        In this paper, the optical images of glow discharge plasma and the finite element method simulation of the magnetic field strength in a balanced and two types of unbalanced DC circular planar magnetron sputtering sources are presented. The investigation showed that wherever the magnetic field strength is stronger, the intensity of light and the ionization are greater and consequently, the deposition is higher. The comparison of recorded optical images with the finite element simulation results of the magnetic field strength indicated the correlation between regions of high magnetic field strength and high light emission. تفاصيل المقالة

        AbstractThe present paper is concerned with the free vibration analysis of double-walled carbon nanotubes embedded in an elastic medium and based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. The effects of the transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia are included according to the Timoshenko beam theory. The governing equations of motion which are coupled with each other via the van der Waals interlayer forces have been derived using Hamilton's principle. The thermal effect is also incorporated into the formulation. Using the statically exact beam element with displacement fields based on the first order shear deformation theory, the finite element method is employed to discretize the coupled governing equations which are then solved to find the natural frequencies. The effects of the small scale parameter, boundary conditions, thermal effect, changes in material constant of the surrounding elastic medium, and geometric parameters on the vibration characteristics are investigated. Furthermore, our analysis includes nonlocal double-walled carbon nanotubes with different boundary conditions between inner and outer tubes which seem to be scarcely considered in the literature, and the corresponding given results for this case can be considered as a benchmark for further studies. Comparison of the present numerical results with those from the open literature shows an excellent agreement. تفاصيل المقالة

        In recent years, composites have been used to reduce the overall weight of the structure and reduce the consumption of fossil fuels in aircraft due to their light weight property. The purpose of this study is to investigate the interlayer stresses created in composite layers due to the effect of free edges. In fact, in this study, the distribution of stresses affected by free edges (interlayer stresses) that create force and torque in the direction of thickness is investigated. For this purpose, the changes of the mentioned stresses with the help of numerical modeling for multilayer composite by finite element method are investigated by Abacus software and the environmental effects of composite materials are also discussed. Finally, the effect of different layers on this phenomenon in terms of thickness and width of several composite layers under axial tensile load will be investigated. As a result, on one hand the extended usage of green materials like composites can potentially reduce the previous heavy metallic structures which use more fuel and have much more environmental side effects, and on another hand some stress analytical results such as symmetrically distribution of , asymmetrically distribution of across the width of multilayer and other discoveries for angle-ply and quasi-isotropic multilayers due to the effect of free edge are gained. تفاصيل المقالة

        Ultrasonic welding is gaining popularity for joining of thin and dissimilar materials and foils in the fabrication of automotive Li-ion battery packs because of excellent efficiency, high production rate, high welding quality, etc. Precise control of the parameters of the welding process plays an important role in achieving good joint quality. Numerical simulation can greatly help control the main input parameters such as frequency, clamping pressure, friction coefficient, and vibration amplitude. In this present work, a three-dimensional thermo-mechanical Finite Element (FE) model is proposed using ABAQUS/EXPLICIT for the dissimilar Al to Cu weld to predict the deformation and temperature as output parameters during welding process by varying input parameters. The simulation results showed that the clamping pressure, vibration frequency and friction coefficient have a great influence on heat production during the process which was critical to determine the final quality of the welded joint. Studies also showed that increased clamping force and welding frequency led to increased deformation. تفاصيل المقالة

        For rolling pneumatic tires, the thermal induced effects are mainly resulted from visco-elastic behaviour of rubber parts and dissipation of stores strain energy during the cyclic deformations. It is noted that the operating conditions crucially contribute to the rubber hysteresis effect and temperature development in a rolling tire. In current study, an elaborated 3D FE model is worked up for simulating the certain inflation pressure, loading and velocity conditions for a specified radial tire. Special emphasis is given to transient temperature distribution of interior walls and tire cavities as critical zones. Compared with the experimental tests, the current study gives satisfactory results for time rate of change in temperature of tire walls and inside inflated air. تفاصيل المقالة

        In recent years, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has been known as a powerful and efficient tool for surface imaging in different environment. To enhance image quality and more precise prediction of Micro-cantilever (MC) behaviour, accuracy in the MC modeling and simulation and detecting the MC sensitivity to geometric parameters has great importance. To model the vibration motion of the AFM non-uniform piezoelectric MC, Timoshenko beam theory is used in order to consider the effect of shear effect in air and liquid environment. In addition, the effect of the forces imposed by the ambient and sample surface is considered. Frequency response has been studied in the air and different liquid environments and the obtained results have been compared with experiential results as well as with results obtained from Euler-Bernoulli beam theory that is reflective of higher precision exercised in the modeling in respect to Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Efast statistical method, which is found efficient and quick in the survey of linear and nonlinear models and takes the inter-parameter coupling effect into consideration besides calculating the sensitivities unique to each of the factors, has been applied in order to analyse the geometrical parameters’ effects on the MC natural frequencies in the air and water environments. تفاصيل المقالة

        the amount of rotten tooth that is come out of teeth is an important issue in dental filling because of its effects on strength of teeth. The main goal of this study is to determine a criterion for the amount of rotten tooth which can be brought out. To do so, first, a three-dimensional finite element model of the complex shape of Right First Molar Mandibular has been established. Then, cylindrical holes with different values of height and diameter (diameter of holes from 3 mm to 8 mm and height of 3 mm to 5.9 mm) is created on the cusp of the tooth. A uniform pressure (from 10 Pa to 10 kPa) is applied around the tooth resembling the belt which is utilized in reality. According to the obtained displacement and stress contours, the diameter of tooth hole can be increased up to 7 mm for pressures under 10 Pa while for higher pressures, the diameter of tooth hole can just be increased up to 6 mm. In addition, due to sudden increase in stress at a pressure of 10 kPa, increasing the value of pressure to higher values is not recommended. تفاصيل المقالة

        Forging of gas turbine blades needs a close control of the process parameters. These parameters require a suitable optimization method to achieve the best process conditions. This paper presents a hybrid method for the optimization of the forging process of an aerofoil blade. Forging process of the aerofoil blade was simulated using 3-dimentional finite element method. Preform shape and die parting-line angle are optimized in order to minimize the volume of the unfilled die cavity, material waste, and forging forces. The overall optimization scheme used in this research work includes a multi-objective approach that is a combination of response surface and finite element methods. The results show that the proposed optimization approach accrued to decrease the flash volume and the forging force of the aerofoil forging process. Therefore the proposed algorithm is a suitable method for the optimization of the gas turbine blade forging processes. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this article, finite element method and ALE formulation were used to numerically simulate impact of low-velocity specific projectiles with water surface. For the simulation, Ls-Dyna finite element code was used. Material models which were used to express behavior of air and water included Null material model. For the projectile, plastic-kinematics material model was applied. Mie-Gruneisen equation of state was also attributed to air and water. First, the results were validated by analyzing the impact of metallic cylinder with water surface and then impact of a mine as a low-velocity projectile was simulated. Among major outputs were force and pressure applied to the projectile, velocity and acceleration variations upon entering water, stress-strain variations and variations of water surface in various steps of analysis. The results showed that impact of structure with fluid can be modeled using finite element model with high accuracy in terms of quality and quantity. تفاصيل المقالة

        FGM dental implants are a very good alternative with respect to homogenous implants. In this study by focusing on mechanical property as one of the most important factors in implant design, the static behaviour of Ti/Nanostructure HA (hydroxyapatite) FGM dental implant has been fabricated and investigated experimentally and numerically. At the first step, the nanostructure hydroxyapatite powders were synthesized by natural origin. At the second step, the initial powders were cold compacted in order to fabricate Ti/HA FGM samples for 4 different volume fraction exponents (N=1/3, 2/3, 1, 2). Then the compacted powders have been sintered using a vacuum furnace, in which compressive strength of each particular sample was finally assessed. A three-dimensional geometrical model of FGM dental implant system and surrounding bone was created by using the macro programming language in ANSYS software and then finite element analysis under static forces was performed. Finally the experimental results strength tests were compared with numerical solutions. According to the results, the FGM dental implants made of Ti/HA under static forces were sufficiently safe. As a result, FGM sample with volume fraction exponent of N=2/3 was chosen as the best sample. تفاصيل المقالة

        For making rivet and bolt connections, making a hole is necessary. While basic S-N graph can be extracted from design documents, analysis of stress can be used for two different approaches. The first approach is the theoretical derivation of analytical relations with simplified assumptions like planar stress or uniform bolt load distribution. The other one is the numerical simulation using robust codes like Abaqus software. By using these two approaches, residual stress distribution around the hole can be extracted in various conditions. In this experiment, an aluminium 2024-T3 plate with 3.2 mm thickness is considered. The stress analysis results and basic S-N graph were combined and discursive S-N graphs were obtained for different cold-expanded bolted holes. These graphs were compared with experimental data in several steps. First, the bolt fastening was considered. In the second step, cold expansion was considered and in the final step, the effects of fastening bolts and nuts and cold expansion was considered simultaneously. At last, a comparison between various steps was drawn. The results of this study showed that this new analytical method on distribution of residual stresses around cold expansion holes is as effectiveness as old methods. تفاصيل المقالة

        Metal bipolar plates are the most important parts of the fuel cells and recently these plates are used instead of graphite ones.In the present study, gas blow forming of a pin-type aluminum 5083 bipolar plate has been studied. After the simulation of the process, the FE model has been validated using experimental results. Then, the effects of parameters including maximum pressure of the gas, pressurization profile and corner radius of the pin on thinning ratio and forming depth of final part have been investigated. Nine experiments were designed using the Taguchi L9 orthogonal array and the experiments were performed using the FE model. The signal to noise (S/N) ratio and the analysis of variance (ANOVA) techniques were carried out to determine the effective parameters and the contribution of each parameter. The maximum pressure of 1.2 MPa, SP2 pressurization profile and corner radius of 0.2 mm lead to the minimum thinning ratio. Also, it was found that to maximize the forming depth, the maximum pressure of 2 MPa, SP1 pressurization profile and corner radius of 0.3 mm should be selected. Also, ANOVA analysis showed that the most significant parameters on thinning ratio and forming depth are corner radius and maximum pressure, respectively. تفاصيل المقالة

        A plain strain analysis of frictional rolling contact on an elastic graded coating is presented in this paper. Finite element method is applied to gain an understanding of the stresses and contact zone properties caused during rolling contact. The effects of friction, material stiffness ratio and coating thickness on stresses in contact zone and coating/substrate interface are studied. Shear modulus of softening and stiffening graded coatings change with exponential, power law and linear functions. The substrate is homogenous and the rigid cylindrical roller moves in a steady state condition with constant velocity. The coating is modeled in multi layers and a 2-D hard contact of rolling surfaces is considered. The analytical results verify the present method and show a good agreement. It is shown that thinner thicknesses have more effects on stresses and energy density, but these effects are not seen for thicknesses larger than a specific limit. تفاصيل المقالة

        An attempt was made to investigate the thermal and residual stress distribution in a novel three layer (La2Zr2O7/8YSZ/NiCrAlY) during a real-like heating regime which includes heating, service time and final cooling. For achieving maximum accuracy and consistency in calculation of thermal and mechanical properties of hybrid coating system, all related and required properties were introduced to the software in temperature-dependent mode. Element modification approaches like mass scaling leads to a considerable reduction in running time while satisfying and not violating accuracy and converging criteria and constrains. Applying adaptive hybrid meshing techniques which applies both mesh–part dependency and independency during numerical iterative solution avoids element distortion and diverging in coupled problem. Heat flux and nodal temperature contours indicated that, most of damaging and harmful thermal load and residual stresses concentrate on ceramic top coats and this may lead less harm and life time reduction in the substrate. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nowadays, with the growing use of AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) nanorobots in the fabrication of nanostructures, research in this area has been proliferated. The major limiting of manipulation process is the lack of real-time observation. Computer simulations have been widely applied to improve the feasibility of the process. The existing 2D strategies are incapable of presenting the feasibility of the process. Therefore, 3D simulations of effective forces during the manipulation process and the control mechanism of the process have been presented in this research, where the effective parameters are investigated. To evaluate the validity of the presented results, a FEM simulation is proposed. It is observed that the two sets of results (the analytical method and the finite element approach) have adequate correlation, while the discrepancy which is in an acceptable range, is due to the different solving technique of the finite element method. By applying the presented models, it is now possible to accurately predict the effective forces for fabricating the nanostructures. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, stress concentration in the thin cylindrical shell with rectangular cutout subjected to uniform axial pressure was investigated using a parametric finite element model. Design of experiments techniques and statistical analysis was used to provide a model for characterizing the critical stress in these components. The influences of the geometrical parameters and their combinations were studied in detail. It was observed that the length to width ratio of the cutout, the length and the radius to thickness ratio of the cylinder were significant parameters for describing the stress concentration around the cutout, respectively. By increasing the length to width ratio as a main effective geometrical factor in the stress concentration, the stress around the cutout was increased significantly. Based on the statistical analysis conducted in this study, a formula was derived which can predict the stress concentration around the cutout of the cylinder with the accuracy more than 84% (R2 = 88.7%, R2pred = 84.6%, R2adj= 86.7%). تفاصيل المقالة

The nanocomposite cylinders are combinations of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and isotropic matrix. Material properties are estimated by a micro mechanical model (Rule of mixture), using some effective parameters. In this simulation, an axisymmetric model is used; uniform and four kinds of linear functionally graded (FG) distributions of CNTs along the radial direction is assumed, in order to study the stress distributions. Effects of the kind of distribution and volume fraction of CNT and also, thermal environment, and geometry dimension of cylinder are investigated on the stress and displacement distributions of the FG nanocomposite cylinders. It is shown that, CNTs distribution and environment temperature are important factors on the stresses distribution of the nanocomposite cylinders. تفاصيل المقالة

        Cold roll forming is a process in which a metal sheet gets a desired section form by passing through a series of rotating rollers. Predicting the amount of the distortion in pre-notched cold formed sections still remains challenging in cold roll forming industry, depending on the shape and position of the holes. This study investigates the influence of variation of the design parameters on the defects of the U-channel sections produced by cold roll forming process with circular pre-notches. To analyze the important parameters in deforming the circular holes during the cold roll forming of U-channel sections, a three-dimensional finite element model has been taken into account. A range of variation for design factors in forming the U-channel sections with pre-notches is set, including radius of circular holes, distance between the holes and the flange edge, hole spacing, sheet thickness, and type of material. Furthermore, using the response surface methodology, a set of tests are designed and modeled employing Finite Element analysis. Afterward, a set of output parameters such as edge buckling, the wave of the holes, the change in hole size, hole spacing, and the distance between the holes and the edge of the flange, are considered. Utilizing Analyses Of Variance (ANOVA), the accuracy of the linear regression models was conducted in this study. The accuracy of the simulated models is examined by comparing the analysis results with the experimental results. Finally, the effect of the important parameters on the defects of the product has been extracted in both the statistical form as well as mathematical functions applying response surface methodology. The results show that as the radius of the hole increases, edge buckling increases. The increase of the hole radius increases the edge wave on the holes. The hole width of the product is bigger and the hole length is smaller than the nominal measuring. تفاصيل المقالة

        Microgrippers can be effectively applied for handling, positioning and assembling of the micro components. In the present study, a new design of a U-shape electrothermal microgripper was fabricated and developed with the voltages correspond between 1 to 10 volts. The microgripper was made of silicone with thickness of 25 microns, and pieces between 460 to 480 microns. The proposed microgripper has a simpler design and more facile fabrication comparing to most reported electrothermal microgripper. The behavior of the microgripper was simulated in COMSOL software to measure the displacement of the arms which hold and heat generations during the voltage changes. The present microgripper has more thermal and voltage tolerance comparing to other electrothermal microgripper. Furthermore, the obtained amount of tip displacement for voltage changes is acceptable. Another simulation method based on a three layer artificial neural network model (ANN) was carried out. Feed forward back propagation algorithm was employed as training algorithm to predict the displacement. The obtained results from both models proved that ANN model had better estimation due to the mean absolute percentage error of 1.024% and determination coefficient of 0.9995. Moreover, they confirm higher capability and accuracy of ANN in prediction of arms displacement compared to FEM. تفاصيل المقالة

        All the producing and assembling processes exert residual stress on the pieces that may lead to structural failure. Therefore, calculating the residual stress in such structures has been common in recent years. In this article, distribution of temperature and residual stress resulting from arc welding in three-pass butt joint in P91 austenitic stainless steel pipes is calculated and estimated using the finite element method and experimental data. Simulating the welding process has been carried out three- dimensionally using Abaqus software. Distribution of the arc thermal flux has been identified based on the Goldak two-elliptical model using DFLUX subprogram in Abaqus software. The numerical method has been employed by doing thermoelastoplastic analysis and the technique of birth and death of the elements to model the welding passes and the melted elements. Then, using central hole drilling method, residual stress gradient of the thickness at distance 3mm from the welding line on the pipe is measured. Finally, the maximum percentage of error, through the results obtained from experimental measurements and finite element method, was reported 27% which is scientifically reasonable. The results show that the residual environmental stress in the internal surface of the pipe from the welding central line to 8.7mm varies with the gradient of 610MPa from 296MPa to -314MPa. Such a drastic stress distribution leads to genesising some cracks on the welded pipes. تفاصيل المقالة

        Appropriate design of stem shape is an important factor in total hip replacement. It affects the attachment of the implant to the bone and the stability of the implant. Using topology optimization, this study has been an attempt to propose an optimized model of the stem profile of the hip implants. In this regard, a three-dimensional finite element model of the implant has been combined with a stiffness-based topology optimization algorithm to reduce the relative motion between the implant and the bone. The objective function in the optimization problem is the compliance of the structure which should be minimized. Also, a constraint on usable volume is applied to the structure. Then smoothing process has been done on the optimal model to prevent its geometric complexities. Results show that the final model has a smaller weight, less displacement, and more uniform stress distribution. In addition, using conventional production methods, this model can be easily produced. تفاصيل المقالة

        Prediction of creep life for a ferritic steel plate is significant in the context of its application as an element of steam generating systems. In this paper, the issue of elevated temperature creep in 2.25Cr–1Mo steel was investigated in detail, including the mechanism and the compatibility of hyperbolic sine modeling methodology for the description of steady state creep behavior of this alloy. Creep rupture tests were conducted on the thin foil samples at an elevated temperature ranging from 973 to 1073 K at various stresses between 90 to 210 MPa. A hyperbolic sine model is then used to fit the experimental creep data and the corresponding best fit parameters are provided. Using these parameters, a finite element analysis employing ABAQUS was carried and the reliability of the hyperbolic sine model was investigated in relation to the creep curve and creep life in the steady state creep area. The main outcome of the current study is creep characterisation of 2.25Cr–1Mo steel foils at extreme elevated temperature and to propose a finite element model for simulating this condition which is not reported so far. The results of experimental, constitutive analysis and finite element simulation were compared to each other and it was shown that they are in a good agreement. تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the most important studies in tube hydroforming process is optimization of loading paths. The primary purpose of this research is to maximize formability by detecting the optimal forming parameters. The most significant settings in the prosperity of tube hydroforming process, are internal pressure and end axial feed (i.e., load path). In this paper, a finite element analysis was performed for a double-layered tube hydroforming process using the ABAQUS/Explicit software. Then, the finite element model has been verified with published experimental data. Using design of experiments (DOE) working with the Taguchi method, 32 loading paths are designed for optimization. All 32 loading paths are modelled using the finite element method in ABAQUS/Explicit and the magnitudes of bulge height and the total thickness of tubes at the branch tip are obtained in each loading path. The regression analysis is carried out to estimate the tubes formability and obtain objective functions that are bulge height and the total thickness of tubes at the protrusion peak as functions of loading parameters (internal pressure and axial feed). For solving the multi-objective optimization problem, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) is utilized and the optimum results were obtained from the Pareto optimal front. Finally, the optimized loading path was applied to the finite element model and better formability (3.4% increase in the bulge height) has been achieved in the results. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, an attempt has been made to provide a numerical method for investigating the mechanical properties of multilayer scaffolding. These scaffolds can be used as implants in bone fractures. For this purpose two numerical simulation methods are introduced to predict the elastic properties of multilayer cell scaffolds. These simulations are based on two models: a 3D model with a volumetric element, and a 1D model with a linear element. To compare the results of these models, three types of two- and three-layer titanium alloy scaffolds have been simulated by the two methods. Also, Young's modulus of the scaffolds has been compared with the experimental conclusions of earlier studies. The results confirm that simulations with 1D models are more cost-effective compared to 3D ones. Additionally, because of the more reliable agreement of Young's modulus results of numerical modeling with the linear element (1.8 to 5 times) compared to the volumetric element (11 to 23 times) compared to the experimental findings, the numerical method with the linear elements can be a reliable tool for studying multilayer scaffoldings. تفاصيل المقالة

        Indentation forming is an internal tube forming process in which a mandrel with a diameter slightly larger than that of the tube is pressed inside the tube and in so doing, creates the internal profile. Forming forces have a significant effect on the spring back, residual stress, quality of the inner surface, quality of tube dimensions, and tool wear. In this study, the forming process of CK45 steel tube by carbide tungsten tool in the presence of ultrasonic vibration has been simulated and the effect of ultrasonic on the forming mechanism has been investigated by introducing two regimes according to the forming conditions. The effects of tool feed-speed and amplitude of vibration on forming force reduction have been investigated. According to the simulation results, the main reason for the force reduction in the presence of longitudinal tube ultrasonic vibration is the intermittent phenomenon which is the continuous or impulsive regime. The critical amplitude which determines the borderline of continuous and impulsive regimes is obtained 38µm by the simulation of the process. The maximum force reduction obtained in continuous regime is 64.2% at the critical amplitude. The simulation results are consistent well with the previous experimental data. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, the multi-pass friction stir processing on AZ91 alloy has been simulated with the three-dimensional numerical modeling based on the ABAQUS/ Explicit. This simulation involves the Johnson-Cook models for defining the material behavior during this intense plastic deformation and investing the fracture criterion. Friction stir processing is a complex process that includes several issues such as high strain rate deformation, microstructure evolution, the asymmetric flow of material, and heat. Therefore, the modeling of this process is challenging. This model simulates the tool plunging and stirring phases in the two-pass process. In this paper, to prevent too much damage in the elements during processing, the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian technique for automatically remeshing of distorted elements has been used. This work shows that the numerical modeling can be an efficient method to study the effect of process parameters on the thermal evolution and the stress distribution. The thermal model was calibrated using the experimental results from the previous works. This model can predict the transient temperature distribution and residual stress field during FSP on AZ91. The results show that the maximum temperature in the advancing side is more than that in the retreating side. In addition, numerical results show that at the end-position of the process, the tool during the lift-up leaves the keyhole region in a compressive stress state. تفاصيل المقالة

