This study applies the finite element method (FEM) to predict maximum forging load, billet volume and effective strain in near net-shaped helical-bevel gear forging. Finite element analysis is also applied when designing the near net-shape of a helical-bevel gear, a reverse forming approach to acquire the initial dimensions of the billet based on the forward forging of the helical-bevel gear. Maximum forging load, billet volume and effective strain are determined for different process parameters, such as modules, number of teeth, helix angle and workpiece temperature of the helical bevel gear forging, using the FEM. Finally, the prediction of the power requirement and billet dimensions for the helical-bevel gear warm forging are determined.

This study applies the finite element method (FEM) to predict maximum forging load and effective strain in internal helical gear forging. Maximum forging load and effective strain are determined for different process parameters, such as modules, number of teeth, and die temperature of the internal helical gear forging, using the FEM. Finally, the prediction of the power requirement for the internal helical gear warm forging is determined. Therefore, the maximum forming force and strain distribution will be prediction for the different parameters of helical gear worm forging.

In this paper, the use of the finite element method in conjunction with abductive network is presented to predict the maximum forging force and the volume of billet during near net-shape helical bevel gear forging. The maximum forging load and volume of billet are influenced by the process parameters such as modules, number of teeth, and die temperature. A finite element method is used to investigate the forging of helical bevel gear. In order to verify the prediction of FEM simulation for forging load, the experimental data are compared with the results of current simulation. A finite element analysis is also utilized to investigate the process parameters on forging load and volume of billet. Additionally, the abductive network was applied to synthesize the data sets obtained from the numerical simulation. The prediction models are then established for the maximum forging load and volume of billet of near net-shape helical bevel gear forging under a suitable range of process parameters. After the predictions of the maximum forging force and the volume of billet, the optimum of the power of forging machine and the dimensions of billet are determined.

In friction surfacing process, the temperature field and strain field, especially of coating rod, is considered an important element in analyzing the process’ mechanism and choosing the key process parameters properly. In this paper, the finite element method was employed to simulate the coupling of 3-D temperature field and deformation field of coating rod during friction surfacing. The simulation results show that at the preliminary preheating period, the isotherm goes down at the center part, and the temperature field presents “M” along the radial direction. The temperature increasing rate at the friction interface is higher at first, and then become lower, once the friction system becomes quasi-steady, the temperature here will be stable approximately. The largest effective strain occurs near the center of bottom circle. The simulation results are close to the experimental results, thus builds a basis for analyzing the process’s mechanism, allows for theoretical guidance for analyzing feasibility and helps optimize key parameters.

Abstract The paper describes the intention of the authors to determine whether it is possible to predict relative belt edge endurance for radial passenger car tires using the finite element method. Three groups of tires with different belt edge configurations were tested on a fleet test in an attempt to validate predictions from the finite element results. A two-dimensional, axisymmetric finite element analysis was first used to determine if the results from such an analysis, with emphasis on the shear deformations between the belts, could be used to predict a relative ranking for belt edge endurance. It is shown that such an analysis can lead to erroneous conclusions. A three-dimensional analysis in which tires are modeled under free rotation and static vertical loading was performed next. This approach resulted in an improvement in the quality of the correlations. The differences in the predicted values of various stress analysis parameters for the three belt edge configurations are studied and their implication on predicting belt edge endurance is discussed.

Abstract The finite element method has been used widely in tire engineering. Most tire simulations using the finite element method are static analyses, because tires are very complex nonlinear structures. Recently, transient phenomena have been studied with explicit finite element analysis codes. In this paper, the authors demonstrate the feasibility of tire cornering simulation using an explicit finite element code, PAM-SHOCK. First, we propose the cornering simulation using the explicit finite element analysis code. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed simulation, computed cornering forces for a 175SR14 tire are compared with experimental results from an MTS Flat-Trac Tire Test System. The computed cornering forces agree well with experimental results. After that, parametric studies are conducted by using the proposed simulation.

The aim of this paper is to design and fabricate a star die and a cylindrical die to produce a star shape by redrawing the cylindrical shape and comparing it to the conventional method of producing a star cup drawn from the circular blank sheet using experimental (EXP) and finite element simulation (FES). The redrawing and drawing process was done to produce a star cup with the dimension of (41.5 × 34.69mm), and (30 mm). The finite element model is performed via mechanical APDL ANSYS18.0 to modulate the redrawing and drawing operation. The results of finite element analysis were compared with the experimental results and it is found that the maximum punch force (39.12KN) recorded with the production of a star shape drawn from the circular blank sheet when comparing the punch force (32.33 KN) recorded when redrawing the cylindrical shape into a star shape. This is due to the exposure of the cup produced drawn from the blank to the highest tensile stress. The highest value of the effective stress (709MPa) and effective strain (0.751) recorded with the star shape drawn from a circular blank sheet. The maximum value of lamination (8.707%) is recorded at the cup curling (the concave area) with the first method compared to the maximum value of lamination (5.822%) recorded at the cup curling (the concave area) with the second method because of this exposure to the highest concentration of stresses. The best distribution of thickness, strains, and stresses when producing a star shape by

To research the load upper bracket of Francis hydroelectric unit, then established the finite-element model, and analyzed the structure stress of 7 operating condition points with the ANSYS software. By the strain rosette test, acquired the data of stress-strain in the area of stress concentration of the upper bracket. The inaccuracy was considered below 5% by analyzing the contradistinction between the finite-element analysis and the test, and match the engineering precision and the test was reliable. The finite-element method could be used to judge the stress of the upper bracket, and it could provide reference for the Structural optimization and improvement too.
