Stresses were calculated for orthotropic laminate plate loaded by a frictionless pin in a circular hole of the same diameter. These calculations were based on finite-element analysis for five laminates; 00, [±450]s, [00/900]s,[00/±450]s, and quasi-isotropic [00/±450/900]s. stress distribution, based on nominal bearing stress, were determined for wide ranges of the ratios of width to diameter and edge distance to diameter. Orthotropic had a significant influence on both the magnitude and location of the maximum tensile stress concentration on the boundary of the hole. The laminates with 00 plies developed the peak tensile stress near the ends of the pin-hole contact arc. But the ±450 laminates had peaks where ply fiber were tangent to the hole. The finite width and edge distances strongly influenced the tensile stress concentration. In contrast, the finite widths and edge distances had little effect on bearing stress concentration. For the practical range w/d = 2, the peak tensile stresses were as much as 50 percent larger than the infinite-laminate value. For e/d=1, these stresses were greater 60 percent than infinite-laminate value. In contrast, the finite width and edge distance had little effect on bearing stress concentrations.

Two finite element analyses of an involute spline are performed; one is axisymmetrically loaded and the other is nonaxisymmetrically loaded. An entire cross section of both an internal and external pair is analyzed for both models. It is shown that on the axisymmetrically loaded spline the highest stress experienced is the maximum compressive contact stress although the tensile stress in the shaft is also quite high. It is also shown that stress concentrations exist at the root and top of the tooth for both models. Furthermore, on the nonaxisymmetrically loaded spline at low torque, only a few teeth make initial contact, however, as torque is increased, more teeth come in contact. All the stresses remain relatively constant under increasing torque as more teeth are engaged. Once all teeth are in contact stress increases with higher torques. However, the maximum tensile stress (arising from stress concentrations) remains fairly constant, even at high torques, because the stress concentrations that occur at tooth roots appear to be relatively independent of the number of teeth in contact.

Objective: Evaluate the effect of four preparation designs, two ceramic materials, and two occlusion contact types on the stress distribution of ceramic veneer in upper central incisor. Material and methods:  3D-models were performed in the modeling software containing enamel, dentin, pulp, periodontal ligament and a base of polyurethane resin. The designs were modeled and exported to the computer aided engineering software to perform the static structural analysis. For the mesh, a total of 155429 tetrahedron elements and 271683 nodes were used, after a 10% convergence test. Two materials, lithium disilicate and feldspathic ceramics, were simulated. A static load of 100 N on 45º was applied on the incisal and middle thirds of the palatal tooth region, guided by the occlusal plane. The base was constrained in all directions. The Maximum Principal Stress was the failure criteria chosen for the analysis. Results: The Finite Element Analysis showed that the most conservative designs presented less stress concentration on the ceramic veneer. However, the highest tensile stress concentrations were observed on lithium disilicate veneer with extend design, on the middle third. The type of occlusal contact presented different stress patterns among the preparation designs; the incisal contact showed higher stress concentration compared to middle third contact regardless the ceramic material. Conclusions: To perform a ceramic veneer in upper central incisor, the feldspathic ceramic presented promising results and should be recommended when the extended design was done. Regarding contact types, the incisal contact is more prone to failure regardless the ceramic and preparation design.   Keywords Ceramics; Dental veneers; Finite element analysis.

Abstract In high pressure applications, rectangular blocks of steel are used instead of cylinders as pressure vessels. Bores are drilled in these blocks for fluid flow. Intersecting bores with axes normal to each other and of almost equal diameters, produce stresses which can be many times higher than the internal pressure. Experimental results for the magnitude of maximum tensile stress along the intersection contour were available. A parametric finite element model simulated the experimental set up, followed by correlation between finite element analysis and experimental results. Finally, empirical methods are applied to generate models for the maximum tensile stress σ11 at cross bores of open and close ended blocks. Results from finite element analysis and empirical methods are further matched. Design optimization of cross bores is discussed.

Background and Objectives. A key factor for the long-term function of a dental implant is the manner in which stresses are transferred to the surrounding bone. The effect of adding a stiffener to the tissue side of the Hader bar helps to reduce the transmission of the stresses to the alveolar bone. But the ideal thickness of the stiffener to be attached to the bar is a subject of much debate. This study aims to analyze the force transfer and stress distribution of an implant-supported overdenture with a Hader bar attachment. The stiffener of the bar attachments was varied and the stress distribution to the bone around the implant was studied. Methods. A CT scan of edentulous mandible was used and three models with 1, 2, and 3 mm thick stiffeners were created and subjected to loads of emulating the masticatory forces. These different models were analyzed by the Finite Element Software (Ansys, Version 8.0) using von Mises stress analysis. Results. The results showed that the maximum stress concentration was seen in the neck of the implant for models A and B. In model C the maximum stress concentration was in the bar attachment making it the model with the best stress distribution, as far as implant failures are concerned. Conclusion. The implant with Hader bar attachment with a 3 mm stiffener is the best in terms of stress distribution, where the stress is concentrated at the bar and stiffener regions.