        In Osteoporosis, bone mechanical strength decreases and as a result, the risk of bone fracture increases. Osteoporosis is also referred as a "silent illness" since it usually develops asymptomatic until it breaks a long bone, like the femur. In recent years, porous scaffolds have been utilized to repair damaged bone tissue. For bone tissue engineering, synthetic scaffolds should have acceptable mechanical properties, in addition to the required biological properties. In this regard, the finite element simulation is used to predict the mechanical properties of porous bone scaffolds as one of the most common methods for reducing the experimental tests, because the acquisition of mechanical properties of such scaffolds is very time-consuming and expensive. Due to the widespread use of hydroxyapatite (HA) in the manufacture of bone scaffold composites, the mechanical properties of HA-wollastonite scaffold composites are obtained by laboratory tests and finite element methods. Comparison of the simulation of finite element analysis (FEA) and the experimental results indicate the success of the FEA simulation. In conclusion, new finding satisfied expectations as being suitable for mechanical and biomaterial aspect of a porous scaffold which is proven by laboratory tests and FEA simulations. Due to that fact, the result of this study can be employed to obtain scaffolds well-suited for bone implementations. تفاصيل المقالة

        In recent decades, the use of aluminium alloys is developed in the automotive industry with regard to the need for lightweight and anti-corrosion components, one of which is AA7075 Al alloy. In this study, the multi-step deep drawing process of AA7075 aluminium sheets under various blank holder forces is investigated through a numerical simulation and is then validated with experimental results. Simulations were conducted by ABAQUS finite element software, and the influences of the blank holder force on the wrinkling height, rupture occurrence and thickness distribution of the sheet were studied. The optimum amount of blank holder force at each drawing step is determined so that the height of wrinkling, and the thinning percentage do not exceed the permissible value. Based on the results, the blank holder force magnitude should be considered descending during the four successive steps to achieve more uniform thickness distribution, and also the wrinkling height could be reduced by increasing the blank holder force in the analysed force range. The optimum amount of blank holder force in the four drawing steps was 28000, 2500, 1500 and 600 N, respectively. In general, the minimum thickness was created in the corner of the punch. The results also showed that an excessive increase in the blank holder force in order to eliminate the wrinkling caused the thinning percentage to increase. Finally, a good accordance between the experimental and numerical results was observed. تفاصيل المقالة

        Purpose of this study is to obtain failure modes and failure loads of two Parallel pin loaded holes in unidirectional glass fibre/epoxy by adding nanoclay in the absence of nanoclay composite laminates using finite element analysis; the results are validated through experiment. The geometrical parameters studies in this survey include the distance between the diameter of the hole (e/d) and the free edge of specimen, the distance between two holes-to-hole diameter (M/d). The samples were exposed to constant speed tensile loading. The results showed that by adding nanoclay, failure load increases and failure modes varies from shear out to bearing failure. Furthermore, increasing distance from the free edge of the pin centre’s increases load bearing capacity of two type of composite materials and changes the failure mode from shear to the bear, it increases and decreases the distance from canter’s of pin in layers with and without nanoclay particles, respectively and changes failure mode from shear to bear mode. In order to find morphology of specimens and dispersion quality, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used. For predicting failure load and differentiating failure modes, Tsai-hill failure criteria associated with material property degradation is used. Experimental and FEM results indicate importance of considering the impact of e/d and M/d ratios in the design of two Parallel pin joints. ANSYS was used to carry out numerical simulation and the results denote a good agreement between numerical and experimental results. In this study, by designing an experimental and numerical procedure to estimate the effect of nanoclay, on failure mode and failure load of typical composite material, glass-epoxy, we could illustrate that adding nanoclay brought with it improvement of shear and tensional strength of glass-epoxy about 10 %. تفاصيل المقالة

        The paper studied the analysis of vibrations of rectangular carbon nanotube-reinforced composite plates. To this end, a three-layer nanocomposite plate - two layers with the targeted distribution of carbon nanotubes as FG-X at the top and bottom and a layer without an amplifier in the middle of the plate - were analyzed. The governing equations for this problem are based on First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT). The distribution of nanotubes on these plates is as targeted FG-X. The effect of various types of SWCNTs distributions in the direction of thickness on the vibrational behavior of nanocomposite plates was examined. The effective properties of nanocomposite materials Functionally Graded Carbon Nanotube-Reinforced Composite (FG-CNTRC) were estimated using the rule of mixtures. Detailed parametric studies were performed to determine the effects of the volume fraction of carbon nanotubes and the thickness-to-length ratio of the plate on the natural frequency responses and the shape of the plate mode. The equations obtained in this problem were coded in MATLAB software, the nanocomposite plate was modelled in ABAQUS software, and the comparison of the results obtained from the numerical solution with ABAQUS software showed relatively right consistency with the results obtained from the analytical solution. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, the effect of pre-stress condition on the resonance frequency of the transducer is studied by using numerical and analytical methods. To compare the obtained results, two sandwich-type transducers with nominal frequency of 25 kHz and 30 kHz are considered. Experimental determination of pre-stress value in transducer is described and measured. Then resonance frequency of transducers in the presence of pre-stress is determined by impedance analyser. Numerical analysis is conducted by modelling three-dimensional transducer in details at ABAQUS software. The resonance frequency is determined with and without pre-stress. The FE results show that by applying pre-stress on the transducers, the resonance frequency of transducers decreased. Furthermore, the FE results are very close to experimental results. Furthermore, a systematic analytical solution is presented based on one-dimensional wave propagation. The resultant displacement for each sub-section of the transducer is calculated and then all of them are assembled and solved by considering the continuity conditions of displacement and force components. It is found that pre-load condition that is produced by central bolt reduces resonance frequency of the transducer. The obtained analytical results provide fast and reliable model for predicting resonance frequency of transducer. تفاصيل المقالة

        Welding is known as one of the most popular attaching methods for different hollow section components. However, local concentrated heating, distortion, and residual stresses at welded joints are unavoidable. In this article, the welding simulation for rectangular hollow (RHS) sections for the front axle carrier of the new BMW series-7 is discussed and weld distortion and residual stresses in its aluminum T-joint for one proposed sequence are investigated. Comparisons of the results of this paper for this recommended sequence with experimental results in some references show good agreement and indicate that characteristics of the welding distortions are fully forecasted. In the following of this paper, the Finite Element Method (FEM) is used to offer a better sequence with smaller weld distortion and residual stresses. Weld distortion and residual stresses are highly influenced by welding strategy. In the proposed strategy, the needed time to perform the welding process decreased, and the total weld distortion and residual stresses decreased by 24% and 4%, respectively. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nowadays grid structures are considered as one of the most useful composites because of their various applications. Since grid structures are vulnerable to impact loads, they should be investigated under such loadings. The present paper studies the low-velocity impact loading of sandwich panels with grid-stiffened cores using both experimental and numerical simulations. In addition to the impact behaviour and the resultant damage of the sandwich panels, the behaviour of these structures under three-point bending was studied before and after the impact loading. The results were provided for impact and bending loadings separately. Then the effect of impact loadings on bending strength was investigated and it was found that the impact loading decreases the bending strength. A consistency between numerical and experimental results was also observed, which confirms the applicability of the Finite Element Method (FEM) in simulating the behaviour of such structures under impact and bending loads, while saving lots of time, efforts and costs. تفاصيل المقالة

        The proper connection between mortar and steel is one of the crucial issues in civil engineering. This paper has investigated the effect of polypropylene fibbers on the bond between cement mortar and steel, using “Twist-off” and “pull-off” tests. Moreover, in order to assess the in-situ mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced mortars, the correlation of records obtained from semi-destructive methods of “Twist-off” and “pull-off” with those of laboratory tests was determined, and calibration curves were provided, using the regression analyses. The mentioned tests were modelled with the ABAQUS software to evaluate the distribution of stresses and cracks developed during the semi-destructive tests. The results show that the addition of polypropylene fibbers reduces the shrinkage of mortars by about 13% and this has a direct effect on the bond between the mortar and steel. So that the shear and tensile bond of fibre-reinforced mortars at 90 days is 75% and 94% higher than conventional mortars, respectively. The reason for this is the effect of fibbers on the process of hydration of mortars and also to prevent excessive opening of cracks, which is shown by SEM. According to the results, instead of using an expensive and imported pull-off device, a cheap and internal twist-off device can be used to measure adhesion. Also, to evaluate the compressive strength of mortars, twist-off and pull-off tests can be used by placing the readings obtained in the equations y = 0.156x + 0.329 and y = 0.055x-0.001 instead of x, respectively, to evaluate the compressive strength of mortars. تفاصيل المقالة

        The braking system in cars is directly deals with the issue of safety, and as a result, it is essential to pay attention to this matter. One of the materials used to make disc and brake pads in disc brakes is a ceramic material. This research aims to simulate and analyze the dynamic-thermal ceramic brake disc during the braking operation using the finite element method. Currently, the conventional brake disc is used in the Peugeot 206 car (domestic production), which has low efficiency in terms of life, wear, etc. Therefore, in this research, considering the significant production of Peugeot 206 car in the country, the disc and brake pads of this car have been selected, which were first modeled by Catia software, and after transferring the model to Abacus software and defining the types of ceramics and Cast iron was analyzed by finite element method. Compared the results of the Peugeot 206 ceramic brake disc and pad analysis were with the results of the standard (cast iron) discs in this car. The results showed that the maximum von Mises stress in the ceramic disc was 260.7 MPa, while the maximum von Mises stress in the cast iron disc was 293.3 MPa. The amount of heat produced in the ceramic disc during the braking action in 4 seconds was almost 84% less than the cast iron disc in the same period. Also, the results showed that the ceramic disc has a higher safety factor (1.98) than the cast iron disc (1.45). تفاصيل المقالة

        The design and manufacturing cubic porous scaffolds are a considerable notion in tissue engineering (TE). From Additive manufacturing (AM) perspective, it has attained high appeal in the string of TE during the past decade. In the view of TE, the feasibility of manufacturing intricate porous scaffolds with high accuracy contrast to prominent producing methods has caused AM the outstanding option for manufacturing scaffold. From design perspective, porous scaffold structures play a crucial task in TE as scaffold design with an adequate geometries provide a route to required strength and porosity. The target of this paper is achieve of best geometry to become an optimum mechanical strength and porosity of TE scaffolds. Hence, the cubic geometry has been chosen for scaffold and Cube, Cylinder and Hexagonal prism geometries have been selected for pore of structures. In addition, for noticing the porosity effects, pore size has been chosen in three size, and a whole of nine scaffolds have been designed. Designed scaffolds were generated using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D Printer and dimensional specifications of scaffolds were evaluated by comparing the designed scaffolds with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The samples were subjected to mechanical compression test and the results were verified with the Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The results showed that firstly, as the porosity increases, the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity obviously decreased in all geometry pore scaffolds. Secondly, as the geometry changes in similar porosity, cubic pore scaffold achieved higher compressive strength and modulus of elasticity than cylinder and hexagonal prime. Experimental and FEM validated results proposed a privileged feasible pore geometry of cubic scaffold to be used in design and manufacturing of TE scaffolds. تفاصيل المقالة

        The present study investigates the production process by closed die forging method of one of the sensitive and safe parts of KIA car brake, which is affected by various mechanical and thermal stresses in its operating conditions; therefore, in the present research, the application of this forming method in the Iranian automotive industry has been discussed. In this study, an attempt was made using finite element analysis in ABAQUS software to determine the maximum force required for forging this part. In addition, the influence of various parameters such as the temperature of the part during the forming process, the coefficient of friction between the part and the die, as well as the strain rate have been investigated. The results indicated that the friction coefficient has a significant effect on the maximum required force, and the maximum values of the load increase with increasing the friction coefficient; but the remarkable result is that the effect of this coefficient is negligible from a value onwards. This point is consistent with the observations in practice. Besides, a strong dependence of the results on the loading speed was observed, and the required force has increased with increasing loading speed for reasons such as the strain hardening phenomenon. Also, the force required for forging has decreased with increasing the temperature, which is due to reduced material strength. This reduction from 900°C to 1000°C is less than 2%, while it is approximately 40% from 1000°C to 1100°C, which is consistent with the experimental reports. تفاصيل المقالة

These structures have garnered significant attention for their distinctive properties and have found widespread application across industries such as aerospace, medical, pharmaceutical, automotive, defense and safety. This study seeks to explore the impact of geometric parameters on the natural frequency and damping coefficient of cellular lattice structures. Samples featuring BCC and OCTET architectures with varying porosities were initially produced using fused deposition modeling (FDM). Subsequently, both experimental and numerical analyses were conducted to assess the first natural frequency and damping coefficient of these materials. Comparison of the numerically obtained results with experimental data revealed a strong agreement. The findings indicate that, for both BCC and OCTET lattices, an increase in porosity is associated with a decrease in both natural frequency and damping coefficient. تفاصيل المقالة

The mechanical properties of this unit cell were defined as a new matrix and the nanoparticles were randomly dispersed in the new matrix using a Python code. The elastic properties of the modeled nanocomposite were obtained using Abaqus software via applying periodic boundary conditions based on the mean volumetric stress. In the next step, the sandwich structure was subjected to impact loads at various speeds and contact force-time diagrams were plotted using Abaqus software. The modeled results were compared with the known experimental data which showed a high accuracy in predicting the mechanical properties and impact behavior of the nanocomposite sandwich structures. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this article, the simulation of the physical phenomenon of coaxial corona discharge in air, in DC mode using the finite element method is discussed. Basically, to optimize the production process of ionized gas and any other physical phenomenon, we model and simulate the phenomenon. To simulate this phenomenon, from two cylindrical electrodes, one inside (cathode) and the other outside (anode), the radius of the inner electrode is 100 microns and the distance between the electrodes is 10 cm. A constant voltage of 50 kV is applied to the inner electrode. The outer electrode is considered the ground. Our emphasis is on the formation of charged particles and their behavior in the resulting electric field. In order to avoid the complexity of the problem and save the simulation time, we model in a one-dimensional way and in the results extract the above phenomenon in a two-dimensional way. The gas temperature is 640 K and the air density is considered constant. تفاصيل المقالة

        Composite structures are increasingly being used in various engineering structures such as automotive, aerospace, and civil structures due to their superior properties, namely, high strength-to-weight ratio, impact resistance, and durability. For the purpose of accessibility to other components and possibility of installation, aerospace structures encounters geometrical discontinuities which can lead to a complex structural analysis due to non-isotropic behavior. This paper aims to study the frequency response behavior of a composite lattice conical structure considering the effect of geometric discontinuity stiffened by a circular ring. The lattice structures are made of glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP) fabricated using filament winding method and cured in an autoclave. Numerical analysis and experimental modal testing was performed to obtain frequency response of the structures considering geometrical discontinuities. The results showed that the natural frequency values of structures with cutout in free-free boundary conditions are lower than those without cutout. Furthermore, comparing the mode shapes of structures indicated that these shapes were similar to each other and only some slight differences in discontinuity area were observed in some modes. Finally, the highest difference of numerical analysis results in structures with or without cutout was 2.61% while the highest difference of experimental analysis results in the structures was 3.73%. The greatest difference in the numerical and experimental analysis results is pertinent to the second mode in the structure without cutout is 15.64% and in the structure with cutout is 12.48%. تفاصيل المقالة

        Although a few models have been proposed for 3D simulation of different welding processes, 2D models are still more effective in design goals, thus more popular due to the short-time analysis. In this research, replacing "time" by the "third dimension of place", the gas tungsten arc welding process was simulated by the finite element method in two dimensions and in a short time with acceptable accuracy in two steps (non-coupled thermal and mechanical analysis). A new method was proposed for applying initial conditions using temperature values calculated in the preceding step of the solution; this trick reduces nonlinear effects of birth of elements and considerably reduces analysis time. A new parameter was defined for determining thermal boundary conditions to determine the contribution of the imposed surface and volumetric thermal loads. The effect of weld joint geometry on residual stresses and distortion was studied based on a validated simulation program. Results suggest that changing the joint geometry from V-into X-groove, the maximum values of residual stress and distortion are reduced by 20% and 15%, respectively. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present study, potential of finite element based molecular structural mechanics (MSM) for evaluating stress concentration factor of single-layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) with elliptical vacancies is successfully addressed. The MSM approach mimics the interatomic forces of the nanostructure by defining an equivalent frame structure containing beam elements. To obtain the mechanical and cross sectional properties of the equivalent beam, the potential energies of chemical bonds between carbon atoms in the hexagonal lattice of SLGSs are equaled to the strain energies of the beams. This novel proposed approach accurately predicts the stress concentration in graphene sheets with significantly less computational effort in comparison to computational physics methods. Both armchair and zigzag configurations are considered. Furthermore, a comparison between the results obtained by presented MSM approach and theory of elasticity for thin infinite panels having elliptical holes is presented. Influence of chirality, and geometry of elliptical vacancies are investigated in details. Results reveal that MSM approach can successfully predicts stress concentration factor phenomena in nano structures, especially SLGSs. It is seen that chirality has a significant effect on the stress concentration factor so that armchair SLGSs show a larger value of stress concentration. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, the mechanical and thermal behavior of the nano-reinforced polymer composite reinforced by Montmorillonite (MMT) nanoparticles is investigated. Due to low cost of computations, the 3D representative volume elements (RVE) method is utilized using ABAQUS finite element commercial software. Low density poly ethylene (LDPE) and MMT are used as matrix and nanoparticle material, respectively. By using various geometric shapes and weight fractions of nanoparticle, the mechanical and thermal properties such as Young’s modulus, shear modulus, heat expansion coefficient and heat transfer coefficient are studied. Due to addressing the properties of interfacial zone between the matrix and nanoparticle, finite element modeling is conducted in two ways, namely, perfect bonding and cohesive zone. The results are validated by comparing with experimental results reported in literature and a reasonable agreement was observed. The prediction function for Young’s modulus is presented by employing Genetic Algorithm (GA) method. Also, Kerner and Paul approaches as theoretical models are used to calculate the Young’s modulus. It was finally concluded that the magnitude of the Young’s and shear modules increase by adding MMT nanoparticles. Furthermore, increment of MMT nanoparticles to polymer matrix nanocomposite decrease the heat expansion and heat transfer coefficients. تفاصيل المقالة

        Tooth root crack is considered as one of the crucial causes of failure in the gearing system and it occurs at the tooth root due to an excessive bending stress developed in the root region. The modern power transmission gear drives demand high bending load capacity, increased contact load capacity, low weight, reduced noise and longer life. These subsequent conditions are satisfied by the aid of precisely designed asymmetric tooth profile which turns out to be a suitable alternate for symmetric spur gears in applications like aerospace, automotive, gear pump and wind turbine industries. In all step up and step down gear drives (gear ratio > 1), the pinion (smaller in size) is treated as a vulnerable one than gear (larger in size) which is primarily due to the development of maximum root stress in the pinion tooth. This paper presents an idea to improve the bending load capacity of asymmetric spur gear drive system by achieving the same stresses between the asymmetric pinion and gear fillet regions which can be accomplished by providing an appropriate addendum modification. For this modified addendum the pinion and gear teeth proportion equations have been derived. In addition, the addendum modification factors required for a balanced maximum fillet stress condition has been determined through FEM for different parameters like drive side pressure angle, number of teeth and gear ratio. The bending load capacity of the simulated addendum modified asymmetric spur gear drives were observed to be prevalent (very nearly 7%) to that of uncorrected asymmetric gear drives. تفاصيل المقالة

        The single point incremental forming (SPIF) is one of the dieless forming processes which is widely used in the sheet metal forming. The correct selection of the SPIF parameters influences the formability and quality of the product. In the present study, the Gurson-Tvergaard Needleman (GTN) damage model was used for the fracture prediction in the numerical simulation of the SPIF process of aluminum alloy 1050. The GTN parameters of AA 1050 sheet were firstly identified by the numerical simulation of tensile test and comparison of the experimental and numerical stress-strain curves. The identified parameters of the GTN damage model were used for fracture prediction in the SPIF process. The numerical results of the fracture position, thickness variation across the sample and forming height were compared with the experimental results. The numerical results had good agreement with the experimental ones. The effect of SPIF main parameters was investigated on the formability of samples by the verified numerical model. These parameters were tool rotation speed, tool feed rate, tool diameter, wall angle of the sample, vertical pitch, and friction between the tool and the blank. تفاصيل المقالة

        According to the great importance of safety in aerospace industries, identification of dynamic parameters of related equipment by experimental tests in operating conditions has been in focus. Due to the existence of noise sources in these conditions the probability of fault occurrence may increases. This study investigates the effects of noise in the process of modal parameters identification by Output only Modal Analysis (OMA) method using Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) algorithm. The study case is the horizontal tailplane of the aircraft; therefore, at first, the modal parameters of the tailplane are obtained numerically. Then a cantilever beam is used to perform experimental tests with regard to the high aspect ratio of the modeled tailplane. The modal parameters of the beam are obtained nonparametrically by Experimental Modal Analysis (EMA) and OMA. In order to investigate the effects of noise in a controlled manner, the artificial excitation namely the shaker with the random force is used. Then, the effects of noisy measurements on the specifications of the system in EMA and OMA methods are investigated. The results indicate that: 1. The OMA method has more resistance against the noise for extracting natural frequencies. 2. The results of the Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) values by EMA method, in the condition of noise existence in output data, are worse than the noise existence in input data. 3. The average of MAC values in general condition of EMA method by noisy input & output data is worse than the OMA method. تفاصيل المقالة

        Finite element formulations based generally on classical beam theories such as Euler-Bernoulli or Timoshenko. Sometimes, these two formulations could be problematic expressed in terms of restrictions of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, in case of thicker beams due to non-consideration of transverse shear; phenomenon that is known as shear locking characterized the Timoshenko beam theory, in case of thin beams; problem of slow of convergence in regards to the element of Timoshenko beam. In responding to this problematic, a new beam finite element model is developed to study the static bending of functionally graded beams. The originality of this model lies in the use of a deformation approach with the consideration of a central node positioned in the middle of the beam. The degrees of freedom of this node are subsequently eliminated by the method of static condensation. In addition, this model is suitable for all linear structures regardless of L/h ratio. Functionally graded material beams have a smooth variation of material properties due to continuous change in micro structural details. The mechanical properties of the beam are assumed to vary continuously in the thickness direction by a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. A simply supported beam subjected to uniform load for different length-to-thickness ratio has been chosen in the analysis. Finite element solutions obtained with the new finite element model are presented, and the obtained results are evaluated with the existing solutions to verify the validity of the present model. تفاصيل المقالة

