Statics and frequency analyzes are important because the structure can support the static and dynamic loads. Most studies about the statics and frequency are not included the gravity load. The previous studies of gravity effect to the cantilever beam included the hanging, horizontal, and inverted positions. The gravity load direction is applied referred to the longitudinal and lateral beam directions in this study. The closer to the inverted position the smaller the natural frequency. The highest values of the maximum displacement and the maximum Von-Mises stress are happened if longitudinal position is horizontal and lateral orientation angle is 0°. The change of lateral orientation angle does not influence the natural frequency in this condition. Keywords—Cantilever beam, gravity load, natural frequency, orientation angle, statics

This work aims towards the design and optimization of the drive shaft as there is increasing demand for weight reduction in an automobile vehicle. The drive shaft is basically a torque transmitting element which transmit the torque from the differential gearbox to the respective wheels. In general, the drive shafts are subjected to fluctuating loads as the torque requirement changes according to the road conditions. Due to this, the drive shaft should be designed considering fatigue failure. The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga model is chosen for design and optimization of the drive shaft. For the fatigue life predicting of the drive shaft, the S-N curve approach is used. Furthermore, the inner diameter of the shaft is varied to obtain the optimized diameter of a hollow shaft which can withstand these fluctuating loads without failure. Along with fatigue life prediction, the natural frequency of the hollow shaft is also calculated. Furthermore, the parametric analysis is carried out of fatigue FOS, Von mises stress, weight and natural frequency of the shaft by varying the diameter ratio of the hollow shaft, and the nature of variation of these parameters are plotted in their respective graphs. The design is validated by performing FEA analysis for each case of a hollow shaft using Ansys software. Finally, from the FEA analysis we conclude that the optimized dimensions of the hollow drive shaft are safe.

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.

The aerodynamic and mechanical performance of the last stage was numerically investigated using three-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) solution and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) coupled with the one-way and two-way fluid-structure interaction models in this work. The part-span damping snubber and tip damping shroud of the rotor blade and aerodynamic pressure on rotor blade mechanical performance was considered in the one-way model. The two-way fluid-structure interaction model coupled with the mesh deformation technology was conducted to analyze the aerodynamic and mechanical performance of the last stage rotor blade. One-way fluid-structure interaction model numerical results show that the location of nodal maximum displacement moves from leading edge of 85% blade span to the trailing edge of 85% blade span. The position of nodal maximum Von Mises stress is still located at the first tooth upper surface near the leading edge at the blade root of pressure side. The two-way fluid-structure interaction model results show that the variation of static pressure distribution on long blade surface is mostly concentrated at upper region, absolute outflow angle of long blade between the 40% span and 95% span reduces, the location of nodal maximum displacement appears at the trailing edge of 85% blade span. Furthermore, the position of nodal maximum Von Mises stress remains the same and the value decreases compared to the oneway fluid-structure model results.

The main components of the opposed biconinal cone screw high-pressure seawater hydraulic pump is the rubber bush and metal cone screw, and the interaction of the bush and cone screw is one of the main factors affecting the novel pump performance. The deformation and stress of the bush and cone screw under the initial interference is analyzed by the nonlinear finite element analysis. The analysis shows that: under the effect of the initial interference, large displacement is present to the radial surface of the cone screw, and the displacement of the radial surface mainly affects the displacement vector sum of the cone screw, and the deformation decreases gradually from the middle to the ends of the cone screw, while the cone screw is bending; the deformation in three direction of the bush is close to each other, but the location of the maximum displacement in each direction is different; with the shrink range increasing, the deformation of the cone screw and bush increases, but the deformation of the cone screw is much smaller than that of bush, so the deformation of the bush mainly affects the seal between the cone screw and bush, and the shrink range between the cone screw and bush decreases because of the deformation of the bush. Over the role of the interference force, the maximum von mises stress of the cone screw is an order larger than that of bush, and the maximum von mises stress both increases with the shrink range increasing; although shrink range is different, the location of the maximum von mises about the cone screw and bush is the same.

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.

