For steel box girder of cable-stayed bridge, which using incremental launching method, during the launching process, structural system and boundary conditions were changing, structure mechanical behaviors were complex. It was necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis on internal force and deformation of the whole structure during the launching process. Took a cable-stayed bridge with single tower, double cable planes and steel box girder in China as an example; finite element software MIDAS Civil 2010 was used to establish a model for steel box girder, simulation analysis of the entire incremental launching process was carried out. Variation rules and envelopes of the internal force, stress, deformation and support reaction were obtained. The result showed that: the maximum value of positive bending moment after launching complete was 60% of the maximum value of positive bending moment during the launching process. The maximum value of negative bending moment after launching complete was 78% of the maximum value of negative bending moment during the launching process.

The value selection of m has a greater influence on the internal force of pile. So, how to determine the value of m is very important for the “m” method. In this paper, a geotechnical finite element software PLAXIS is used for the nonlinear finite element analysis of elastic long pile under the horizontal force action. By using the calculated maximum bending moment and the maximum displacement at the ground, and combined with the related formula for “m” method given in 《Code for Pile Foundation of Harbour Engineering》, a more accurate value of m can be obtained conveniently. Because this method is simple and practical, it can provide a useful reference for the project designer to determine a reasonable value of m.

Through some engineering example, the finite element software SAP2000N is used to make a finite element analysis on the prestressed concrete slab, which is made of concrete with grade of C40, low relaxation PC strand wile with tensile strength standard value of 1860N/mm2and nonprestressed reinforcements with grade of HRB335. By doing this, the author systematically introduced the material selection, prestressing technique and linear, load values and internal force calculation, distribution of prestressed tendons and nonprestressed reinforcement, the design process of crack and deformation of cast-in-site prestressed concrete two-way slab.

In order to verify whether the inputting cantilever of bucket-wheel reclaimer will be cracked and plastic deformation, in this paper, with inputting cantilever of modeling and finite element analysis, 3D entity model of inputting cantilever is established by using CATIA software. With the transmitting data interface of ANSYS software, it imports the inputting cantilever model, which is established in the environment CATIA, into ANSYS software. Through the static analysis on the inputting cantilever by the finite element software ANSYS, we can get static deformation diagram and von stress distributing diagram. From the analysis results, we can find the weakest spot according to the displacement cloud chart, and find the stress most centralized spot according to the stress analysis cloud chart, then carry on the intensity examination to it, and make description and mark on the maximum deformation and the maximum stress spot, and put forward the improvement plan to improve the service life. This method is a efficient path for the design and intensity examination of inputting cantilever, and it provides theoretical basis for further optimization design.

Dragline teeth are used to dig overburden rocks and fill the bucket by its action in surface mining. Thus, these teeth are very important for a better performance of the dragline. In the present investigation, efforts were made to determine the failure zone within the teeth through modeling, using the finite element software ANSYS workbench. The maximum deformation and maximum von-Mises stress were 0.286 mm and 801.38 MPa, respectively. From fatigue analysis, the minimum tool life was 24 540 cycle and the minimum factor of safety was 0.1 at the tip of the tool. Beyond the cutting edge (tip), the factor of safety was greater than 1.13. Finite element analysis was extended by varying the working load on the edge of the tool (68–86 tonnes) as well as the cutting angle (30°–36°). It was found that if the working load was increased, both corresponding maximum deformation and maximum von-Mises stress were increased, while the factor of safety was decreased. In the scanning electron microscopy analysis, wear phenomena such as rock intermixed, fracture of WC-grain, oxidized WC-grain, plastic deformation, cavity formation, cracking, and crushing were visible at magnification of 1000×.

An ideal occlusal scheme plays an important role in a good prognosis of All-on-Four applications, as it does for other implant therapies, due to the potential impact of occlusal loads on implant prosthetic components. The aim of the present three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) study was to investigate the stresses on abutments, screws and prostheses that are generated by occlusal loads via different occlusal schemes in the All-on-Four concept. Three-dimensional models of the maxilla, mandible, implants, implant substructures and prostheses were designed according to the All-on-Four concept. Forces were applied from the occlusal contact points formed in maximum intercuspation and eccentric movements in canine guidance occlusion (CGO), group function occlusion (GFO) and lingualized occlusion (LO). The von Mises stress values for abutment and screws and deformation values for prostheses were obtained and results were evaluated comparatively. It was observed that the stresses on screws and abutments were more evenly distributed in GFO. Maximum deformation values for prosthesis were observed in the CFO model for lateral movement both in the maxilla and mandible. Within the limits of the present study, GFO may be suggested to reduce stresses on screws, abutments and prostheses in the All-on-Four concept.

The study obtains a methodology for the bionic design of the tower for wind turbines. To verify the rationality of the biological selection, the Analytic Hierarchy Procedure (AHP) is applied to calculate the similarity between the bamboo and the tower. Creatively, a bionic bamboo tower (BBT) is presented, which is equipped with four reinforcement ribs and five flanges. Further, finite element analysis is employed to comparatively investigate the performance of the BBT and the original tower (OT) in the static and dynamic. Through the investigation, it is suggested that the maximum deformation and maximum stress can be reduced by 5.93 and 13.75% of the BBT. Moreover, this approach results in 3% and 1.1% increase respectively in the First two natural frequencies and overall stability.