        The effect of cyclic loading on fatigue crack growth in plastically compressible solids is investigated at negative stress ratio under plane strain and small scale yielding conditions. The material is characterized by a finite strain elastic viscoplastic constitutive model with hardening and hardening-softening-hardening hardness functions. Displacements corresponding to the isotropic linear elastic mode I crack field are prescribed on a remote boundary. The plastic crack growth, crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) and near crack tip stress fields are presented using finite element method. Material hardening/ softening has a major relevance on crack growth, CTOD and the evolution of stress distribution. It is revealed here that the negative stress ratio can significantly influence the loading conditions at the crack tip and thereby increase the crack growth for tension–compression loading for hardening material whereas the fatigue crack growth of plastically compressible hardening-softening-hardening material is only slightly affected by the negative stress ratio albeit it is accepted in literature that compressive loads contribute to fatigue crack growth significantly. In the present studies, the CTOD variation with applied load and the near stress distribution are also very unusual in nature. تفاصيل المقالة

        A fuel cell is an electro-chemical tool capable of converting chemical energy into electricity. High operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cell, between 700oC to 1000oC, causes thermal stress. Thermal stress causes gas escape, structure variability and cease operation of the SOFC before its lifetime.The purpose of the current paper is to present a method that predicts the thermal stress distribution in an anisotropic porous anode of planar SOFC. The coupled governing non-linear differential equations, heat transfer, fluid flow, mass transfer, mass continuity, and momentum are solved numerically. A code based oncomputational fluid dynamics (CFD), computational structural mechanics and finite element method (FEM) is developed and utilized. The code uses the generated data inside the porous anode in order to detect the temperature and the stress distribution using the Darcy’s law and the Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical results used to govern the areas of high values of stresses were higher than the yield strength of materials. The results show that a highest thermal stress occurs at lower corners of the anode. The concentrated temperature occurs at the middle of the electrolyte-anode whereas the maximum pressure occurs at the middle of the upper and lower section of the anode. تفاصيل المقالة

        This article presents an analysis of free vibration of elastically supported Timoshenko beams by using the spectral element method. The governing partial differential equation is elaborated to formulate the spectral stiffness matrix. Effectively, the non classical end boundary conditions of the beam are the primordial task to calibrate the phenomenon of the Timoshenko beam-soil foundation interaction. Non-dimensional natural frequencies and shape modes are obtained by solving the partial differential equations, numerically. Upon solving the eigenvalue problem, non-dimensional frequencies are computed for the first three modes of vibration. Obtained results of this study are intended to describe multiple objects, such as: (1) the establishment of the modal analysis with and without elastic springs, (2) the quantification of the influence of the beam soil foundation interaction, (3) the influence of soil foundation stiffness’ on free vibration characteristics of Timoshenko beam. For this propose, the first three eigenvalues of Timoshenko beam are calculated and plotted for various stiffness of translational and rotational springs. تفاصيل المقالة

        The three analytical, finite element and experimental methods are applied to study the nonlinear buckling of cracked columns. The original aim of this research is to investigate the validity of the common analytical method in an analogy with the experimental method and the finite element method of MATLAB programming-based. The literature review shows that papers applied this analytical method without considering its drawbacks to determine the post-buckling results. Results in the linear part of the analytical method are in close accordance with the two others, while a clear difference in the nonlinear part of the analytical method is observed with the actual results obtained from the experimental tests and numerical results of the finite element method. An in-depth discussion is represented to find out the main reasons of this difference. The conversion matrix technique in the finite element method and dividing the column into two segments in the analytical method are used to include the crack parameters in relations according to the continuity conditions in the crack tip. An investigation is performed to study the effect of the crack depth and position on the critical buckling load and the post-buckling path. تفاصيل المقالة

        The neck fractures and the femurs intertrochanteric are common complications that are recovered by a multicomponent implant called dynamic hip screw (DHS). In the present study, a standard four-hole DHS with Ti6Al4V (Ti6) and SS316l (SS) alloys for static mode (slow walking) and fatigue mode like normal walking (NW), descending stairs (DS), and falling (FA) by finite elements analysis (FEA) have been evaluated (ANSYS software). The results have been confirmed by similar studies in static mode and maximum Von Mises stress and strain are obtained for Ti6 about 145MPa and 0.191%, and SS about 196 MPa and 0.121%. Most critical stress points occur in cortical screws, plate holes, compression screws, and lag screws, respectively. DHS components with Ti6 alloy have infinite life in NW and DS, also in FA, they have a finite life (107-108 cycle) with alternating Von Mises stress () ~ 425 MPa, while for SS they have finite life in all activities, which NW ~107 cycle, DS~106 cycle,and even in FA cortical screw life of failure reaches to 98 cycles and . The critical regions are the same as the failure regions common in biomechanical and clinical studies. These regions are mainly concentration stress points that lead to DHS failure as the crack grows. تفاصيل المقالة

        Engine piston is one of the most complex components among all automotive. The engine can be called the heart of a car and the piston may be considered the most important part of an engine. In fact, piston has to endure thermo-mechanical cyclic loadings in a wide range of operating conditions. This paper presents high cycle fatigue (HCF) life prediction for an aluminum alloy piston using stress gradient approach described in the Forschungskuratorium Maschinenbau (FKM) method. For this purpose, first Solidworks software was used to model the piston. Then Ansys Workbench software was used to determine temperature and stress distribution of the piston. Finally, in order to study the fatigue life of the piston based on HCF approach, the results were fed into the nCode Design Life software. The numerical results showed that the temperature maximum occurred at the piston crown center. The results of finite element analysis (FEA) indicated that the stress and number of cycles to failure have the most critical values at the upper portion of piston pin and piston compression grooves. To evaluate properly of results, stress analysis and HCF results is compared with real samples of damaged piston and it has been shown that critical identified areas, match well with areas of failure in the real samples. The lifetime of this part can be determined through FEA instead of experimental tests. تفاصيل المقالة

In this system the engine ordered speed and the number of active cylinders are assumed as inputs and the dynamic parameters of the engine such as torque and speed are considered as outputs. In this research, the effects of sea wave and wind on the system dynamic behavior have been investigated. In addition, the ship powertrain system is investigated in which the intermediate shaft and propeller shaft are analyzed using lumped parameter method, finite element method, distributed-lumped method and the results of these modeling techniques are compared to the modeling results in which the connecting shafts were considered as rigid body. Comparison of the results shows that there are significant differences between the results of rigid body method and other three types of system modeling. On the other hand, the time required to run the distributed-lumped model is much shorter compared to other methods that are considered in the study for the dynamic behavior of the ship's powertrain systems. On the other hand, the fatigue analysis of the ship power transmission shafts shows that the fatigue life assessment of these shafts is of great importance and should be considered in the design phase. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper proposes conforming and nonconforming 20-node hexahedral finite elements. The elements’ formulation stems from the so-called Space Fiber Rotation (SFR) concept, allowing a spatial rotation of three-dimensional virtual fiber within the elements. Adding rotational degrees of freedom results in six degrees of freedom per node (three rotations and three translations) which enhances the approximation of the classical displacement field. The incompatible modes approach has been adopted in the nonconforming element formulation in order to avoid numerical deficiencies associated with the Poisson’s ratio locking phenomenon. The accuracy of the proposed elements is examined through a series of three-dimensions linear elastic benchmarks including beam, plates, and shell structures. The proposed elements were shown to give better results than the standard 20-node hexahedron especially when mesh distortion is applied. This confirms that the two proposed elements are less sensitive to mesh distortion. The elements also show good performance when compared with analytical and numerical solutions from the literature. تفاصيل المقالة

        Three-dimensional enriched finite elements are used to compute mixed-mode stress intensity factors (SIFs) for three-dimensional cracks in elastic functionally graded materials (FGMs) that are subject to general mixed-mode loading. The method, which advantageously does not require special mesh configuration/modifications and post-processing of finite element results, is an enhancement of previous developments applied so far on isotropic homogeneous and isotropic interface cracks. The spatial variation of FGM material properties is taken into account at the level of element integration points. To validate the developed method, two- and three-dimensional mixed-mode fracture problems are selected from the literature for comparison. Two-dimensional cases include: inclined central crack in a large FGM medium under uniform tensile strain loading and an edge crack in a finite-size plate under shear traction load. The three-dimensional example models a deflected surface crack in a finite-size FGM plate under uniform tensile stress loading. Comparisons between current results and those from analytical and other numerical methods yield good agreement. Thus, it is concluded that the developed three-dimensional enriched finite elements are capable of accurately computing mixed-mode fracture parameters for cracks in FGMs. تفاصيل المقالة

        A finite element model based on the layerwise theory is developed for the analysis of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminated beams. The numerical model is developed using the layerwise theory of Reddy, and the von Kármán type nonlinear strain field is adopted to accommodate the moderately large rotations of the beam. The finite element beam model is verified by comparing the present numerical solutions with the elasticity solutions available in the literature; an excellent agreement is found. The layerwise beam model is then used to investigate the influence of transverse cracks on material properties and the response in cross-ply laminates using a multiscale approach. The multiscale analysis consists of numerical simulations at two different length scales. In the first scale, a mesoscale, a systematic procedure to quantify the stiffness reduction in the cracked ply is proposed exploiting the laminate theory. In the second scale, a macroscale, continuum damage mechanics approach is used to compute homogenized material properties for a unit cell, and the effective material properties of the cracked ply are extracted by the laminate theory. In the macroscale analysis, a beam structure under a bending load is simulated using the homogenized material properties in the layerwise finite element beam model. The stress redistribution in the beam according to the multiplication of transverse cracks is taken into account and a prediction of sequential matrix cracking is presented. تفاصيل المقالة

        Vibration of laminated composite and sandwich plate under thermal loading is studied in this paper. A refined higher order theory has been used for the purpose. In order to avoid stress oscillations observed in the implementation of a displacement based finite element, the stress field derived from temperature (initial strains) have been made consistent with total strain field. So far no study has been reported in literature on the thermal vibration problem based on the refined higher order theory using a FE model. Numerical results are presented for thermal vibration problems to study the influence of boundary conditions, ply orientation and plate geometry on the natural frequencies of these structures. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents thermal buckling analysis of rectangular functionally graded plates (FG plates) with an eccentrically located elliptic cutout. The plate governing equations derived by the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and finite element formulation is developed to analyze the plate behavior subjected to a uniform temperature rise across plate thickness. It is assumed that the non-homogenous material properties vary through the plate thickness according to a power function. The developed finite element (FE) code with an extended mesh pattern is written in MATLAB software. The effects of aspect ratio of the plate, ellipse radii ratio, position and orientation of the cutout, boundary conditions (BCs) and volume fraction exponent are investigated in details. The results of present code are compared with those available in the literature and some useful design-orientated conclusions are achieved. تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the yet unresolved engineering problems is forecasting the creep lives of weldment in a pragmatic way with sufficient accuracy. There are number of obstacles to circumvent including: complex material behavior, lack of accurate knowledge about the creep material behavior specially about the heat affected zones (HAZ),accurate and multi-axial creep damage models, etc. In general, creep life forecasting may be categorized into two groups, viz., those that are based on microscopic modeling and others that are based on macroscopic (phemenological) concepts. Many different micro-structural processes may cause creep damage .The micro-structural processes highlight the fact that the creep damages can be due to cavity nucleation and growth. Dislocation creep is another mechanism with micro-structural features such as sub-grain formation and growth, new phase formation, such as the Z phase, coarsening leading to the dissolution of the MX phase. This leads to the removal of pinning precipitates, which allow local heterogeneous sub-grain growth, weakening due to this growth and also to the dissolution of the MX. These features normally lead to the earlier formation of tertiary creep and reduced life. Considering welded joints ,the development of models for practical yet sufficiently accurate creep life forecasting based on micro-structural modeling becomes even more complicated due to variation of material in the base, weld and heat-affected-zone (HAZ) and variation of the micro-structure within HAZ and their interactions. So far, and until this date, none of the micro-structural models can forecast the creep life of industrial components with sufficient accuracy in an economic manner. There are several macroscopic (phemenological) models for creep life forecasting, including: time-fraction rule, strain-fraction rule, the reference stress and skeletal stress method, continuum damage model, etc. Each of which has their own limitations .This paper gauges to a multi-axial yet pragmatic and simple model for creep life forecasting weldment operating at high temperature and subjected to an elastic-plastic-creep deformation. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, the analytical and numerical investigation of a cylindrical shell made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) reinforced by laminated composite subjected to internal pressure is presented. Using the infinitesimal theory of elasticity, the analytical solution of stress and strain in vessels made of FGMs is studied first. It is assumed that the elasticity modulus follows a power law distribution in the thickness direction and Poisson's ratio considered to be constant for simplicity. The results of the finite element method using ABAQUS software for in-homogeneity constant in the range of -2 to 2 have been compared with the analytical results. The comparison represents good coincidence between analytical and numerical results and confirms the accuracy of stress and strain solutions presented for vessel made of FGMs. The stress and strain solutions in laminated composite vessels are then investigated. Finally, modeling of FGM vessel reinforced by composite laminates with different lay-up is taken into consideration. The obtained results demonstrate that in the cylindrical shell reinforced by laminated composites, the maximum stress is considerably less than the maximum stress in the pressure vessels made of just composites or FGMs. تفاصيل المقالة

        Hygrothermal analysis of laminated composite plates has been done by using an efficient higher order shear deformation theory. The stress field derived from hygrothermal fields must be consistent with total strain field in this type of analysis. In the present formulation, the plate model has been implemented with a computationally efficient C0 finite element developed by using consistent strain field. Special steps are introduced to circumvent the requirement of C1coninuity in the original plate formulation and C0 continuity of the present element has been compensated in stiffness matrix calculations. The accuracy of the proposed C0 element is established by comparing the results with those obtained by three dimensional elasticity solutions and other finite element analysis. تفاصيل المقالة

        Displacement finite element models of various beam theories have been developed using traditional finite element interpolations (i.e., Hermite cubic or equi-spaced Lagrange functions). Various finite element models of beams differ from each other in the choice of the interpolation functions used for the transverse deflection w, total rotation φ and/or shear strain γxz, or in the integral form used (e.g., weak form or least-squares) to develop the finite element model. The present study is concerned with the development of alternative beam finite elements using hp-spectral nodal expansions to eliminate shear and membrane locking. Both linear and non-linear analysis are carried out using both displacement and mixed finite element models of the beam theories studied. Results obtained are compared with both analytical (series) solutions and non-linear finite element solutions from literature, and excellent agreement is found for all cases. تفاصيل المقالة

        The forming limit diagram (FLD) is probably the most common representation of sheet metal formability and can be defined as the locus of the principal planar strains where failure is most likely to occur. Low carbon steel sheets have many applications in industries, especially in automotive parts, therefore it is necessary to study the formability of these steel sheets. In this paper, FLDs, were determined experimentally for two grades of low carbon steel sheets using out-of-plane (dome) formability test. The effect of different parameters such as work hardening exponent (n), anisotropy (r) and thickness on these diagrams were studied. In addition, the out-of-plane stretching test with hemispherical punch was simulated by finite element software Abaqus. The limit strains occurred with localized necking were specified by tracing the thickness strain and its first and second derivatives versus time at the thinnest element. Good agreement was achieved between the predicted data and the experimental data. تفاصيل المقالة

        All impact analyses performed so far for the composite plates, have treated central impacts. Furthermore, investigations on influences of the in-plane biaxial compression, tension, or tension-compression preloads on various responses of the low-velocity impact, especially the indentation, have not been performed so far. In the present research, a finite element formulation is presented for response prediction of a low-velocity eccentric impact between a rigid spherical indenter and a laminated composite rectangular plate with asymmetric lamination scheme. Different contact laws are considered for the loading and unloading phases. A parametric study is performed to investigate influence of the specifications of the plates and the indenter, the eccentric value, and the in-plane preloads on the indentation and force time histories. Results show that the compressive and tensile in-plane preloads reduce and increase the contact force (and consequently, the indentation values), respectively. Therefore, the extensive tensile preloads may lead to higher damages. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, a new three dimensional brick finite element based on the strain approach is presented with the purpose of identifying the most effective to analyze linear thick and thin plate bending problems. The developed element which has the three essential external degrees of freedom (U, V and W) at each of the eight corner nodes, is used with a modified elasticity matrix in order to satisfy the basic hypotheses of the theory of plates. The displacements field of the developed element is based on assumed functions for the various strains satisfying the compatibility and the equilibrium equations. New and efficient formulations of this element is discussed in detail, and the results of several examples related to thick and thin plate bending in linear analysis are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed element. The linear analyses using this developed element exhibit an excellent performance over a set of problems. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each time step is split into two phases: an updated Lagrangian phase followed by an Eulerian phase. The implicit time integration method is applied for solving the transient problem in Lagrangian phase with no convective effects. A mesh motion scheme, in which the related equations need not to be solved at every time step, is proposed in Eulerian phase. The critical dynamic stress intensity factor criterion is used to determine the crack velocity. The variation of dynamic stress intensity factor along the crack front is also studied based on the interaction integral method. The proposed algorithm is applied to investigate the dynamic crack propagation in the DCB specimen subjected to fixed displacement. The predicted results are compared with the experimental study cited in the literature and a good agreement is shown. The proposed algorithm leads to the accurate and efficient analysis of dynamic crack propagation process. تفاصيل المقالة

        Present study deals with the prediction of crack initiation angle for mixed mode (I/II) fracture using finite element techniques and J-Integral based approach. The FE code ANSYS is used to estimate the stress intensity factor numerically. The estimated values of SIF were incorporated into six different crack initiation angle criteria to predict the crack initiation angle. Single edge crack specimens of Araldite-Hardener were used for the present analysis. Load was applied up to critical limit of the specimens containing crack at different angles of inclination. The crack initiation angle obtained using stress intensity factor and J-integral based approach were found close to each other and also found to be in good agreement with the available experimental results in literature. It is also investigated that as crack inclination angle increases material was found to behave in a brittle manner. تفاصيل المقالة

        There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized displacements have suffered from shear locking, which has been alleviated with the help of primarily reduced/selective integration techniques to obtain acceptable solutions [1-4]. These kinds of 'fixes' have come into existence because the element stiffness matrix becomes excessively stiff with low-order interpolation functions. In this study we propose an alternative spectrally accurate hp/spectral method to model the Timoshenko beam theory and first order shear deformation theory of plates (FSDT) to eliminate shear and membrane locking. Beams and isotropic and orthotropic plates with clamped and simply supported boundary conditions are analyzed to illustrate the accuracy and robustness of the developed elements. Full integration scheme is employed for all cases. The results are found to be in excellent agreement with those published in literature. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents a finite element formulation for the dynamics analysis of the steady and transient states of a nonlinear piezoelectric beam. A piezoelectric beam with damping is studied under harmonic excitation. A numerical method is used for this analysis. In the paper, the central difference formula of four order is used and compared with the central difference formula of two order in the time response of the structure. The NPBDA program is developed with Matlab software. In this program, the Newmark technique for dynamic analysis is used, the Newton-Raphson iterative and Simpson methods are used for the nonlinear solution. To verify the NPBDA results, the experimental results of Malatkar are used for the nonlinear vibration analysis of a beam without piezoelectric properties. Then, the piezoelectric effect on the frequency mode values and the time response are obtained. Afterwards, the modulation frequency in the nonlinear beam and the piezoelectric effect in this parameter are verified. تفاصيل المقالة

Molecular structural mechanics (MSM)/finite element (FE) Multiscale modeling of carbon nanotube/polymer composites with linear elastic polymer matrix is used to study the effect of CNT vacancy defects on the mechanical properties. The nanotube is modeled at the atomistic scale using MSM, where as the interface we assumed to be bonded by Vander Waals interactions based on the Lennar-Jonze potential at the interface and polymer matrix.

        In this study, the buckling and free vibration of Timoshenko beams resting on variable elastic foundation analyzed by means of a new finite element formulation. The Winkler model has been applied for elastic foundation. A two-node element with four degrees of freedom is suggested for finite element formulation. Displacement and rotational fields are approximated by cubic and quadratic polynomial interpolation functions, respectively. The length of the element is assumed to be so small, so that linear variation could be considered for elastic foundation through the length of the element. By these assumptions and using energy method, stiffness matrix, mass matrix and geometric stiffness matrix of the proposed beam element are obtained and applied to buckling and free vibration analysis. Accuracy of obtained formulation is approved by comparison with the special cases of present problem in other studies. Present formulation shows faster convergence in comparison with conventional finite element formulation. The effects of different parameters on the stability and free vibration of Timoshenko beams investigated and results are completely new. تفاصيل المقالة

        The bending behavior of composites sandwich plates with multi-layered laminated face sheets has been investigated, using a new four-nodded rectangular finite element formulation based on a layer-wise theory. Both, first order and higher-order shear deformation; theories are used in order to model the face sheets and the core, respectively. Unlike any other layer-wise theory, the number of degrees of freedom in this present model is independent of the number of layers. The compatibility conditions as well as the displacement continuity at the interface ‘face sheets–core’ are satisfied. In the proposed model, the three translation components are common for the all sandwich layers, and are located at the mid-plane of the sandwich plate. The obtained results show that the developed model is able to give accurate transverse shear stresses directly from the constitutive equations. Moreover, a parametric study was also conducted to investigate the effect of certain characteristic parameters (core thickness to total thickness ratio, side-to-thickness ratio, boundary conditions, plate aspect ratio, core-to-face sheet anisotropy ratio, core shear modulus to the flexural modulus ratio and degree of orthotropy of the face sheet) on the transverse displacement variation. The numerical results obtained by our model are compared favorably with those obtained via analytical solution and numerical/experimental, results obtained by other models. The results obtained from this investigation will be useful for a more comprehensive understanding of the behavior of sandwich laminates. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present paper, the nonlinear transfinite element procedure recently published by the author is improved by introducing an enhanced convergence criterion to significantly reduce the computational run-times. It is known that transformation techniques have been developed mainly for linear systems, only. Due to using a huge number of time steps, employing the conventional time integration methods requires quite huge computational time and leads to remarkable error accumulation, numerical instability, or numerical damping, especially for long investigation times. The present method specially may be extended to problems where the required time steps are of the order of the round-off errors (e.g., coupled thermoelasticty problems). The present procedure is employed for transient thermoelastic analysis of thick-walled functionally graded cylinders with temperature-dependent material properties, as an example. To reduce the effect of the artificial local heat and stress shock source generation at the mutual boundaries of the elements, second order elements are used. Influences of various parameters on the temperature and stress distributions are investigated. Furthermore, results of the proposed transfinite element technique are compared with the results obtained by other references to verify the validity, accuracy, and efficiency of the proposed method. تفاصيل المقالة

First, BDFs are introduced and computed using energy method such as unit-dummy load method. Afterward, new efficient shape functions are developed in terms of BDFs during the procedure based on the mechanical behavior of the element in which presented shape functions benefit generality and accuracy from stiffness and force method, respectively. Finally, deriving structural matrices of the beam with respect to new shape functions; free vibration and instability analysis of the FGM beam are studied using finite element method for all types of AFGM beams and the convergence of FEM has been studied.

