Today, the offshore oil and gas and wind power industry is a heavily regulated segment, and current standards have established restrictions which yield a very limited weather window for submarine cable installations due to experience with cable failure in bad weather. There are two main limiting factors in current practice during cable installation of an S-lay configuration: the design criterion for the minimum allowable radius of curvature in the touch down point and the avoidance of axial compression in the touch down zone. Accurate assessment of the cable integrity during offshore installation has drawn great attention and is related to the existing available analysis and design tools. The main purpose of this paper is to develop and propose a quick and easy custom-made analysis tool, which is able to export similar results as sophisticated finite element analysis software. The developed tool utilizes analytical equations of a catenary-type submarine structure extended to account for varying cross-sections with different weights and/or stiffnesses, as is the real practice. A comparative study is presented in this paper to evaluate the significance for the modeling of the “out of water” cable segment required for accurate safety factor quantification during a laying operation. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed tool are proven through a validation study comparing the results and the computational effort and time with commercial finite element analysis software. The analysis error in the case of not modeling the “out of water” cable part is significant, especially in shallow water areas, which proves the importance of using the proposed analysis tool.

It discusses two simplified elevator bearing beam models that describe the design installation way usually and the on-site installation way respectively for the elevator’s traction machine. Taking a real 12-ton traction elevator as an example, it analyzed the load force on the bearing beam, and also used finite element analysis software ANSYS12.0 to calculate their stress situation of two simplified models. Then it compares the bearing beam strength and stiffness influences based on two different fixed ways. Finally, it suggested a conductive advice to make more reasonable choice to install the bearing beam for elevator safety.

First a 3D model for frictional roller of endless-rope winch was established with Pro/E software. And then the model was imported into finite element software named ANSYS Workbench, by which, the stress and deformation distribution of frictional roller could be acquired after meshing and loading. Next by making use of the Design Explorer module of ANSYS Workbench software, the paper analyzed the sensitivity of the major structure parameters which influence the roller strength. On the foundation of sensitivity analysis, these parameters were optimized to make the structure of the frictional roller more reasonable and meeting the design requirements.
