In this paper, an amendment method for stress and strain of double-curved laminated composite is proposed and studied. According to finite element analysis results of the same model with two different mesh size (coarse mesh size 120mm× 300mm and refined mesh size 30mm× 30mm ), stress and strain have been amended with modified formula in user material subroutine (UMAT) subprogram so that the corrected results of model with coarse mesh is similar to the results of model with refined mesh. Using this method, with coarse mesh, a satisfied accuracy results still can be obtained without refining mesh. It’s efficient for design and analysis of complex structures.

Oil Tanker

This work models the effect of an impact phenomenon—namely the interaction between seabed rock and a ship during its operations—on the ship structure. The collision between a tanker vessel with a conical rock is simulated, a scenario that is similar to the famous grounding of the Exxon Valdez oil tanker. The study uses finite element analysis to simulate numerical parameters that are related to structural response and the contours of the ship hull under impact loading. The traditional element-length-to-thickness (ELT) ratio of 10 is recommended in this work. ELT ratios in the range of 11 to 13 are shown to produce similar results in terms of internal energy, contact force, and structural acceleration. Additionally, the analysis time is reduced by approximately 20% for the recommended ELT ratio. This result is very helpful for researchers using finite element analysis to simulate ship accidents, since the mesh size or length of complex structures is used to maintain the efficiency and accuracy of the simulation results.

Drilling frame on TD165CH Down-The-Hole Drill that has large slenderness ratio and be longer than 10m is one component of Down-The-Hole drill which is mainly subjected to load.In the process of drilling, drilling frame is not only subjected to loads which are like tensile, compression and torsion and so on, and be under the influence of impacting and vibration of impactor,the situation of force is complicated.By analysing of working condition of Down-The-Hole drill,there get all kinds of limit states of typical working conditions, and then using Ansys doing finite element analysis, there get distribution of the stress and strain of drilling frame and the result of modal analysis to check whether drilling frame meets the requirements of strength and stiffness or not,and whether it is possible to resonate with the impactor or not.By analysis,Structure strength and stiffness of drilling Frame on TD165CH Down-The-Hole drill meet the requirements of practical engineering, and drilling Frame does not resonate with the impactor.

The Finite Element Analysis

Modeling and simulation are indispensable when dealing with complex engineering systems. This study deals with intelligent techniques modeling for linear response of suspension arm. The finite element analysis and Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) technique is used to predict the response of suspension arm. The linear static analysis was performed utilizing the finite element analysis code. The neural network model has 3 inputs representing the load, mesh size and material while 4 output representing the maximum displacement, maximum Principal stress, von Mises and Tresca. Finally, regression analysis between finite element results and values predicted by the neural network model was made. It can be seen that the RBFNN proposed approach was found to be highly effective with least error in identification of stress-displacement of suspension arm. Simulated results show that RBF can be very successively used for reduction of the effort and time required to predict the stress-displacement response of suspension arm as FE methods usually deal with only a single problem for each run.

Damage Initiation

The safety predictions of composite armors require a probabilistic analysis to take into consideration scatters in the material properties and initial velocity. Damage initiation laws are used to account for matrix and fiber failure during high-velocity impact. A three-dimensional (3D) stochastic finite-element analysis of laminated composite plates under impact is performed to determine the probability of failure (Pf). The objective is to achieve the safest design of lightweight composite through the most efficient ply arrangement of S2 glass epoxy. Realistic damage initiation models are implemented. The Pf is obtained through the Gaussian process response surface method (GPRSM). The antisymmetric cross-ply arrangement is found to be the safest based on maximum stress and Yen and Hashin criteria simultaneously. Sensitivity analysis is performed to achieve the target reliability.