        An efficient C0 continuous two dimensional (2D) finite element (FE) model is developed based on a refined higher order shear deformation theory (RHSDT) for the static analysis of soft core sandwich plate having imperfections at the layer interfaces. In this (RHSDT) theory, the in-plane displacement field for the face sheets and the core is obtained by superposing a globally varying cubic displacement field on a zig-zag linearly varying displacement field. The transverse displacement is assumed to have a quadratic variation within the core and it remains constant in the faces beyond the core. In this theory, the interfacial imperfection is represented by a liner spring-layer model. The proposed model satisfies the condition of transverse shear stress continuity at the layer interfaces and the zero transverse shear stress condition at the top and bottom of the sandwich plate. The nodal field variables are chosen in an efficient manner to circumvent the problem of C1 continuity requirement of the transverse displacements associated with the RHSDT. The proposed model is implemented to analyze the laminated composites and sandwich plates having interfacial imperfection. Many new results are also presented which should be useful for the future research. تفاصيل المقالة

        Stable ductile crack growth in 3 mm thick AISI 304 stainless steel specimens has been investigated experimentally and numerically. Multi-linear Isotropic Hardening method coupled with the Von-Mises yield criterion was adopted for modeling elasto-plastic behavior of the material. Mode-I CT fracture specimens have been tested to generate experimental load-displacement-crack growth data during stable crack growth. The critical fracture energy (JIc) was then determined using the finite elements results in conjunction with the experimental data. The effect of in-plane constraints on the numerical-experimental JIc calculation was then investigated. The results of finite element solution were used to tailor an exponential CZM model for simulation of mode-I stable crack growth in CT specimens. It is found that the adopted CZM is generally insensitive to the applied constraints to the crack tip stress state and thus it can effectively be used for simulating crack growth in this material. تفاصيل المقالة

        Auxetic cellular solids in the forms of honeycombs and foams have great potential in a diverse range of applications, including as core material in curved sandwich panel composite components, radome applications, directional pass band filters, adaptive and deployable structures, filters and sieves, seat cushion material, energy absorption components, viscoelastic damping materials and fastening devices etc.In this paper, the characteristic of wave propagation in sandwich panel with auxetic core is analyzed. A three-layer sandwich panel is considered which is discretized in the thickness direction by using semi-analytical finite element method. Wave propagation equations are obtained through some algebraic manipulation and applying standard finite element assembling procedures. The mechanical properties of auxetic core can be described by the geometric parameters of the unit cell and mechanical properties of the virgin core material. The characteristics of wave propagation in sandwich panel with conventional hexagonal honeycomb core and re-entrant auxetic core are discussed, and effects of panel thickness, geometric properties of unit cell on dispersive curves are also discussed. Variations of Poisson’s ratio and core density with inclined angle are presented. تفاصيل المقالة

        The paper deals with devising the combination of fuzzy inference systems (FIS) and neural networks called the adaptive network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to determine the forming limit diagram (FLD). In this paper, FLDs are determined experimentally for two grades of low carbon steel sheets using out-of-plane (dome) formability test. The effect of different parameters such as work hardening exponent (n), anisotropy (r) and thickness on these diagrams were studied. The out-of-plane stretching test with hemispherical punch was simulated by finite element software Abaqus. The limit strains occurred with localized necking were specified by tracing the thickness strain and its first and second derivatives versus time at the thinnest element. In addition, to investigate the effect of different parameters such as work hardening exponent (n), anisotropy (r) and thickness on these diagrams, a machine learning algorithm is used to simulate a predictive framework. The method of learning algorithm uses the rudiments of neural computing through layering the FIS and using hybrid-learning optimization algorithm. In other words, for building the training database of ANFIS, the experimental work and finite element software Abaqus are used to obtain limit strains. Good agreement was achieved between the predicted data and the experimental results. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, mechanical buckling analysis of composite annular sector plates with bean shape cut out is studied. Composite material sector plate made of Glass-Epoxy and Graphite-Epoxy with eight layers with same thickness but different fiber angles for each layer. Mechanical loading to form of uniform pressure loading in radial, environmental and biaxial directions is assumed. The method used in this analysis is three dimensional (3D) finite elements based on the elasticity relations. With zero first and second variation of potential energy of the entire annular sector plate, we find stability equation. Green non-linear displacement strain relations to obtain geometric stiffness matrix is ​​used. Unlike many studies, in present work three dimensional finite elements method has been used with an eight node element and meshing in the thickness direction is done, too. The bean shaped cut out in the sector has increased the complexity of the analysis. The continuing, effect of different parameters including cut out dimensions, fiber angles of layers, loading direction and dimensions of the annular sector plate on the mechanical buckling load has been investigated and interesting results have been obtained. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, the free vibration analysis of moderately thick rectangular plates axially moving with constant velocity and subjected to uniform in-plane loads is investigated by the spectral finite element method. Two parallel edges of the plate are assumed to be simply supported and the remaining edges have any arbitrary boundary conditions. Using Hamilton’s principle, three equations of motion for the plate are developed based on first-order shear deformation theory. The equations are transformed from the time domain into the frequency domain by assuming harmonic solutions. Then, the frequency-dependent dynamic shape functions obtained from the exact solution of the governing differential equations is used to develop the spectral stiffness matrix. By solving a non-standard eigenvalue problem, the natural frequencies and the critical speeds of the moving plates are obtained. The exactness and validity of the results are verified by comparing them with the results in previous studies. By the developed method some examples for vibration of stationary and moving moderately thick plates with different boundary conditions are presented. The effects of some parameters such as the axially speed of plate motion, the in-plane forces, aspect ratio and length to thickness ratio on the natural frequencies and the critical speeds of the moving plate are investigated. These results can be used as a benchmark for comparing the accuracy and precision of the other analytical and numerical methods. تفاصيل المقالة

        Power supply is a bottle-neck problem of wireless micro-sensors, especially where the replacement of batteries is impossible or inconvenient. Now piezoelectric material is being used to harvest vibration energy for self-powered sensors. However, the geometry of a piezoelectric cantilever beam will greatly affect its vibration energy harvesting ability. This paper deduces a remarkably precise analytical formula for calculating the fundamental resonant frequency of V-shaped cantilevers using Rayleigh-Ritz method. This analytical formula, which is very convenient for mechanical energy harvester design based on Piezoelectric effect, is then validated by ABAQUS simulation. This formula raises a new perspective that, among all the V-shaped cantilevers and in comparison with rectangular one, the simplest tapered cantilever can lead to maximum resonant frequency and highest sensitivity. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, a two-dimensional computational model is proposed for predicting the initiation position and propagation path of subsurface crack of spur gear tooth flank. In order to simulate the contact of teeth, an equivalent model of two contacting cylinders is used. The problem is assumed to be under linear elastic fracture mechanic conditions and finite element method is used for numerical study. An initial subsurface crack is considered in the model at different depths. For each position of the initial crack, moving contact loading is applied to the part and value of ∆KII is obtained for the crack tips. The position of maximum ∆KII is selected as the location of crack initiation. It is shown that the subsurface crack appears at the maximum shear stress point. The maximum tangential stress criterion is used to determine the crack growth angle. The crack is incrementally propagated until the crack tip reaches the part surface and a cavity is formed on the tooth surface. Analyzing the stress field and stress intensity factors are performed in ABAQUS software. The obtained results for the depth and shape of the spall are in good agreement with the experimental results reported in literature. تفاصيل المقالة

        Herein paper compares the analytical model with the FEM based numerical model of the axisymmetric bending of circular sandwich plates. Also, the paper describes equations of the circular symmetrical sandwich plates bending with isotropic face sheets and the nonlinear elastic core material. The method of constructing an analytical solution of nonlinear differential equations has been described. The perturbation method for differential equations with small parameters is used to represent nonlinear differential equations as a sequence of linear equations. Linear differential equations are reduced to Bessel’s equation. It is compared results of analytical model with results of other researches using two problems: 1) the problem of axisymmetric transverse bending of a circular sandwich plate, 2) the problem of axisymmetric transverse bending of an annular sandwich plate. The effect of accounting nonlinear elastic core material on the strain state of the sandwich plate is described. تفاصيل المقالة

        Buckling strength of composite latticed cylindrical shells is one of the important parameters for studying the failure of these structures. In this paper, new governing differential equations are derived for latticed cylindrical shells and their critical buckling axial loads. The nested structure under compressive axial buckling load was analyzed. Finite Element Method (FEM) was applied to model the structure in order to verify the analytical results. The obtained results were validated based upon the results of previous case studies in literature. For the squared type of lattice composite shells, a new formula for the buckling load was developed and its value was compared to the critical load, using FEM with 3D beam elements. The processes were carried out for three different materials of Carbon/Epoxy, Kevlar/Epoxy and EGlass/Epoxy. تفاصيل المقالة

        The study of vibration response of a turbine blade helps to detect the crack presence in the blade which alters its dynamic characteristics. The change is characterized by changes in the modal parameters associated with natural frequencies. In this paper, study of vibration response is made for turbine blade in the presence of a crack like defect. Turbine blade is initially assumed as a cantilever beam. Modal testing has been carried out for both the beams with different crack depth and crack location ratios using FFT spectrum analyzer and ANSYS software. From the analysis, it has been observed that the crack depth and its location have noticeable effect on the natural frequencies. Later the same cantilever beam was twisted with different angle of twists to validate the cantilever beam model to turbine blade. تفاصيل المقالة

        The need for compatibility between degrees of freedom of various elements is a major problem encountered in practice during the modeling of complex structures; the problem is generally solved by an additional rotational degree of freedom [1-3]. This present paper investigates possible improvements to the performances of strain based cylindrical shell finite element [4] by introducing an additional rotational degree of freedom. The resulting element has 24 degrees of freedom, six essential external degrees of freedom at each of the four nodes and thus, avoiding the difficulties associatedwithinternal degrees of freedom (the three translations and three rotations) and the displacement functions of the developed element satisfy the exact representation of the rigid body motion and constant strains (in so far as this allowed by compatibility equations). Numerical experiments analysis have been conducted to assess accuracy and reliability of the present element, this resulting element with the added degree of freedom is found to be numerically more efficient in practical problems than the corresponding Ashwell element [4]. تفاصيل المقالة

        The free vibration analysis of the functionally graded cylindrical shell panels with and without cutout is carried out using the finite element method based on a higher-order shear deformation theory. A higher-order theory is used to properly account for transverse shear deformation. An eight noded degenerated isoparametric shell element with nine degrees of freedom at each node is considered. The stiffness and mass matrices are derived based on the principle of minimum potential energy. The stiffness and mass matrices of the element are evaluated by performing numerical integration using the Gaussian quadrature. The effect of volume fraction exponent on the fundamental natural frequency of simply supported and clamped functionally graded cylindrical shell panel without a cutout is studied for various aspect ratios and arc-length to thickness ratios. Results are presented for variation of the fundamental natural frequency of the cylindrical shell panel with cutout size for simply supported and clamped boundary conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Safety and failure in gas pipelines are very important in gas and petroleum industry. For this reason, it is important to study the effect of different parameters in order to reach the maximum safety in design and application. In this paper, a three dimensional finite element analysis is carried out to study the effect of crack length, crack depth, crack position, internal pressure and pipe thickness on failure mode and safety of API X65 gas pipe. Four levels are considered for each parameter and finite element simulations are carried out by using design of experiments (DOE). Then, multi-objective Taguchi method is conducted in order to minimize x and y coordinates of Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD). So, desired levels that minimize the coordinates and rises the possibility of safety are derived for each parameter. The variation in FAD coordinates according to the changes in each parameter are also found. Finally, comparisons between the optimum design and all other experiments and simulations have shown a good safety situation. It is also concluded that the more design parameters close to optimum levels, the better safety condition will occur in FAD. A verification study is performed on the safety of longitudinal semi-elliptical crack and the results has shown a good agreement between numerical and experimental results. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of Levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. Levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. In the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are transformed from time domain into frequency domain by discrete Fourier transform theory. Then, the spectral stiffness matrix is formulated, using frequency-dependent dynamic shape functions which are obtained from the exact solution of the governing differential equations. An efficient numerical algorithm, using drawing method is used to extract the natural frequencies. The frequency domain dynamic responses are obtained from solution of the spectral element equation. Also, the time domain dynamic responses are derived by using inverse discrete Fourier transform algorithm. The accuracy and excellent performance of the spectral finite element method is then compared with the results obtained from closed form solution methods in previous studies. Finally, comprehensive results for out-of-plane natural frequencies and transverse displacement of the moderately thick rectangular plates with six different combinations of boundary conditions are presented. These results can serve as a benchmark to compare the accuracy and precision of the numerical methods used. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) is employed to investigate the statics and vibration problems of cracked isotropic bars and beams. Three kinds of elements namely the standard, the blended and the enriched elements are utilized to discretize the structure and model cracks. Two techniques referred as the increase of the number of Gauss integration points and the rectangle sub-grid are applied to refine the integration within the blended and enriched elements of the beam in which the priority of the developed rectangle sub-grid technique is identified. The stiffness and the mass matrices of the beam are extended by considering the Heaviside and the crack tip functions. In a plane stress analysis, the effects of various crack positions and depths, different boundary conditions and other geometric parameters on the displacement and the stress contours are detected. Moreover, in a free vibration analysis, changes of the natural frequencies and the mode shapes due to the aforementioned effects are determined. تفاصيل المقالة

        The multi-scale finite element method is used to study the vibrational characteristics of polymer matrix reinforced by single-walled silicon carbide nanotubes. For this purpose, the nanoscale finite element method is employed to simulate the nanotubes at the nanoscale. While, the polymer is considered as a continuum at the larger scale. The polymer nanotube interphase is simulated by spring elements. The natural frequencies of nanocomposites with different nanotube volume percentages are computed. Besides, the influences of nanotube geometrical parameters on the vibrational characteristics of the nanocomposites are evaluated. It is shown that reinforcing polymer matrix by single-walled silicon carbide nanotubes leads to increasing the natural frequency compared to neat resin. Increasing the length of the nanotubes at the same diameter results in increasing the difference between the frequencies of nanocomposite and pure polymer. Besides, it is observed that clamped-free nanocomposites experience a larger increase in the presence of the nanotubes than clamped-clamped nanotube reinforced polymers. تفاصيل المقالة

Seepage will decrease effective tension in the earth-dam's core and arching phenomena is occurred. More settlement of core than to shell is the consequence of arching and occurrence of cracking. In this paper, GeoStudio software based on finite element scheme was used to simulate numerical modeling of Safarood earth-dam according to two scenarios: (a) after construction; (b) after the first water impounding. Doing calibration and verification processes in SEEP/W and SIGMA/W modules, nonlinear elastic behavior and Mohr-Coulomb's elastic-plastic behavior was determined for core and body of the dam during calibration and verification processes with correlation coefficient of 0.94 and 0.921 between measured and calculated data. In this research, vertical tension distribution, horizontal and vertical displacement, and total tension were calculated and analyzed. After the first water impounding at ratio y/h less than 0.1, hydraulic failure is probable in Safarood earth-dam. تفاصيل المقالة

        منیفولد دود به علت هندسه پیچیده و شرایط بارگذاری يکی از چالش برانگیزترين قطعات موتور است. این قطعه باید نوسانات سیکلی تنش های ترمومکانیکی را در طول عمر خود تحمل کند. بنابراین شبیه سازی و تحلیل ترک های خستگی آن لازم و ضروری است. در این پژوهش، تحلیل عمر خستگی کم چرخه منیفولد دود با استفاده از روش اجزای محدود و نرم افزار آباکوس به منظور پیش بینی دما و تنش و سپس عمر خستگی با استفاده از معیار چندمحوره صفحه بحرانی براون-میلر و نرم افزار MSC-FATIGUE انجام شده است. از ترکیب الگوی سخت شوندگی غیرخطی همگن-سینماتیک چابوچه با قانون تنش ویسکوز به منظور درنظر گرفتن اثر تنش ویسکوزیته استفاده شده است. نتایج تحلیل ترمومکانیکی نشان داد که بیشینه دما و تنش وان-مایسز 7/757 درجه سانتی¬گراد و 2/395 مگاپاسکال است و موقعیت آن در ناحیه همریختگاه است. پس همریختگاه منیفولد دود موتور ناحیه بحرانی است و احتمال ایجاد ترک های خستگی در آن وجود دارد. عمر خستگی منیفولد دود بدون و با در نظرگرفتن اثر تنش ویسکوزیته به ترتیب 9310 و 8850 سیکل محاسبه گردید. به عبارت دیگر درنظر نگرفتن اثر تنش ویسکوزیته در تحلیل عمر خستگی باعث می شود که تعداد سیکل های گسیختگی 460 سیکل یا حدود 2/5 درصد بیشتر از میزان مجاز تخمین زده شود. بنابراین لازم است اثر تنش ویسکوزیته در تحلیل عمر خستگی منیفولد دود درنظر گرفته شود. براي بررسي صحت نتايج تحلیل ترمومکانیکی و عمر خستگی، نتايج شبيه سازي شده با نمونه واقعي منیولد دود آسيب ديده مقايسه گردید و نشان داده شد که نواحي بحراني، مطابقت مناسبی با نواحي گسیختگی در نمونه واقعي دارد. تفاصيل المقالة

        با پیشرفت علم دانشمندان روش‌های جدید را جایگزین روش‌های قدیمی می‌کنند. امروزه خودرو سازان جهت کاهش وزن خودرو‌ها از ورق‌هایی با ضخامت پایین استفاده می‌کنند که جهت شکل‌دهی آنها نیاز به روش‌های جدیدی می‌باشد. شکل‌دهی الکترومغناطیس یک روش شکل‌دهی می‌باشد که بوسیله آن می‌توان قطعات بسیار نازک را شکل‌دهی نمود. در شکل دهی الکترومغناطیس با تخلیه انرژی الکتریکی در سیم‌پیچ‌های آن میدان مغناطیسی به وجود می‌آید که همانند سنبه ولی بدون اثر گذاری قطعه-کار را به سمت قالب هدایت می‌کند و باعث شکل‌دهی آن می‌شود. این عمل در مدت زمان کمتر از یک میکروثانیه انجام می‌شود و باعث می‌شود تعداد قطعات تولید شده از این روش افزایش یابند. با توجه به اینکه سیم‌پیچ‌ها رابط بین دستگاه و قطعه‌کار می‌باشند، در این پژوهش به بررسی عددی و تجربی تعداد دور سیم‌پیچ و ولتاژ در شکل‌دهی الکترومغناطیس پرداخته می‌شود. جهت انجام آزمایش‌های عملی سیم‌پیچ‌های الکترومغناطیس ساخته شده و با استفاده از دستگاه الکترومغناطیس با قدرت 3 کیلوژول آزمایش‌ها انجام می‌شوند. جهت انجام آزمایش‌های عددی نیز از نرم‌افزار آباکوس و جی‌مگ استفاده شده است که نتایج عددی با نتایج تجربی مطابقت خوبی داشته است. پس از انجام آزمایش‌ها، مشاهده شد که سیم‌پیچ‌ها باید هم مساحت با قطعه‌کار در نظر گرفته شوند و جهت شکل‌دهی مساحت‌های بزرگی از ورق باید شکل‌دهی در چند مرحله با سیم‌پیچ‌های کوچک انجام شود. همچنین جهت افزایش استحکام سیم‌پیچ‌ها در زمان شکل‌دهی باید سیم‌پیچ‌ها در محلول‌های اف کا 20 قرار گیرند. تفاصيل المقالة

        امروزه مواد فوق ریز دانه به دلیل خواص کم نظیر خود جایگاه ویژه ای در صنایع مختلف پیدا کرده اند. با کاهش اندازه دانه، سهم اتم‌های موجود در مرز دانه‌ها افزایش‌یافته و زیادشدن مرز دانه ها موجب جلوگیری از حرکت نابه جایی ها و بالا رفتن استحکام می-شود. یکی از روش های تولید مواد فوق ریز دانه، اعمال تغییر شکل پلاستیک شدید می باشد. جهت اعمال تغییر شکل پلاستیک می-توان از روش های بسیاری استفاده نمود که در این پژوهش از کانال های زاویه دار موازی استفاده می شود. جهت بررسی عددی این فرایند از نرم افزار المان محدود آباکوس و جهت بهینه سازی نتایج از روش شبکه عصبی و الگوریتم ژنتیک استفاده شده است. در این پژوهش اثر پارامتر های قالب که شامل زاویه کانال، طول لوله، افزایش اختلاف قطر و ضریب اصطکاک می باشد، بررسی می شود. نتایج نشان داد که ضریب اصطکاک و طول لوله مورد آزمایش هر کدام جداگانه بر همگن شدن توزیع کرنش بسیار نقش داشته است، به طوری که با افزایش مقدار ضریب اصطکاک تعریفی و کاهش میزان طول لوله، توزیع کرنش به سمت همگنی و یکنواختی سوق پیدا خواهد کرد. تفاضل افزایش قطر لوله و زاویه کانال قالب تاثیر چندانی بر بهبود یکنواختی توزیع کرنش نخواهند داشت. از سوی دیگر افزایش ضریب اصطکاک، طول لوله و افزایش قطر لوله هر کدام جداگانه منجر به افزایش نیروی فرایند می شوند درحالی که افزایش زاویه کانال قالب منجر به کاهش نیروی شکل دهی شد. تفاصيل المقالة

