Cymbal Transducer

The resonance frequency of the cymbal transducer ranges from 2kHz to 40kHz and its effective electromechanical coupling factor is around 20%. Finite element analysis has been performed to ascertain how the transducer’s makeup affect the transducer’s performance parameters. Two-dimensional axisymmetric model of the cymbal transducer was founded by finite element software-ANSYS, the application of the element type was discussed and the FEM models were built up under the far field condition. Eight groups of cymbal transducers of resonance frequency around 3kHz with different structural dimensions were designed. It was better for choosing the cymbal transducer of the 8mm cavity coping diameter, 20.8mm cavity bottom diameter and 26.8mm piezoelectric ceramic wafer diameter than others for reducing distortion degree of the signal and improving communication turnover in the researched cymbal transducers. It was appropriate for choosing the cymbal transducer of the 8mm cavity coping diameter, 22.4mm cavity bottom diameter and 26.4mm piezoelectric ceramic wafer diameter in order to improve the free-field voltage sensitivity and transmission efficient.

Finite Element Meshing

The purpose of this work is to determine the spur gear mesh stiffness and the stress state at the level of the tooth foot. This mesh stiffness is derived from the calculation of the normal tooth displacements: local displacement where the load is applied, tooth bending displacement and body displacement [15]. The contribution of this work consists in, basing on previous works, developing optimal finite elements model in time calculation and results precision. This model permits the calculation of time varying mesh stiffness and the evaluation of stress state at the tooth foot. For these reasons a specific Fortran program was developed. It permit firstly, to obtain the gear geometric parameters (base radii, outside diameter,…) and to generate the data base of the finite element meshing of a tooth or a gear. This program is interfaced with the COSMOS/M finite element software to predict the stress and strain state and calculate the mesh stiffness of a gear system. It is noted that the mesh stiffness is periodic and its period is equal to the mesh period.

Thanks to its greater flexibility and biocompatibility with human tissue, superelastic NiTi alloys have taken an important part in the market of orthodontic wires. However, wire fractures and superelasticity losses are notified after a few months from being fixed in the teeth. This behavior is due to the hydrogen presence in the oral cavity, which brittles the NiTi arch wire. In this article, a diffusion-mechanical coupled model is presented while considering the hydrogen influences on the NiTi superelasticity. The model is integrated in ABAQUS finite element software via a UMAT subroutine. Additionally, a finite element model of a deflected orthodontic NiTi wire within three teeth brackets is simulated in the presence of hydrogen. The numerical results demonstrate that the force applied to the tooth drops with respect to the increase in the hydrogen amount. This behavior is attributed to the expansion of the NiTi structure after absorbing hydrogen. In addition, it is shown that hydrogen induces a loss of superelasticity. Hence, it attenuates the role of the orthodontic wire on the correction tooth malposition.

In order to study the mechanical behavior of the joint between concrete filled steel tubular column and beam with discontinuous column tube at the joint zone under axial pressure, the finite element analysis software ANSYS is adopted for parametric analysis and the analysis results are compared with experimental ones. The principal compressive stress is mainly transmitted by the inside area of the joint which is subjected to local compression if it is low, but extends to more outside areas of the joint if it is high. The radial compressive stress, which is the confined stress of the ring beam to the core concrete of the joint, keeps the same as that the width of the ring beam equal to the diameter of the core area of the joint. The vertical strain on the edge of the joint, which would lead to horizontal annular cracks in the side face of the ring beam, changes from tension in the whole height to tension only in the top part and compression in the lower part of the joint, which is consistent with the experimental phenomenon.

Apparent Fracture Toughness

A finite element analysis has been performed to investigate the effects of warm prestressing of a pre-cracked PTS-D (Pressurized Thermal Shock Disk) specimen, for comparison with the experimental work conducted by the Belgium SCK-CEN organisation under the European NESC VII project. The specimen was loaded to a maximum loading at −50 °C, unloaded at the same temperature, cooled down to −150 °C, and then re-loaded to fracture at −150 °C. This is a loading cycle known as a LUCF cycle. The temperature-dependant tensile stress-strain data was used in the model and the finite element software ABAQUS was used in the analysis. The finite element results were used to derive the apparent fracture toughness by three different methods: (1) Chell’s displacement superposition method; (2) the local stress matching method; and (3) Wallin’s empirical formula. The apparent fracture toughness values were derived at the deepest point of the semi-elliptical crack for a 5% un-prestressed fracture toughness of 43.96 MPam1/2 at −150 °C. The detailed results were presented in the paper.

Coupling beams resist lateral loads efficiently is well known in coupled wall systems. In many cases, geometric limits result in coupling beams that are deep in relation to their clear span. Coupling beams with small depth-to-span ratio shall be reinforced with two intersecting groups of diagonally placed bars symmetrical along the mid-span. It's always hard to optimize construction projects. This paper used the finite element software (Abaqus) to analysis and simulate the nonlinear behavior of a new reinforcement called head bar and compared the results to the current standards.
