A novel three-axis compliant mechanism is presented. Three original constraints are selected from the freedom and constraint complement topology chart. A compliant mechanism with three rotation freedoms is designed. Constraint 2 and Constraint 3 is designed as a whole to improve the precision and natural frequency. The finite element model is established. And the natural frequency and the main vibration mode are obtained. The deformation of the rotation axis is small. The input and output of the compliant mechanism is decoupled.

Based on the method of Freedom and Constraint Topology (FACT), a compliant mechanism with 3 degrees of freedom is designed. The 3 DOF are one movement and two rotations, which belongs to Case 3, Type 2. The whole stiffness matrix of the compliant mechanism is obtained. The finite element model is established for statics analysis. The results of theory analysis and finite element method are closed.

In order to research the dynamic characteristics of drive roll, finite element model of the drive roll was set up by ANSYS/Workbench. The drive roll’s natural frequency and vibration mode concerned in reality were acquired based on modal analysis, deformation trend and size of each mode shape were analysed, then deformation of the weak positions about each mode was cleared, and some measures about improving its dynamic characteristics were proposed, all of these offered a support to strengthen drive roll’s damping property.

The vibration mode of main steel structure of bucket wheel stacker reclaimer is complex and changeable, so its modal analysis is necessary. In this paper, the main steel structure of bucket wheel stacker reclaimer was integrally designed and its main parameters were determined. then the finite element model of the main steel structure of the bucket wheel stacker reclaimer was established and the modal analysis was simulated, finally the results of its inherent frequency were calculated by FEA method.

Based on Miyamoto’s method, the natural frequency of prestressed box girder with corrugated steel webs considering the impact of external tendons was obtained. And the result was modified based on the finite element model. It shows that: the external tendons will reduce the natural frequency of bridge with reduced range of about 3%. Beneficial references were provided to the layout of external tendons in order to avoid the resonance between the box girder with corrugated steel webs and the external tendons.

In order to solve a problem that the running of ramming chain is unstable and master each order natural frequency and deformation characteristics of the chain, the method of theoretical calculation and finite element analysis with software ANSYS is used on the natural frequency of the calculation and analysis. By comparing the data obtained from two methods to verify the correctness of the finite element model, the model is used to analyze natural frequencies and corresponding vibration mode of the ramming chain. The results show that under the low order natural frequency, the main deformation of the ramming chain is the lateral bending, longitudinal bending and torsion deformation, so the results provide the basis to master the deformation of the chain.

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.
