The high-pile wharf near estuary under wave subjects to great wave force. The wave force can cause destruction of the wharf superstructure. Current research focuses on the case where the forward direction of the wave is perpendicular to or inclined to the wharf front line and mostly applied physics modelling experiments. This paper is to study the case where the wave is parallel to the front line of the high-pile wharf. Take a high-pile wharf near estuary as a model and use the finite element software Ansys to establish the space model. Analysis of internal forces and the destruction of high-pile wharf are made. Meanwhile, the preliminary solution depending on the destruction are proposed, providing references for projects.

Abstract Based on hierarchic shape functions and an effective convergence procedure, the p-version and h-p adaptive analysis capabilities were incorporated into a finite element software system, called COSMOS/M. The range of the polynomial orders can be varied from 1 to 10 for two dimensional linear elastic analysis. In the h-p adaptive analysis process, a refined mesh are first achieved via adaptive h-refinement. The p-refinement is then added on to the h-version designed mesh by uniformly increasing the degree of the polynomials. Some numerical results computed by COSMOS/M are presented to illustrate the performance of these p and h-p analysis capabilities.

The research paper focuses on internal forces determination in the elements of modular buildings under wind load. It provides a methodology for determining dynamic characteristics of a building and for calculating wind loads. This method is based on the following assumptions: coupling of the modules elements is rigid; coupling of block-modules with foundations is hinged-fixed; connection of blocks to each other is hinged in angular points; the floor disk in its plane is not deformed. On the basis of these assumptions the authors derived approximate and refined equations for determining forces in modules elements under static and pulsation components of wind load. The equation of bending moments determination in the pillar bearing cross-section is obtained by approximation of the graph of moments variation, calculated for the spectrum of the ratio of the pillar stiffness and the floor beam in the range from 1/64 to 64. The paper further introduces the calculation results of forces based on the proposed methodology and on the finite element method. The calculations were done while taking different values of wind load and different number of storeys in a building (from 1 to 4 floors). The obtained results are similar, the error does not exceed 5%.

The Finite Element Model

With the port crane getting bigger and heavier, and also moving much faster than before, the thermal effect in wheel and rail during the brake process can be a reason of the failure of port crane. In this paper, the thermal effect during the brake process of port crane is studied using the finite element method. Based on the finite element model, the ANSYS10.0 finite element software is used. The thermal effects under different coefficients are discussed. Three different slide speed of wheel, two different loads of crane, and three different frictional coefficients are applied. The importance of the different coefficients is obtained from the numerical results.

The aim of the work - comparison of the results of determining the parameters of the stress-strain state of plane-loaded elastic bodies based on the finite element method in the formulation of the displacement method and in the mixed formulation. Methods. Algorithms of the finite element method in various formulations have been developed and applied. Results. In the Cartesian coordinate system, to determine the stress-strain state of an elastic body under plane loading, a finite element of a quadrangular shape is used in two formulations: in the formulation of the method of displacements with nodal unknowns in the form of displacements and their derivatives, and in a mixed formulation with nodal unknowns in the form of displacements and stresses. The approximation of displacements through the nodal unknowns when obtaining the stiffness matrix of the finite element was carried out using the form function, whose elements were adopted Hermite polynomials of the third degree. Upon receipt of the deformation matrix, the displacements and stresses of the internal points of the finite element were approximated through nodal unknowns using bilinear functions. The stiffness matrix of the quadrangular finite element in the formulation of the displacement method is obtained on the basis of a functional based on the difference between the actual workings of external and internal forces under loading of a solid. The matrix of deformation of the finite element was formed on the basis of a mixed functional obtained from the proposed functional by repla-cing the actual work of internal forces with the difference between the total and additional work of internal forces when loading the body. The calculation example shows a significant advantage of using a finite element in a mixed formulation.

The purpose of this paper is to compare calculation of internal forces and deformations of slabs for two calculation methods: the finite element method and the finite difference method. Two concrete slabs have been analysed. In the case of the finite element method, different element mesh are used, providing, thus, solutions in different variants. The calculation and algorithms is based on a thin slab theory. Variants calculate in program Scia Engineer effects of shearing forces by means of the Midlins theory or thin slab theory. Algorithms for the calculation were developed in Matlab.

This paper presents the behaviour and design procedure of bolted connections which tend to be sensitive to block shear failure. The finite element method is employed to examine the block shear failure. The research-oriented finite element method (RFEM) model is validated with the results of experimental tests. The validated model is used to verify the component-based FEM (CBFEM) model, which combines the analysis of internal forces by the finite element method and design of plates, bolts and welds by the component method (CM). The CBFEM model is verified by an analytical solution based on existing formulas. The method is developed for the design of generally loaded complicated joints, where the distribution of internal forces is complex. The resistance of the steel plates is controlled by limiting the plastic strain of plates and the strength of connectors, e.g., welds, bolts and anchor bolts. The design of plates at a post-critical stage is available to allow local buckling of slender plates. The prediction of the initial stiffness and the deformation capacity is included natively. Finally, a sensitivity study is prepared. The studied parameters include gusset plate thickness and pitch distance.

Element Method

The finite element method is applied to determine the wave forces and wave fields for various coastal and ocean structures. Wave diffraction and radiation problems are solved by the method. A special infinite element is implemented in a computer program to model an outer infinite sea area. The employed numerical examples are for a vertical breakwater, a gravity-type ocean platform and a floating rectangular caisson. All computed results are compared with ones from experiments and other numerical methods. As a result, it is concluded that the finite element method using infinite elements can give sufficient accuracy to be applicable to most practical structures in the ocean.
