This paper presents a highly effective and efficient advanced method for design and development of handling stability systems of mini-cars. In order to design and develop the steering-stability system of a car, a three-dimensional simulation model is built, including the establishment of vehicle suspension, steering, tires and other vehicle systems, using ADAMS software package. This model has been tested through the kinematic and dynamic simulations according to the corresponding test methodology.

By application of the theory and methods of discrete element, a loader loading process three-dimensional simulation model was established, the simulation model established in EDEM software realized the visualization of loader inserting process. By three different particle size materials inserting process simulation, material motion characteristic could be obtained and the laws of motion of different size material were compared. Simulation results show that regardless of the particle size, compaction zone (dense core) were generated. For small particles, during insertion of the material there was a distinct shear slip plane and for coarse particles, slip plane was not obvious. The simulation results were consistent with the results of previous analysis and verified that the discrete element method and the model in the loading process were effective in the study.

A study is reported of heat transfer and air flow in an electronic module consisting of an array of narrowly spaced vertical circuit boards with highly-protruding components contained in a naturally vented chassis. A two-dimensional simulation model is developed that accounts for heat transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation, and sensitivity studies are performed. Experiments are conducted using a specially constructed test module. Comparisons with the experiments reveal the need to calibrate the model by selecting an effective component height that represents the drag properties of the actual three-dimensional component geometry. The need to account in the model for heat losses in the depth direction is also discussed. The importance of accurate thermophysical properties and of multi-dimensional radiation is shown. Good agreement with measured velocities and local board temperatures is obtained over a wide range of power levels, and it is concluded that the calibrated model is capable of representing the thermal behavior of the present module.

The authors build the three-dimensional model of stack-manipulator to aluminum-ingot in SoildWorks,and then import the model into Adams to create a simulation model via the interface between them.Adams runs dynamic and kinematics simulation of the model to measure some kinematic data of manipulator and the contact force of gear part.The dynamic simulations have forecasted the performance of products based on the model well and show the importance of Adams in product development.

To improve the conventional lengthy and inefficient design process for bridge railings, which features repetitions of costly full-scale experiments, and to support the bridge railing design with analytical data, this research developed a three-dimensional (3-D) simulation model that can reconstruct a vehicle-bridge railing impact analytically and visually using MADYMO (MAthematical DYnamic MOdel), developed by TNO. Both the vehicle and the bridge railing are modeled as rigid multi-body systems. A nonlinear tire model and a 3-D suspension are introduced to increase the reality of the vehicle motion during impact. The bridge railing is divided into poles and longitudinal railings. The bending characteristics of the poles and the longitudinal railings are described by the properties of corresponding universal joints attached to them. The simulation model is verified by experimental data of three different conditions using heavy trucks (8 tons and 20 tons). The validation reveals that the 3-D model can reconstruct vehicle-bridge railing crashes with a high degree of accuracy with respect to the vehicle performance and the deformation of the bridge railing, which are the most important concerns in the designs of bridge railings. The validated crash model is then employed to determine the necessary stiffness of the bridge railing under different conditions. Curves describing the relationship between the stiffness of the poles and the longitudinal railings are calculated for various impact severity values. These curves provide analytical grounds for the stiffness designs of the bridge railings.

An 11-segment three-dimensional simulation model was used to modify the body configurations of eight gymnasts performing multiple somersault dismounts during the Men’s High Bar competition in the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games. Four layout double somersault performances were modified to change a characteristic backward arch to a straight body position. This modification reduced the somersault rotation by 0.03 to 0.10 somersaults. Four tucked triple somersault performances were modified so that the thigh abduction angle was reduced to zero. This modification resulted in underrotations ranging from 0.01 to 0.34 somersaults depending on the amount of thigh abduction in the original movement. The additional angular momentum needed for successful completion of the modified movements was small in general and in no case greater than 13%.
