We use the finite element software Midas FEA to set up space entity model, and discuss various factors including the stiffness of bearing, counteracting force of adjacent beam, the influence of the stiffness of bridge pier on reaction at support. In the practical engineering. Coupling of shear lag, stiffness of beam, bending-torsional coupling and partial load can also affect the redistribution of reaction at support. Through the simulation of the finite element software, we check the support of a railway bridge in Guangzhou city. In the end we found that the stiffness of beam can make the middle support have a tendency to increase. If we take all the factors into account, the force of the middle support will be greater than on the both ends of bearing and the force on the both ends of bearing will be approximately equal.

In order to meet the requirements of high-speed train's safe operation, the horizontal displacement of high-speed railway bridge pier top must be strictly controlled. This paper relies on one road construction engineering beneath an existing high-speed railway bridge. We use 2D finite element software to analyze the magnitude and direction of pier top horizontal displacement caused by road load. We take it into account that the effect of the soil nature on pier top horizontal displacement. The analysis showed that the nature of soil around piles of high-speed railway bridge is closely related to the magnitude and direction of the pier top horizontal displacement. Authors believe that the horizontal displacement of pier top consists of two parts. One is pier top pure horizontal displacement dragged by horizontal displacement of the top of piles, the other is pier top rotation horizontal displacement driven by the rotation of pile cap. The analysis result can be used for the design of road with embankment structure beneath high-speed railway bridge.

Cymbal Transducer

The resonance frequency of the cymbal transducer ranges from 2kHz to 40kHz and its effective electromechanical coupling factor is around 20%. Finite element analysis has been performed to ascertain how the transducer’s makeup affect the transducer’s performance parameters. Two-dimensional axisymmetric model of the cymbal transducer was founded by finite element software-ANSYS, the application of the element type was discussed and the FEM models were built up under the far field condition. Eight groups of cymbal transducers of resonance frequency around 3kHz with different structural dimensions were designed. It was better for choosing the cymbal transducer of the 8mm cavity coping diameter, 20.8mm cavity bottom diameter and 26.8mm piezoelectric ceramic wafer diameter than others for reducing distortion degree of the signal and improving communication turnover in the researched cymbal transducers. It was appropriate for choosing the cymbal transducer of the 8mm cavity coping diameter, 22.4mm cavity bottom diameter and 26.4mm piezoelectric ceramic wafer diameter in order to improve the free-field voltage sensitivity and transmission efficient.

Finite Element Meshing

The purpose of this work is to determine the spur gear mesh stiffness and the stress state at the level of the tooth foot. This mesh stiffness is derived from the calculation of the normal tooth displacements: local displacement where the load is applied, tooth bending displacement and body displacement [15]. The contribution of this work consists in, basing on previous works, developing optimal finite elements model in time calculation and results precision. This model permits the calculation of time varying mesh stiffness and the evaluation of stress state at the tooth foot. For these reasons a specific Fortran program was developed. It permit firstly, to obtain the gear geometric parameters (base radii, outside diameter,…) and to generate the data base of the finite element meshing of a tooth or a gear. This program is interfaced with the COSMOS/M finite element software to predict the stress and strain state and calculate the mesh stiffness of a gear system. It is noted that the mesh stiffness is periodic and its period is equal to the mesh period.

Thanks to its greater flexibility and biocompatibility with human tissue, superelastic NiTi alloys have taken an important part in the market of orthodontic wires. However, wire fractures and superelasticity losses are notified after a few months from being fixed in the teeth. This behavior is due to the hydrogen presence in the oral cavity, which brittles the NiTi arch wire. In this article, a diffusion-mechanical coupled model is presented while considering the hydrogen influences on the NiTi superelasticity. The model is integrated in ABAQUS finite element software via a UMAT subroutine. Additionally, a finite element model of a deflected orthodontic NiTi wire within three teeth brackets is simulated in the presence of hydrogen. The numerical results demonstrate that the force applied to the tooth drops with respect to the increase in the hydrogen amount. This behavior is attributed to the expansion of the NiTi structure after absorbing hydrogen. In addition, it is shown that hydrogen induces a loss of superelasticity. Hence, it attenuates the role of the orthodontic wire on the correction tooth malposition.
