout parameters that may influence the shielding effect are studied through the finite element method (FEM). Different circuit models based on the corresponding test environment are built to analyze the simulation and experiment results. A new PCB with a shielding layer has been designed and initially verified. The proposed novel computational model can analyze EMI quantitatively, which could facilitate the design of low-noise μLED optrode with reasonable shielding and packaging.

This note is specifically concerned with cracks emanating from a quarter-spherical cavity on the edge in an elastic body (see Fig.1) by using finite element method. The numerical results show that the existence of the cavity has a shielding effect of the corner crack. In addition, it is found that the effect of boundaries parallel to the crack on the SIFs is obvious when.H/R≤3

In this paper the reduction analysis of the so-called ‘booming noise’, which occurs due to the resonance of a vehicle cabin, is tried to carry out by using the finite element method. For the reduction method a Helmholtz resonator, which is well known in the field of acoustics, is attached to a vehicle cabin. The resonance frequency of a Helmholtz resonator can be varied by adjusting the length of its throat. The simply shaped Helmholtz resonator is set up to the back of the cabin according to the resonance frequency of the cabin and the frequency response of the sound pressure at a driver’s ear position is calculated by using the finite element method. It is confirmed that the acoustical characteristics of the cabin is changed largely by attaching the resonator and the sound quality is quite varied. The resonance frequency of the resonator can be considered to follow the acoustical characteristics of the cabin by using an Origami structure as a throat. So, in the future the analysis by using an Origami structure Helmholtz resonator should be performed.

Contact problem, which exists widely in mechanical engineering, civil engineering, manufacturing engineering, etc., is an extremely complicated nonlinear problem. It is usually solved by the finite element method. Unlike with the traditional finite element method, it is necessary to set up contact elements for the contact analysis. In the different types of contact elements, the Goodman joint elements, which cover the surface of contacted bodies with zero thickness, are widely used. However, there are some debates on the characteristics of the attached elements of the Goodman joint elements. For that this paper studies the type, matching, and meshing of the attached elements. The results from this paper would be helpful for the finite element contact analysis.

Autofrettage is a metal working process of inducing compressive residual stresses in the vicinity of the inner surface of a thick-walled cylindrical or spherical pressure vessel for increasing its pressure capacity, fatigue life, and stress-corrosion resistance. The hydraulic autofrettage is a class of autofrettage processes, in which the vessel is pressurized using high hydraulic pressure to cause the partial plastic deformation followed by unloading. Despite its popularity, the requirement of high pressure makes this process costly. On the other hand, the thermal autofrettage is a simple method, in which the residual stresses are set up by first maintaining a temperature difference across the thickness of the vessel and then cooling it to uniform temperature. However, the increase in the pressure carrying capacity in thermal autofrettage process is lesser than that in the hydraulic autofrettage. In the present work, a combined hydraulic and thermal autofrettage process of a thick-walled cylinder is studied using finite element method package ABAQUS® for aluminum and SS304 steel. The strain-hardening and Bauschinger effects are considered and found to play significant roles. The results show that the combined autofrettage can achieve desired increase in the pressure capacity of thick-walled cylinders with relatively small autofrettage pressure. For example, in a SS304 cylinder of wall-thickness ratio of 3, an autofrettage pressure of 150 MPa enhances the pressure capacity by 41%, but the same pressure with a 36 °C higher inner surface temperature than outer surface temperature can enhance the pressure capacity by 60%.

In order to fix on the inner connection of modification coefficient and bend strength, the static analysis of profile-shifted gear is made by applying Finite Element Method, then regression equation that revealed the relation between modification coefficient and bend strength is set up according to the Similarity Theory. Given bend stress of a standard gear, the bend stress of any profile-shifted gear with the same teeth can be calculated from the equation.

This paper reports an examination of the stresses and pressure fields set up at various cross-sections of a material during forging operation by the weighted residual finite element method. We present the numerical solution to the one-dimensional differential equation which describes the pressures and stresses exerted on a forging. In conducting the analysis, we split the blank into a finite number of elements and apply the Bubnov-Galerkin weighted residual scheme to obtain the weighted integral form; the finite element model is then developed from this weighted integral form which is solved to yield a three-parameter polynomial solution. Using series of examples, we show that the weighted residual finite element method is capable of accurately predicting the pressures and stresses in an open die forging operation.

In order to improve the riveting precision, the finite element method and topological optimization design based on the variable density method were employed to design the pedestal of horizontal rocket rivet fixture. Topological optimization model was set up based on static analysis of the original designed pedestal under various typical load cases. Topological optimization results of various load cases were compared with original pedestal. The result showed deficiencies of the original pedestal, and a new model was built based on topological optimization results. The analysis of topological model was carried out by applying the finite element method. The results show that the stiffness of pedestal was remarkably improved; the stress distribution was more homogenized and the displacement of the guide rail was decreased after optimization. This method could also provide reference and guidance for designing other complicated structures.

Taking Yujiang River Bridge on Nanning-Guangzhou railway line as study background, the refined numerical simulation model of whole vehicle and whole bridge system for coupled vibration analysis is set up. The dynamic analysis model of the cable-stayed bridge is established by finite element method, and the natural vibration properties of the bridge are analyzed. The German ICE Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) train refined three-dimensional space vehicle model is set up by multi-system dynamics software SIMPACK, and the multiple non-linear properties are considered. The space vibration responses are calculated by co-simulation based on multi-body system dynamics and finite element method when the ICE EMU train passes the long span cable-stayed bridge at different speeds. In order to test if the bridge has the sufficient lateral or vertical rigidity and the operation stability is fine. The calculation results show: The operation safety can be guaranteed, and comfort index is “excellent”. The bridge has sufficient rigidity, and vibration is in good condition.

The internal combustion engine is the major source responsible for noise pollution. In an engine, the exhaust noise and the noise produced due to friction of various parts of the engine share maximum contribution to noise pollution. A muffler is a device used to reduce noise within the exhaust system. It is arranged along the exhaust pipe for the purpose of noise attenuation. In this article, the set up for experimental analysis is developed to predict the acoustic performance of reactive muffler using the two-load method, and it is validated by measuring transmission loss of known reactive muffler model by using finite element method. For the model, transmission loss obtained from experimental analysis was compared with that obtained from the finite element method. From the result, it can be concluded that the setup developed for experimental analysis is reliable to determine transmission loss of exhaust muffler, for low to mid frequency range.

Finite element method is increasingly used in the analysis of aircraft structures, including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The structural model used for finite element analysis however needs to be validated in order to ensure that it correctly represents the physical behaviour of the actual structure. In this work, a case study of a straight, unswept and untapered wing structure made of composite material subjected to aerodynamic loading was modelled and analysed using finite element method. Four-noded, reduced integration shell elements were used, with structural components attached by adhesive joints modelled using tied surface constraints. For the validation process an experimental set-up of the actual wing was loaded using sandbags to simulate the aerodynamic loads. The deflection of the wing at three key locations were obtained and compared between both methods. It was found that the difference between both results ranges between 0.3% (at the tip) to 36.1% (near the root, for small deflections).
