The stress concentration of SWATH’s cross-deck structure is serious and the problem of its structure strength appears particularly important. In this paper, A 3-D global element model of SWATH was built, the design Loads, load cases and boundary conditions were studied. on the base of that, the structure response analysis was completed. The result show that the global ship’s stress is small in all load cases of head seas and oblique seas, and the bulkheads have serious stress concentration phenomenon in beam seas.The result can offer the reference for SWATH’s design and development.

Spring-damper units were set on the boundaries to absorb incident waves and reflected scattering waves to realize viscoelastic artificial boundary (VAB). The equivalent node load input method was used to simulate the VAB and viscoelastic boundary element wave input. Programming is based on APDL secondary development language with ANSYS finite element software. Considering the interaction between chamber structure and the surrounding soil, docking chamber structure dynamic model is established based on the VAB. The linear elastic model was used for concrete structure. The D-P nonlinear model was used for the back soil calculation. Docking chamber structure dynamic analysis under conditions of fixed boundaries and viscoelastic boundaries were conducted. The result indicated that under the viscoelastic boundary conditions, dynamic acceleration response is significant on the top of the lock wall, which is approximately 2.5 times of the value on the bottom of the lock wall. The maximum response stress appears near the cross point of the lock wall and the bottom floor with value of approximately 5620 kPa;.The chamber bottom floor is subjected to tension and maximum stress with the value of approximately 6180 kPa. Usually, the structure response under the fixed boundary conditions is higher than the structure response under the viscoelastic boundary conditions.

This paper investigates the damping potential of strip dampers on a real turbine bladed disk. A 3D numerical friction contact model is used to compute the contact forces by means of the Alternate Frequency Time domain method. The Jacobian matrix required during the iterative solution is computed in parallel with the contact forces, by a quasi-analytical method. A finite element model of the strip dampers, that allows for an accurate description of their dynamic properties, is included in the steady-state forced response analysis of the bladed disk. Cyclic symmetry boundary conditions and the multiharmonic balance method are applied in the formulation of the equations of motion in the frequency domain. The nonlinear forced response analysis is performed with two different types of boundary conditions on the strip: (a) free-free and (b) elastic, and their influence is analyzed. The effect of the strip mass, thickness and the excitation levels on the forced response curve is investigated in detail.

In this study, vibration responses of harbor caisson structures with various boundary conditions are experimentally examined as a fundamental study to develop a health assessment technique for harbor structures. To achieve the objective, four-step approach is implemented. Firstly, a target caisson structure is selected and a small-scale model of the caisson model is constructed in the laboratory. Secondly, a finite element model of the caisson model is generated to analyze dynamic responses of the structure. Thirdly, experimental tests are performed on the caisson model to obtain dynamic responses under various boundary conditions and impact locations. Four different boundary conditions, 1) ‘hanging by crane’, 2) ‘standing on styrofoam block’, 3) ‘standing on sand mat’, and 4) ‘standing on concrete floor’ are considered. Finally, variation of frequency response ratio assurance criterion and correlation coefficients of frequency response functions are analyzed.

Connector of multi-modular VLFS is a key component which determines the connection load and the dynamic behavior of the system. This paper presents a new design of the flexible-base hinged connector (FBHC) for VLFS in order to reduce the connection load. The connector consists of a hinged joint and two flexible bases. A finite element model of the connector is established for the deformation analysis to match up the requirement on the optimal stiffness combination of the connector [1]. Further the strength analysis is also carried out to check the safety of the structure design according to the maximum design loads. By applying the connector model to a three-modular floating platform, the dynamic behavior of the platform is analyzed. The results show that the responses of the modules are within the tolerable range and the connector meets the strength requirements.

Abstract After a year of the heat exchanger operation in overload conditions, a number of cracks on the tube connections to the tubesheet have been observed. To explain the stress concentration and crack initiation, a finite element analysis is performed. A three-dimensional model is constructed and analyzed. To calculate more precisely the state of stress in the most loaded regions, a submodel is created. The maximum stress exceeds the allowable stress, and according to the standards, it can lead to ratcheting. To reduce stress concentration, all tubes should be shortened and corrugated tubes are installed in the high-temperature region from the side of the burner. A finite element model of the modified heat exchanger and a submodel are created. In the modified heat exchanger, ratcheting should not occur according to the applied standards. During the operation of the modified heat exchanger, there are no further problems with cracking.
