A finite element model of an ultra-precision grinding machine that can have high precision and high stiffness is constructed and structural analysis is done with equivalent stiffnesses of linear motion guides by after structural design and the deformation of the grinding machine is obtained. In order to reduce the deformation of the grinding machine that causes bad influence, structural complement is conducted by adding ribs at the lower part of the column. Also, the straightness of the grinding machine is improved by lifting that the base side of the column.

The ensemble static stiffness of machine tool is its ability to maintain smooth working condition and resist a variety of loads. As the dispensable part of ensemble static stiffness, critical components stiffness plays a significant role in the performance of the ultra-precision grinding machine tool. In this paper, a three-axis CNC grinding machine tool for the ultra-precision mirror surface grinding of advanced materials such as ceramics and other hard and brittle materials has been designed. And the stiffness and modal parameters of the grinding machine tool are discussed using finite element software. The results are presented and discussed thoroughly. This in turn can help to revise design defects and reduce research and develop costs.

The parameters of joint parts must be included in the finite element model of a whole grinding machine. The subject investigated in this paper is B2-K3000 high-precision composite flexible grinding machine. Through finite element modeling, the joint part parameters are integrated into the whole grinding machine model to establish a dynamic model and then analyze its static and dynamic characteristics. The result shows that the whole grinding machine possesses good features, but it still needs to be improved. This paper gives suggestions for its structure development and application.

Caerphilly Castle (1268-70) is the first concentric castle in Britain and the second largest in the UK. The dramatic inclination of its ruinous south west tower has been noted since 1539. Comparing data from historical surveys and a terrestrial laser scan undertaken in 2015, this paper seeks to review evidence for the long-term stability of the tower. Digital documentation and archival research by architects is collated to provide data for structural analysis by engineers. A terrestrial laser scan was used to create a detailed three dimensional finite element model to enable structural analysis of the current shape of the tower made by tetrahedral elements. An automated strategy has been implemented for the transformation of the complex three dimensional point cloud into a three dimensional finite element model. Numerical analysis has been carried out aiming at understanding the main structural weaknesses of the tower in its present condition. Comparisons of four sets of data: 1539, 1830, 1870 and 2015 enabled us to determine change albeit between very different methods of measurement.

The Finite Element Model

A special finite element modelling rigid links is proposed for the linear static and buckling analysis. Unlike the classical approach based on the theorems of rigid body kinematics, the proposed approach preserves the similarity between the adjacency graph for a sparse matrix and the adjacency graph for nodes of the finite element model, which allows applying sparse direct solvers more effectively. Besides, the proposed approach allows significantly reducing the number of nonzero entries in the factored stiffness matrix in comparison with the classical one, which greatly reduces the duration of the solution. For buckling problems of structures containing rigid bodies, this approach gives correct results. Several examples demonstrate its efficiency.

In the global machining industry, ultra-precision/ultra-high-speed machining has become a challenge, and its requirements are getting higher and higher. The challenge of precision grinding lies in the difficulty in ensuring the various dimensions and geometric accuracy of the final machined parts. This paper mainly uses the theory of a multi-body system to propose a “double accuracy” theory of manufacturing and measurement. Firstly, the grinding theory with an accuracy of 0.1 μm and the precision three-coordinate measuring machine theory with an accuracy of 0.3 μm are deduced. Secondly, the two theories are analyzed. Aiming to better explain the practicability of the “double accuracy” theory, a batch of motorized spindle parts is processed by a grinding machine. Then the precision three-coordinate measuring machine is used to measure the shape and position tolerances such as the roundness, the squareness, the flatness, and the coaxiality. The results show that the reached roundness of part A and B is 5 μm and 0.5 μm, the squareness is 3 μm and 4.5 μm, and the coaxiality tolerance is 1.2 μm, respectively.

It is common to dissociate load computation from structural analysis when carrying out a numerical assessment of a wind turbine blade. Loads are usually computed using a multiphysics and multibody beam finite element model of the whole turbine, whereas detailed structural analysis is managed using shell finite element models. This raises the issue of the application of the loads extracted from the beam finite element model at one node for each section and transposed into the shell finite element model. After presenting the methods found in the literature, a new method is proposed. This takes into account the physical consistency of loads: aerodynamic loads are applied as pressure on the blade surface, and inertial loads are applied as body loads. Corrections imposed by pressure and body load computation in order to match loads from the beam finite element model are proposed and a comparison with two other methods is discussed.

Manufacturing moulds for the wafer-scale replication of precision glass optics sets new demands in terms of grinding tool lifetime and the processes to be applied. This paper will present different approaches to grinding processes and kinematics to machine wafer-scale tungsten carbide moulds with diameters of up to 100 mm and more than 100 single aspheric cavities, each featuring form accuracies in the micron range. The development of these processes will be described and advantages and disadvantages of the approaches derived from practical tests performed on an ultra precision grinding machine (Moore Nanotech 350FG) will be discussed. Finally, a comparison between the developed processes is made where achieved form accuracies and surface topography are analyzed.
