Due to the environment, climate, loads and other factors, the pre-stress applied to the beam is not a constant. It is important for engineers to track the state of the pre-stress in order to ensure security of the bridge in service. To solve the problem mentioned above, the paper puts forward a new way to analyze the effective pre-stress using the displacement inversion method based on the inversion theory according to the measured vertical deflection of the bridge in service at different time. The method is a feasible way to predict the effective pre-stress of the bridge in service. Lastly, taking the pre-stressed concrete continuous rigid frame bridge for example, the effective pre-stress is analyzed by establishing the finite element model.

In order to obtain high-quality analytical results of the finite element model, it is essential to construct a three dimensional geometric model. The paper reconstructed an accurate three dimensional geometric model of cervical spine segments (C4-C7). The process of reconstruction included three-dimensional reconstruction, smooth processing, contour generation, grid generation and fitting surface. Moreover, the result of reconstruction was evaluated ultimately. The model was validated to be smooth and reasonable, and could meet the requirements of finite element analysis. The method is not merely applied to reconstruct the geometric model of the cervical spine. It is a way to construct the model of the skeletal system of the human body.

This paper addresses the modeling and prediction of the normal holding force in an electromagnetic chuck used in precision machining applications. Knowledge of the normal holding force is necessary to determine if a given chuck is capable of preventing workpiece slip during machining. First, an analytic model termed the magnetic circuit model was developed and compared with experimental holding force data. It was found that this model, although simple in form, was limited in its ability to accurately predict the holding force over the entire range of conditions investigated. The discrepancies in the model were attributed to its inability to accurately model the leakage flux and nonuniform distribution of the magnetic flux. A three-dimensional finite element model was then developed to overcome these limitations. Predictions with this model were found to be in better agreement with experiments, yielding prediction errors within 25 percent in most cases. The finite element model also provided an explanation for the observed decrease in the measured holding force at current values beyond a certain threshold. [S1087-1357(00)01503-3]

Using the static and dynamic test data simultaneously to update the finite element model can increase the available information for updating. It can overcome the disadvantages of updating based on static or dynamic test data only. In this paper, the response surface method is adopted to update the finite element model of the structure based on the static and dynamic test. Using the reasonable experiment design and regression techniques, a response surface model is formulated to approximate the relationships between the parameters and response values instead of the initial finite element model for further updating. First, a numerical example of a reinforced concrete simply supported beam is used to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach. Then, this approach is applied to update the finite element model of a prestressed reinforced concrete rigid frame-continuous girders bridge based on in-situ static and dynamic test data. Results show that this approach works well and achieve reasonable physical explanations for the updated parameters. The results from the updated model are in good agreement with the results from the in-situ measurement. The updated finite element model can accurately represent mechanical properties of the bridge and it can serve as a benchmark model for further damage detection and condition assessment of the bridge.

The process of multi-wedge cross wedge rolling is an advanced precision technology for forming long shaft parts such as automobile semi-axes. Three-dimensional solid model and the finite element model of semi-axes on automobile and dies of its cross wedge rolling were established. The process of cross wedge rolling was simulated according to the actual dimension of semi-axes on automobile utilizing the finite element method (FEM)software ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The required force parameters for designing semi-axes mill are determined. The appropriate roller width was determined according to the length and diameter of semi-axes on automobile.

Super-harmonic components in response to the harmonic excitation are sensitive indicators of damages such as breathing cracks in beams or kissing bonds in adhesive joints. In a model-based damage identification process using pattern recognition, these damage indicators can be extracted from the finite element model for all probable damage cases using stepped-sine simulation that necessitates nonlinear transient dynamic analysis with high computational costs. In this study, a procedure based on nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous input model is introduced as an alternative shortcut method for extraction of the damage indicators. As a case study, the finite element model of a beam connected to a rigid support via a flexible adhesive layer was used to investigate the efficiency of the proposed method. Kissing bond was introduced to the model as the source of nonlinearity via contact elements. The results prove that the super-harmonic components of orders up to 3, extracted from the nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous input model, agreed well with those extracted directly from the finite element model, whereas the computational time is reduced by a factor of 1/5. Consequently, the proposed method is very advantageous in the stage of damage pattern database creation in a real-world model-based damage identification process based on pattern recognition.