        در این این مقاله بررسی تاثیر خواص مواد مختلف بر روی فرکانسهای طبیعی و شکل مود ارتعاشی پوسته دیفرانسیل نوعی ماشین سنگین مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. خواص مکانیکی مواد مختلف نقش بسزایی در تعیین فرکانسهای خروجی و تغییر شکلهای ارتعاشی در یک سیستم ایفا میکنند. به این منظور در نرم افزار طراحی CATIA مدل دیفرانسیل ایجاد و به نرم افزار شبیه ساز ABAQUS وارد شده است که قابلیت بالایی در تخمین رفتار دینامیکی سیستم‌های مختلف دارد. موادی نظیر چدن خاکستری با قابلیت جذب ارتعاش بالا، فولاد با چگالی و صلبیت زیاد و آلیاژهای آلومینیوم و منیزیم با چگالی پایین برای پوسته دیفرانسیل مورد بررسی قرار گرفته‌اند. نتایج بررسی نشان داد که محدوده فرکانس طبیعی پنج مود اول ارتعاشی در این مواد با یکدیگر متفاوت و انتخاب چدن خاکستری می‌تواند ضمن کاهش ارتعاش از ایجاد پدیده تشدید جلوگیری نماید. بخش دیگری از شبیه‌سازی عددی به بررسی تاثیر نوع اتصال بین دو قسمت دیفرانسیل بر روی رفتار دینامیکی اختصاص یافته است. به این منظور یکی از پیچ‌های اتصال دو قسمت دیفرانسیل به صورت محکم نشده در نرم افزار وارد شد، عیبی که ممکن است در هنگام تعمیرات توسط اپراتور ایجاد شود. نتایج شبیه‌سازی عددی حاکی از اینست که با محکم نکردن تنها یکی از پیچ‌های اتصال، فرکانس‌های طبیعی حدود 3 تا 4 درصد کاهش می‌یابد که این امر می‌تواند احتمال ایجاد پدیده تشدید را افزایش دهد. تفاصيل المقالة

        The electromechanical analysis of a piezoresistive pressure microsensor with a square-shaped diaphragm for low-pressure biomedical applications is presented. This analysis is developed through a novel model and a finite element method (FEM) model. A microsensor with a diaphragm 1000 „m length and with thickness=400 µm is studied. The electric response of this microsensor is obtained with applying voltage into senseor in p-type piezoresistors located on the diaphragm surface. The diaphragm that is 10 „m thickexhibits a maximum deflection of 3.74 „m using the designed model, which has a relative difference of 5.14 and 0.92% with respect to the comsol model, respectively. The maximum sensitivity and normal stress calculated using the this model are 1.64 mV/V/kPa and 102.1 MPa, respectively. The results of the polynomial model agree well with the Timoshenko model and FEM model for small deflections. In addition, the designed model can be easily used to predict the deflection, normal stress, electric response and sensitivity of a piezoresistive pressure microsensor with a square-shaped diaphragm under small deflections. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, using the data of Iran's permanent geodynamic network in two six-month APECs in 2007, a two-dimensional model of surface deformation of the Earth's crust in Iran will be presented. For this purpose, two methods of numerical solution, one finite element and the other method of relative distance changes, have been used to calculate the strain tensor. In the finite element method, the results obtained depend on the shape of the element. Of course, this issue should be studied in practice and the results should be compared. This method gives the same answer to the hypothesis that the deformation is homogeneous in the desired element only for homogeneous networks with any type of elementation. The resulting strain for the center of gravity of all the elements was the same size and in the same direction, indicating the homogeneity of the deformation in the lattice. تفاصيل المقالة

        ABSTRACT Using the reliability index to express a system’s safety, reliability theory is applied to study a structure’s failure probability due to the uncertainty (i.e., randomness) of design and production parameters with (a) variability in working conditions and the environment and (b) direct interaction with the soil, the conventional approach has been based on deterministic design methods. In contrast, using the concept of reliability as a new and useful approach, we develop the industry of design and manufacture of agricultural machinery. In this study, the first-order reliability method (FORM) was used to analyze the reliability of a plow bottom standard. To perform the reliability analysis, the required forces on the standard were determined by simulating the interaction of the plow with the soil using finite element method by Abaqus software. Random variables were considered as longitudinal and vertical forces on the bottom standard, radius of the standard arc, plastic cross-section modulus, and yield stress. The reliability index (β) as a measure of the system’s safety of was determined using reliability analysis whose value was found to be 2.569 for the bottom's standard. Moreover, the failure probability (Pf) of the bottom's standard was calculated as 0.005. In the final step, the results of FORM reliability analysis were compared with the reliability results of the Monte Carlo simulation of the plow bottom’s standard. The results showed that the bottom standard’s probability of failure in the FORM and Monte Carlo methods for the conditions considered—i.e., very compacted soil, plowing depth of 30 cm, and velocity of 3 m s-1—are low and almost low, respectively. Also due to the lack of lateral force FX in the limit state function, the FORM analysis indicated sufficient uncertainty of the bottom standard design; therefore, strengthening or optimizing this part of the moldboard plow chassis seems necessary. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, finding Dynamic Load Carrying Capacity (DLCC) of flexible link manipulators in point to-point motion was formulated as an optimal control problem. The finite element method was employed for modelling and deriving the dynamic equations of the system. The study employed indirect solution of optimal control for system motion planning. Due to offline nature of the method, many difficulties such system nonlinearities and all types of constraints can be catered for and implemented easily. The application of Pontryagin’s minimum principle to this problem was resulted in a standard two-point boundary value problem (TPBVP), solved numerically. Then, the formulation was developed to find the maximum payload and corresponding optimal path. The main advantage of the proposed method is that the various optimal trajectories can be obtained with different characteristics and different maximum payloads. Therefore, the designer can select a suitable path among the numerous optimal paths. In order to verify the effectiveness of the method, a simulation study considering a two-link flexible manipulator was presented in details. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents the application of three main Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in damage detection of steel bridges. This method has the ability to indicate damage in structural elements due to a localized change of stiffness called damage zone. The changes in structural response is used to identify the states of structural damage. To circumvent the difficulty arising from the non-linear nature of the inverse problem, three neural networks, Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLPNN), Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) and General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) are employed to simulate damage states of steel bridges. It was observed that the performance of all three networks is well and they have good agreement with actual results performed with Finite Element analysis. The efficiency of GRNN in structural identification is so good, although RBFNN has results close to GRNN and MLPNN results are satisfactory. All networks have good results while there is a little damage in structural members. Generally, results would have more error when damages in structural members extend. The engineering importance of the whole exercise can be appreciated once we realize that the measured input at only a few locations in the structure is needed in the identification process using neural networks. تفاصيل المقالة

        Despite the fact that soccer is one of the most popular sports in the world, little attention has been paid to this game scientifically which could otherwise provide a broad range of interesting outcomes. Sport equipment has a significant effect on how a game is played. Different features of the soccer ball such as its size, structure, weight and potential incoming pressure also affect the nature and quality of the game. Different models of soccer balls have been developed with the aim of increasing game quality and performance. Many scholars have investigated the displacements during typical soccer games caused by the ball impulse and the feet, but few studies have focused on the interaction between the ball and the feet. The aim of the present study is, thus, to investigate tension development and possible deformations caused by kicking the ball. Players who are well aware of soccer rules and have a little knowledge about soccer-induced injuries easily realize that the impulse of a non-standard ball considering its material, size or weight may severely damage the knees or other body parts. Due to the importance of the issue, to evaluate the impact of the soccer ball on the footballer’s feet, two finite element models of typical soccer balls have been studied with respect to the standard features of the real soccer ball in the three layers of leather, thread and rubber. The first model is proportional to the mass of the standard ball and the second incorporates a mass less than the standard level. Two models of bones are used in the present study: a single layer bone and a two-layer bone with cortical and cancellous tissues. For better understanding of the injuries resulting from the impulse from a non-standard ball, the used finite element software employs mechanic laws of sport biomechanics to provide better understanding of the details using mathematical modeling, computer simulation and experimental measurements. In this regard, this significant point is achieved through modeling the ball impulse to the feet which is quite complex and needs some simplification. As the soccer ball is flexible, most of the force is absorbed by the model’s flexibility. In the other model with a less flexible ball, the force absorbed by the bone is significantly more. تفاصيل المقالة

        Assessing the behavior of composite structures which are subjected to impact loads is one of the important subjects in the field of mechanical sciences. Using thin-walled tubes which collapsed and absorbed the impact energy is a well-known method to prevent damages to the other parts of the structures. In this paper, deformations, crushing length, peak load, mean force and energy absorption capacity of thin-walled circular composite tubes are investigated both experimentally and numerically. In order to experimental study, three circular composite tubes were fabricated and subjected to quasi-static axial load. Also, a finite element model was constructed and analyzed under same conditions using FEM27 and LS-DYNA software packages. The results of simulations are in good agreement with the experimental data and show that the section geometry has considerable effect on the energy absorption. The circular composite tube has the most energy absorption capacity and the most average force among all investigated sections. تفاصيل المقالة

The main purpose of this study is to numerically investigate the behavior of the recent kind of the steel moment connections which are called as steel self-centering post-tensioned connections. The steel post-tensioned connections consisted of some high strength strands for self-centering feature plus energy dissipater angles for adjustment of plastic deformation. This paper studies on the steel self-centering post-tensioned connections using the finite element method. The obtained results are verified based on the experimental study. Accordingly, the energy dissipation, rigidity percentage, and ductility factor of the connections are determined. Results revealed the perfect self-centering with the proper ductility factor. Furthermore, it was observed that the post-tensioned steel connections have a high plastic rotation capacity without any damages to the column and beam. تفاصيل المقالة

        When the out-of-plane stiffness of a beam is remarkably lower than the in-plane stiffness, the lateral-torsional buckling occurs. In this study, the behavior of mono-symmetric I-beams with discrete torsional and lateral bracings under the concentrated moment is investigated using the finite element analyses. Then, based on the numerical analyses, equation for the stiffness requirement is proposed. The results show that the location and the type of the bracing have an important role on the stiffness requirement and buckling strength. تفاصيل المقالة

        The system of steel shear wall is an initiative resistance system against the lateral load such as an earthquake and the wind that has been researched in the last three decades. Currently, this system is noticed more than other systems because of adequate stiffness, ductility, and more energy absorption. The system of steel shear wall with corrugated sheets has been offered as an innovative system, since the construction of panels for hard-set steel shear wall is expensive and also it causes the increscent of weight construction. This type of system has been developed using of hard outer plate from geometry of corrugation shape that has better buckling strength than hard-set and flat case in this study. This study is conducted to compare the strength and energy dissipation capacity of three different steel shear walls: unstiffened, trapezoidally vertical corrugated and trapezoidally horizontal corrugated under vibration load of AISC 341-10 instruction with 100mm movement. The results reveal that although the ultimate strength of the unstiffened model is nearly 17% larger compared to that of the corrugated models, energy dissipation capacity of the corrugated models are approximately 52% larger compared to the unstiffened model. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper a new isolating system is introduced for short to mid-rise buildings. In comparison to conventional systems such as LRB and HRB, the proposed system has the advantage of no need to cutting edge technology and has low manufacturing cost. This system is made up of two orthogonal pairs of pillow-shaped rollers that are located between flat bed and plates. By using this system in two perpendicular directions, building can move in all horizontal directions with respect to its foundation. Due to the pillow shape of the roller, this system has self-centering capability which causes it to return to its original position after the earthquake. The rolling friction force between pillows and their bed creates some damping in the system which prevents it from further oscillation after earthquake excitations diminish. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the proposed isolation system’s performance under different earthquake excitations. First of all general features of the proposed isolators have been introduced followed by the analytical equations of the system. Vertical bearing capacity and the effects of the thickness of pillows has been investigated using ABAQUS software. It has been shown that for a pair of pillows of 58 cm width, 45 cm height and 100 cm length the vertical load bearing capacity of the system is more than 300 tons. The period of system with respect to the height and radius of curvature of the rollers, and seismic response of a building, assumed as a rigid body resting on isolators, has been studied subjected to simultaneous effects of horizontal and vertical excitations. It has been shown that the proposed system can reduce the absolute acceleration in the building around 78% in average, while the building’s maximum displacement is around 1.77 times of the ground in average. تفاصيل المقالة

        The Welding in cold formed areas is not only an open question for statically loaded sections (brittle fracture) but also for dynamically loaded structures (fatigue resistance). A lot of structures are subjected to dynamic loadings and unfortunately very little information about the influence of welding in the cold formed areas on fatigue resistance is available. In order to establish the fatigue behavior of welded and non-welded rectangular hollow sections specimens, a large number of 4-point bending tests are performed at the Saud Bin Laden Group SBG with cooperation with Buro Happold UK, Laboratory for Steel. Because these tests are very expensive, and because of the large number of parameters regarding the RHS to be investigated (steel grade, wall thickness, load distribution, boundary conditions), a number of finite element models for these specimens are made. By modeling the specimens with different types of finite elements (shells, solids) and taking into account some types of loading distributions and boundary conditions, the obtained results (stresses, strains, displacements) from a static analysis are compared with those obtained from the real 4-points bending tests. In this way, the obtained conclusions would lead to decrease of the number of the specimens that need to be tested as well as the costs of the project. Furthermore, by using finite element analysis, many factors with direct influence on the fatigue resistance can be considered. تفاصيل المقالة

        Buckle folds are common traps for hydrocarbon in several contractional provinces. Buckle folds form where stratified sequences rest a top salt or some other utterly weak rock as a decollemet zone in units with high competency contrasts by a compressive stress which acted along the length of the rock layers. An important parameter affecting buckle folding of a competent zone above a mobile decollement is existence of a thick lower decollemet. In this paper the effect of detachment zone on folding of rock layers is studied using finite element method. Large deformation formulation is considered. Mohr-Coulomb plasticity model is used to deal with nonlinearity of material during folding. Two cases of folding are considered. In the first case a symmetric fold with equal detachment thickness beneath two flanks is analyzed. In the second case detachment zone is omitted in one flank. Finally, the effect of detachment zone on folding and deformed shape of buckle fold is studied. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nowadays, the placement of artificial prostheses in human skeleton, etc. is common due to different reasons such as fractures or deficiencies. Prostheses are structures that assist the performance of organs by reconstruction of some body parts through different methods to enable the organ to re-obtain its performance completely or partially and, since the use of external prostheses might lead to issues such as severe traumas, slow recovery and imposition of enormous hospital costs on the patient, therefore, use of internal prostheses can be an effective method for accelerating the process of improvement for the patient. By using CT-scan photos of a 54-year-old man weighing 60 kg and with a femur length of 36 centimeters, and also using a titanium prosthesis with diameters equaling 9 and 13 mm along with screws with diameters of 4 mm whose placement are with angles of ±4, ±4 and ±36 degrees, the geometry of the model has been provided and the model has been analyzed through the finite element method. Results indicated that in case of using the prosthesis with the diameter of 13 mm and screws of 4 mm with angle of +36, the least stress will be imposed on the bone and prosthesis. تفاصيل المقالة

        Masonry infill walls are often used as non-structural elements. According to the past structural failure, ignorance of interaction between infill walls and enclosed frame may lead to the different seismic response for non-ductile building frames. The main contribution of this paper is to analytically investigate the behavior of reinforced concrete with masonry infill panels as participating structural. In doing so, a finite element model based on an equivalent strut method is conducted to represent the behavior of masonry panels. The strut model is calibrated using the results of the companion experimental program, which examined the cyclic behavior of infill panels with and without FRP sheets. Accordingly, a nonlinear spring element and a shell element are used to simulate the behavior of masonry strut elements and FRP sheets, respectively. The nonlinear static analysis (Push over analysis) is accomplished using SAP2000 [1] structural analysis software for a 10-story building with FRP sheets subjec تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the best methods to achieving renewable and clean energy is piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs), which convert mechanical and vibration energy into electrical energy. These generators appeared after the special and unique capabilities of piezoelectric and vibration to electrical energy can be directly converted. The use of these generators is seen in many fields including the use of roads and bridges to convert vibrations caused by the vehicles in to electrical energy and other thing. In this study a piezoelectric energy harvester with the feature of parallel piezoelectric connections was computer simulated using a finite element method. In a computer simulation unlike laboratory method that can only analyze one form of a system, different states and situations of factors can be simulated. In this study, to achieve an optimal state of power and output voltage of an existing PEH, the effects and behaviors of different parameters such as forces, frequencies, temperatures, housing dimensions, piezoelectric materials and the presence of isolators have been investigated. In addition, to obtain the significance of these factors, using the analysis of variance method, the importance and effectiveness of each of these parameters has been investigated. The results revealed that increasing the amount of force and frequency and decreasing the temperature increases the output voltage of this kind of PEH. Changing the dimensions of the housing if its area is constant, does not change the output result and the use of isolators reduces the output voltage. The effect of these parameters is compared to previous studies and the results are presented. تفاصيل المقالة

        The geometrical characteristic of products is one of the crucial quality indicators in the cold roll forming process. In this process, an appropriate flower pattern for rolls is vital to achieve the desired geometry and quality for high-strength steel pipes. In this paper, four different flower patterns, including circular, edge bending, double radius, and reverse bending are designed for the roll forming process of the high-strength steel pipe. Then, the effect of the flower pattern on the curvature distribution of the deformed strip is investigated using finite element analysis. The accuracy of the finite element model is evaluated by performing experimental tests. The results show that forming the strip with the reverse bending flower pattern leads to a more uniform curvature distribution in its cross-section, especially in the edge portion. Thus, this flower pattern design method is recommended for the roll forming process of the high-strength steel pipes. تفاصيل المقالة

        Conical shells play a significant role in different branches of engineering such as aerospace and oil industries. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the fracture behavior of metallic conical shells containing an internal semi-elliptical crack. An accurate three-dimensional finite element method is employed to model the conical shell using ANSYS standard code. Special singular elements are used to consider the square-root singularity at the semi-elliptical crack front. Stress intensity factors of the cracks which placed in different positions of the shell is calculated. To confirm the accuracy of the present finite element model, both stress distribution of the structure and stress intensity factor of the crack in special case are compared with published results. The effect of different geometrical parameters on the stress intensity factor of the cracks are investigated. Results show that the crack aspect ratio has a significant effect on the stress intensity factor of the cracks. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, Forming Limit curves (FLCs) of AA3105 aluminum alloy sheet were obtained at four different temperatures using the Nakazima test. A novel approach based on the Nakazima test was applied to fabricate the experimental setup for determining forming limit diagrams (FLDs) at elevated temperatures. First, the Nakazima-die-set was manufactured, and a thermal system was prepared for increasing sheet and die’s temperature; then AA3105 samples were tested at four different temperatures experimentally. Moreover, the ABAQUS finite element software was employed. Three different criterions including the 2nd order of derivatives for major strain, equivalent plastic strain, and thickness strain were applied to estimate the onset of localized necking. The numerical results were verified by experiment. Both the experimental and finite element method results illustrated that the level of the forming limit diagram for the aluminum sheets improved by increasing its temperature. The forming limit improvement was not equal in every strain paths. تفاصيل المقالة

        Pyroplastic deformation is a distortion of the ceramic shape during the sintering process. It occurs because the flow of the vitreous phase at high temperature and the applied stress due to the weight of the product during sintering process. The aim of this paper deals with describing a numerical-experimental method to evaluate the pyroplastic deformation, to predict the anisotropic shrinkage and heterogeneous densification for ceramic materials during the liquid phase sintering process, as a function of sintering time. For this purpose, three experimental configurations including midpoint deflection, sinter bending and free sintering test were designed; the finite element method are implemented by the CREEP user subroutine code in ABAQUS. The fair accordance between simulation results and experimental data reveals that the shear and bulk viscosity modulus as well as dynamic viscosity used in the simulation are near the real ones. The anisotropic shrinkage factor K_xy has been proposed to investigate the shrinkage anisotropy. It has been shown that the shrinkage along the normal axis of slip casting is about 1.5 times larger than that of casting direction. The inhomogeneity in Von-Misses, pressure, and principal stress intensifies the density non-uniformity in the samples. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present investigation, an artificial neural network (ANN) model is developed to predict the isothermal hot forging behavior of AlCuMgPb aluminum alloy. The inputs of the ANN are deformation temperature, frictional factor, ram velocity and displacement whereas the forging force, barreling parameter and final shape are considered as the output variable. The developed feed-forward back-propagation ANN model is trained with Leven berg–Marquardt learning algorithm. Since the finite element (FE) simulation of the process is a time-consuming procedure, the ANN has been designed and the outputs of the FE simulation of the hot forging are used for training the network and then, the network is employed for prediction of the behavior of the output parameters during the isothermal forging process. Experimental data is compared with the FE predictions to verify the model accuracy. The performance of the ANN model is evaluated using a wide variety of standard statistical indices. Results show that the ANN model can efficiently and accurately predict isothermal hot forging behavior of AlCuMgPb alloy. Finally the extrapolation ability and noise sensitivity of the ANN model are also investigated. It is found that the extrapolation ability is very high in the proximity of the training domain, and the noise tolerance ability very robust. تفاصيل المقالة

The effect of the process parameters on the strain distribution in the round cross section roll forming process has been studied. Finite element and response surface method have been used for process modelling. Then desirability functions approach and overlaid counter plots have been employed for optimization of the process. Three factors included roll diameter, distance between the stations and linear speed of the sheet are considered as input parameters. Sum of longitudinal maximum strain and transverse strain distribution uniformity were taken as response functions. Response function model for each function was obtained using the RSM. Finally, optimization of the process has been done using the desirability function approach and overlaid contour plots .Results show that both of the response surface models have good model adequacy. Optimization by desirability functions approach was presented as points which according to the type of the process and production requirements can only be used to start and preliminary design. But the overlaid contour plots have flexibility in output for manufacturing processes. Output overlaid contour plots provide optimum area that there is wide range of values for choices in different condition. تفاصيل المقالة

        Deformation of the material during cyclic expansion extrusion (CEE) is investigated using upper-bound theorem. The analytical approximation of forming loads agrees very well with the FEM results for different amounts of chamber diameter, friction factor and also for lower die angles. However, the difference between analytical and numerical solution increases at higher die angles which are explained by the formation of dead-metal zones at these angles. The results show that the forming load increases at higher friction coefficients, higher chamber diameters and lower amounts of corner fillet radius, but for the die angle there is a maximum value of laod at about 60o. Forming load enhanced by the increase of the die chamber diameter and friction factor. Increasing the die chamber diameter causes to higher strains and, therefore, higher rate of homogenous work. The load decreased slightly by an increase of die corner radius because of the lower and more homogeneous strain distribution in the material. تفاصيل المقالة

        Aluminum alloys have many applications in transportation industry because of their abundance, ease of production, as well as proper mechanical and physical properties. One of these alloys is obtained by combining aluminum with silicon and magnesium (Al-Mg-Si alloys). Since the plates of this alloy are rolled up, heat transfer and crystallization in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) is an important point in their welding. In this study, we have attempted to investigate welding-induced recrystallization in this alloy using the finite element method. For this purpose, the physics of the problem was defined and simulated using ANSYS software. In the next step, the results of theoretical (simulated) and experimental investigations were compared and the effect of current on the size of weld pool and thermal cycle of different samples was assessed. Then, through microscopic examination of different areas of the welded samples, the size of recrystallized area was measured and compared with the results of mathematical calculations. Finally, the hardness of weld zone and recrystallized area was analyzed. A temperature of 630°C and holding time of about 0.3 seconds is sufficient for recrystallization of this alloy during welding. تفاصيل المقالة