This paper deals with the stress discontinuities in shear stress distribution of adhesive joints. The three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) software was used to model the joints and predict the shear stress distribution along the whole beam. The FEA results indicated that there are stress discontinuities existing in the shear stress distribution within adhesive layer and adherends at the lower interface and the upper interface of the boded section. The numerical values of the shear stress concentration at key locations of the joints and the stress concentration ratio are discussed.

By means of a finite element method (FEM), the present study evaluated the effect of fiber post (FP) placement on the stress distribution occurring in endodontically treated upper first premolars (UFPs) with mesial–occlusal–distal (MOD) nanohybrid composite restorations under subcritical static load. FEM models were created to simulate four different clinical situations involving endodontically treated UFPs with MOD cavities restored with one of the following: composite resin; composite and one FP in the palatal root; composite and one FP in the buccal root; or composite and two FPs. As control, the model of an intact UFP was included. A simulated load of 150 N was applied. Stress distribution was observed on each model surface, on the mid buccal–palatal plane, and on two horizontal planes (at cervical and root-furcation levels); the maximum Von Mises stress values were calculated. All analyses were replicated three times, using the mechanical parameters from three different nanohybrid resin composite restorative materials. In the presence of FPs, the maximum stress values recorded on dentin (in cervical and root-furcation areas) appeared slightly reduced, compared to the endodontically treated tooth restored with no post; in the same areas, the overall Von Mises maps revealed more favorable stress distributions. FPs in maxillary premolars with MOD cavities can lead to a positive redistribution of potentially dangerous stress concentrations away from the cervical and the root-furcation dentin.

The paper presents the assessment of the possibility and reliability of the digital image correlation (DIC) system for engineering and scientific purposes. The studies were performed with the use of samples made of the three different materials—mild S235JR + N steel, microalloyed fine-grain S355MC steel, and high strength 41Cr4 steel subjected to different heat-treatment. The DIC studies were focused on determinations of dangerous zones with large stress concentrations, plastic deformation growth, and prediction of the failure zone. Experimental tests were carried out for samples with different notches (circular, square, and triangular openings). With the use of the DIC system and microstructure analyses, the influence of different factors (laser cutting, heat treatment, material type, notch shape, and manufacturing quality) on the material behavior were studied. For all studied cases, the stress concentration factors (SCF) were estimated with the use of the analytical formulation and the finite element analysis. It was observed that the theoretical models for calculations of the influence of the typical notches may result in not proper values of SCFs. Finally, the selected results of the total strain distributions were compared with FEM results, and good agreement was observed. All these allow the authors to conclude that the application of DIC with a common digital camera can be effectively applied for the analysis of the evolution of plastic zones and the damage detection for mild high-strength steels, as well as those normalized and quenched and tempered at higher temperatures.

SummaryTwo-dimensional photoelastic tests have been carried out on uni-axially loaded flat-plate specimens with two collinear edge slits, to investigate the effect of finite plate width on the elastic stress distribution. It was found that the effect of slitlength/ plate-width ratio on the elastic stress concentration at the end of the edge slit of length l was virtually the same as that for a central slit of length 2l in a plate of the same width, and could be adequately expressed by existing theories.

In dissimilar material joints, failure often occurs along the interface between two materials due to stress singularity. Stress distribution and its concentration depend on materials and geometry of the junction as the stress concentration depends on grain orientation and its stiffness matrix of neighboring grains in micro-scale. Inhomogenity of stress distribution at the interface of junction of two materials with different elastic modules and stress concentration in this zone are the main factors resulting in rupture of the junction. Effect of materials properties, thickness, and joining angle at the interface of aluminum-polycarbonate will be discussed in this paper. Computer simulation and finite element analysis by ABAQUS showed that convex interfacial joint leads to stress reduction at junction corners in compare with straight joint. This finding is confirmed by photoelastic experimental results.

Polyethylene (PE) gas pipes can be jointed together by electrofusion PE fittings, which have sockets that are fused onto the pipe. Additionally, electrofused PE patches can be used to repair defected pipes. When these pipelines are buried under the ground, they can experience sever local stresses due to the presence of pipe joints, which is superimposed on the other effects including the soil-structure interaction, traffic load, soil’s column weight, a uniform internal pressure, and thermal loads imposed by daily and/or seasonal temperature changes. The present contribution includes two cases. At first, stress variations in buried polyethylene gas pipe and its socket due to the aforementioned loading condition is estimated using finite element. The pipe is assumed to be made of PE80 material and its jointing socket material is PE100. Afterward, the effects of aforementioned thermo-mechanical loads on the stress distribution in patch repaired buried pipes are well investigated. The soil physical properties and the underground polyethylene pipe installation method are based on the American association of state highway and transportation officials and American society for testing and material standards. The computer simulation and analysis of stresses are performed through the finite element package of ANSYS Software. Stress concentrations can be observed in both components due to the presence of the socket or the repair patch. According to the results, the electrofusion sockets can be used for joining PE gas pipes even in hot climate areas. The maximum values of these stresses happen to be in the pipe. Also, the PE100 socket is more sensitive to a temperature drop. Additionally, all four studied patch arrangements show significant reinforcing effects on the defected section of the buried PE gas pipe to withstand applied loads. Meanwhile, the defected buried medium density polyethylene (MDPE) gas pipe and its saddle fused patch can resist the imposed mechanical and thermal loads of +22 °C temperature increase.
