In this paper, by adopting an equivalent geometry model of the cutting layer, a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model was built to investigate the milling of Ti-6Al-4V. The chip separating process was simulated by Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method and automatic re-meshing technology. The experiments of milling Ti-6Al-4V were carried out to verify finite element model of milling process. The comparisons of the predicted cutting forces and the measured forces showed reasonable agreement. Finally, the finite element model was used to predict the chip deformation and the three-dimensional distribution of cutting force, stress and temperature in milling Ti-6Al-4V.

This paper addresses the modeling and prediction of the normal holding force in an electromagnetic chuck used in precision machining applications. Knowledge of the normal holding force is necessary to determine if a given chuck is capable of preventing workpiece slip during machining. First, an analytic model termed the magnetic circuit model was developed and compared with experimental holding force data. It was found that this model, although simple in form, was limited in its ability to accurately predict the holding force over the entire range of conditions investigated. The discrepancies in the model were attributed to its inability to accurately model the leakage flux and nonuniform distribution of the magnetic flux. A three-dimensional finite element model was then developed to overcome these limitations. Predictions with this model were found to be in better agreement with experiments, yielding prediction errors within 25 percent in most cases. The finite element model also provided an explanation for the observed decrease in the measured holding force at current values beyond a certain threshold. [S1087-1357(00)01503-3]

The process of multi-wedge cross wedge rolling is an advanced precision technology for forming long shaft parts such as automobile semi-axes. Three-dimensional solid model and the finite element model of semi-axes on automobile and dies of its cross wedge rolling were established. The process of cross wedge rolling was simulated according to the actual dimension of semi-axes on automobile utilizing the finite element method (FEM)software ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The required force parameters for designing semi-axes mill are determined. The appropriate roller width was determined according to the length and diameter of semi-axes on automobile. The results have provided the basis for the design of specific structure of automobile semi-axes cross wedge rolling mill.

In this study, non-destructive tests and laboratory tests were carried out in order to determine the material properties in Iznik Yeşil Mosque, Iznik District, Bursa Province. For the purpose of determining the soil characteristics of the building, the soil survey studies conducted in the Iznik Yeşil Mosque area were investigated. The finite element model was formed by making a three dimensional model study of the structure. With the finite element model, static analysis, modal analysis and behavioral spectrum analysis were performed under vertical loads in order to collect data for the damaged areas of the structure.

This paper introduces a combination of testing and finite element simulation for the abnormal vibration of a truck cab in specific speed. Vibration characteristics of the truck is tested. The factors that caused the abnormal vibration of the truck is found. The finite element model is established and the modal analysis is performed, the correctness of the test results is verified, and a reliable finite element model for the follow-up solution is provided. The abnormal vibration was caused by the frequencies of radial force variation which almost equal to the truck natural frequency under the vehicle velocities of 50km/h. The approach described in this paper can be applied to similar vibration problem diagnosis.

A single-axis ultrasonic levitator applied in containerless processing of materials was introduced. It could suspend steel ball with density of 7.9 g/cm3 as well as else material samples easily. The finite element model of singe-axis ultrasonic levitator was developed to study the incident acoustic fields. Three-dimensional distribution of time-averaged potential is focused and the results are successful to confirm some experimental phenomena such as the movement of sample along concave reflector and the deviation of object near the reflector.