        Parallel tubular channel angular pressing (PTCAP) process is a novel recently developed severe plastic deformation technique for fabrication of ultrafine grained (UFG) metallic tubes. This new process consists of two half cycles and is affected by several parameters such as channel angles, deformation ratio and curvature angles. In this paper, the effects of these parameters on the plastic deformation behavior, imposed strain, strain homogeneity and the process load were investigated using finite element method (FEM). The results indicated that an increase in the channel angle leads to a decrease in the imposed strain at the end of both half cycles of PTCAP process. Investigation on the effects of the curvature angles showed that better strain homogeneity is achieved in lower curvature angles. Also, minimum required process load and the best strain homogeneity could be obtained in the curvature angle equal to zero. Study on the deformation ratio (K) revealed that the best and worse strain homogeneity could be achieved in K values equal to 0.6 and 1 respectively. From the point of view of better strain homogeneity and needing lower process loads, it could be concluded that lower K value (0.6 t0) leads to best strain homogeneity and lowest process load. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, we present nonlinear buckling instability analysis of Polystyrene, Polyvinyl chloride, and Polypropylene nano-composite shell-structures reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) under uni-axial compressive load to obtain a more conservative buckling response as compared with linear analysis. For this end, the Mori-Tanaka method is firstly utilized to estimate the effective elastic modulus of composites having aligned oriented straight CNTs. Then, a novel model based on micro-mechanics and finite element method is developed for buckling analysis of a cylindrical nano-composite shell reinforced by CNTs and various effects of different types of polymer matrices (Polystyrene, Polyvinyl chloride, and Polypropylene), CNTs volume fraction, CNTs orientation angle, aspect ratio of cylinder, and different boundary conditions (simply supported and clamped ends) on critical buckling load of cylindrical nano-composite shells are discussed. The proposed model is based on Mori-Tanaka micro-mechanics which is developed in ABAQUS finite element package. Herein, numerical results show different behavior from shell-type buckling to beam-type buckling in L/R =8 due to change of the cylinder’s aspect ratios. Moreover, the developed finite element code and numerical results are compared and validated with Mori-Tanaka analytical model in available literature and shown a good agreement. تفاصيل المقالة

        Tubular channel angular pressing (TCAP) is a recently invented novel severe plastic deformation technique for producing UFG tubes. Plastic deformation analysis using the finite element method (FEM) was carried out to investigate the effects of trapezoidal channel geometry on strain inhomogeneity index (SII), strain level and required load compared to previously used channel geometries. The results showed that SII is decreased to 0.003 in the case of trapezoidal channel while they are 0.13 and 0.24 in the cases of semicircular and triangular channel types, respectively. It means that excellent strain homogeneity is achieved in TCAP processing using trapezoidal channel geometry. The required load for the trapezoidal channel was 41% lower than that for the triangular channel but it is almost the same for semicircular channel. From the point of view of better strain homogeneity and needing lower process load, TCAP processing using trapezoidal channel is an excellent technique for producing UFG tubes. تفاصيل المقالة

        Using the Frobenius series method (FSM), an analytical solution is developed to obtain mechanical stresses of thick spherical pressure vessels made of functionally graded materials (FGMs). The cylinder pressure vessel is subjected to uniform internal pressure. The modulus of elasticity is graded along the radial direction according to power functions of the radial direction. It is assumed that Poisson’s ratio is constant across the cylinder thickness. Primarily, displacements and stresses is obtained as closed-form solutions. Next, the profiles are plotted for different values of inhomogeneity constant along the radial direction. Finally, the problem was solved, using the finite element method (FEM). The obtained results of finite element method were compared with those of the analytical method. The analytical solutions and the solutions carried out through the FEM show good agreement. The values used in this study are arbitrary chosen to demonstrate the effect of inhomogeneity on displacements, and stresses distributions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Grain refinement improves the mechanical properties and formability of metals and alloys. So far, several different grain refinement methods have been proposed and studied. Severe plastic deformation is one of the most promising and efficient methods. Therefore, in the present study the possibility of imposing a two-step severe plastic deformation (Extrusion and Equal channel angular pressing) on AA7075 alloy using a special designed die is investigated. Using this method, a very coarse grained microstructure with grain size of 94µm is refined to grain size of 7.5µm. Also, microstructural developments during severe deformation with and without preheating are investigated. Plastic strain distribution and temperature variation inside deformed samples are predicted by the use of thermal coupled displacement 3D finite element method. Results of FEM simulations clearly showes that the plastic strain distribution and temperature is non-uniform in sample and this introduces inhomogeneity in the resultant microstructure of sample at different regions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nanocrystalline materials show a higher strain-rate sensitivity in contrast to the conventional coarse-grained materials and a different grain size dependency. To explain these phenomenon, a finite element model is constructed that considers both grain interior and grain boundary deformation of nanocrystalline materials. The model consist of several crystalline cores with different orientations and grain boundary phase. The nonlinear behavior of the nanocrystalline core is implemented by a grain size dependent crystal plasticity. The boundary phase is assumed to have the mechanical properties of quasi-amorphous material. The constitutive equations for both grains interior and boundary phase are implemented into the finite-element software Abaqus. A calibration procedure was used to tune some parameters of the model with the previously published experimental data on the nanocrystalline copper. Then the model is used to predict the material behavior in various strain rates and grain sizes. The stresses obtained from these simulations match well with the experimental data for nanocrystalline copper at different strains and strain rates. Deviation from the Hall-Petch law and inverse Hall-Petch effect are also well illustrated by the model. تفاصيل المقالة

        Production of lightweight metals with a higher strength to weight ratio is always the main goal of researchers. In this article, equal channel multi angular pressing (ECMAP) process as one of the most appealing severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods on production of ultra-fine grained (UFG) materials studied. Two main routes A and C investigated by FEM and compared with each other from different aspects of view. ABAQUS commercial software used to evaluate the maximum strain, maximum required force and strain inhomogeneity index in both routes and obtained results of FEM verified by both theoretical calculations and experimental tests. It is inferred that although equivalent plastic strain (PEEQ) in route A is higher than that in route C, the strain homogeneity as a quality factor for route C is higher. So, route C selected for more investigation and optimization. Grey relational analysis used as the optimization method. Geometrical parameters taken as input variables and both inhomogeneity index and maximum required load taken as objectives. Then, the suggested tests by full factorial method were simulated by FEM. After optimization, it was concluded that the best set up belongs to experiment number 20 which the values of Φ1, ψ1 and ψ2 are 165°, 0° and 15°, respectively. Also, it is inferred that among geometrical parameters, die channel angle (Φ1) is the most effective parameter. تفاصيل المقالة

        Equal channel multi angular pressing (ECMAP) process is the efficient method to enhance the productivity of ultra-fine grained (UFG) materials, by increasing process continuity and as a result decreasing process required time. Comparing repetitive ECAP method, in the same period, the number of passes can be done by ECMAP. In this article, ECMAP of AL strips in two typical annealed and as received conditions studied, and route C was selected as multi pressing route.

        High-pressure torsion (HPT) is a metal processing method in which the sample is subjected to a very high plastic shear deformation. This process can produce exceptional levels of grain refinement, and provides a corresponding improvement in mechanical properties. To investigate the stress and strain distribution due to HPT process finite element simulation were conducted to investigate effective parameters. The simulation results demonstrate that the lowest effective strain obtained in the centers of the disk and the highest at the edges. Also, the mean stress varies linearly from the center of the disk to the edge region. The compressive stresses are higher in the disk centers and lower at the edges. By increasing the friction coefficient and the die angle, mean stress decrease and stress variation along the disc diameters become more homogeneous. Increasing of the pressure load leads to increase the mean stress and its heterogeneity along the disc radius. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the deep drawing process, the optimal design of the initial blank shape has many advantages such as reducing the cost of production and waste and improving the quality of the process and thickness distribution. The deep drawing process is highly nonlinear due to the large deformation, plastic deformation of the material and the contact phenomenon. Therefore, the general solution to such problems is to use iterative methods based on numerical simulation. The present study implements a similar approach and presents a new algorithm to make geometrical corrections to the external boundaries of a blank, as well as its internal boundaries, in several iterations. A computer program was developed to automatically run these iterations to study the features of the proposed algorithm. Next, an example problem was solved, and the results are compared with other studies. The results showed that the proposed algorithm is sufficiently robust against the initial guesses for the blank, which is an advantage of the present algorithm over those from other algorithms. Because in other algorithms presented in the articles, if the appropriate initial guess is not selected, the algorithm will not converge to the answer. The proposed algorithm also has a higher convergence speed in achieving optimal blank. تفاصيل المقالة

        Severe plastic deformation (SPD) has become an efficient route for producing ultrafine-grained and nanostructured high-strength metallic materials. The present study investigates the feasibility of synthesizing rod-shaped nanostructured pure aluminium samples with the newly presented severe plastic deformation (SPD) method called cyclic contraction/expansion extrusion (CCEE). Also, the deformation characteristics of this process were studied using both micromechanical-based finite element simulations and experimental methods. Tensile test results showed a noticeable increase in yield and ultimate tensile strength values to 155 MPa and 191 MPa from the initial values of 56 MPa and 112 MPa, respectively, after the second pass of CCEE processing. The microhardness measurements showed a significant increase in hardness values to 61 Hv from the initial value of 27 Hv at the end of the first and second passes of CCEE. Results showed that the proposed technique is an efficient SPD method capable of imposing severe stains in the order of 20 after six repeated cycles. The constitutive micro-mechanical approach was implemented to predict microstructure evolution during CCEE processing. The UFG cylindrical aluminium samples with a mean grain size of 480 nm at the end of the first pass and 360 nm at the end of the second pass of CCEE were processed from the initial grain size of ~55 μm. The XRD-obtained grain sizes were consistent with the FEM-predicted values. تفاصيل المقالة

        Mechanical properties of alloys have a strong relation with microstructure and determination of their behavior can lead to multiple advantages. To obtain this goal, finite element method )FEM( is one of the best ways. In this study a series of experiments were carried out on the produced Ti-6Al-4V to obtain its mechanical characteristics and to prepare it for photographing in micro dimensions. Next, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), images were taken from some regions of the manufactured Ti-6Al-4V. In the next step, a method was developed to separate alpha-phases from beta-phases with a relatively high accuracy. At the end of this stage, the images were mapped into a matrix involving arrays which show the type of the phases. A code is written which maps the material matrices to the FEM model. The Gurson model is an appropriate model for simulating the damage inside the ductile material. Results of simulations obtained from SEM images show that the simulation data are in good agreement with experimental results and also analysis of simulation clearly shows that the failure always happens in boundaries between two different phases; ductile and brittle, and then growth over them to form the final failure of the material. تفاصيل المقالة

        Gas turbine disks usually operate at very high temperatures and rotate at very high angular velocities under normal working conditions. High temperature in turbine disks causes changes in their properties. High angular velocity creates a large centrifugal force in the disk and high temperature reduces the strength of the material and causes deformation. Complexity of these parameters has turned the determination of stress distribution in gas turbine disks to one of the bottlenecks in the analysis, design and manufacturing of turbine engines. Therefore, using an applicable method for stress analysis is essential in order to better determine stress distribution in turbine disks. In this study, the finite element method (FEA) is used for predicting the behavior of rotating disks under mechanical and thermal stresses. In order to increase the certainty of simulation, gas turbine disk is first simulated and analyzed based on dimensions and loading conditions extracted from previous studies. Then, the results are compared with previous studies in order to determine the accuracy of analysis method applied in ANAQUS software. Afterwards, gas turbine disks are evaluated under both rotational movement and temperature gradient. The results show that the presence of angular velocity and centrifugal force cause expansion to the disk radius. The results show an acceptable correlation between the results of empirical and numerical studies. According to the results, the approach proposed in this study is a suitable method for analysis of the stress, temperature and displacement in turbine disks and other components with similar functions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Today, metal forming is considered one of the essential methods of manufacturing and producing parts. Therefore, the more accurate knowledge of it leads the industrialists to produce higher quality parts. Deep drawing is one of the most important methods in metal forming processes used to produce cup-shaped products. In this paper, numerical simulation of the deep drawing process based on the finite element method is performed using Abaqus software for a cylindrical cup. Then, the results obtained from numerical simulation are compared with the experimental results in the sources, and the validation of the simulation is performed. In the deep drawing process, effective parameters such as circumferential strain distribution, thickness strain distribution, and radial force distribution are extracted from numerical simulations and compared with experimental results in the sources. The effect of friction coefficient, blank holder force, and punch radius on the deep drawing process has also been investigated. Because experimental methods based on trial and error are time-consuming and costly to achieve the shape of the primary blank, researchers use numerical methods to simulate and design metal sheet forming processes such as deep drawing. It is necessary to compare the results with experimental works to validate the simulations performed by numerical methods. تفاصيل المقالة

        Deep drawing is a popular process in sheet metal forming. The goal of shape optimization of the initial blank which is considered in the present work is to find the shape of the blank in a manner in which after a deep drawing process the contour of the edges of the produced part meets a target contour. Such problems are highly nonlinear because the simulation consists of large deformation, plastic deformation, and contact. Therefore, the general approach to solving such problems is using iterative methods which are based on numerical simulation. Such an approach is also followed in the present work and a new algorithm for geometry modification of initial blank in each iteration is proposed. In the proposed algorithm, the normal distance between the final contour and target contour is used as a criterion to modify the initial blank. To evaluate the proposed algorithm a computer program is developed and to automatically execute the iterative process. One numerical example solved and the results are compared with those reported in the literature. One of the benefits of the proposed algorithm is its insensitivity to the initial guess. Therefore, to evaluate the effect of the initial guess on its performance the example was solved using different initial guesses. The results show that the proposed algorithm is robust regarding the initial guess and convergence to the optimum shape will be achieved by starting from an initial guess. تفاصيل المقالة

        Over the last several decades, implants have been used to treat fractures and promote healing. The most important reason for deformation and shortening of the bone during healing due to loading on the nails is a lack of strength of the intramedullary nail. Materials with very fine grain dimensions are considered for such purposes. Ultrafine-grained (UFG) materials have structural elements with very fine grain sizes. Several methods for producing UFG materials have been developed, one of which is the top-down approach, which refines coarse-grained metals via severe plastic deformation (SPD). The SPD technique has several advantages that set it apart from other methods of synthesizing. Two of the SPD methods used in this study were the repetitive corrugation and straightening (RCS) process and the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process on a 316L stainless steel rod. Mechanical tests were performed on the rods produced using these methods. Under loading, simulation results revealed that the bone implanted by the RCS rod has greater structural stiffness than the bone implanted by an ECAPed 316L stainless steel rod. تفاصيل المقالة

        The method of intramedullary nailing, which leads to the alignment of the diaphyseal broken bone, is one of the diaphyseal fractured bone healing novelties. The rods utilized must be strong enough to withstand the forces exerted by the transplanted bone. Today, various researchers are interested in using severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods to improve the mechanical characteristics of metals. One of the SPD procedures used in this study was repetitive corrugation and straightening (RCS) on a 316L stainless steel rod. After conducting mechanical characteristics tests on the rods produced using this approach, ABAQUS software was utilized to simulate the intramedullary nailing finite element method (FEM). The results of the experiments revealed that raising the number of pressing stages to eight significantly increases the hardness of the samples. The simulation findings revealed that the bone sample implanted by the rod manufactured by the aforementioned procedure has a higher structural hardness than the bone implanted by a basic 316L stainless steel rod under various stress conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Connecting parts through welding as permanent connections can play an important role in various industries. Despite the favorable load-bearing capabilities of joints resulting from welding dissimilar parts, they have some limitations that need to be identified and checked to optimize their use. One of the limitations is the behavior of parts under thermal stresses caused by the welding process. Thus, it is important to consider the welding conditions of the dissimilar parts in the contact area of the electrode and the welding seam, as this can significantly affect the mechanical performance of the welds. The research conducted in this study involved using the electric welding method with non-consumable tungsten electrodes under shielding gas (TIG) to connect aluminum and carbon steel parts. Ansys software was utilized to investigate the effect of thermal stress in the welding process for different joints. To ensure accuracy, parts were welded together practically under similar conditions, and the results obtained were compared with the results of the modeled method. First, the behavior of a steel sheet under the butt and Tee Joint and then the role of various factors on welding performance were investigated by modeling the process for a pipe in different conditions. Finally, due to the significant role of T-shaped joints in various industries, heat distribution, behavior, and stress analysis were investigated. تفاصيل المقالة

        Electromagnetic forming is a high energy rate forming process. In this process, an electromagnetic Lorentz body force is used for deformation of products. In this article, Electromagnetic forming process was simulated for assembly of parts as an innovative method. In this research work, the effect of important parameters of process such as discharge energy, radius and width of rectangular groove on the strength of assembled products were studied by using finite element technique and design of experiment. After introducing the governing equations, the output of these equations were applied in simulation as a pressure on work-piece. In this simulation, an axisymmetric model was used in analysis and Johnson-Cook theory was applied due to high strain rate to show the plastic behavior of materials. Finally, the numerical results were compared with the experimental results reported by other researchers and found a good correlation between them. As a result, the bead depth increases with the increase of the discharge energy and more filling groove, increasing strength of joint. In addition, Strength of joint increases, due to create partial shearing of the tube at the groove edge and interference stresses at the tube and mandrel interface. تفاصيل المقالة

        Distortion and deformation of tubes during machining operations are very important. In this study, a tube used in magnetic drum separator under concentrated load (machining load) is considered. Using finite element simulation, deformities and their dependence on parameters such as the thickness of the tube and the place of concentrated force are observed and predicted. To compare and confirm the results, some experimental tests are considered. The results show that there is good agreement between the numerical and experimental data. The results of this study indicate the amount of residual stress in the tube by changing the location of the load, the effect of residual stresses in the tube, indentations at different levels of thickness and location of the load. Results show that the values and location of force affect the stress and residual stress in the thickness of tube. In addition, increasing the thickness of tube decreases the residual stress area in longitudinal and circumferential direction of tube. Also, the maximum residual stress in tube is occurring under the force area and by increasing the thickness of tube, the displacements of area under the force is decreased. تفاصيل المقالة

        Bulk nanomaterial have several applications in automobile, aerospace, medical and manufacturing applications. These are produced by subjecting materials to severe plastic deformation (SPD) and have widely emerged as a technique for grain refinement in Al, Cu, Ti, Mg alloys with improved mechanical properties. Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) is one such SPD technique employed to produce bulk ultra-fine grained (UFG) materials by introducing a large amount of shear strain into the materials without changing the billet shape or dimensions. FE (Finite Element) modeling of SPD processes has become an important tool for designing feasible production processes, because of its unique capability to describe the complex geometry and boundary conditions. In this proposed work, integrated SPD processes namely Extrusion + ECAP (Ex-ECAP) is proposed and the specimen is subjected to these processes in the same die set-up. The 3D finite element modeling of Al6061 was performed using metal forming software FORGE. The dies used in both the processes during the simulation of Al6061 billet include a channel angle of 900 and outer corner angle fixed at 160 with simulation performed for different plunger velocities. The simulation results depict the change in equivalent strain in the entire specimen on account of these processes. The evolution of strain at different considered cross-sections is analyzed. Also, the variation in extrusion force and energy are studied for the considered process parameters. The FE simulations greatly help in designing the dies for various experimental conditions to produce bulk nanomaterial. تفاصيل المقالة

        Light-weight and high strength alloys such as Al-Mg alloys are used in order to reduce the weight of industrial components. However these materials should be formed at elevated temperatures due to their poor formability at room temperature. Hot metal gas forming is one of the high-tech forming processes that is used to solve this problem. Recent investigation on tube hydroforming showed positive effect of oscillation of pressure paths in improving the formability of tubes. In this study, the effects of a sinusoidal pressure path on tube wall thinning of an Al6063 tube in HMGF processis investigated and the results are compared with equal constant pressure by the finite element method.Moreover, the effect of stroke on thickness reduction of the tube is also investigated. The results show that the proposed sinusoidal pressure paths have an obvious improvement of thinning in hot metal gas bulging of tube and some defects such as necking and bursting are prevented by the oscillation of the inner pressure. تفاصيل المقالة

        Metal forming processes, compared with machining ones, reduce production steps and increase manufacturing speed in addition to saving raw material. In this paper, forming process of column of a steering mechanism is investigated by finite element analyses and experimental tests; and optimum die design parameters are found. Forming process parameters including die opening angle, bearing length, clearance between work piece, die and friction coefficient were studied. Some new ideas were also used in manufacturing process of dies with compression tube forming process. Without using an appropriate lubricant, friction coefficient between die, tube, the probability of tube distortion and tube bulging increased significantly. The forming force is also strictly dependent on friction coefficient and it also increases with increasing bearing length of the die. The manufactured sample had good agreement with the original drawing of profile appearance and dimensions. Effects of die and tube clearance on the required force and final part surface quality are also investigated. تفاصيل المقالة

        The hydrostatic extrusion is a new method of extrusion process. The most important advantage of this method is reduction of friction and close tolerance for the coating thickness. In this study, the hydrostatic extrusion simulation of bimetallic wires has performed using of finite element method. In the following the advantages of hydrostatic extrusion compared to the direct extrusion are presented.It can be concluded that by increasing the friction coefficient between the work piece and the die, the extrusion force value also increases. Increasing the cross-section reduction when the die angle kept constant as a result of increase in die length, consequently leads to an increase in the extrusion force.Regarding to the absence of friction in the die and almost uniformly deformation and homogeneous in the hydrostatic extrusion, the product with a uniform coating thickness can be obtained as it is very important for manufacture of very high length bi-metal products. تفاصيل المقالة

        در این مقاله ایجاد نیروهای معلق مغناطیسی و مقاوم رانش در سیستم تعلیق الکترودینامیکی با استفاده از آهنربای دائم مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. سیستم تعلیق الکترودینامیکی نیروی عکس العمل متقابل دو میدان مغناطیسی است که براساس خاصیت دفعی تولید شده و باعث ایجاد تعلیق می‌شود. بخش معلق این سیستم شامل یک آهنربای دائم مکعبی شکل و مسیر راهنمای آن یک ریل آلومینیومی با ضخامت دو میلیمتر است که در مدل تحلیلی آهنربا با مدل ورقه‌ای جریان مدل شده است و جریان القایی ناشی از تغییر میدان در ریل آلومینیومی با لحاظ کردن اثر پوستی محاسبه شده است. جهت بررسی اثر پوستی، ریل آلومینیومی چند لایه با هدایت الکتریکی متفاوت فرض شده است. نیروهای تعلیق و مقاوم رانش در سرعتهای مختلف به کمک مدل تحلیل محاسبه شده‌اند. سپس به کمک روش اجزای محدود دوبعدی سیستم مدل‌سازی شده و تأثیر تغییر سرعت بر نیروهای تعلیق و مقاوم رانش در دو فاصله هوایی مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. نتایج شبیه‌سازی شده توسط مدل تحلیلی با روش اجزای محدود مقایسه شده و مورد تأیید قرار گرفته است تفاصيل المقالة

