The article presents the results of work on an effective numerical study of selected transient states of a low-power electrical machine. The object of detailed research was a synchronized squirrel-cage induction motor. Its ability to work at a synchronous speed was enabled by obtaining reluctance torque, caused by an imposed asymmetry between the direct and quadrature reluctances of the rotor. The difference between the reluctances was achieved by changing the rotor geometry by milling additional deep grooves. The modifications of the rotor did not damage the continuity of the rotor cage. Imposed lots were arranged symmetrically around the rotor circumference. In order to study the performance of the modified motor, a parameterized, numerical model of the machine was developed to evaluate the impact of the geometry of the slots. The developed three dimensional (3D) model of the electromagnetic phenomena in the studied magnetic circuit employs the finite element method (FEM). The model takes into account the saturation of the machine’s magnetic circuit and the skew of the rotor cage bars as well as the mechanical equilibrium of the terrain system including the moment of inertia and frictional torque in the bearings as well as the load torque resulting from the operation of the internal fan. The simulation study concerned the starting process of the machine under different values of the load. The influence of the supply voltage phase angle at the moment of start-up and the initial position of the rotor in relation to the stator was investigated. In order to calibrate the model, tests of the physical object were performed. The corrections introduced concerned the magnetization characteristics of the magnetic circuit. The results obtained confirm the correctness of the adopted strategy of testing the operational properties of the considered engine.

In the context of increasing the electronic components integration level, growing functionality and packaging density, as well as reducing the electronics weight and size, an integrated approach to engineering calculations of parts and assemblies of modern functionally and technically complex microelectronic products is required. Of particular importance are engineering calculations and structural modeling using computer-aided engineering systems, and also assessment of structural, technological and operational factors’ impact on the products reliability and performance. This work presents an approach to engineering calculations and microelectronic products modeling based on the finite-element method providing a comprehensive account of various factors (material properties, external loading, temperature fields, and other parameters) impact on the stress-strain state, mechanical strength, thermal condition, and other characteristics of products. On the example of parts and assemblies of products of microelectronic technology, the approximation of structures was shown and computer finite-element models were developed to study various structural and technological options of products and the effects on them. Engineering calculations and modeling of parts and assemblies were performed, taking into account the impact of material properties, design parameters and external influences on the products’ characteristics. Scientific and technical recommendations for structure optimization and design and technology solutions ensuring the products resistance to diverse effects were developed. It has been shown that an integrated approach to engineering calculations and microelectronic products modeling based on the finite-element method provides for the determination of optimal solutions taking into account structural, technological, and operational factors and allows the development of products with high tactical, technical and operational characteristics.

In rotating elastic rods, dispersions occurs as the result of the finite rotations. By using Fourier method, it can be shown that the impact-induced longitudinal waves no longer travel with the same phase velocities. Furthermore, the speeds of the wave propagation are independent of the impact conditions including the value of the coefficient of restitution. In this investigation the use of the finite element method in the analysis of impact-induced longitudinal waves in rotating elastic rods is examined. The equations of motion are developed using the principle of virtual work in dynamics. Jump discontinuity in the system velocity vector as result of impact is predicted using the generalized impulse momentum equations. The solution obtained using the finite element method is compared with the solution obtained using Fourier method. Numerical results show that there is a good agreement between the solution obtained by using Fourier method and the finite element solution in the analysis of wave motion. However, discrepancies between the two solutions in the analysis of the velocity waves are observed and discussed in this paper.

In the article, the modeling of the impact of hold-down forces on the accuracy of the shape of the workpiece using the finite element method was carried out. The operation of mechanical processing (turning cut) of a workpiece of the body of rotation type on a milling machine with basing and fixing along the inner cylindrical surface of the workpiece is considered. The study was conducted for four different types of machine retaining devices used on machines of this group. A consistent description and illustration of the method of modeling the process of the impact of hold-down forces on the workpiece is made for each type of the device under consideration. The force constraints and effects imposed on the model are described and illustrated, the parameters of the finite element grid used in modeling are presented, the displacement profiles obtained in the modeling process and the stages of modeling the machining process are described, and the values of the largest deviations from the shape of the workpiece are determined. The results of the modeling are presented: a qualitative picture of the shape errors obtained as a result of mechanical processing — the values of the largest deviation from the roundness and the largest deviation from the cross-section profile of the workpiece to be processed, as well as the shape of the cutting obtained in the cross-section of the workpiece for each type of the devices under consideration. On the basis of the obtained results, estimates of the degree of accuracy of the shape and the relative geometric accuracy provided by the considered devices were made in accordance with GOST 24643–81. The conclusion is made about the suitability of using the considered variants of machine retaining devices for the proposed technological process according to the criterion of the provided accuracy of the shape of the processed surface.

A method for calculating the dynamic response of deformable axisymmetric solids, subjected to time-dependent axisymmetric loads is described. The nonlinearities considered in this analysis include material nonlinearity (elastic-plastic behavior) and geometric nonlinearity, which includes finite deformation. The finite-element method is applied to approximate the continuum by a lumped-mass system connected by axisymmetric elements. The equations of motion are solved by applying a step-by-step numerical technique. The analysis is illustrated by application to the collapse of a built-in spherical dome with varying thickness and to the impact of a cylinder against a rigid wall. Close agreement is obtained between the results from the present technique and results obtained from the literature.
