The shaft as an important parts of automobile transmission system, in the process of the car have the effect of rotational speed and torque. Due to the structural characteristics of its low frequency, small stiffness, universal joint, such as the existence of the additional moment drive shaft inevitably exist when high speed vibration phenomenon. So the shaft vibration problems to deal with the vehicle ride comfort, comfort and dynamic performance has important significance. On the basis of the finite element software ANSYS, the physical design of drive shaft. Analyzes the mapping grid finite element model of transmission shaft, facilitate accurate transmission shaft strength calculation. Based on the inherent frequency and vibration model of finite element method to calculate transmission shaft, using experimental modal technology for modal analysis of the shaft, the test results verify the reliability of the finite element model. On this basis, the drive shaft assembly constraint modal finite element analysis, can be used as the basis of further research.

Through the analysis of micro-structures of Z-pin ends the basic hypothesis of elliptic configuration of the resin regions around Z-pin ends were proposed. The finite element model of the tensile modulus of X-cor sandwich was established and the finite element software ANSYS was used in the computation. The effects of Z-pin angle, diameter and density on the tensile modulus of X-cor sandwich were analyzed. Via the analysis of finite element model, the influencing trends of parameters of X-cor sandwich on the tensile modulus are achieved and the error range is ±10%. So the rationality of the proposed finite element model is verified and the finite element model can be used to forecast the tensile modulus of X-cor sandwich.

Through the observation of photomicrographs of resin regions around Z-pin ends, the basic hypothesis of the elliptic configuration of resin regions in the X-cor sandwich were proposed. The parametric equations for describing the microscopic structures of resin regions were given. Then the geometric analysis model of X-cor sandwich was established. The finite element software ANSYS was used to establish the finite element model of the shear modulus and the shear modulus was calculated. The error range of finite element analysis is between ±10%. So the rationality of finite element model is verified and the finite element model can be used to forecast the shear modulus.

The paper presents results for finite element analysis of full-sized girth-welded specimens of line pipe and compares these results with the behavior exhibited by test specimens subjected to constant axial force, internal pressure and monotonically increasing curvatures. Recommendations for the ‘best’ type of analytical finite element model are given. Comparisons between the behavior predicted analytically and the observed behavior of the experimental test specimens are made. The mechanism of wrinkling is explained and the evolution of the deformed configurations for different wrinkling modes is examined. It is concluded that the analytical tools now available are sufficiently reliable to predict the behavior of pipe in a manner that was not previously possible and that this should create a new era for the design and assessment of pipelines if the technology is properly exploited by industry.

Based on the tandem sealing structure at the end of the shaft,a finite element model of rubber O-rings has been established and the sealing performance of rubber O-ring has been analyzed. There is an un-uniform compression among these O-rings which lead to the sealing failure. Under different friction factors, several groups of the rubber O-rings have been analyzed, finding that the friction factor is the reason of un-uniform compression. The effect of different average compression rate has been investigated, which has been integrated in the sealing criteria for the tandem O-rings, providing a reference for the optimization of tandem sealing structure at the end of the shaft. According to the sealing criteria for a single O-ring, the sealing criteria for the tandem O-rings is built.

The finite element model of the concrete mixing truck’s frame is builded by using shell as basic element, and the process of building the finite element model of the balance suspension is introduced in detail. Based on this, frame’s stress on five types of typical operating conditions are calculated by using the finite element analysis software, NASTRAN, and results can show the dangerous position and the maximum stress position on the frame. The analysis result on structural strength can provide the basis for further improving the frame structure.

In this paper, two experimental techniques, Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry and Stroboscopic Interferometry, and two different finite element analysis packages are used to measure or to analyze the frequencies and mode shapes of a micromachined, cross-shaped torsion structure. Four sets of modal data are compared and shown having a significant discrepancy in their frequency values, although their mode shapes are quite consistent. Inconsistency in the frequency results due to erroneous inputs of geometrical and material parameters to the finite element analysis can be salvaged by applying the finite element model updating procedure. Two updating cases show that the optimization sequences converge quickly and significant improvements in frequency prediction are achieved. With the inclusion of the thickness parameter, the second case yields a maximum of under 0.4% in frequency difference, and all parameters attain more reliable updated values.

In this article the finite element software was used to analyse the values for compressive strength of X-cor sandwich. During the analysis, the failure criteria and materials stiffness degradation rules of failure mechanisms were proposed. The failure processes and failure modes were also clarified. In the finite element model we used the distributions of failure elements to simulate the failure processes. Meanwhile the failure mechanisms of X-cor sandwich were explained. The finite element analysis indicates that the resin regions of Z-pin tips fail firstly and the Z-pins fail secondly. The dominant failure mode is the Z-pin elastic buckling and the propagation paths of failure elements are dispersive. Through contrast the finite element values and test results are consistent well and the error range is -7.6%~9.5%. Therefore the failure criteria and stiffness degradation rules are reasonable and the model can be used to predict the compressive strength of X-cor sandwich.

The CAD software was used to establish 3D model of frame of dump truck, and the finite element model was established through Hyper Mesh. The stress distributions of the frame in vertical accelerating, turning, twisting and climbing conditions were computed through finite element software when the dump truck was loaded 80t. The result is consistent with the actual situation of the frame, which proved that the approach of finite element analysis is feasible. And we proposed the improved method of the frame according to finite element results.

In this paper, in order to understand fully the development of failure mechanism, bearing capacity and seismic performance of the steel H-beams and composite concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) column joints strengthened by outside strengthening ring, in the space zone the effects of changing the axial compression ratio is investigated. A 3D joint finite element model is built up by finite element software ABAQUS, the elastic-plastic finite element analysis is carried through numerical modeling process. The analysis results showed that low axial compression ratio has a little influence on the bearing capacity; with the increase of axial pressure the bearing capacity will decrease in a high axial compression ratio, moreover the failure pattern of joint changes from beam end to column end. The ductility of the specimens is decreased by raising axial compression ratio.