        در این مقاله به تشخیص عیب ناهم‌راستایی استاتیک در موتورهای القایی قفس سنجابی پرداخته می‌شود. برای مدل‌سازی موتور القایی در حالت سالم و معیوب از روش اجزاء محدود دو بعدی استفاده شده است و اعتبارسنجی روش ارائه شده با مقایسه سیگنال‌های جریان و سرعت شبیه سازی شده در حالت سالم با داده‌های عملی انجام شده است. برای تشخیص عیب در ابتدا از روش تبدیل فوریه سریع سیگنال جریان استفاده می‌شود. اگرچه نتایج حاصل از این روش، وقوع عیب را هشدار می‌دهند اما برای تحلیل لازم است از هارمونیک‌های مرتبه بالا استفاده شود و به‌دلیل دامنه کوچک این هارمونیک‌ها، مقایسه بسیار مشکل خواهد بود. برای رفع این مشکلات پیشنهاد می‌شود از دو سیم‌پیچ آزمایش متقارن در اطراف فاصله هوایی استفاده شود تا هرگونه تغییر در این ناحیه بتواند به خوبی قابل تشخیص باشد. به خاطر استفاده سیم‌پیچ‌ها در حالت مدار باز، این سیم‌پیچ‌ها بر دینامیک موتور تأثیری نمی‌گذارند و از طرفی نتایج نشان می‌دهند که تحلیل ولتاژ القا شده در آن‌ها می‌تواند وقوع عیب، نوع و درصد آن را‌ به‌خوبی نشان دهد. تفاصيل المقالة

        در سازه‌های آسیب دیده در زلزله‌های مختلف‌‌، تنها شواهد اندکی دال بر اینکه نواحی پلاستیک واقعاً تشکیل شده باشند وجود دارد‌‌. اکثر مطالعات انجام شده بر روی ایجاد مفصل پلاستیک در قسمتی از تیر تمرکز داشته‌‌، که این امر در صورت وقوع باعث آسیب غیر قابل جبران برای تیر می‌شود و در صورت عدم وقوع مفصل پلاستیک در تیر سبب انتقال نیرویی بیش از لنگر پلاستیک تیر به اتصال و در نتیجه به ستون شده که این امر یا باعث شکست ترد اتصال می‌شود و یا منجر به آسیب دیدن ستون به ویژه چشمه اتصال خواهد شد. لذا در این تحقیق با هدف کاهش آسیب در تیر و ستون و امکان جایگزینی قطعات آسیب چهار اتصال با هندسه جدید ارائه شده است. در حالت کلی‌‌، اتصالات پیشنهادی با جایگزینی یک مقطع H یاI شکل همراه یا به‌جای ورق‌انتهایی به عنوان استاب ستون کوتاه پیشنهاد می‌گردد. در این مطالعه ابتدا یک نمونه مدل اجزاء محدودی از اتصال ورق انتهایی که ترکیب جوش و پیچ بوده و تحت بار گذاری متناوب قرار گرفته است، انتخاب و پس از صحت سنجی در نرم‌افزار آباکوس مطالعه برروی اتصالات پیشنهادی انجام پذیرفت. نتایج نشان می‌دهد ناحیه‌ی‌ ا‌ستاب، با رفتار غیرخطی، یک مفصل محدود کنترل شده، با شکلپذیری فوق العاده را بوجود می‌آورد. تسلیم به هنگام در استاب سبب رفتار فیوزی آن و عدم آسیب به تیر و ستون می‌شود و تنش و کرنش پلاستیک را به‌طور‌قابل ملاحضه‌ایی در چشمه اتصال ستون کاهش می‌دهد. تفاصيل المقالة

        روش رایج المان محدود روشی قدرتمند در حل مسائل مقدار مرزی است که معادلات فرم قوی دیفرانسیلی را با استفاده از گسسته‌سازی دامنه به معادلات فرم ضعیف تبدیل می کند. این روش اگرچه برای محاسبه ی تغییر مکان (متغیر مکانی) در حل مسائل استاتیکی و دینامیکی به خوبی کاراست اما در محاسبه ی مقادیر تنش دچار مقداری خطا می‌شود. برای رفع این خطا که ناشی از گسسته بودن میدان تنش محاسباتی است و همچنین برای رفع مشکل نیازمندی به شبکه مش از پیش تعریف شده برای گسسته سازی دامنه، روش های بی نیاز از المان (مش) شکل گرفته اند. یکی از این روش ها، روش بی نیاز از المان گالرکین می باشد. توابع شکل ایجادی در روش بی نیاز از المان گالرکین مبتنی بر تقریب کمترین مربعات متحرک می باشند. این توابع شکل دارای خاصیت درون یابی نبوده و خاصیت دلتای کرونیکر را ندارند. اخیرا روشی توسط محققین برای ایجاد خاصیت درون یابی در توابع شکل کمترین مربعات متحرک برای حل مسائلی با گسسته سازی مرز دامنه ارائه گردیده است. تاکنون ارزیابی از عملکرد روش اصلاحی پیش‌نهاد شده در حل مسائل مرتبط با کل دامنه ارائه نگشته است. در این مقاله با استفاده از روش مورد اشاره، روش بی نیاز از المان گالرکین اصلاح گردیده و برای حل مسائل با گسسته سازی کل دامنه به کار گرفته شده است. کاربرد و کارآیی روش اصلاحی مورد استفاده در حل مسائل ‌استاتیکی در این مقاله مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفته است و مقایسه‌ای میان عملکرد روش اولیه و روش اصلاح شده ارائه گردیده است. تفاصيل المقالة

        با گسترش روزافزون تکنولوژی ساخت تجهیزات نظامی با تخریب بالا، نیاز به ساخت سازه‌هایی با مقاومت قابل قبول در برابر انفجار در مراکز حساس و حیاتی بیش از پیش احساس می‌شود. این سازه‌ها به عنوان امکانات شهری در زمان صلح و در زمان جنگ و بلایای طبیعی عاملی برای حفظ جان مردم محسوب ‌می‌شوند. به علت عدم وجود اطلاعات تجربی مناسب و مشکلات روش‌های آزمایشگاهی در زمینه انفجار سازه‌ها، استفاده از روش‌های مدل‌سازی عددی و اجزا محدود می‌تواند کمک شایانی در طراحی سازه‌ها و برآورد بارهای وارد بر آنها داشته باشد. در این تحقیق تأثیر دال بتن‌آرمه فداشونده بر عملکرد سازه‌های بتن‌آرمه قوسی شکل زیرزمینی تحت بار انفجار با جزئیات متداول و همچنین پارامترهای تأثیرگذار مختلف مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. جهت حل از نرم‌افزار اجزا محدود Ls-Dyna استفاده ‌شده و مدلهای بهینه‌سازی شده قوس‌های بتنی تحت میزان مختلف مواد منفجره مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. نتایج تحلیل‌های مختلف صورت گرفته نشان می‌دهد که در صورت قرار دادن دال بتنی فداشونده روی تاج سازه قوسی شکل زیرزمینی تخریبی روی سازه مورد مطالعه صورت نمی‌گیرد و فقط تخریب مربوط به دال بتنی خواهد بود که با افزایش میزان TNT تخریب روی آن بیشتر می‌شود و در اصل وجود این دال باعث پخش قدرت انفجار در سطح بیشتری از خاک می‌گردد که این موجب کاهش انتقال نیرو به سازه مورد مطالعه می‌باشد. بنابراین درجه ایمنی این سازه‌ها به لحاظ عملکرد در برابر بار انفجار به میزان قابل توجهی افزایش خواهد یافت. تفاصيل المقالة

        چکیده سیستم دیوار برشی فولادی یک سیستم باربر جانبی است که به سبب داشتن مزایایی از جمله شکل‌پذیری مناسب، سختی زیاد، میزان مقاومت برشی و جذب انرژی بالا همواره مورد توجه محققین بوده است. از سال 1980 میلادی که تحقیقات پایه برروی دیوار برشی فولادی بدون سخت‌کننده صورت پذیرفت، پیوسته پژوهشگران در صدد بهبود رفتار این سیستم، افزایش کارآیی و بهره‌وری آن بوده‌اند. از جمله اقداماتی که در جهت افزایش کارآیی و بهره‌وری دیوار برشی فولادی صورت پذیرفت، ایجاد بازشو بر روی ورق درونی بود. تحقیقات بر روی دیوار برشی فولادی دارای بازشو در اوایل دهه ی 90 میلادی با مطالعات صبوری قمی و رابرتز بر روی این سیستم آغاز گردید. در سال‌های اخیر یک نمونه دیوار برشی فولادی با بازشوهای منظم دایره ای شکل یا ماتریسی توسط محققان دانشگاه بوفالو آمریکا مطرح شده و مورد آزمایش قرار گرفت. از این نوع بازشو علاوه بر سیستمی جهت عبور تاسیسات در مواردی که ضخامت ورق مورد نیاز طراحی در دسترس نباشد می‌توان استفاده نمود، به گونه‌ای که ورق ضخیم همراه با بازشوهای دایره ای شکل جایگزین ورق نازک بدون بازشو می‌گردد. در این مقاله نیز به جهت مطالعات بیشتر بر روی بازشوهای منظم دایره ای شکل، تاثیر اینگونه بازشو بر روی رفتار سیستم دیوار برشی فولادی مورد ارزیابی قرار می‌گیرد. بدین منظور یک نمونه دیوار برشی فولادی با بازشوهای دایره‌ای طراحی و ساخته شده سپس در مرکز تحقیقات سازه دانشگاه ارومیه تحت بارگذاری چرخه ای قرار گرفت. علاوه بر مطالعات آزمایشگاهی رفتار این نوع سیستم به صورت تحلیل عددی و با استفاده از نرم افزار المان محدود ABAQUS بررسی گردیده است. در نهایت نتیجه‌ی هر دو تحلیل آزمایشگاهی و عددی با روش تئوری آنالیز پلاستیک سازه مقایسه شده است. نتایج بدست آمده حاکی از تطابق مناسب پوش منحنی هیسترزیس در دو تحلیل عددی و آزمایشگاهی بوده همچنین نشان دهنده‌ی محافظه‌کارانه بودن روابط روش آنالیز پلاستیک و یا ضرایب کاهشی اعمال شده بر این روابط به سبب وجود بازشو و کاهش مقطع تیر می‌باشد. تفاصيل المقالة

        در حالت کلی المان‌های بتن‌آرمه تمایل زیادی به تردشکنی دارند و این پدیده در هنگام لرزه به وضوح نمایان می‌گردد. یکی از مزایای محصور کردن بتن افزایش مقاومت بتن و شکل‌پذیری بتن است که اگر بتن به نحوی مناسب محصور شده باشد و اثر نیروهای لرزه‌ای باعث کنده شدن بتن پوششی شود، بتن محصور شده به خوبی مقاومت می‌کند. بهترین شیوه برای این کار می‌توان به خاموت گذاری به صورت مارپیچ اشاره کرد. در این پژوهش به بررسی تاثیر دورپیچ‌ها با توجه به متغییرهای گام دورپیچ‌ها و زاویه‌ی دورپیچ‌ها بر ظرفیت برشی و پیچشی تیرهای بتن مسلح مستطیلی پرداخته شده است. به منظور شبیه‌سازی نمونه‌ها از نرم‌افزار المان محدود ABAQUS استفاده شده است. نتایج نشان داد، زاویه‌ی ترک‌های ایجاد شده در نمونه‌های دارای خاموت‌های بسته، بیشتر از نمونه‌ی متناظر(فاصله‌ی برابر گام‌ها در دورپیچ‌ها و خاموت‌های بسته) با دورپیچ‌هاست و استفاده از خاموت‌ها چه به صورت بسته و چه دورپیچ، ظرفیت برشی و پیچشی تیرهای بتن مسلح را به میزان قابل توجهی افزایش داده‌اند. مشخص گردید، تیرهای بتن مسلح دارای دورپیچ، ظرفیت برشی و پیچشی بیشتری نسبت به تیرهای بتن مسلح دارای خاموت بسته دارند.استفاده از خاموت‌های بسته و دورپیچ‌ها با فاصله‌ی‌ گام‌های 80 میلی‌متر به ترتیب ظرفیت برشی تیر بتن مسلح را 52% و 59% افزایش داده‌اند که اختلاف قابل توجهی است و با افزایش فاصله‌ی گام‌ دورپیچ‌ها، از ظرفیت برشی‌ و پیچشی تیرهای بتن مسلح کاسته می‌شود. با افزایش فاصله‌ی دورپیچ‌ها از 80 میلی‌متر به 150 میلی‌متر، ظرفیت برشی تیر بتن مسلح 30% کاهش یافته است که میزان قابل توجهی است. مطابق با نتایج، زاویه‌ی بهینه‌ی دورپیچ که عملکرد تیرهای بتن مسلح مستطیلی را در بهترین حالت قرار می‌دهد، 80 درجه می‌باشد. در این حالت زاویه‌ی ترک‌های قطری کمتر از سایر حالات بوده و ظرفیت برشی و پیچشی آن به میزان قابل توجهی بیشتر از سایر نمونه‌ها با گام‌های برابر و زاویه‌های متفاوت دورپیچ است. تفاصيل المقالة

        در این تحقیق به منظور ارائه ی یک رابطه تحلیلی جدید جهت ارزیابی ظرفیت باربری پی نواری واقع بر توده خاک دو لایه چسبنده ی اصطکاکی، 12 سری آزمون بار گذاری مدل فیزیکی برای سه تیپ لایه خاک فوقانی با تراکم و ضخامت های مختلف انجام شده است. در ادامه یک سری مطالعات پارامتریکی جهت ارزیابی دقت رابطه پیشنهادی با استفاده از نرم افزار المان محدود PLAXIS 2D انجام گردید. جهت بررسی نتایج مدلسازی های عددی و کنترل صحت این مدلسازی ها، نتایج این تحلیل ها با نتایج آزمایش مدل های فیزیکی متناظر با در نظر گرفتن تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف(ضخامت نسبی، نسبت تراکم و پارامترهای مقاومت برشی لایه های خاک) بر مکانیسم خرابی و ظرفیت باربری خاک مقایسه شدند. با توجه به انطباق مناسب منحنی های بار-جابجایی، الگوی خرابی و متوسط اختلاف ظرفیت باربری در حدود 3/3 درصد بین مدل های فیزیکی و عددی، نشان می دهد مدل های اجزای محدود دارای دقت مناسبی در پیش بینی رفتار واقعی نمونه های آزمایشگاهی هستند و می توان به نتایج حاصل از شبیه سازی عددی اعتماد نمود. بعداز اطمینان ازصحت نتایج آنالیز عددی، مقادیر ظرفیت باربری بدست آمده از هر دو روش عددی و تحلیلی برای 88 حالت مختلف از پی نواری به ابعاد 1 و 2 متر و توده ی خاک با لایه بندی، عمق و پارامترهای مقاومت برشی متفاوت، با هم مقایسه گردید و اختلافی در حدود 7 و 5/12 درصد به ترتیب برای پی به ابعاد 1 و 2 متر مشاهده شد. این نتایج نشان دادند که توافق نسبتا خوبی بین هر سه روش تجربی، عددی و تحلیلی در ارزیابی ظرفیت باربری نهایی وجود دارد و رابطه تحلیلی می تواند با دقت نسبتا خوبی روند تغییرات فشار حدی برحسب ضخامت نسبی لایه ها و ارزیابی ظرفیت باربری نهایی برای حالات مختلفی از پی نواری واقع بر زمین دولایه را پیش بینی بکند. تفاصيل المقالة

        در سالیان اخیر استفاده از مقاطع فولادی پر شده با بتن (CFST) به دلیل مزایای بسیار زیاد از جمله، عملکرد لرزه‌‌‌‌‌‌ای عالی، استحکام بالا، انعطاف‌پذیری بالا و ظرفیت جذب انرژی نسبت به مقاطع بتنی (RC) و فولادی در صنعت ساختمان‌سازی گسترش زیادی پیدا کرده است، این ستون‌ها اغلب بیشتر در اشکال دایره‌ایی اجرا می‌گردد. دلیل اصلی این موضوع این نکته هست، که مقاطع دایره‌ای محصور شدگی بیشتری را نسبت به مقاطع دیگر در بتن هسته ایجاد می‌کند. این مهم سبب گردیده که مقاطع دایره‌ای نسبت به مقاطع دیگر در ستون‌های (CFST) بیشتر مورد استفاده قرار گیرد. اما در بعضی از مواقع استفاده از مقاطع دایره‌ایی غیر ممکن خواهد شد، از جمله این موارد می‌توان رعایت ملاحظات معماری، اجرای اتصالات اقتصادی‌تر و آسان‌تر در مقاطع چهار‌گوش نسبت به مقاطع دایره‌ایی، را نام برد، این دلایل سبب می‌گردد، اشکال خاص از جمله مقاطع مربع و مسطیل و مقاطع با اشکال L و T شکل در بعضی از قسمت‌های ساختمانی مورد استفاده قرار گیرد. با توجه به اهمیت این موضوع در این مقاله سعی گردید که به معرفی و بررسی رفتار مکانیکی ستون‌های کوتاه (CFST) با مقطع هندسی L شکل و بررسی اثر پارامتری ضخامت جدار فولاد، و تنش فشاری بتن، بر روی ظرفیت و رفتار مکانیکی این ستون‌ها پرداخته شود، که در انتها و بعد از انجام تحلیل نمونه‌های مطالعاتی تحت روش اجزای محدود (FEM) مشخص گردید که در ستون‌های (CFST) اثر ضخامت جدار فولادی پارامتر تاثیرگذارتری بر روی ظرفیت و رفتار مکانیکی ستون‌های (CFST) با مقطع هندسی L شکل خواهد بود. تفاصيل المقالة

        نقش اصلی اتصال، انتقال نیروها بین اعضاء سازه ای و حفظ یکپارچگی سازه تحت اثر بارهای وارده می‌باشد. بسیاری از خرابی های سازه ای صرفا بعلت نقص در طراحی و آنالیز اعضاء سازه ای اتفاق نمی افتد بلکه بیشتر بخاطر اهمیت ندادن به رفتار و طراحی اتصالات صورت می گیرد. حتی هنگامی که نیروهای اعضاء سازه‌ای بطور دقیق شناخته شده است، شناخت کاملی از رفتار اتصالات صورت نمی گیرد به همین دلیل در این تحقیق ابتدا یک اتصال K شکل تحت اثر بارگذاری یکنواخت توسط نرم‌افزار آباکوس مدل‌سازی شده و با نتایج آزمایشگاهی تحقیقات گذشته اعتبارسنجی گردیده است. سپس 8 مدل عددی تحلیلی با متغیرهای متفاوت شامل تنش تسلیم فولاد، مقاومت فشاری بتن، زاویه‌ی قرارگیری لوله‌ی فولادی و وجود گل‌میخ توسعه یافته اند تا ویژگی های متفاوت پاسخ ها را پیش بینی کنند. نتایج کلی آن‌ها نشان داد، استفاده از گل‌میخ در لوله‌‌ی اصلی که با بتن پر شده بود، مقدار تنش فون‌میزس مصالح فولادی و تنش فشاری بتن پرکننده را افزایش داد. افزایش 25 و 50 درصدی تنش تسلیم لوله‌های فولادی فرعی، مقداربار نهایی اتصال را به ترتیب 9/22 درصد و 6/74 درصد و شکل‌پذیری آن را 9/24 درصد و 1/52 درصد افزایش داده است. کاهش زاویه‌ی مابین لوله‌های فرعی و لوله‌ی اصلی دراتصال K شکل لوله فولادی نشان داد که با کاهش زاویه‌ی مابین لوله‌های فرعی و لوله‌ی اصلی، مقداربار نهایی و سختی اولیه‌ کاهش می‌یابد ولی شکل‌پذیری سازه افزایش می‌یابد. در کل میتوان نتیجه گرفت که افزایش تنش تسلیم لوله‌های فرعی بیشترین تاثیر را در بهبود رفتار اتصال K شکل داشت. تفاصيل المقالة

        در سازه‌های آسیب دیده در زلزله‌های مختلف‌‌، تنها شواهد اندکی دال بر اینکه نواحی پلاستیک واقعاً تشکیل شده باشند وجود دارد‌‌. اکثر مطالعات انجام شده بر روی ایجاد مفصل پلاستیک در قسمتی از تیر تمرکز داشته‌‌، که این امر در صورت وقوع باعث آسیب غیر قابل جبران برای تیر می‌شود و در صورت عدم وقوع مفصل پلاستیک در تیر سبب انتقال نیرویی بیش از لنگر پلاستیک تیر به اتصال و در نتیجه به ستون شده که این امر یا باعث شکست ترد اتصال می‌شود و یا منجر به آسیب دیدن ستون به ویژه چشمه اتصال خواهد شد. لذا در این تحقیق با هدف کاهش آسیب در تیر و ستون و امکان جایگزینی قطعات آسیب چهار اتصال با هندسه جدید ارائه شده است. در حالت کلی‌‌، اتصالات پیشنهادی با جایگزینی یک مقطع H یاI شکل همراه یا به جای ورق‌انتهایی به عنوان استاب ستون کوتاه پیشنهاد می‌گردد. در این مطالعه ابتدا یک نمونه مدل اجزاء محدودی از اتصال ورق انتهایی که ترکیب جوش و پیچ بوده و تحت بار گذاری متناوب قرار گرفته است، انتخاب و پس از صحت سنجی در نرم‌افزار آباکوس مطالعه برروی اتصالات پیشنهادی انجام پذیرفت. نتایج نشان می‌دهد ناحیه‌ی‌ ا‌ستاب، با رفتار غیرخطی، یک مفصل محدود کنترل شده، با شکل پذیری فوق العاده را بوجود می‌آورد. تسلیم به هنگام در استاب سبب رفتار فیوزی آن و عدم آسیب به تیر و ستون می‌شود و تنش و کرنش پلاستیک را به‌طور‌قابل ملاحظه ای در چشمه اتصال ستون کاهش می‌دهد. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents a novel salient pole synchronous generator i.e. permanentmagnet- assisted salient-pole synchronous generator (PMa-SGs). Due to saturation of conventional synchronous generators (SGs), permanent-magnet-assisted salientpole synchronous generators (PMa-SGs) are presented. PMa-SGs are a new type of salient-pole synchronous machines with extra permanent magnets (PMs) between the adjacent pole shoes. Placing PMs between adjacent pole shoes leads to a reduction in flux saturation plus an increase in armature flux linkage. In other words, the generator can operate at higher capacity. In this paper, a comparative study is carried out between conventional SGs and PMa-SGs based on finite element analysis (FEA). This is done via simulation of a PMa-SG compared to a conventional SG. Simulation Results show superiority of PMa-SGs over SGs. In fact, in PMa-SG maximum flux density in stator core is increased and pole bodies are not saturated. Besides, PMa-SG has higher flux linkage compared to conventional SG. Therefore, higher voltage could be produced in the generator. In other words, the output performance of the PMa-SG is considerably better than that of a conventional SG. تفاصيل المقالة

