Taken the computer case as an example, dynamics modeling and analysis of a thin shell structure is presented in this paper. Optimization is implemented with the goal to reduce the vibration. Four proposals of optimal design are simulated employing the FEM software. Those proposals differ in material, shape, pattern and connectivity. Some especial techniques are used to build the three-dimensional model and to finish the FEM analysis. The dynamics characteristics of the computer case are then investigated in modal analysis based on the dynamics theory. The result is acquired by comparing the modal parameters of those in different proposals. A preferable model takes also the manufacturing and cost into account. The skeleton is universal to dynamics analysis and design of other thin shell structure.

ABSTRACTObjectives: Non-homogeneous force distribution along the miniplates and the screws is an unsolved question for skeletal anchorage in orthodontics. To overcome this issue, a miniplate structure was designed featuring spikes placed on the surface facing the cortical bone. The aim of this study was to examine and compare the force distribution of the newly designed plate-screw systems with the conventional one.Methods: A model of bone surface with 1.5 mm cortical thickness, along with the two newly designed miniplates and a standard miniplate-screw were simulated on the three-dimensional model. 200 g experimental force was applied to the tip of the miniplates and the consequential effects on the screws and cortical bone was evaluated using three-dimensional finite element method.Results: As a result of this finite element study, remarkably lower stresses were observed on the screws and the cortical bone around the screws with the newly designed miniplate when compared with the conventional one.Conclusion: The newly designed miniplate that has spikes was found effective in reducing the stress on and around the screws and the force was distributed more equivalently.

Using ANSYS program, the finite element simulation based on thermoelectric coupling is conducted by a series of procedures, such as three-dimensional model building of airflow level posture sensor according to the actual size of the proportion, network modifying, loads applying and equation solving. The sensitive mechanism of airflow level posture sensor is explained by finite element method. The numerical results show that compared with two-dimensional modeling, the simulation result of three-dimensional modeling and thermoelectric analysis methods are more comprehensive and accurate, which provides more reliable basis for practical research of the airflow level posture sensor.

This article takes an efficient feeding head as the research object to study its work mechanism and perform dynamics analysis of the materials in the feeding head. In addition, this article obtains the physical prototype of a three-dimensional model and the feeding surface equation through the surface data of the feeding head and investigates different unfold lines of the feeding surface. In addition, this article recommends a curve equation of the feeding head under different friction coefficients through EDEM + FLUENT simulation analysis and conducts a research on transport and feeding quantity to deduce the equation for the transport quantity of the feeding head. Finally, the verity of the preceding curve equation and transport quantity is confirmed, which has important guiding significance for the feeding head design.

Finite element is used to analyze the effects of infarct on left ventricular end-diastolic function. The results for the symmetric infarct cases 1–6 demonstrated in this paper correspond to infarct percent by volume of 4, 8, 9, 16, 25 and 51% respectively. Using the developed three-dimensional model, these infarct percent by volume showed a reduction in end-diastolic volume (EDV) of 3, 5, 5, 8, 11, 17 mL respectively. Three natural infarct cases denoted A, B and C was evaluated consisting of 7%, 15% and 50% infarct region by volume respectively. The decrease in EDV for cases A, B and C were 6, 9 and 17 mL. The simulated decrease in EDV for the infarct cases was consistent with patients experiencing decreased tissue compliance. The higher left ventricle (LV) pressure resulted in an increase in wall stress opposite to the infarct for the symmetric and natural infarct cases.

Abstract AFO (Ankle-Foot Orthosis), which covers the ankle and foot, protects and supports the ankle joint as well as the structures around it. It contributes to the maintenance of the correct gait cycle. Owing to orthoses, the functional capacity of the body part is significantly improved, and so is the quality of life for the user. Personalized orthoses, which are adapted to the anatomy of the user, are more and more often produced by the additive methods. The use of 3D printing for the manufacturing medical devices is becoming increasingly common due to the low cost of the whole process, short production time and the possibility of the product personalization. One of the stages in manufacturing AFOs with the additive method is to create a three-dimensional model of the orthosis in CAD software. Finite element analysis was performed to assess the mechanical properties of the orthosis. The influence of geometry and the materials used were investigated with FEM analysis software. As a result of structural analysis during the design stage, the assessment of the medical device in terms of its durability and mechanical resistance without putting the user at risk is possible. On the basis of the obtained results, the structure strength was compared.

Axi-symmetric and three-dimensional CFD models for a rotating open interdisk cavity have been developed to predict flow, heat transfer, windage power loss and cavity air temperatures as a part of the rotor thermomechanical analysis and design life study. The cavity has a tangential (axial and circumferential) seal air flow above it. The rotational Reynolds number is 4.8 × 106 and the non-dimensional seal flow rate is 9.8 × 104. Measured wall temperatures are used as boundary conditions in the model. The axi-symmetric model smears the cavity bolts as 360° continuous rings and therefore ignores the bolts pumping effect. The windage loss calculation from the axi-symmetric model is in good agreement with the experimental data in the literature. The heat transfer coefficient values from the axi-symmetric and three-dimensional models are comparable in most of the regions apart from near the bolts. Also, the three-dimensional model simulates the bolt pumping effects and yields a much higher windage loss value, which in turn raises the cavity air temperature. It is concluded that a three-dimensional model is necessary for an accurate heat transfer analysis.
