Ensuring that deployable mechanisms are sufficiently rigid is a major challenge due to their large size relative to their mass. This paper examines three basic types of stiffener that can be applied to light, origami-inspired structures to manage their stiffness. These stiffeners are modeled analytically to enable prediction and optimization of their behavior. The results obtained from this analysis are compared to results from a finite-element analysis and experimental data. After verifying these models, the advantages and disadvantages of each stiffener type are considered. This comparison will facilitate stiffener selection for future engineering applications.

The Relationship

In this paper, the ram of boring and milling machining center is taken as the research object. A new method that hydraulic pull rods compensation is proposed to solve the problem of deformation compensation of long stroke ram of boring and milling machining center. Firstly, the method of finite element analysis is used to get the laws of ram deformation and the relationship curve between the ram deformation and the stroke of ram. Secondly, the preliminary calculation value of pull rods compensation force is derived based on the theoretical analysis of material mechanics. The relationship curve between compensation force and the stroke of ram is obtained by finite element analysis and polynomial least squares method. Finally, the analyzed results are as follows: the laws of ram deformation distribution is accurately predicted by the used method, the deflection error of the ram is well controlled,and the machining precision is significantly improved.

Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) are promising materials for actuation in space applications, because of the relatively large deformations and forces that they offer. However, their complex behaviour and interaction of several physical domains (electrical, thermal and mechanical), the study of SMA behaviour is a challenging field. Present work aims at correlating the Finite Element (FE) analysis of SMA with closed form solutions and experimental data. Though sufficient literature is available on closed form solution of SMA, not much detail is available on the Finite element Analysis. In the present work an attempt is made for characterization of SMA through solving the governing equations by established closed form solution, and finally correlating FE results with these data. Extensive experiments were conducted on 0.3mm diameter NiTinol SMA wire at various temperatures and stress conditions and these results were compared with FE analysis conducted using MSC.Marc. A comparison of results from finite element analysis with the experimental data exhibits fairly good agreement.

This technical note demonstrates two methods of incorporating the experimental stiffness of spinal motion segments into a finite element analysis of the spine. The first method is to incorporate the experimental data directly as a stiffness matrix. The second method approximates the experimental data as a beam element.

Abstract How to enlarge the output displacement is a key issue in the research field of microgrippers. It is difficult to further enlarge the output displacement for the traditional displacement transmission mechanism (DTM). In this research, a two-stage amplification cylinder-driven DTM based on the compliant mechanisms is designed to realize the displacement output expansion. The opening and closing of the clamping jaws is driven by the air cylinder to enlarge the output displacement of the microgripper. According to the analysis of statics model of the mechanism, the relationship between the output displacement of the microgripper and the driving pressure of the cylinder is established. The magnification of the microgripper is obtained using a dynamic model. Moreover, based on the finite element analysis, the mechanical structure parameters are optimized. The microgripper was fabricated by utilizing wire electro discharge machining (WEDM) technique, and then a series of experiments were carried out to obtain the relationship between the displacement and the driving pressure. It is found that the maximum output displacement measured is 1190.4μm under the pressure of 0-0.6 Mpa, corresponding to the magnification of 47.63. Compared with the results of finite element analysis and theoretical calculation, the test results have a discrepancy of 2.39% and 6.62%, respectively. The microgripper has successfully grasped a variety of micro-parts with irregular shapes, and parallel grasping can be achieved, demonstrating the potential application of this design in the field of micromanipulation.

AbstractNeutron diffraction was used to measure the residual stress distribution in an FeAl weld overlay on steel. It was found that the residual stresses accumulated during welding were essentially removed by the post-weld heat treatment that was applied to the specimen; most residual stresses in the specimen developed during cooling following the post-weld heat treatment. The experimental data were compared with a plasto-elastic finite element analysis. While some disagreement exists in absolute strain values, there is satisfactory agreement in strain spatial distribution between the experimental data and the finite element analysis.
