Uneven distribution of temperature is one of the important factors which influences heavy rail bending changes during the cooling process. Through the research of temperature field can reasonable analysis the heavy rail bending change rule, so it is necessary to study the temperature change rule during heavy rail cooling process. This paper adopts finite element analysis software ANSYS to set up three-dimensional models of U75V heavy rail and the cooling bed, and numerical simulate the cooling process. In which, it is studied the temperature changing rules and its distribution rules, emphatically analyzed temperature changing rule during the phase transition phase, and got the temperature changing rules and distribution rules in final cooling time. Especially, it is considered that the heavy rail placed on its side, the latent heat of phase transition and thermal radiation. This research can provide the theory basis and the advisory opinion on the formulation of cooling technological parameters and preflex regulations of the rail.

Objective: To assess and compare the tensions and deformations (stresses and strains) generated after application of two types of forces (traction and torsion) in miniscrews of two different materials (titanium and stainless steel) placed at five different angulations. Materials and Methods: Three-dimensional models of the posterior maxillary area and the mini-implants were constructed using computer-aided design software program (CATIA P3 V5-6 R2015 B26 / 2016; Dassault Systèmes). Titanium and stainless steel materials were used for miniscrews. The area constructed was in between the maxillary second premolar and first molar. The models with mini-implants were inserted at five different angulations (30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90°). Torsional and tractional forces were applied on these implants, and the models were solved using ANSYS 10.0. Stress generated in implant and in the cortical and cancellous bones was evaluated and compared at all the five angulations. Results: Stress generated in stainless steel mini-implant during torsional and linear force application was less when compared with titanium mini-implant. Also, stress generated in implants of both materials increased as the angle increased from 30° to 90°. Difference in stress generated by stainless steel implant in the cortical bone for both linear and torsional forces was less when compared with titanium implant, whereas for cancellous bone, the difference was insignificant at all the angles. Conclusion: Irrespective of angles, difference in stress generated in stainless steel implants and titanium implants for both the forces was not significant, and hence, stainless steel implants can be used effectively in a clinical setting.

This paper presents a thermomechanical analysis of a first stage bucket during a gas turbine startup. This analysis uses two simulation techniques, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for the conjugate heat transfer and flow analysis, and finite element analysis (FEA) for the thermostructural analysis. Computational three-dimensional models were developed using two commercial codes, including all elements of the real bucket to avoid geometric simplifications. An interface was developed to transfer the three-dimensional behavior of bucket temperatures during turbine startup from CFD analysis to subsequent FEA analysis, imposing them as a thermal load. This interface virtually integrates the computational models, although they have different grids. The results of this analysis include temperature evolution and related stresses, as well as the thermomechanical stresses and zones where they are present. These stresses are dominated by thermal mechanisms, so a new temperature startup curve is proposed where the maximum calculated stress decline around 100 MPa, and almost all stresses are lower throughout the transient analysis. The results are compared with experimental data reported in the literature obtaining acceptable approximation.

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the effect of the position of the apical portion of closing loops on the force system at both loop ends. Materials and Methods: T-loops were compared with backward-sloped L-loops (SL) and reversed L-loops (RL). SL-loops were directed toward the anterior side; RL-loops were directed toward the posterior side. Loop response to loop pulling was determined with finite element analysis at six positions of the apical loop portion for 12-mm interbracket distance and 8-mm loop length and height. Three-dimensional models of the closing loops were created using beam elements with the properties of stainless steel. Loop responses (horizontal load/deflection, vertical force, and moment-to-force ratio) at both loop ends were calculated as well as at 100 g and 200 g activation forces. Results: T-, SL-, and RL-loops with the same position of the apical portion showed approximately the same force system at both loop ends. This behavior was found across the investigated range through which the loops were moved (interbracket center to posterior bracket). Conclusions: The center of the apical portion determined the force system of the closing loops regardless of the position of the loop legs. The centers of the apical portion of the T-, SL-, and RL-loops acted like V-bend positions.

When rolled heavy rail is on the cooling bed for natural cooling, the heat transfer coefficient has important effect on the bending and section sizes of cooled heavy rail. In the paper, the heat-stress couple module ofANSYS software is adopted to carry on numerical simulation on the cooling process of 60kg/m U75V heavy rail, and we obtain the change rule that heat transfer coefficient has effect on bending curvature and section sizes of cooled heavy rail. This study is of great reference value on cooling bed design and the formulation of cooling technological parameters for high speed heavy rail.

Residual stress affect the lifetime of weldments directly. Temperature Generated from the welding process is the major reason that influences the microstructure and mechanical properties of the metal weldments. Therefore it is necessary to simulate the temperature field for optimizing the structure of weldments. In this work the three-dimension finite element analysis software SYSWELS was used to simulate T-type tube, and carried on a detailed analysis of temperature field and residual stress in cool process of weld.

Purpose. To evaluate the effects of different placements of mesial implants and different angles of distant implants in maxillary edentulous jaws on the stress on the implant and the surrounding bone tissue under dynamic loading. Materials and Methods. Cone beam computed tomography was used to acquire images of maxillary edentulous jaws. Using Mimics 17.0, Geomagic, and Unigraphics NX8.5 software, three-dimensional models were established: two mesial implants were placed vertically in the anterior region of the maxilla (bilateral central incisor, lateral incisor, and canine), and two distant implants were placed obliquely in the bilateral second premolar area at different inclined angles (15°, 30°, and 45°). The established models were designated I–IX. The models were subjected to dynamic load using Abaqus 6.12, with the working side posterior teeth loading of 150 N and simulation cycle of 0.875 s. Results. During the second to fourth phases of the mastication cycle, the stress was mainly concentrated on the neck of the distal implant. The stress of the distal implants was greater than that of mesial implants. Stress levels peaked in the third stage of the cycle. The stress of the distal cortical bone of distal implant of Model I reached the maximum of 183.437 MPa. The stress of the distal cortical bone and cancellous bone of distal implant of Model VIII represented the minima (62.989 MPa and 17.186 MPa, respectively). Conclusions. Our models showed optimal stress reductions when the mesial implants were located in the canine region and the distal implants tilted 30°.

The aim of this paper was to find an optimal stiffener configuration of thin-wall tubular panels made by glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite material, which is a low carbon emission, low life cycle cost, and sustainable material. Finite-element analysis (FEA) was used to investigate the flexural and torsional stiffness of various internally stiffened sections of thin-wall GFRP decks. These decks consist of internally stiffened tubular profiles laid side by side and bonded together with epoxy to ensure the panel acts as an assembly. Three-dimensional models of the seven proposed decks were assembled with tubular profiles of different stiffener patterns. First, the non-stiffened tube profile was tested experimentally to validate the parameters used in the subsequent numerical analysis. Then, the finite element software, ANSYS, was used to simulate the flexural and torsional behavior of the decks with different stiffener patterns under bending and torsional loads. The decks with stiffener patterns such as “O” type, “V” type, and “D” type were found to be the most effective in bending. For torsion, there was a distinct tendency for deck panels with closed shaped stiffener patterns to perform better than their counterparts. Overall, the “O” type deck panel was an optimal stiffener configuration.
