There are some disadvantages in the concrete pouring method of column beam joints of super high-rise structures. If the concrete of joint core use the same strength grade with beams and plates, and pouring with them together, the construction process will be simplified and the construction quality will be easier to ensure. But the concrete strength of joint core is reduced, so whether the resistant behavior of the structure can be able to meet the design requirements is the key problem we focus on. The finite element model of a super high-rise structure was established by MIDAS software, the holistic resistant behavior of the structure was analyzed to study the effect of joint core concrete strength on the whole structure. The study provides the basis for further exploring a more reasonable pouring method of the concrete of the joints.

In the construction process of super high-rise structures, in order to simplify the construction process and ensure the construction quality, the construction team always make the concrete of joint core use the same strength grade with beams and plates, and pouring with them together. So that the concrete strength of joint core fail to meet the design requirement, whether the resistant behavior of the structure can be able to meet the design requirements is the key problem we focus on.

Two structural schemes of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Immersed Tunnel were compared. In Scheme 1, the prestressed reinforcing bars were to be cut off after installation. And in Scheme 2, the prestressed reinforcing bars will be kept there as they were after installation. A finite element model for sections E12~E15 was built by using the finite element software PLAXIS with consideration to the construction process and different loading conditions to analyze both schemes. The calculation results show that they both meet the design requirements.

Cable Stayed Bridges

The model tuning through sensitivity analysis is a prominent procedure to assess the structural behavior and dynamic characteristics of cable-stayed bridges. Most of the previous sensitivity-based model tuning methods are automatic iterative processes; however, the results of recent studies show that the most reasonable results are achievable by applying the manual methods to update the analytical model of cable-stayed bridges. This paper presents a model updating algorithm for highly redundant cable-stayed bridges that can be used as an iterative manual procedure. The updating parameters are selected through the sensitivity analysis which helps to better understand the structural behavior of the bridge. The finite element model of Tatara Bridge is considered for the numerical studies. The results of the simulations indicate the efficiency and applicability of the presented manual tuning method for updating the finite element model of cable-stayed bridges. The new aspects regarding effective material and structural parameters and model tuning procedure presented in this paper will be useful for analyzing and model updating of cable-stayed bridges.

Abstract The objective of this study is to develop a finite element model of the human thorax with a protective body armor system so that the model can adequately determine the thorax’s biodynamical response from a projectile impact. The finite element model of the human thorax consists of the thoracic skeleton, heart, lungs, major arteries, major veins, trachea, and bronchi. The finite element model of the human thorax is validated by comparing the model’s results to experimental data obtained from cadavers wearing a protective body armor system undergoing a projectile impact.

Abstract Stress analysis and determination of eigen pairs of a typical turbocharger compressor impeller have been carried out using the concept of cyclic symmetry. A simplified model treating the blade and the hub as isolated elements has also been attempted. The limitations of the simplified model have been brought out. The results of the finite element model using the cyclic symmetric approach have been discussed.

Due to the environment, climate, loads and other factors, the pre-stress applied to the beam is not a constant. It is important for engineers to track the state of the pre-stress in order to ensure security of the bridge in service. To solve the problem mentioned above, the paper puts forward a new way to analyze the effective pre-stress using the displacement inversion method based on the inversion theory according to the measured vertical deflection of the bridge in service at different time. The method is a feasible way to predict the effective pre-stress of the bridge in service. Lastly, taking the pre-stressed concrete continuous rigid frame bridge for example, the effective pre-stress is analyzed by establishing the finite element model.

The paper considers the construction of a piezoelectric accelerometer capable of measuring constant linear acceleration. A number of designs are proposed that make it possible to achieve high sensitivity with small dimensions and a wide frequency band (from 10−5 Hz). The finite element model of the proposed design was investigated, and its output characteristic and scale factor (36 mV/g) were obtained.

Purpose This paper aims to research the influence of pressure, friction factors, roughness and actuating speed to the mixed lubrication models of outstroke and instroke. Design/methodology/approach Mixed lubrication model is solved by finite volume method, which consists of coupled fluid mechanics, deformation mechanics and contact mechanics analyses. The influence of friction factor on the finite element model is also considered. Then, contact pressure, film thickness, friction and leakage have been studied. Findings It was found that the amount of leakage is sensitive to the film thickness. The larger the film thickness is, the greater the influence received from the friction factor, however, the effect of oil film on the friction is negligible. The friction is determined mainly by the contact pressure. The trend of friction and leakage influenced by actuating velocity and roughness is also obtained. Originality/value The influence of friction factor on the finite element model is considered. This can make the calculation more accurate.
