The brake system is very important part of the machine working. The mooring winch brake holds the ship on the harbor. But sometimes it appeared the excessive stress and brake lining would be broken. So it is necessary to change the shape of brake system with improve the durability of brake band. In this research, three models, such as a single brake shoe with a uniform thickness, a dual brake shoe with a uniform thickness, and a dual brake shoe with different thickness, are adopted as analytic model. In order to evaluate the strength of band brake according to the shape of brake shoe, the finite element analysis for three models is carried out by using ANSYS Workbench.

Because both of the volume and the weight of the photoelectric platform are small, the structure of two frames and two axes is used in the photoelectric platform. As the key component of the photoelectric platform, the main frame should have sufficient strength and rigidity. In order to achieve this object, three-dimensional entity model of the main frame is established using CATIA software. Then the finite-element analysis of the model is finished with ANSYS Workbench. Based on the analysis results, the weak links of the main frame is found. Then these links are improved and the main frame is analyzed again. After improving the structure, the results of the finite-element analysis show that the main frame meets the requirements of design and has perfect overall performance.

As a novel robot which mainly engages in the demolition and transformation of various concrete buildings, the demolition robot has developed rapidly in recent years. The impact force is mainly produced by the breaking hammer installed in the front end of the arm. As the most important part of a demolition robot, the boom arm is mainly composed of four parts including a supporting arm, a main arm, a fore arm, and a breaking hammer system. In this article, a mechanical model of the boom arm is established, and the finite element analysis obtaining the first four-order natural frequencies and modes is carried out in ANSYS Workbench. The results reveal that the resonation can be easily stimulated when a hydraulic breaking hammer is at the second-order frequency. The mounting block of the hydraulic breaking hammer, the hinge parts of the supporting arm, and the main arm are easily deformed or damaged in the Y direction by analyzing the deformation in three directions of the second-order mode. After the structure optimization, the vibration characteristics of the two parts are significantly enhanced, which provides a theoretical basis for optimizing the prototype and gives a reference in the experimental modes.

The requirement of increased turn around time and higher pay-load carrying capacity, weight reduction of components and systems is having much attention in railway industry. The present paper discusses about the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) carried out using ANSYS workbench on the modified design of a bolster in light weight freight bogies. The reduction in weight transforms into higher performance leading to lower power consumption. With this present study, although the modified bolster has not undergone any significant weight reduction, but the modifications in design has lead to increase in stiffeness and reduction in stresses generated for various loading conditions. Presently, bolsters fitted with wagons in Indian Railways are in operational for 20.32t to 22.9t axle load capacities for a variety of applications. The existing and modified bolsters are analysed in static conditions for different loads which includes a vertical load on centre plate, transverse loading and side bearing loading and a comparison has been made. The results on the modified bolster has shown 11% higher bending stiffness in vertical direction at the centre and 9% higher stiffness in tranverse direction as compared to the existing bolster.
