This paper introduces a complex multi-body dynamics model which is established to simulate the dynamic behaviors of a multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing based on the finite element method and the software ADAMS. The finite element method is used to introduce deformable ring-gears and sun-gears by using 3D brick units. A whole multi-body dynamics model is established in the software ADAMS. Mesh stiffness variation excitation and gear tooth contact loss are intrinsically considered. A rich spectrum of dynamic phenomena is shown in the multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing. The results show that the static strength of main parts of the gearing is strong enough and the main vibration and noises are excited by the dynamic mesh forces acting on the tooth of planet-gears and ring-gears.

Based on studying the existing electric wheelchairs for disabled are not well adapted to a variety of road conditions, broken through the structure of traditional wheelchairs, a design proposal that can make electric wheelchair achieve the function of climbing stairs and walking was putted forward and a novel mechanism was designed. The mechanism can make the crawler chassis and the wheels of wheelchair switch when needed, and make the wheelchair travel freely and flexible on the ground or on the stairs. The finite element model of the mechanism was built, and the strength analysis was carried out. The strength analysis provide the theoretical basis for the prototype manufacture.

Based on the multi-body dynamics theory and modal-reduction analysis, finite element method and multi-body dynamics were combined to establish the flexible track model. The rigid-flexible coupled dynamics model can reflect the features of coupled vibration accurately. When the flexibility of the rail, damping and stiffness of support layers under the rail are taken into consideration, the whole track structure acted as a buffer while wheel and rail is interacting with each other. Compared with rigid track model, the wheel-rail vibration is less in the flexible track model. The proposed method in this paper is simple and effective, which makes the calculation of vehicle-track dynamic response more convenient and quick.

This work concerns the implementation of nonlinear modal reduction to flexible multi-body dynamics. Linear elastic theory will lead to instability issues with rotating beamlike structures, due to the neglecting of the membrane-bending coupling on the beam cross-section. During the past decade, considerable efforts have been focused on the derivation of geometric nonlinear formulation based on nodal coordinates. In this work, in order to improve the convergence characteristic and also to reduce the computation time in flexible multi-body dynamics, which is extremely important for complicated large systems, a standard modal reduction procedure based on matrix operation is developed with essential geometric stiffening nonlinearities retained in the equation of motion. The example used in this work is a rotating Euler-Bernoulli beam, two nonlinear reduced models were established based on modal coordinates, the first reduced model created from theoretical bending and axial mode shapes by Galerkin method; the second reduced model is derived by the standard matrix operator from a full finite element model. Transient simulation results of lower degrees of freedom from above two reduced models are compared with those obtained from full nonlinear finite element model.

As more wire ropes with complex construction are used in the hoisting system of a crane, it becomes more necessary to predict the risks of the hoisting operation. Especially the wire rope, dynamic analysis is required to manage the potential risk in advance. Thus, in this article, a co-simulation method based on multi-body dynamics and finite element method is proposed to determine the dynamic responses of a hoisting system and wire rope. We developed a dynamic model of hoisting system based on ADAMS/Cable to formulate the time history response of dynamic force on wire rope, which could be used as the loading condition in the posterior finite element model. A three-dimensional geometric model for the multi-layered strands wire rope with a construction of 1+7+7 / 7+14 wires is implemented in the finite element analysis software ABAQUS, and both static and dynamic analyses are presented. The static analysis result of force–strain relation is compared with several experiment data, and the finite element model is proved accurate and reliable. In the latter case, the force–time curves obtained by dynamic model are imported to finite element model as loading condition to accomplish dynamic analysis. The co-simulation results of hoisting wire rope’s behavior subjected to dynamic loading during the hoisting process are carried out and discussed. The stress distribution and stress spectrum of wire rope are obtained, and the results show that the most dangerous regions are the lateral side of wire rope, especially the contact area of two wires in strands.

In this paper, a theoretical mechanical model for the brake shoe is set up according to the foundation brake unit of railway freight cars, and it indicates that the friction moment is the origin resulting in brake shoe eccentric wear. On this basis, the pressure distribution formula on the brake shoe is derived when the train brakes in forward and backward direction respectively. The analysis results show that if the wheel and the brake shoe are concentric, the ratio of the revolving-in end pressure to the revolving-out end pressure in wheel forward revolving is larger than that in wheel backward revolving. It is consistent with the phenomena that upper eccentric wear often appears on the brake shoe in practice. Further research reveals that the degree of the eccentric wear is determined by the braking force action style, which is the theoretical basis for the design revision. In addition, the RecurDyn Multi-body Dynamics software is used to build the rigid-flexible coupling dynamics model for the foundation brake unit. The simulation experiment verified the analysis result. The research outcome provides the theoretical basis and technical support for further design improvement of the foundation brake unit in railway freight cars.

Stabilizer bar is an important component of the vehicle’s independent suspension system and plays an important role in the safety traffic. Therefore, the research on fatigue strength characteristics of the automobile stabilizer bar is very important. In this paper, the finite element model is established for the automobile stabilizer bar by utilizing ANSYS finite element analysis software. The automobile stabilizer bar’s strength and stiffness are analyzed with the finite element method. It is ensured that the stabilizer bar meets the static strength requirements. At last, the fatigue simulation analysis is carried out. The simulation results illustrate that the fatigue life of the stabilizer bar is about 673400 times and that it meets the fatigue life requirements which must be at least 500000 times in the fatigue test of the stabilizer bar.
