3D finite element models of magnetic suspended control moment gyroscope structure are established by general finite element analysis software. Initial modal analysis scheme of the MS-CMG structure, in which the frame and gyro-chamber are analyzed separately, is described. A new modal analysis scheme that the MS-CMG is analyzed as a whole structure is presented. The connection between the gyro-chamber and frame is realized by defining a revolution pairs. The numerical predictions from two modal analysis schemes show obvious difference. The new scheme is more reliable since it simulates the real wok status of MS-CMG.

This article presents the overall methodology and the results of the three-dimensional (3D) finite element buckling analysis of the primary containment drywell shell at the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station (Oyster Creek). The buckling stresses, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors are computed using ANSYS finite element analysis software [1], and the structural integrity of the drywell in terms of the buckling (stability) limits are based on the ASME B&PV Code Case N-284-1 [2].

AIM: This study aimed to compare the stresses generated by using two or four root form dental implants supporting mandibular overdentures that were retained with ball and locator attachments.METHODS: Under ANSYS environment, four 3D finite element models were prepared. These models simulated complete overdentures supported by two or four implants with either ball or locator attachments as a connection mechanism. The models’ components were created by CAD/CAM package then were imported to ANSYS. Load of 100 N was applied at the right premolar/molar region vertically and at an oblique angle of 110° from lingual direction.RESULTS: Within the conditions of this research, in all cases, it was found that cortical and cancellous bone regions were the least to be stressed. Also, the ball attachment produced higher stresses.CONCLUSION: Caps deformation and stresses are negligible in cases of using locator attachment in comparison to ball attachments. This may indicate longer lifetime and less repair/maintenance operations in implant overdentures retained by locator attachments. Although the study revealed that bone was insensitive to a number of implants or attachment type, it may be recommended to use two implants in the canine region than using four, where the locator attachments were found to be better.

This study investigated hollow stemmed hip forging for enhancing the biocompatibility of Ti-6AL-4V titanium alloys. Instead of using the expensive titanium billet, this study applied DEFORMTM 3D finite element analysis software to simulate and analyze stem forming with respect to different die temperatures, friction factors, punch types, forging velocities, and billet temperatures. On the basis of its shape, a punch can be classified as flat head, ladder shaped, spherical, and conical. These differences affect the effective stress and punch load after stem formation. The experiment parameters were determined using the Taguchi L16 (45) orthogonal table. Both the simulated and experimental results indicated that the error for the size of the bone stem was less than 2%.

The finite element models of the planar K-joint are established based on the finite element analysis software ANSYS. The bracing members are under the action of axial force and moment. Different rotational deformation values of the joint with different geometric parameters are reached with calculation and analysis. Results show that the deformation value approximate linearly increased with the increasing load of the bracing member. It also shows that the influence of the bracing member diameter and wall thickness is larger on rotational deformation values and the rotational deformation of the part of the K-joint is greatly influenced by the deformation of joint region.

In order to analyze vibration characteristics of whole structure of the spherical grinder, the finite element analysis software is applied to finite element modal analysis of the structure. 3D model of spherical grinder is established by Pro/ENGINEER software. Finite element model of spherical grinder is established in the finite element analysis software ANSYS Workbench. The previous 6-order inherent frequencies and the corresponding vibration modes are obtained through the finite element calculation. According to the vibration intensity distribution, the corresponding improvement measure is put forward. It provides theoretical basis for dynamic analysis and improved design of spherical grinder.

Background: Orthodontic relapse is fairly common; however, the mechanisms between relapse and the dental arch form remain unclear. The purpose of our study was to establish three-dimensional (3D) finite element models of different dental arch forms after orthodontic treatment and to analyze the states of different arches applied with various sagittal forces.Methods: By calculating the equations of different dental arch forms and combining them with a full maxillary arch (14 teeth), 3D finite element models of square, oval, and tapered dental arches were established; they were designed to be subjected to anterior lingual, posterior mesial, and combined forces, respectively.Results: The von Mises stress and displacement of teeth under different forces were calculated for each loading scenario. Under the different forcing scenarios, all incisors had irregularity trends, and the inclination and intrusion of the canines were increased, and the premolars had a tendency to buccal or lingual crown tipping or even intrusion in our study. The tapered arch was the most stable and had the smallest displacement and von Mises stress, followed by the ovoid arch; the most unstable arch was the square arch.Conclusions: To achieve a stable orthodontic effect, a tapered or ovoid arch, rather than a square arch, should be chosen as the final outcome of treatment.
