As lifting points for ship block turning over and hoisting operation, the strength of the lifting eye directly affects the safety of the operation, therefore it is required for extreme high reliability. The conventional strength analysis can not exactly describe the actual stress and working conditions of the lifting eye, nonlinear contact and simplified finite element arithmetic are used for analyzing and checking the lifting eye's strength in this paper; and the stress force distribution formula, which can well reflect the true status of the pressure-bearing surface, is researched. Through the comparison of the various calculation methods, it can be found that the reasonable simplified method can approach the nonlinear contact finite element arithmetic with high precision and is characterized with higher calculation speed and more concise and practicable.

A Compliant XY micropositioning stage is purported for situating a material sample in nanoindentation tester process. This paper aims to develop, analyze and optimize a XY compliant micropositioning stage. The working stroke of proposed XY stage is amplified by combining the four-lever and a bridge amplification mechanism. To enhance the performances of the stage, the main geometric parameters are optimized by an integration method of Taguchi method, response surface method (RSM) and genetic algorithm (GA). Firstly, static analysis and dynamic analysis are conducted by the finite element analysis in order to predict initial performances of the XY stage. Secondly, the number of experiments and the data are retrieved by combination of the finite element analysis-integrated Taguchi method. Thirdly, the effects of main design variables on the output response sensitivity are considered. Later on, mathematical model for the amplification ratio was established by the RSM. Finally, based on the mathematical equation, the GA is adopted to define the optimal design variables. The results of numerical validations are in a good agreement with the predicted results. The results depicted that the proposed hybrid approach ensures a high reliability for engineering optimization problems.

The static and stability analysis of steel structure were taken according to steel structure work platform’s requirements and structural characteristics in a subway parking space by using the software model which is established by Pro/E software and implanted into the finite element analysis software ANSYS Workbench. The maximum deformation and stress in design load of the steel structure were calculated and the linear stress strength analysis of the key parts was carried out, also both the analysis and testing of the supporting pillar’s stability were performed. The results show that the structure model established by Pro/E and the calculation method are reasonable. Moreover, the calculation results are of high accuracy. The profile size is properly chosen and the structure bearing capacity and deformation meet the design requirements.

Abstract The presented strength and fatigue calculations refer to an unsupported deck crane and its three distinct parts: housing, jib and column. Static loads applied to the structure were due to the crane’s own weight and a maximum working load, corresponding to a maximum lifting capacity at a maximum outreach of the crane. The numerical analysis was aimed at determining the thickness of the skin plating of the column and the number, shape and distribution of stiffeners in the column, housing and jib, ensuring that the crane yields correct strength and fatigue parameters. During the process of designing marine structures, the standard numerical analysis is, in many cases, limited to calculations in the basic strength range. Even when using numerical methods of analysis, complex strength and fatigue calculations are often not performed. The modern numerical analysis chain for marine structures should concentrate not only on strength analysis, but should take a further step, which encompasses fatigue analysis. The article presents a new outlook on design methods, which should be the entry point to the design of marine structures. Based on the acquired number of cycles of fatigue life, it is possible to estimate, with a sufficient degree of accuracy, the practical service life of a structure. To solve the problem, the authors used the finite element analysis software ABAQUS supported by the fe-safe system.

It was incomplete and may have missed some dangerous working conditions to select several typical working conditions only in traditional strength analysis of hydraulic excavator. Therefore, the paper proposes a strategy that takes the working conditions when the load at each hinge of working device reaches largest into account. The working device of a 21t hydraulic excavator was analyzed with finite element analysis method when comparing these working conditions with the traditional typical ones. The results come out that the largest stress of boom, arm and bucket under these conditions increased respectively by 4.6%, 5.6% and 19.1% compared with the traditional most dangerous conditions. Consequently, in addition to the traditional typical conditions, it will be more safe and reliable to analyze the strength with the largest hinge loads conditions.

Accurately predicting the burst strength is very important in the casing design for the oil and gas industry. In this paper, finite element analysis is performed for an infinitely long thick walled casing with geometrical imperfections subjected to internal pressure. A comparison with a series of full-scale experiments was conducted to verify the accuracy and reliability of the finite element analysis. Furthermore, three predictive equations were evaluated using the test data, and the Klever equation was concluded to give the most accurate prediction of burst strength. The finite element analysis was then extended to study the effects of major factors on the casing burst strength. Results showed that the initial eccentricity and material hardening parameter had important effects on the burst strength, while the effect of the initial ovality was small.
