Pure titanium TA1 foil with a thickness of 0.05mm under different grain sizes were carried out by the DT-C539 micro-stamping machine in the laboratory. The size effect of the pure titanium TA1 foil with grain sizes of 3, 7, 9 and 23 microns respectively on surface morphology of the microstamping sample were studied. It is found that the stamping samples with good surface quality can be obtained on the condition that the grain size is 23 microns and the stamping speed is 1mm/s. VORONOI model was established by using ABAQUS, NEPER and MATLAB software. Heterogeneous finite element simulation was carried out for the micro-stamping process under the same conditions. The results showed that the simulation results were more consistent with the experimental results.

The monostable acoustic metamaterial is realized by placing a flexible panel with a magnetic proof mass in a symmetric magnetic field. The theoretical model of monostable metamaterials has been proposed. The method of finite element simulation is used to verify the theoretical model. The magnetic force of the symmetrical magnetic field is simplified as the relationship between force and displacement, acting on the mass. The simulation results show that as the external magnetic force increases, the peak sound absorption shifts to low frequencies. The theoretical and finite element simulation results are in good agreement.

Joining two tubes of different diameters has important concerns in many industries and engineering applications. An eccentric reducer is often used in such applications. Therefore, a simple and easy technique for manufacturing an eccentric reducer is of much importance. The simplest technique for producing the eccentric reducers is the tube nosing through eccentric conical dies. In this paper the finite element simulation is used to investigate the eccentric nosing of circular tubes through an eccentric conical die. Simulation is performed to investigate the plastic deformations of the deformed tube and all the possible modes of failure during the eccentric nosing process. Identification of unfavorable modes of failure in the tube nosing process lead to design modification guidelines, design of preform, and the die shape, for the eccentric nosing process. The results obtained confirmed that the modified design of the tube blank not only improves the quality of the nosed-tube product but also reduces nosing load and improves the limiting nosing ratio. Comparison with the experimental results shows that the nosing load and the modes of failure are successfully predicted by the finite element simulation. Also, a preform design for the tube blank that can produce an eccentric reducer with collar end that did not need a trimming process is introduced.

The connection performance of the large taper, multi-thread, variable pitch of screw threaded casing is researched by 3D finite element simulation on ANSYS Workbench. The 3D finite element model is created precisely. The stress distribution on the teeth of three kind variable pitch of screw threaded structure is studied by using the static structure of the contact analysis module. Contrasting stress distribution of the variable pitch of screw with of the equal pitch of screw under the same working condition, it is validated that design principle for the variable pitch of screw connection is correct. The influence of changes in the amount of variable pitch of screw to the whole stress distribution on teeth is discussed. The results show that the force distribution on the teeth of the variable pitch of screw connection is more uniform than equal pitch of screw, and will improve the overall carrying capacity. This study has its practical value to improve the connective performance of the threaded casing and enhance the product quality of threaded casing.

Gear rolling is a manufacturing technique for gears with many advantages like reduced material consumption, reduced scrap generation, fast cycle times, good surface quality and improved final properties of the gear wheels compared to conventional production technology based on machining. In order to make use of all these advantages it is desired to reach the final shape of the gear wheel already after rolling. This means that post treatments like grinding should be avoided. This puts high requirements on the shape accuracy after gear rolling. In this paper it was studied if finite element simulation could be used to evaluate the shape accuracy after gear rolling. The measurement of shape accuracy of gear wheels is specified in standards like ISO1328-1. The allowed deviations from nominal shape are often of the order of 10-30 μm for very good qualities. So if such evaluation shall be possible from a finite element simulation the accuracy must be of the same order. In order to have sufficient accuracy of the finite element simulation 2D simulations were performed on a spur gear. The FE code DEFORM was utilized. The shape accuracy was evaluated for gear rolling of two cases. One case had gears with the module of 1 mm. The other case involved gears with a significantly larger module of 4 mm. This was an interesting case since it is known that it is more difficult to roll the gear with good accuracy in large modules.

Numerous vibrating electromechanical systems miss a rigid connection to the inertial frame. An artificial inertial frame can be generated by a shaker which compensates for vibrations. In this paper we present an encapsulated and perforated unimorph bending plate for this purpose. As basis for system simulation and optimization a new 3-port multi domain network model was derived. An extension of the network allows the simulation of the acoustical behavior inside the capsule. Network parameters are determined using Finite Element simulations. The dynamic behavior of the network model agrees with the Finite Element simulation results up to the first resonance of the system. The network model was verified by measurements on a laboratory setup, too.

This article presents the design and multi-physics coupling analysis of a shear-valve-mode magnetorheological fluid damper with different piston configurations. The finite element model is built to study the effects of the shape of the piston slot and magnetism-insulators at both ends of the piston yoke on the performance of the magnetorheological damper. Particle swarm optimization and finite element simulation are combined to optimize the structural parameters of the magnetorheological damper. The influences of different piston configurations on the magnetic flux density in the working gap, the shear stress, the viscous stress, and the dynamic range are investigated. The simulation results reveal that the magnetorheological damper, in which the corners of the piston slot are chamfered and the edges of the magnetism-insulators are filleted, exhibits a better damping performance. Furthermore, magnetorheological dampers with and without magnetism-insulators are fabricated. The influences of control current, displacement, and velocity on the mechanical performance of the magnetorheological dampers are experimentally investigated, and the experiment results are in accordance with the theoretical derivation and finite element simulation results.

Packaging-induced die-stresses due to temperature effects on various materials of the package are characterized using piezoresistive van der Pauw stress sensors over a temperature range of −180° C to 80° C. Piezo-resistive coefficients extracted previously are then used to obtain a mapping between change in resistance and corresponding stress at all tested temperatures. The obtained values of stress are compared with finite element simulation results.
