Wing of an aircraft is lift producing component. It makes aircraft airborne by generating lift>weight. The wing must take the full aircraft weight during flying. So, it is very sophisticated task for designing a wing by keeping consideration of every design parameters simultaneously. This paper contains analysis of structural properties of wing by using finite element method. For well-organized design all the variables must be considered from the beginning of the design phase. The design phases for aircraft are: conceptual, preliminary and detail design. Until the preliminary design phase the aircraft structure is not considered. During these phases the material of the wing should be selected in such a way so that it can perform efficiently with less unexpected phenomena (drag) for which responsible properties are displacement, stress etc. Currently the most focusing area for the aero-elastic investigation is to design wing with good aerodynamic shape which will associated with less dragging structural behavior. It helps to reduce SFC (Specific Fuel Consumption) and so the cost. The analysis on that has done through Computational means as well as simulation technique to develop knowledge about the variation of aircraft wing structural properties.

In this study an attempt is made to predict displacements and stresses in face-hobbed spiral bevel gears by using the finite element method. A displacement type finite element method is applied with curved, 20-node isoparametric elements. A method is developed for the automatic finite element discretization of the pinion and the gear. The full theory of the generation of tooth surfaces of face-hobbed spiral bevel gears is applied to determine the nodal point coordinates on tooth surfaces. The boundary conditions for the pinion and the gear are set automatically as well. A computer program was developed to implement the formulation provided above. By using this program the influence of design parameters and load position on tooth deflections and fillet stresses is investigated. On the basis of the results, obtained by performing a big number of computer runs, by using regression analysis and interpolation functions, equations for the calculation of tooth deflections and fillet stresses are derived.

Purpose – This paper aims to study the effect of piston skirt design parameters on the dynamic characteristics of a piston–cylinder contact. Design/methodology/pproach – This paper focuses on an analysis of the piston dynamic response. The oil-film pressure and the structural deformation were approximated, respectively, by finite difference method and finite element method. Findings – The results show that the design parameters such as clearance, offset and the axial location of piston pin have a great influence on the dynamics of the piston and hence on the piston slap phenomenon and the frictional power loss. Originality/value – All the results mainly focus on the slap noise of the engine and can be used in the piston–liner development at the development of the engine.

In this study, periacetabular pressures produced by different acetabular liner geometries were analyzed using Finite Element Method. The cup models consist of hemispherical metal shells fitted with normal and different chamfered polyethylene liner geometries, with the same degree of femoral head coverage. The aim of this study was to understand the influence of the design parameters of the chamfered liners, which are primarily designed to increase the range of motion (ROM) of the hip joint and reduce the risk of impingement, on the acetabular contact pressures. The cup models were loaded to simulate periacetabular pressures during routine activities. The proposed models have been analyzed considering a cup position of 40olateral abduction and 15oanteversion. The results show that the difference in contact pressure between the normal and chamfer models was not substantial in the given orientation of the cup. Also, the increase of the chamfer angle has a small influence on the maximum contact pressures, although that could be also dependent on the reduction of the polyethylene thickness. Pre-clinical testing of total hip prostheses using Finite Element Method enables the evaluation of contact pressures and stress distribution, and proves to be a valuable tool to analyze the parameters reducing the contact pressure.

The main causes of performance variation in tube bending process are variations in the mechanical properties of material, initial tube thickness, coefficient of friction and other forming process parameters. In order to control this performance variation and to optimize the tube bending process parameters, a robust design method is proposed in this paper for the tube bending process, based on the finite element method and the Taguchi method. During the robust design process, the finite element analysis is incorporated to simulate the tube bending process and calculate the objective function value, the orthogonal design method is selected to arrange the simulation experiments and calculate the S/N ratio. Finally, a case study for the tube bending process is implemented. With the objective to control tube crack (reduce the maximum thinning ratio) and its variation, the robust design mathematical model is established. The optimal design parameters are obtained and the maximum thinning ratio has been reduced and its variation has been controlled.

Deep drawing is a complex process influenced by the geometric parameters of the die-punch system. In the present paper we study the behavior of the semi-finished product, in the process of drawing deep cylindrical parts, using the finite element method and the software package of the ANSYS program. In order to reduce the cost and design time, an analysis of the variation of the radius connection is carried out, resulting in low energy consumption, using the finite element method. By analysing the radius of connection of the plate, we identify future directions useful in substantiating the elaboration of a judicious experimental program and optimizing the geometric shape of the finished parts.

In the context of increasing the electronic components integration level, growing functionality and packaging density, as well as reducing the electronics weight and size, an integrated approach to engineering calculations of parts and assemblies of modern functionally and technically complex microelectronic products is required. Of particular importance are engineering calculations and structural modeling using computer-aided engineering systems, and also assessment of structural, technological and operational factors’ impact on the products reliability and performance. This work presents an approach to engineering calculations and microelectronic products modeling based on the finite-element method providing a comprehensive account of various factors (material properties, external loading, temperature fields, and other parameters) impact on the stress-strain state, mechanical strength, thermal condition, and other characteristics of products. On the example of parts and assemblies of products of microelectronic technology, the approximation of structures was shown and computer finite-element models were developed to study various structural and technological options of products and the effects on them. Engineering calculations and modeling of parts and assemblies were performed, taking into account the impact of material properties, design parameters and external influences on the products’ characteristics. Scientific and technical recommendations for structure optimization and design and technology solutions ensuring the products resistance to diverse effects were developed. It has been shown that an integrated approach to engineering calculations and microelectronic products modeling based on the finite-element method provides for the determination of optimal solutions taking into account structural, technological, and operational factors and allows the development of products with high tactical, technical and operational characteristics.
