The paper makes an analysis of the reinforced concrete beams with exterior FRP Shell in Finite Element, and compares it with the test results. The results show that, by means of this model, mechanical properties of reinforced concrete beams with exterior FRP shell can be predicted better. However, the larger the load, the larger deviation between calculated values and test values. Hence, if more accurate calculation is required, issues of contact interface between the reinforced concrete beams and the FRP shell should be taken into consideration.

The seal is the key part of the cone bit. To reduce the failure probability, a new seal was designed and studied. The sealing performance and structure optimization of the X-O composite seal was analyzed and compared by finite-element analysis. The stress and contact pressure were analyzed to establish the main structural parameters that affect sealing performance and the direction of the structural optimization. By optimizing these structural parameters, including the height, and the radial and axial arc radii, an optimized structure is obtained. The results show that (1) the X-O composite seal can meet the seal requirement, the excessive height of the X seal ring is the root cause of the uneven distribution of stress, pressure, and distortion. (2) A new seal structure is obtained, the distribution of pressure and stress is reasonable and even, and the values of stress and pressure are reduced to avoid distortion and reduce the wear. Finally, the field test results of the X-O composite seal of cone bit showed that the service life of the bit bearing increased by 16% on average and the drilling efficiency increased by 11% on average compared with the original cone bit with the O seal ring.

A kind of force measurement mechanism which can measure the two-directional transient impact load in the same time is introduced in this paper, and the analysis research of the mechanical part are followed. First, by using the pro/E software, the 3D concrete model of the force mechanism is contributed. Then, by means of the ANSYS finite element analysis software, its stiffness and strength are analyzed, and strain and deformation figures from different directions are obtained. The static maximum deformation and strain of the force measurement mechanism and its key components, and also the whole distribution are showed in the analysis results. The weak parts of the force measurement mechanism and its key components are also showed in this paper, which can be helpful for the further improvement and following actual tests [.1]

First, this paper established the seal structural 2D axisymmetric model of a certain Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) and calculated the deformation and stresses at ignition through a large displacement, incompressible, contact finite element analysis. The results show that the maximum contact stress appears at the contact area and the maximum shear stress at groove notch. Then, some typical parameters of the seal structure which might have the impact on the sealing performance, such as the gap breadth, initial compressibility, fillets of the groove notch and bottom, groove width, were analyzed. We can find that the gap breadth and initial compressibility do great contributions to the maximum contact normal stress, and the groove notch and bottom fillets act upon the maximum shear stress obviously. In order to verify the validity of the 2D axisymmetric model, 3D structural finite element analysis of the structure was conducted, and the results indicate that in service, the upper flange is inclined relative to the nether flange, which seems to mean that the gap breadth can not be considered as a constant during the 2D axisymmetric analysis. However further calculations say that if using the minimum gap breadth gotten in 3D analysis as its constant gap value, the above 2D axisymmetric model can rationally take the place of 3D model to analyze the sealing performance. Finally, the failure modes & criteria of the O-ring seals based on the maximum contact normal stress and shear stress were determined to ensure the reliability of this structure.

This paper presents a new approach to the design, testing and analysis of a magnetorheological brake which uses a multi-path magnetic circuit to satisfy the braking demand of vehicles. In contrast with a general braking system, an automotive brake exhibits an outstanding performance for high torques and long reaction times. We use a proposed power-law model and finite element analysis to obtain the magnetorheological braking performance for a high shear rate and a high-intensity magnetic field. Finite element analysis with different structures is adopted to determine the parameters of the magnetorheological braking and the layout of the magnetic circuits. An integrated prototype is also fabricated and tested. The test results show that the brake torque is relatively high, and the torque can be accurately controlled by the input current. The reaction time is less than 100 ms. We also analyse the experimental results and use these as the basis for fabricating a full-sized prototype. The full-sized prototype generally exhibits a high torque capacity and a fast dynamic response, thereby validating the feasible application of magnetorheological fluids in automotive braking.

Owing to strong nonlinearity of shotcrete and difficulty of determining the equivalent material properties of steel-shotcrete composites for numerical analysis, methods are required to estimate nonlinear behavior of steel-shotcrete composite in the computational aspect efficiently. In this study, the behavior of steel-shotcrete composites, main primary supports in the NATM tunnel, are estimated by finite element method using the fiber beam-column element. The numerical results are compared with results of uniaxial and flexural test. Results of comparison show that finite element analysis of using fiber beam-column element can be an efficient tool of estimating the steel-shotcrete composite as the primary support in the NATM tunnel.

In this research, a novel safety escape device based on magnetorheological fluid and permanent magnet is designed, manufactured, and tested. The safety escape device with magnetorheological fluid and permanent magnet can provide an increasing braking torque for a falling object by increasing the magnetic field intensity at the magnetorheological fluid. Such increase is realized by mechanically altering the magnetic circuit of the device when the object is falling. As a result, the falling object accelerates first and then decelerates to stop in the end. Finite element analysis is used to determine some of the specifications of the safety escape device for larger braking torque and smaller size. Finite element analysis results are also used for theoretical study and establishment of the dynamic model of the safety escape device. A prototype is realized and tested finally. The experimental test results show that the operation of the prototype conforms to the prediction by the dynamic model and validates the feasible application of magnetorheological fluids in developing falling devices.

The experimental and analytical behavior of 400 kV S/C portal-type guyed towers under different loading conditions is presented. The portal-type tower essentially consists of two masts extending outward in the transverse direction from the beam level to the ground. In addition, two sets of guys connected at the ground level project outward along the longitudinal axes and converge in the transverse axes. The experimental behavior of the guyed tower is compared with the results of finite element analysis. The 400 kV portal-type guyed towers with III and IVI type insulator strings are analyzed using finite element software. Full scale tower test results are verified through comparison with the results of the finite element analysis. The initial prestress in the guys is allowed to vary from 5% to 15% in the finite element modeling. The effect of prestress variation of the guys on the tower behavior is also studied.
