As the shape of the spatial helical irregular steel sculpture is singularly, this paper studies the structure’s stability and dynamic properties with finite element analysis software in order to determine its ultimate bearing capacity, The structure’s natural vibration characteristics are obtained by modal analysis. The structure’s deformation characteristics within a small time history is also obtained by transient dynamic analysis. Feasibility of the new irregular steel structure is verified by calculation and analysis in this article which can lay the foundation for the development of the irregular steel structure.

Using general analysis software ANSYS establish non-isolated and isolation steel villa structure model, selecting a reasonable seismic wave and obtaining this via seismic excitation time-history analysis: sliding isolated structures can reduce seismic upload, slip shift seismic isolation layer absorbs most of the energy, can reduce seismic response of 23.1%~78.8% compared with ordinary anti-seismic structure. the level of isolation effect is remarkable.

In this paper Ansys, the difite element analysis software, is used to make model analysis on self-anchored suspension bridges achieve the intrinsic frequency and inherent vibrating mode of its first ten bands. Simutaneously, a transient dynamic analysis is made to research the impact of the deformation of the self-suspension bridge under a moving load with the change of the speed, which will be playing a pivotal role in the design and construction of the self-anchored suspension bridges.

In this paper, the finite element analysis software ANSYS is used for modal analysis and dynamic analysis of a cold-formed steel villa to calculate its natural frequency, vibration period and dynamic time history curves. The analysis provides a basis for cold-formed steel villas design and has a certain reference value for similar projects.

Using domestic MFSP membrane as a medium of energy conversion, a kind of MFSP actuator was designed. The dedicated test equipment was constructed for experimental research, and the experimental results were given. The strip and circular MSFP membrane were analyzed qualitatively to obtain the deformation characteristics of membrane by finite element analysis software.

Transient dynamic analysis (sometimes called time-history analysis) is a technique used to determine the dynamic response of a structure under the action of any general time-dependent loads. The time scale of the loading is such that the inertia or damping effects are considered to be important. Present work is focused on performing the time history analysis of a typical locomotive coach using finite element analysis in Indian railroad conditions. Track surface irregularity in the form of an ellipsoidal bump is modelled with assumptions that the vehicle passes over the bump in 0.144 seconds, variation in displacement at different key locations of the truck and car body models is plotted against time under standard loading conditions. The response pattern of the front and rear portions of the locomotive truck and car body indicate that these locations are more susceptible to wheel excitations compared to that of the centre portions of it as they are away from the centre of gravity of the vehicle due to unbalanced mass distribution.

Virtual prototype plays an important role in agile designing and manufacturing. Finite Element Analysis and multibody analysis software can also assist engineers with developing and analyzing sophisticated machines. In this paper, a virtual model of an automobile wiper is modeled and used to be simulated under virtual environment of ADAMS, which is a famous tool in mechanical engineering. After simulation, the vibration and noise that the wiper works with have been found and some suggestions are given in discussion and conclusion.

Abstract. The magnetic levitation linear feed unit is a new type of machine features. In machining, the tool and workpiece interaction force will be delivered to the table and make the deformation, resulting in processing errors of machine tools, machining of precision and surface quality. In this paper we established three-dimensional finite element model of the table of feed unit, use the finite element analysis software ANSYS to analysis of the transient dynamic analysis of the pre-designed table and improve the structure of the table at the design stage and forecast performance of the table and provide a theoretical basis for structure optimization.

Force analogy method is a kind of nonlinear dynamic analysis method. Analyzing inelastic structural behavior by using plastic hinge theory, it is widely appropriate to many structures with different material properties and very time efficient and numerically accurate without complicated iterative computations in traditional algorithm. Compared with the traditional finite-element analysis method, dynamic response analysis based on force analogy method has obvious advantages. The application of force analogy method to a steel structure is presented and the analysis result shows that the method algorithm can represent each response state of the structure in real-time and has the very good accuracy and practical.

This paper aims to estimate dynamic buckling loads of cylindrical liquid storage tanks. Finite element analysis is performed using ANSYS computer program. Twelve different geometries of the cylindrical tanks are analyzed with height to diameter (H/D) ratios of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 and the diameter to thickness (D/t) ratios of 1000, 1500, and 2000 to cover tall and short cylindrical tanks. The dynamic buckling capacities of cylindrical tanks filled with water up to 90% of their height are investigated in this study. The transient dynamic analysis is performed to find the dynamic buckling loads. Applied dynamic loads in this study are horizontal earthquake excitations in terms of acceleration (g) due to gravity. The transient dynamic analysis results indicate that the dynamic buckling loads decrease when the H/D ratios increase, and the dynamic buckling loads decrease when the D/t ratios increase. Design curves for the cylindrical tanks of various geometries subjected to earthquake accelerations are generated.
