This paper presents a new method which combined multi-body dynamics theory and finite element technology to calculate transient stress of the crankshaft of the large-scale reciprocating compressor. On the basis of multi-body dynamics theory, the kinematical simulation of the crankshaft, the connecting rod, the piston and other components were performed, and thus to get the vibration modal of the crankshaft. So we can judge whether the crankshafts torsional resonance will happen, as well as get the real loads on the crankshaft when it worked. Then the transient stress of the crankshaft can be calculated using finite element technology. Comparing to traditional stress calculating methods, this new method not only considers the variable inertia which caused by reciprocating masss movement, but also can calculate the integrated vibration stress of crankshaft in three directions, including torsion, lateral and axial. Therefore, this method can describe dynamic characteristics of the crankshaft more accurately and more entirely.

This paper introduces a complex multi-body dynamics model which is established to simulate the dynamic behaviors of a multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing based on the finite element method and the software ADAMS. The finite element method is used to introduce deformable ring-gears and sun-gears by using 3D brick units. A whole multi-body dynamics model is established in the software ADAMS. Mesh stiffness variation excitation and gear tooth contact loss are intrinsically considered. A rich spectrum of dynamic phenomena is shown in the multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing. The results show that the static strength of main parts of the gearing is strong enough and the main vibration and noises are excited by the dynamic mesh forces acting on the tooth of planet-gears and ring-gears.

In the past finite element analysis (FEA) and multi-body system simulation (MBS) were two isolated methods in the field of mechanical system simulation. Both of them had their specific fields of application. In recent years, it is urgent to combine these two methods as the flexible multi-body system grows up. This paper mainly focuses on modeling of the spindle system of hammer crusher, including geometric model, finite element model and multi-body dynamics (MBD) model. For multi-body dynamics modeling, the contact force between hammer and scrap steel was discussed, which is important to obtain the impact force. This paper also proposed how to combine FEA and MBS to analyze the dynamic performance of the spindle system by using different software products of MSC.Software.

Engine mount vibration level, which is mainly driven by gas and unbalanced inertial forces, is one of the key metrics for the NVH (Noise Vibration Harshness) performance of a vehicle. In addition to gas and unbalanced inertial forces, crankshaft dynamics has also effect on engine mount vibrations. This project is concentrating in including the effect of crankshaft dynamics on engine mount vibrations with the aid of Finite Element Methods and Multi Body Dynamics. Flywheel swirl mode, its effect on engine mount vibration levels and engine mount acceleration for different flywheel configurations will be simulated.

Large-scale contact problems with impacts and Coulomb friction arise in the simulation of rigid body dynamics treated within the non-smooth contact dynamics approach using set-valued force and impact laws. In this paper the parallelization of two popular numerical methods for solving such contact problems on the GPU, being the projected over-relaxed Jacobi (JOR Prox) and projected Gauss-Seidel iteration (SOR Prox), is studied in detail. Performance tests for the parallel JOR and SOR Prox iterations are conducted and a speedup factor of up to 16, depending on the problem size, can be achieved compared to a sequential implementation. This work forms the stepping stone to the simulation of granular media on a computer cluster.

The finite element model of heavy-duty machine tool’s ram components has a large number of elements, many contact pairs for assembly and a large-scale optimization calculation, which make the optimization difficult to conduct. To solve this problem, a static stiffness optimization method of the large component based on the equivalent elastic modulus is put forward. The proposed method is applied to super-heavy-duty CNC floor-type milling and boring machine of TK6932 as a case study. Based on the principle of the equivalent stiffness, the ram assembly with complex constraints and contacts is equivalent to a ram part without other components, the calculation method of the equivalent elastic modulus is analyzed and the equivalent elastic modulus formula of the ram under the bending load is derived. Taking the four box-walls’ thickness and the three stiffened-plates’ thickness of the ram as the optimization variables, the minimal volume under static loading as the target and the maximal displacement and stress as the constraints, the optimized mathematical model of the ram’s equivalent static stiffness is established. The results of the optimization are rounded according to the sensitivity analysis. Besides, the optimization effect is proved by simulation through the finite element technology. The optimization procedure and results show that the simplified method based on equivalent elastic modulus presented in the paper can control the calculation scale effectively, and ensure the process of the optimization smooth.
