A numerical simulation was conducted to investigate the effect of the punching clearance, the thickness of sheet, and the hardness of polyurethane pad on the process of punching by finite element program ABAQUS which based on shear failure criterion and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian adaptive meshing method. And the collapse height dimension and width dimension tendency of the sheet under different control parameters was analyzed after punching process according to this simulation result. The results show that the collapse height dimension and width dimension decreased with the increase of the polyurethane hardness, it means the cross section quality perspicuously has been increased; the collapse height dimension and width dimension decreased with the increasing of the sheet thickness; while the influence of the punching gap is indistinctive.

Owing to the lack of a good theory method to obtain the accurate equivalent elastic constants of hexagon honeycomb sandwich structure’s core, the paper analyzed mechanics performance of honeycomb sandwich structure’s core and deduced equivalent elastic constants of hexagon honeycomb sandwich structure’s core considering the wall plate expansion deformation’s effect of hexagonal cell. And also a typical satellite sandwich structure was chose as an application to analyze. The commercial finite element program ANSYS was employed to evaluate the mechanics property of hexagon honeycomb core. Numerical simulation analysis and theoretical calculation results show the formulas of equivalent elastic constants is correct and also research results of the paper provide theory basis for satellite cellular sandwich structure optimization design.

RASP, also now called VecTor6, is a nonlinear finite element program for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures that uses 3-dimensional stress–strain relation of cracked concrete based on the modified compression field theory. RASP was used to predict the behavior of a 3-dimensional 1:13 scale model of a typical upper dome-cell wall junction of a storage cell in an early Condeep structure. It predicted a flexure-shear failure at the top of the cell wall when it was subjected to a pressure differential equivalent to 129–134 m head of water. Yet, there was deviation between the theoretical and the observed response of the model since the analysis ignored the detrimental effect of water pressure in the cracks. Before applying the results of the pressure test on the scale model to the prototype structure the size effect in shear was examined. It was concluded that because the failure was triggered by flexural yielding the size effect in shear was not significant for this case.

The current paper reports the results of a numerical simulation and experiment of ratcheting behavior of pressurized straight pipe under reversed bending. A nonlinear isotropic/ kinematic (combined) hardening model is implemented into finite element program ANSYS by writing own user subroutine in FORTRAN language. The results of the numerical simulation is compared with experimental data. A reasonable agreement is noticed between the experimental and the numerical results for the ratcheting behavior of the pressurized straight pipe subjected to reversed bending.

This paper presents the results of a detailed analysis of torsional stiffness of a pair of involute spur gears in mesh using finite element methods. Adaptive meshing has been employed within a commercial finite element program to reveal the detailed behaviour in the change over region from single- to double-tooth contact zones and vice versa. Analysis of past gear tooth stiffness models is presented including single- and multitooth models of the individual and combined torsional mesh stiffness. The gear body stiffness has been shown to be a major component of the total mesh stiffness, and a revised method for predicting the combined torsional mesh stiffness is presented. It is further shown tha the mesh stiffness and load sharing ratios will be a function of applied load.

The paper reports the results of a numerical simulation performed to study the experimental pull-out behavior of twisted steel connectors inserted in fired-clay brick units. The experimental results obtained in a previous campaign are used to calibrate a 3D refined numerical model developed by means of the finite element program Abaqus. The numerical model is tuned to accurately reproduce the experimental results in terms of loads and bar displacements.

Soil arch plays an important role in the landslides reinforced by stabilizing piles . A method was presented to determine the range of soil arching ring. The method proposed was achieved by finite element program and the stress distribution of soil arch with different landslide thrust was analyzed. The results show that the thickness of soil arching ring is variable. The mid-span section of soil arching ring is the minimum. The arch ring becomes thicker from the mid-span axis to the arch feet. With the increase of landslide thrust, the soil arching ring becomes thicker and thicker. At last ,the monitoring data of a model test is studied and the results are consistent with that of numerical simulation.
