The aim of the work is to study the ways to strengthen the elements of the parametric architecture object framework based on the use of the new materials. The problem of strengthening the elements of the building frame is particularly relevant in connection with the development of the parametric architecture. Unlike the traditional methods of regulation and amplification, composite materials allow to change the stress-strain state and improve the dynamic characteristics of the parametric architecture object without increasing its own structures weight. The studies were performed using numerical simulation by the finite element method. Recommendations are given on the use of the physical and mechanical properties of the composite materials when strengthening the building framework.

The article is devoted to development of methods for geofiltration calculations with taking into account peculiarities of changes of the rock physical and mechanical properties at water saturation. Methods: mathematical modeling of geomechanical and filtration processes with the help of finite element method and laboratory and underground studies. A mathematical model was formulated for solving a problem of elasticity theory by the finite element method, which took into account peculiarities of water-saturated rocks. Pattern of stress-strain state changing in the fractured water-saturated rocks under the action of critical loads, which occurred around the preparatory roadways during their operation, were established. In order to solve the filtration problems, a bank of collected initial data on physical and mechanical properties of water-saturated rocks was processed with the help of variation coefficients, which were taken into account by the method, which assumed calculation of the model loading with critical parameters.

This paper presents a finite element (FE) modeling of the nanoindentation test of sapphire, in which the finite element method was employed to study the mechanical characteristic of sapphire under the nanoindentation process. The results demonstrated that the nanoindentation FE models were able to simulate the indentation loading-unloading curves of the sapphire. The load and unload displacement curves of the simulation and experiment results can match with each other well, and then the properties used in the simulation should be the actual properties of the sapphire. The Mises stress field distribution of the sapphire sample was calculated to reveal the alteration from elastic region to plastic region, which are useful for indentifying the ductile to brittle change in the sapphire abrasive process.

In composite materials, the use of failure criteria is necessary to determine the failure forces. Various failure criteria are known, from the simplest ones that compare individual stresses with the corresponding strength, to more complex ones that take into account the sign and direction of the stress, as well as mutual interactions of the acting stresses. This study investigates the application of the maximum stress, Tsai-Hill, Tsai-Wu, Puck, Hoffman and Hashin criteria to beech plywood made from a series of plies of differently oriented beech veneers. Specimens were cut from the manufactured boards at various angles and loaded by bending to failure. The mechanical properties of the beech veneer were also determined. The specimens were modelled using the finite element method with a composite modulus and considering the different failure criteria where the failure forces were calculated and compared with the measured values. It was found that the calculated forces based on all failure criteria were lower than those measured experimentally. The forces determined using the maximum stress criterion showed the best agreement between the calculated and measured forces.

The problem of calculating pedestrian railing made of polymer composite materials on bridge structures is analyzed. It is noted that, although methods for calculating various products and structures made of polymer composite materials have been sufficiently developed, however, methods for calculating pedestrian railing are still just beginning to be developed. Normative methods for calculating pedestrian railing are very primitive and do not take into account all the features of their work. The article discusses the application of the finite element method to the calculation of pedestrian railing, and in addition to standard loads, the effect of the wind load and the joint work of the pedestrian railing with the span are taken into account. It is shown that the joint work of the pedestrian railing with the span, even under static loading, has a significant effect on its stress-strain state, increasing it, which in certain cases, in the presence of installation defects, leads to the destruction of the pedestrian railing from polymer composite materials.

The paper presents the results of research on the study of the elastic deformation of a flexible wheel from a double harmonic transmission, under the action of a cam wave generator. Knowing exactly how the flexible wheel is deformed is important in correctly establishing the geometric parameters of the wheels teeth, allowing a better understanding and appreciation of the specific conditions of harmonic gearings in the two stages of the transmission. The veracity of the results of this theoretical study on the calculation of elastic deformations and displacements of points located on the average fiber of the flexible wheel was subsequently verified and confirmed by numerical simulation of the flexible wheel, in the elastic field, using the finite element method from SolidWorks Simulation.

Study is due to the possibility of loss of stability of the pipeline in the process of pumping a product with a positive operating temperature and the formation of thawing halos. The article presents the ways of solving the thermomechanical problem of pipeline displacement due to thawing. The rate of formation of a thawing halo is investigated depending on the initial temperatures of the soil and the pumped product. The developed monitoring system makes it possible to study the rate of occurrence of thawing halos in the process of pumping the product. An experimental study on the formation of thawing halos around the pipeline was carried out on an experimental model. A thermophysical comparative calculation of temperatures around the pipeline on a model by the finite element method has been carried out. Keywords: underground pipeline; permafrost; thawing halo; monitoring; operating conditions; stress–strain state.