Abstract Background Patients with a lateral femoral wall (LFW) fracture were reported to have high rates of re-operation and complication. Although the LFW thickness was a reliable predictor of post-operative or intra-operative LFW fracture, no biomechanical studies had evaluated the critical stress distributions on the femur and screws of intertrochanteric fractures treated with dynamic hip screw (DHS). This study aimed to investigate the biomechanical performance of intertrochanteric fractures with different LFW thickness treated with DHS device.Methods A three-dimensional model of the proximal femur was established by computed tomography images. The intertrochanteric fracture model with three different LFW thickness (10mm, 20.5mm and 30mm respectively) was created, which was fixed by DHS. The von Mises stress on the proximal femur, lateral femoral wall, DHS and the total displacement of the device components were evaluated and compared for three different LFW thickness model.Results The maximum von Mises stress in the proximal fragment of the 10mm and 20.5mm model increased by 80.56% and 57.97% when compared with the 30mm model. The peek von Mises stress around the blade entry point of the 10mm and 20.5mm model increased by 89.26% and 66.39% when compared with the 30mm model. The peek von Mises in the DHS located near the junction of the barrel and side plate of each model and the 30mm model had the smallest von Mises stress compared with the other two models. Furthermore, the maximum displacement in the 30mm model was much smaller than that in the10mm model and 20mm model.Conclusions The intertrochanteric fracture with a thinner LFW tended to have a higher risk of LFW fracture stabilized by a DHS device. Thus, the intertrochanteric fractures with a thinner LFW should not be treated by DHS alone and the intramedullary nail or an addition of trochanteric stabilization plate(TSP) was recommended.

This paper aims to identify an optimum bone fracture stabilizer. For this purpose, three design variables including the ratio of the screw diameter to the plate width at three levels, the ratio of the plate thickness to the plate width at three levels, and the diameter of the bone at two levels were selected for analysis. Eighteen 3D verified finite element models were developed to examine the effects of these parameters on the weight, maximum displacement and maximum von Mises stress of the fixation structure. Considering the relations between the inputs and outputs using multivariate regression, a genetic algorithm was used to find the optimal choices. Results showed that the diameter of the bone and the amount of load applied on it did not have a significant effect on the normalized stresses on the structures. Furthermore, in all ratio of the plate thickness to the plate width, as the ratio of the screw diameter to the plate width increased, the amount of stress on the structure decreased. But, by further increasing the ratio of the screw diameter to the plate width, the amount of stress on the structure increased. On the other hand, by increasing the value of the ratio of the plate thickness to the plate width, the maximum amount of stress on the structure decreased. Finally, optimal solutions in terms of the weight and the maximum amount of stress on the structure were presented.

Purpose. A hybrid pedicle screw system for minimally invasive spinal fixation was developed based on the uniplanar pedicle screw construct and a new intermediate screw. Its biomechanical performance was evaluated using finite element (FE) analysis. Methods. A T12-L2 FE model was established to simulate the L1 vertebral compression fracture with Magerl classification A1.2. Six fixation models were developed to simulate the posterior pedicle screw fracture fixation, which were divided into two subgroups with different construct configurations: (1) six-monoaxial/uniplanar/polyaxial pedicle screw constructs and (2) four-monoaxial/uniplanar/polyaxial pedicle screw constructs with the new intermediate screw. After model validation, flexion, extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation with 7.5 Nm moments and preloading of 500 N vertical compression were applied to the FE models to compare the biomechanical performances of the six fixation models with maximum von Mises stress, range of motion, and maximum displacement of the vertebra. Results. Under four loading scenarios, the maximum von Mises stresses were found to be at the roots of the upper or lower pedicle screws. In the cases of flexion, lateral bending, and axial rotation, the maximum von Mises stress of the uniplanar screw construct lay in between the monoaxial and polyaxial screw constructs in each subgroup. Considering lateral bending, the uniplanar screw construct enabled to lower the maximum von Mises stress than monoaxial and polyaxial pedicle screw constructs in each subgroup. Two subgroups showed comparable results of the maximum von Mises stress on the endplates, range of motion of T12-L1, and maximum displacement of T12 between the corresponding constructs with the new intermediate screw or not. Conclusions. The observations shown in this study verified that the hybrid uniplanar pedicle screw system exhibited comparable biomechanical performance as compared with other posterior short-segment constructs. The potential advantage of this new fixation system may provide researchers and clinical practitioners an alternative for minimally invasive spinal fixation with vertebral augmentation.

This paper presents a novel structure of the dry coal separator with vibration fluidized bed and analyzed the dynamic characteristics of the vibration parts. The natural frequency, natural mode of vibration and dynamic response are calculated based on the finite element method. The results show that the natural frequency is far from working frequency, so that the structure can avoid resonance frequency effectively. The maximum von Mises stress is 0.01MPa which are allowed in the working condition.
