The Finite Element Model

In the current study multi-layered thick-walled fibre reinforced composite pipes under torsion loading are considered. To analyse the stress-strain distribution in the pipe the Finite Element model (ABAQUS) has been developed. Using the model the radial, hoop, axial and shear stresses have been calculated for different lay-ups of the fibre reinforced pipes, and modified Tsai-Hill failure coefficients have been computed. The validation of the model was done by comparing the results available in the literature and the semi-analytical three-dimensional elasticity solution. The dependence of the failure coefficient on winding angles and layers’ thickness was investigated and analyzed, and the appropriate design considerations have been suggested for four-layer pipes.

Three Dimensional Elasticity

A quasi-three dimensional elasticity formulation and associated finite element model for the stress analysis of symmetric laminates with free-edge cap reinforcement are described. Numerical results are presented to show the effect of the reinforcement on the reduction of free-edge stresses. It is observed that the interlaminar normal stresses are reduced considerably more than the interlaminar shear stresses due to the free-edge reinforcement.

The Finite Element Model

In order to obtain high-quality analytical results of the finite element model, it is essential to construct a three dimensional geometric model. The paper reconstructed an accurate three dimensional geometric model of cervical spine segments (C4-C7). The process of reconstruction included three-dimensional reconstruction, smooth processing, contour generation, grid generation and fitting surface. Moreover, the result of reconstruction was evaluated ultimately. The model was validated to be smooth and reasonable, and could meet the requirements of finite element analysis. The method is not merely applied to reconstruct the geometric model of the cervical spine. It is a way to construct the model of the skeletal system of the human body.

The Finite Element Model

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]
