Story Building

A three-story old building made up of masonry and wood will be retrofitted to be a new 14-story building, retaining two exterior walls and removing all internal members. To prevent the retained walls form deforming severely or collapse during the retrofit is necessary. The finite element analysis software, ANSYS, is used to calculate the responses of the retaining walls under possible loading conditions. The original retrofit proposal for the old building is refined based on the calculation results.

According to uncertainty of the design parameters for large span truss of installing wave-maker, in order to avoid the waste of materials,the truss is analyzed based on the finite element analysis software ANSYS to find out its weaknesses and various parts of the deformation. On the premise of ensuring the intensity and stiffness, the weight of the truss is reduced by adjusting its sizes and selecting different profiles, so as to achieve the optimization of the truss of installing wave-maker.

The Finite Element Analysis

In the traditional designs of milling cutter, we cannot get the required accuracy of machining as there may be local deformation on the edges, even more the cutter can break down. Aiming at this situation, a finite-element model of straight pin milling cutter with helical tooth are built using Marc, a nonlinear finite-element analysis software, the different cutting forces of the milling cutter during the cutting process are analyzed and the cutting forces of the milling cutter at different parameters are studied. We get the stress, the strain and the temperature distribution of the milling cutter in different situation. Our work offer a theoretical basis of improving stress of the cutter, designing the structure of cutters reasonably and analyzing the cutter failure as well as a new method of analysis and calculation of the cutter life and strength.

Calculation Results

The static and stability analysis of steel structure were taken according to steel structure work platform’s requirements and structural characteristics in a subway parking space by using the software model which is established by Pro/E software and implanted into the finite element analysis software ANSYS Workbench. The maximum deformation and stress in design load of the steel structure were calculated and the linear stress strength analysis of the key parts was carried out, also both the analysis and testing of the supporting pillar’s stability were performed. The results show that the structure model established by Pro/E and the calculation method are reasonable. Moreover, the calculation results are of high accuracy. The profile size is properly chosen and the structure bearing capacity and deformation meet the design requirements.

Based on the requirements of that the finger can move in parallel, and the displacement of the finger can be detected, the micro-gripper driven by piezoelectric actuator is designed based on the displacement amplification structure with the flexure hinge. The static analysis, the modal analysis, the harmonic response analysis and the transient response analysis of the micro-gripper are carried out by using the finite element analysis software ANSYS. The results of the finite element analysis show that the finger is fully able to move in parallel, and can detect the displacement of the finger; the maximum displacement of the finger is about 101 μm, the first natural frequency is about 130 Hz; the finger tip displacement under the 1 μm step input is about 20 μm, the fingertip vibration is about ±2 μm.
