Cable Stayed Bridges

The model tuning through sensitivity analysis is a prominent procedure to assess the structural behavior and dynamic characteristics of cable-stayed bridges. Most of the previous sensitivity-based model tuning methods are automatic iterative processes; however, the results of recent studies show that the most reasonable results are achievable by applying the manual methods to update the analytical model of cable-stayed bridges. This paper presents a model updating algorithm for highly redundant cable-stayed bridges that can be used as an iterative manual procedure. The updating parameters are selected through the sensitivity analysis which helps to better understand the structural behavior of the bridge. The finite element model of Tatara Bridge is considered for the numerical studies. The results of the simulations indicate the efficiency and applicability of the presented manual tuning method for updating the finite element model of cable-stayed bridges. The new aspects regarding effective material and structural parameters and model tuning procedure presented in this paper will be useful for analyzing and model updating of cable-stayed bridges.

In this paper, the bionic membrane structure is introduced to improve the aerodynamic performance of nano rotor at the low Reynolds number. The aerodynamic characteristics of nano rotor made of hyperelastic material as membrane blades are studied. Firstly, based on the hyperelastic constitutive model, a finite element model of the rotor is established and compared with the results of the modal test to verify the accuracy of the model. Then the computational fluid dynamics model of membrane nano rotor is established which combined with the finite element model. The aerodynamic characteristics of the membrane rotor under hovering conditions are studied using fluid–structure interaction method. It is found that the calculation results matched well with the experiment results. The design of the structural parameters such as the membrane proportion, shape, and position of the membrane rotor is optimized. The influence of each parameter on the aerodynamic performance of the rotor is obtained. Under certain structural conditions, the performance can be effectively improved, which provides a new idea for the design of the nano rotor.

Abstract In this study, an additive scaling function based multi-fidelity (ASF-MF) surrogate model is constructed to fast predict fatigue life as well as the stress distribution for the welded single lap joint. The influence of leg length, leg height, the width of the specimen and load in the fatigue test are taken into consideration. In the construction of the MF surrogate model, the finite element model that is calibrated with the experiment is chosen as the high-fidelity (HF) model. While the finite element model that is not calibrated with the experiment is considered as the low-fidelity (LF) model, aiming to capture the trend of the HF model. The Leave-one-out (LOO) verification method is utilized to compare the prediction performance of the ASF-MF surrogate model with that of the single-fidelity Kriging surrogate model. Results show that the ASF-MF surrogate model can better predict the fatigue life as well as the stress distribution.

Fatigue rupture is the major reason of crankshaft parts failure. Traditional fatigue analysis is fairly complicated and causes a great error. The finite element model of s195 engine crankshaft is created under SolidWorks environment, whose static analysis and fatigue analysis is carried out by using Simulation module. Also the vibration character of the crankshaft is calculated through modal analysis. Result shows the fatigue strength of the crankshaft is enough and it will not produce resonance in operation.

The Finite Element Model

A new methodology of combining the finite element model of a complex structure with its model obtained by experimental modal analysis techniques is presented to identify the joint stiffness and the damping characteristics between its substructures. First, the modal parameters of the structure with joints are extracted based on experimental data using Autoregressive Moving Average Vector models. Then, a condensation technique based on the Riccati iteration algorithm and the orthogonality conditions is applied to reduce the matrix order of the finite element model to match the order of the experimental model. Comparing the two models, the unknown joint parameters are estimated based on the least squares method. The accuracy and the effectiveness of the proposed method were verified through simulation studies.

The Finite Element Model

Finite-element modeling and use of appropriate analytical techniques play a significant role in producing a reliable and economic design for ship hull structures subjected to dynamic loading. The paper presents investigations carried out for the dynamic response analysis of ship hull structures using the finite-element method. A simple and efficient interactive graphical preprocessing technique based on the "keynode" concept and assembly-line procedure is used to develop the finite-element model of the hull structure. The technique makes use of the body plan of a ship hull to build the finite-element model through an interactive session. Stiffened plate/shell finite elements suitable to model the hull structure are formulated and used to model the structure. The finite elements take into account arbitrary placement of stiffeners in an element without increasing the number of degrees-of-freedom of the element. A three-dimensional finite-element model and a procedure based on the Bubnov-Galerkin residual approach are employed to evaluate the effects of interaction between the ship hull and water. Mode superposition technique is used to conduct the dynamic response analysis. The efficiency of the finite elements and the procedures is demonstrated through dynamic analysis of a submerged cantilever plate and a barge when both are subjected to sinusoidal forces. The dynamic responses exhibit expected behavior of the structure and a comparison with the results available in the literature indicate superior performance of the finite element and methodologies developed. Thus, the finite-element models and the procedures are found to be efficient and hence suitable for the dynamic analysis of similar structures.
