Currently a large number of hand injuries occur in the Mexican population, mainly caused by accidents at work and in sports activities. To help the population have access to a brachiopalmar rehabilitation, In this work it was proposed to develop a rehabilitative prototype “dynamic hand orthosis” to address the main pathologies that affect our society (fractures, dislocations, sprains, tendonitis and sx of the carpal tunnel). The design was analyzed in a finite element for its validation, having a safety factor of 2.6 and a maximum tension of 12.84 MPa below the ABS elastic limit, Manufacturing was done using a 3D printer with the ABS filament. This orthosis has an extensor finger attachment composed of hammocks, one for each finger. Due to its universal design, it can be used for both hands only by exchanging the extension of the thumb.

The effect of initial forces on the vibration and stability of curved, clamped, fluid conveying tubes is analyzed by the finite-element technique. The tubes are initially planar with general center-line shapes approximated by constant curvature arcs. The effect of internal pressure is included. Numerical results are presented with, and without, the effects of the initial in-plane forces, for circular arcs S, L, and spiral configurations. Neglecting initial forces results in out-of-plane buckling, while including these forces prevents buckling within the elastic limit, in all configurations studied.

To explore the effect of grass and shrub plant roots on the stability of soil slopes in rainy areas in the south, this article relies on the Longlang Expressway construction project. Cynodon dactylon and Magnolia multiflora were selected as research subjects. The plant distribution characteristics and mechanical properties are analyzed. This paper uses ABAQUS finite element software to construct a 3D model of the planted slope in the test section. The stress and strain on the root system and the soil were observed, and the variation law of slope stability before and after plant protection under different rainfall events was compared and analyzed. The test and simulation results show that the root content of Cynodon dactylon gradually decreases with increasing depth. Cynodon dactylon was mainly distributed in the 0–30 cm soil body, and its effect on improving the cohesion of the soil body reached 75%. Magnolia multiflora belongs to vertical roots and has a strong and longer main root with relatively developed lateral roots. Its root system passes through the sliding surface of the slope bottom, which reduces the maximum equivalent plastic stress generated inside the slope by 61%. When the total rainfall duration is unchanged, under the three rainfall intensities of small, medium, and large, herbaceous plants increase the safety factor of the soil by 1.33%, 2.08%, and 6.1%, respectively, and the roots of shrubs increase the safety factor of the soil by 3.29%, 4.08%, and 4.32%, respectively. When the rainfall intensity does not change, as the rainfall time increases, the effect of plants on the slope safety factor first gradually increases and eventually stabilizes. The research results provide a reliable theoretical basis for analyzing the effect of plant roots on soil consolidation and slope protection, and they also lay a technical foundation for the promotion and application of ecological slope protection technology.

Frame adalah salah satu komponen yang sangat penting dalam sebuah kendaraan, yang berfungsi sebagai penopang penumpang, mesin, suspensi, sistem kelistrikan dan lain-lain. Melihat fungsi dari frame sangat penting, maka dalam merancang sebuah frame harus diperhitungkan dengan baik. Banyak sekali jenis pengujian yang sering dipakai dalam perancangan sebuah struktur frame, salah satunya adalah digunakannya metode komputasi dengan menggunakan metode Finite Element Analysis (FEA).

The frame is one of the most important components in a vehicle, which functions as a support for passengers, engines, suspensions, electrical systems and others. Seeing the function of the frame is very important, so designing a frame must be taken into account well. There are many types of tests that are often used in the design of a frame structure, one of which is the use of computational methods using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method. The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution of stress, strain, displacement, and safety factor from the results of static loading on the kart frame. The frame structure was designed and analyzed using Solidworks 2016 software. The material used in the frame is steel AISI 1045 hollow tube 27  3,2 mm, using a rider load of 50 kg and 70 kg. The result of manual calculation shows that the maximum stress is 4,735  107 N/m2, while the simulation results are 4,516  107 N/m2. The maximum strain is obtained from manual calculation of 2,310  10-4. The maximum displacement is obtained from manual calculations of 1,864  108 mm, while the simulation results are 1,624  108 mm. The minimum safety factor obtained from manual calculation is 11,193, and the simulation calculation is 11,736.

Factors Affecting

Open-source 3D printer has been widely used for fabricating three dimensional products. However, this technology has some drawbacks that need to be improved such as accuracy of the finished parts. One of the factors affecting the final product is the ability of the machine to extrude the material consistently, which is related to the flow behavior of the material inside the liquefier. This paper observes the pressure drop along the liquefier by manipulating the nozzle die angle from 80° to 170° using finite element analysis (FEA) for polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) material. When the pressure drop along the liquefier is varied, the printed product also varies, thus providing less accuracy in the finished parts. Based on the FEA, it was found that 130° was the optimum die angle (convergent angle) for extruding PMMA material using open-source 3D printing.
