With the increasing of the quantity of the tunnel, more and more attentions have been paid to the tunnel destruction induced by earthquake. Based on the software of finite element, the finite element model for deeply buried tunnel have been set up; and the responses about different rigidity of tunnel lining under seismic dynamic load has been analyzed by using elastic finite element theory. The conclusions have been drawn that the change of seismic responses by increasing rigidity of tunnel lining is unobvious, and the method using increasing rigidity of tunnel lining to reduce the seismic responses of tunnel is uneconomical.

Aim at the problem of machining integral impeller, a method of using finite element theory to carry out the statics analysis of impeller in this paper is studied. The finite element model is established, and then the nephogram of the impeller stress, strain and total deformation are obtained. The result is attained: in the case of impeller rotation and statics load, the maximum of stress and strain occur at the root of suction surface, the maximum of total deformation occurs on the blade tip position of suction surface, while the maximum deformation position has not changed, which increases with the increasing of rotation and statics load. The data results provide a theoretical reference for the machining of integral impeller.

The traditional limit equilibrium theory could not consider the discontinuous property of rock slope, and the existing research methods for the discontinuous rock mass confined to the Discrete Element Method and Discontinuous Deformation Analysis. Based on the finite element theory, considering the strength reduction of the joint mechanical parameters, the slope stability with one or two sets joints are analyzed in this paper. The results show that, the sliding surface for one set joint slope is close to the joint dip, and the sliding surface for two sets joints slope is close to the control joint dip.

The finite element model of flexible clamp multi-point stretch forming (FCMPSF) was set up, and extensive contradistinctive analysis of forming limit and forming accuracy between FCMPSF and RCMPSF were done. The results show that under the same forming conditions, spherical part formed by FCMPSF is not easy to fracturing, dimpling and springback, and is easy to fit the die. The reason for this was analysed. The non-fracturing limited graph, the non-dimpling limited diagram and the average springback value of spherical parts formed by FCMPSF and RCMPSF were obtained. Finally, the forming experiment and error analysis of spherical part formed by FCMPSF were done, the results indicate that 3D parts with large transversal curvature can be shaped by FCMPSF and the forming quality was guaranteed.

The Finite Element Model

The finite element model of a separately built one-storey underground frame was set up with software ANSYS/LS-DYNA and numerical simulation was done to study on surface overpressure and deformation of the underground frame beam under internal blast loads. It is found that the overpressure peak values on the beam end and middle surface are both much higher when the explosive is below the middle of beam and the peak on the middle surface goes up with the increment of explosive height while that on the beam end surface is not sensitive to the height. The numerical result also indicates that the soil around the frame nearly has no effect on surface overpressure of the frame beam. However, whether there is soil or not the beam deformation has much difference and the increment of the deformation is closely all the same for different soil thicknesses but under the circumstance of thicker soil the beam obtains less deformation upward in a short time after explosion.

In this paper, an elastic deformation of the axial foil hydrodynamic thrust bearing used in 100KW gas turbine generator is studied. The finite element model of the foil hydrodynamic thrust bearing was established using Solidworks and ANSYS. The foil hydrodynamic thrust bearing which considered foil deformation was analyzed and calculated based on the results of the approximate calculation. The FEA model considered the interaction of plane foil deformation and wave foil. The wave foil was not hypothesized as the linear distributed spring when set up the finite element model. The ANSYS results have demonstrated that the deformation of foil bearing designed based on the result of numerical calculation can meet the requirement of minimal film thickness of bearing lubricant layer.

Abstract The application of numerical simulation to wearable airbags for motorcyclists is relatively recent and only few works about this topic can be found in the literature. This research uses multi-physics simulation to analyse a new wearable airbag geometry, primarily designed to protect the shoulders of motorcycle riders, with the aim of assessing the effect of inflation pressure on the protection performance. The finite element model of the airbag employs a simple linear-isotropic material model, calibrated though the comparison between experimental and numerical outcomes of a drop test, together with the analysis of the airbag inflated geometry. The finite element model of the wearable device is then fitted to a dummy model and a human body model, in order to be used in a parametric analysis. Two set-ups are considered. The first is a thorax impact test, used to assess the effect of inflation pressure on chest protection. A modification to the bag geometry is also proposed and tested on this configuration. The second set-up is a shoulder impact test, used to assess the effect of inflation pressure on shoulder protection. In both tests an optimal inflation pressure can be found, but the maximization of shoulder protection proved more critical and should therefore drive the choice of this parameter.