        Investigating of foundations actions on soil is one of the most important topics in geotechnical engineering. This behavior indicates the stability conditions of the foundation under structure loading on the foundation and soil responses. In this regard, the foundation’s behavior is affected by soil behavior and failure is likely. In recent years, the use of soil reinforced stabilization is considered as the most successful procedure to increase bearing capacity and reduce foundation’s settlements. In this paper by using finite element numerical modeling, attempted to evaluate the behavior of the geogrid-reinforced soil which conducted by Plaxis2D software. For this purpose, with the series of modeling, the soil- foundation behavior for both unarmed and reinforced conditions has been evaluated and the of geogrids performance was estimated. Based on the results of modeling, it has been determined that the geogrids has a good ability to improve and stabilize soil conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        The presented study provide the numerical view and finite element (FEM) based modeling for earth-dam sealing curtains wall in earth-dam by using grout injection procedure. In this regard the plaxis software was used to estimate the variations and provide the simulation which is implemented in geometrical modeling, boundary conditions, assign materials properties, behavioral model, mechanical modeling and seepage analysis. Modeling conduced for two case groups related to before and after curtains wall design. According to the results of seepage analysis, it has been determined that when the sealing curtain is not applied, deformations due to stress, strain and pressure of the perforated water cause changes in the dam area and its expansion in sediments. On the other hand, the expansion of strain in the core range reflects the phenomenon of plastic behavior of the core and downstream, which is the result of in-situ stress and water pore-pressure in it. تفاصيل المقالة

        Application of soil nailing in stabilization of excavation operations in urban area’s constructions is most flexible and capable techniques for earth retention under soil mass instabilities. In general, the implementation of the soil nailing method is step-by-step, and this issue itself causes various and step-by-step changes in the excavation area. Therefore, by studying these stepwise deformations, it can be obtained the development of soil’s failure mass step-by-step. In this regard, presented article tried to investigate the stepwise deformations’ analysis in soil nailing operation in excavated soils using finite element numerical method and Plaxis2D software. The modeling was performed during four drilling stages and the changes in the slope stability as well as the deformations’ expansion in slope mass (sand and clay) were investigated. Based on the simulation results, it has been determined that with increasing depth, the degree of confidence in the slope (safety factor) for 2 different arrangements decreases step-by-step and the plastic area increases towards the bottom of the pit. But the nailing wall shows a good ability to curb instability. تفاصيل المقالة

        Soil improvement can be expressed as one of the most important applied achievements of geotechnical engineering to improve the resistance conditions and properties of soil mechanics in a wide range of soil materials. The purpose of the improvements is to achieve proper resistance of soils (especially loose soils) to failure, which can cause serious damage and costs to construction projects. The micro-pile is one of most effective stabilization methods, which is used in the materials’ limitations and it is more economical than other techniques. The present study is based on investigation on the micro-piles’ performance to the improvement of sandy soil’s slope under dynamic earthquake loading. Methodologically, the finite element numerical method and Plaxis3D software have been used to implement the loading conditions and evaluate the deformations that have occurred in loose body of slope. The modeling process can be divided into two modeling groups, including slope with and without reinforced by micro-piles which is indicate the improvement process based on deformation reduction by stabilization technique. According to the results of the numerical simulation, it has been found that the use of micro-piles can be very effective on slope stability of the excavated trench in loose soil. تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the geosynthetics that is used in different parts of the world under surface foundations is geotextile, and relatively valid texts are available on how to use it and increase its load. But other geosynthetics have been geogrids, which have increased the load-bearing capacity of surface foundations in soft clay and silty loam soils. In this paper, our u/b variations are between 1 and 17.5 with step 205 and in three different b/B modes are 5, 10 and 15. Also, the b/B changes from 0.1 to 2 with a step of 0.25 and in three different u/B modes are equal to 0.25, 0.75 and 1. The purpose of this study is to compare the soil load in different cases of geogrid with non-geogrid. This comparison is also performed by the BCR dimensionless number, which is the result of dividing the armed soil load into the soil load without geogrid. The results of this paper showed that the presence of geogrid increases soil fertility, but from a certain extent onwards, this amount of fertility does not show much difference. In this ratio, the geogrid dimensions are equal to 17.5 times the dimensions of the foundation. The presence of geogrids increased the soil fertility, but from a distance onwards, this amount of fertility does not show much difference. This ratio is equal to 1.75 times the dimensions of the foundation. تفاصيل المقالة

        A beam that has a width greater than the width of the column connected to it is called a wide beam. Due to the reduction in the height of the beams in this type of system, many advantages are created, including reducing the costs of molding and construction, increasing the execution speed, reducing the height of the floor and of course increasing the number of floors in high-rise buildings, as well as including Other advantages of these beams from the architectural point of view are the hiding of the beams in the roof of the structure. In concrete structure design, ductility is one of the important parameters. The ductile behavior of the structure has a significant effect in reducing the design forces caused by the earthquake due to its energy absorption and loss. The role of reinforcement in the ductility of concrete is very important. In this article, a concrete beam with six different types of longitudinal rebar arrangement has been selected for study and four-point loading has been applied to the models. All models have been analyzed in ABAQUS finite element software. The results indicate that; The pattern of placing the rebar crosswise and diagonally has less hardness, ductility and resistance than other models. The highest amount of energy absorption was related to the model with six bars in a trapezoidal arrangement. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents an overview of model updating and particularly its application for updating of frame model. In this article a mathematical model of the frame was produced with finite element method. The frame was subjected to hammer modal testing. Then the results of the modal testing were compared with those predicted with the model. This comparison revealed discrepancies between these two sets of results. It is a commonly known fact that incorrect values of parameters in a model, among other things, do cause these discrepancies. In order to improve the correlation between the measured and the predicted results and hence improve the reliability of the model, the model was subjected to finite element model updating. In this updating process, incorrect values of parameters in a model are adjusted. Also it is important in updating that the FE model be simple and in the same time can give good results.The objective of this article is to use direct and sensitivity-base methods for frame and also compare these methods. تفاصيل المقالة

        Modelling of crack propagation by finite element method under mixed mode conditions is of prime importance in fracture mechanics. This paper describes an application of finite element method to the analysis of mixed mode crack growth in linear elastic fracture mechanics. Crack growth process is simulated by an incremental crack-extension analysis based on the maximum principal stress criterion, which is expressed in terms of the stress intensity factor. In this paper, a procedure to correct the direction of crack propagation in the analysis of finite element is peresented to ensure that a unique final crack path is achieved for different analysis of a problem by using different increments of crack. For each increment of crack extension, finite element method is applied to perform a single region stress analysis of the cracked structure. Results of this incremental crack extension analysis are presented for several geometries. تفاصيل المقالة

        The hybrid composites have exceptional properties such as strength to weight and hardness ratios. These characteristics make the application of these materials in the aerospace industry. In such industries, any defects in the form of holes or cracks will increase the tension in these materials and fail, which are very dangerous. In composite materials, there are various fittings, such as a bolt and a rivet, which is the focus of stress concentration in the joints because the fibers are damaged. In this research in hybrid composite materials, a high elastic modulus fiber (HM) and a low elastic modulus fiber (LM) are used. It is also assumed that the length of the sheet is infinite. The force on the lamina is tensile force which applies on matrix and fibers while the fibers in the layers are one directed. In this paper the effects of different parameters such as number of total fibers , number of broken fibers , the ratio of LM to HM fiber extensional stiffness , Hole dimension ratio are considered. By using finite element method (FEM) stress concentration around the hole in a hybrid composite lamina is calculated and compared by the results obtained by analytical method [1] via written codes for finite element method.In this research unlike reference the matrix can withstand tensile stress. The results of the validation showed that compared to the reference data are close to each other, indicating the correctness of the code written for the analysis. تفاصيل المقالة

        Glaucoma is a major risk factor for blindness and causes loss of visual field due to retinal ganglion cell (RGC) destruction. Glaucoma is associated with high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and ocular blood flow. Vascular factors play an important role in the development of glaucoma. A number of retinal vascular parameters are measured for use in software from retinal imaging. The biomechanical model of the disease reveals that mechanical stress induced by IOP impairs the function of retinal ganglion cells. Due to the difficulty of direct retinal biomechanical measurement in determining ocular biomechanics, the current study uses modeling with significant limitations to make it easier to examine.The purpose of this article is to stimulate the human retina in patients with glaucoma. In this research, the applied stresses on the inner surfaces of the retina and its effects on the inner parts are studied. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is considered to be higher than 20 mm Hg. With this model, we can study stresses and strains in different and desired conditions. The way of applying load is compressive load on the retina تفاصيل المقالة

        Ferroresonance is a non-linear resonance which occurs between the capacitors of the cables, lines, and breakers and nonlinear inductance of the reactors and transformers when their core is saturated. Due to ferroresonance, it has been proved that large pulse currents pass through the transformer winding which seems to cause severe electromagnetic forces on the transformer windings. This research work is aimed at characterizing the transformer behavior at ferroresonance mode and calculation of the electromagnetic forces applied on the windings. To this end, a 2D FEM model of a 25KVA distribution transformer is developed. The accuracy of the FEM model is validated by comparing the FEM results and those obtained from the analytical methods. The results of this study are of great importance in the electrical and mechanical design of transformers and their windings. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . تفاصيل المقالة

        Shaded pole induction motors, despite the simplicity and low cost, are difficult to analyze particularly in the equivalent circuit methods, due to the asymmetric structure, saturation, harmonics, inaccurate estimation of leakage inductances and skew. Hence, 3D numerical methods could be very useful in the design and optimization stage. This paper presents the 3D transient finite element analysis (3DTFEM) of a 1/60HP, 2-pole prototyped, restructured shaded pole induction motor that has been designed and optimized using genetic algorithm technique. Experimental test has been carried out by a hysteresis brake dynamometer to determine the motor performance. Detailed comparisons among 2D, and 3D finite-element analysis, and experimental results are presented, which confirm the potentials of the new restructured shaded pole motor to achieve lower cost and higher efficiency objectives than the previous designs. تفاصيل المقالة

The variable angle and electrical conductivity of water droplets are changed. Increased electric field due to the presence of water droplets on the insulator surface causes the insulator breakdown probability. In this paper, for predicting the on the polymeric insulator leakage currents a neural network model was proposed, which could arrange for references to prevent contamination flashover. Through the study of a LC data obtained via the FEM simulation, the characteristics of the LC combined with BP neural network. Simulation results illustrate that enhancement in leakage current and electric field values are created when the values of the electrical conductivity and drop contact angle is increased. تفاصيل المقالة

        Permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) are novel generators which can be used in high-performance wind farms. High efficiency and flexibility in producing electricity from variable rotation make them good candidate for wind power applications. Furthermore, because these kinds of generators have no excitation winding, there is no copper loss on rotor; hence, they can operate at high power factor. Besides, performance characteristics of such generators could be further improved by design optimization. This paper presents design optimization of PMSGs used in small wind turbines using novel and efficient optimization algorithm i.e. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm. Then, a well-known optimization algorithm i.e. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to show the validity and efficiency of the before-mentioned algorithm. For this purpose, the necessary equations are provided. Objective function of this study is to reduce the total volume of motor. Case study of this study is a 5 kW, 220 V, 50 Hz, 100 rpm generator. Finally, results obtained by optimization are verified with Maxwell software which is based on finite element method (FEM). Comparison shows that the results of optimization approach are in good agreement with that of FEM ones. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, a new method for joining aluminum tubes in subsurface structures using steel converting and aluminum welding are presented and reviewed. But near the weld area is under high thermal cycle and will cause residual stresses in heat affected zone. Therefore for assessment of proposed connection from the perspective of residual stress by using the finite element method welding of tubes has been modeled in three dimensions. Thermal history is determined from thermal analysis and then the residual stresses due to welding are calculated. Because of the sensitivity of subject, the simulation process and properties are validated. The mechanical and thermal properties have been considered as a function of temperature. According to current, voltage and speed electrode, heat flux is applied by Goldak's heat source model.

        Nowadays, light weight and high strength metals are being used in various industries such as automotive and aerospace. Using aluminum-magnesium alloys is an efficient way to reduce the weight of a specific part. These alloys have poor formability in room temperature thus they should be formed at elevated temperature. Warm hydroforming and hot metal gas forming are conventional methods to form aforementioned alloys. It is proven that using hammering pressure is an efficient way in order to optimize hydroforming process that it improves formability and thickness distribution. In this paper, the effect of hammering pressure on hot free bulging of an Al6063 tube is investigated numerically and the results are compared with the results of constant pressure path. Results show that reduction of thickness is greater for peak constant pressure while using hammering pressure, due to gradual thickness reduction, could improve formability and thickness distribution. Results also show that axial feeding, increase the effect of formability caused by hammering pressure. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the current research work, the problem of fracture mechanics in a plate with a central hole under tensile loading is studied. The stress intensity factors are calculated for a finite plate containing two symmetrical hole-edge cracks. The problem is solved by two different methods, namely the finite element method and the FRANC software analysis. At first the finite element method is used and by writing a program in MATLAB software the stress intensity factors at the crack tips are calculated. The same problem is then reanalyzed with the Franc software and the results are compared. The effects of various factors such as the hole diameter, crack length and crack angle have been investigated on stress intensity factors. The results show that for small crack lengths, the effect of cracks length is more than that of the hole diameter on variation of normalized stress intensity factors, while it is the opposite for large crack lengths, the effect of hole diameter is more than that of the cracks length on variation of normalized stress intensity factors. تفاصيل المقالة

        This paper presents finite element analysis (FEA) of a coated and uncoated cylinder heads of a diesel engine to examine the distribution of temperature and stress. A thermal barrier coating system was applied on the combustion chamber of the cylinder heads, consists of two-layer systems: a ceramic top coat (TC), made of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), ZrO2-8%Y2O3 and also a metallic bond coat (BC), made of Ni-Cr-Al-Y. The coating system in this research comprises 300 μm zirconium oxide TC and 150 μm BC. The three-dimensional model of the cylinder heads was simulated in abaqus software and a two-layer viscoplasticity model was utilized to investigate the elastic, plastic and viscous behavior of the cylinder heads. The elastic and plastic properties of BC and TC layers were considered and the effect of thermal barrier coatings on distribution of temperature and stress was investigated. The aim of this study is to compare the distribution of temperature and stress in the coated and uncoated cylinder heads under thermo-mechanical loads. The results of FEA showed that the thermal barrier coating system reduces the temperature about 53°C because of its lower thermal conductivity. As a result, the cylinder heads tolerates lower temperature and fatigue life will increase. The results of thermo-mechanical analysis indicated that the stress in the coated cylinder heads decreased approximately 24 MPa for the sake of depletion of temperature gradient which can lead to higher fatigue lifetime. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, the effect of interference fit on fatigue life of holed plate of mechanical joints was investigated experimentally. Fatigue tests were carried out on the holed specimens of Al-alloy 7075-T6 alloy. The interference fit process consists of force fitting a fastener into the hole with a negative clearance (diameter of the fastener is larger than of the hole) that produces beneficial tangential pre-stress at the edge of the hole. Stress and strain analysis was implemented in order to estimate the fatigue life due to interference fit process. 3D finite element simulations have been performed to obtain stress and strain histories and distributions around the hole due to interference fit and subsequent cyclic longitudinal loading using ANSYS package. The results obtained from the finite element analysis of the interference fit were employed to predict the fatigue life. The fatigue life was divided into two phases of crack initiation life and fatigue crack growth life. Fatigue initiation life was estimated using Fatemi–Socie multiaxial fatigue criterion, and the fatigue crack growth life was predicted using AFGROW computer code. The results show that there is a good agreement between the numerically predicted total fatigue life and experimental fatigue test results تفاصيل المقالة

The results showed that three main parameters of Laser beam movement speed, the pressure of axillary gas and Laser power can affect surface roughness and depth of the area affected by the heat. The value for each of these main parameters should be optimized based on other parameters and in a predetermined range in order to reach optimal conditions and edge quality and to use the interaction of these parameters to determine the final optimal conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        Loading conditions and complex geometry have led the exhaust manifolds heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. Thermal fatigue failure of the engine components easily happens due to excessive temperature gradient and thermal stress. Modern exhaust systems must withstand severe cyclic mechanical and thermal loads throughout the whole life cycle. This study focuses on the Thermo-mechanical Fatigue (TMF) analysis for exhaust manifolds. The three-dimensional model of the exhaust manifolds was simulated in abaqus software and a chaboche model was utilized to investigate the elastic and plastic behavior of the exhaust manifolds. The numerical results showed that the temperature and thermal stresses have the most critical values at the confluence region of the exhaust manifolds. This area was under the cyclic tensile and compressive stress and then is under low cycle fatigue. After several cycles the fatigue cracks will appear in this region.The lifetime of this part can be determined through finite element analysis instead of experimental tests. تفاصيل المقالة

        The hybrid composites have exceptional properties such as strength to weight and hardness ratios. These characteristics make the application of these materials in the aerospace industry. In composite materials, there are various fittings, such as a bolt and a rivet, which is the focus of stress concentration in the joints because the fibers are damaged. In this research in hybrid composite materials, a high elastic modulus fiber (HM) and a low elastic modulus fiber (LM) are used. It is also assumed that the length of the sheet is infinite. The force on the lamina is tensile force which applies on matrix and fibers while the fibers in the layers are one directed. In this paper the effects of different parameters such as ,number of broken fibers and the ratio of (LM) to (HM) fiber extensional stiffness.By using finite element method (FEM) modeling and investigation geometrical and crack modeling, stress concentration factor (SCF) around a elliptical hole is calculated and compared with the results obtained from reference.The results of the validation showed that compared to the reference data are close to each other, indicating the correctness of the code written for the analysis. تفاصيل المقالة

        The exhaust manifolds are subjected to higher loads than before, due to the increasing power output, fuel consumption and exhaust gas emission. Thus, simulation and analysis of fatigue cracks is essential. The effect of residual stress on the thermal stress and low cycle fatigue (LCF) life of exhaust manifolds using strain life methods was investigated. For this purpose, Solidworks software was used to model the exhaust manifolds. Then the thermo-mechanical analysis was carried out to determine the temperature and stress distribution in ANSYS software. Finally, the fatigue life prediction that considers residual stress effect was done. The simulated results proved that the thermal stresses and number of cycles to failure have the most critical values at the confluence region of the exhaust manifolds. The LCF results showed that the number of failure cycles for coated exhaust manifold is about 89% higher than the results obtained from the uncoated exhaust manifolds. Evaluating the residual stress, the TBC improves the number of failure cycles approximately 52% in comparison the uncoated exhaust manifold. The results of FEA proved a very good agreement between numerical simulation results and LCF analysis results, performed in references. تفاصيل المقالة

        An elastic-perfectly plastic middle crack tension aluminum 2024-T3 alloy was used under plane stress, plane strain and 3D analysis to determine stabilized crack-opening stresses for different R-ratios and stress levels. The stabilized crack-opening stresses of a 3D analysis locate between those values of plane stress and plane strain conditions. Using the above strategy, one can determine crack-opening stresses for any desired thickness value using interpolating scheme. Two and three dimensional programs were developed based on small strain elasticity theory incorporating linear strain isoparametric elements. The plasticity part of the analysis uses initial stress approach. The crack was extended one element size as the applied load reached the maximum value of each load cycle. Crack opening and closure stresses of nodes on the crack surface plane after some cyclic crack extensions are demonstrated. Based on the obtained results, for the three-dimensional finite-element analysis, the calculated stabilized crack opening stresses always locate between those of plane stress and plane strain conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present paper, applicability of the modified fixed grid finite element method in solution of three dimensional elasticity problems of functionally graded materials is investigated. In the non-boundary-fitted meshes, the elements are not conforming to the domain boundaries and the boundary nodes which are used in the traditional finite element method for the application of boundary conditions no longer exist. Therefore, special techniques are needed for computation of the stiffness matrix of boundary intersecting elements and application of boundary conditions.The stiffness matrix of boundary intersecting elements are calculated via integration of strain energy over the internal parts of these elements. Essential boundary conditions are applied using penalty function method. To examine the effectiveness of the proposed method, some numerical examples are solved and results are compared with those obtained using the standard finite element method. تفاصيل المقالة

In this paper, the effect of the inclined U-notch geometry, i.e. the notch depth, the notch angle, the notch root radius, and the position of the notch with respect to supports, on the mode ratio (KII/KI) have been studied. Three-point bending and plane strain condition have been considered in this study. Finite element results using ANSYS have shown that the mode ratio increases by increasing the notch root radius. Also, it has been found that the mode ratio decreases by increasing the distance of the notch from the supports, and by increasing the notch angle. However, it is seen that the notch depth has complicated effect on the mode ratio. The variation of the mode ratio with respect to the notch depth has a relative maximum and a relative minimum. تفاصيل المقالة

        Many researchers content themselves with the 2D simulation of welding process instead of the 3D simulation, because of the time and the cost factors of the latter. In this research, the number of elements and nodes are reduced by an initiative plan (defining an equivalent model) for the simulation of welding. The welding process has been simulated by an uncoupled thermal-mechanical finite element model in three steps. Thermal history was determined from thermal analysis, and then the distribution of the metallurgical phase on the fusion and heat affected zones were calculated by a certain code. Afterward, the stress distribution was computed from mechanical analysis, where the material property was defined element by element according to the second step. One of the most important objectives of this simulation is to study the residual stresses of welding. Comparisons between the thermal analysis results and the metallographic and laboratory results of this research show acceptable accuracy of the proposed method. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, the effects of notch shape on the fatigue strength of 2024-T3 aluminum alloy notched specimens have been studied using experimental and multiaxial fatigue analysis. For this purpose, four set of specimens with different notch shape were prepared and then fatigue tests were carried out at various cyclic longitudinal load levels. Load controlled fatigue tests of mentioned specimens have been conducted on a 250kN servo-hydraulic Amsler H250 fatigue testing machine with the frequency of 10Hz. A nonlinear finite element ANSYS code was used to obtain stress and strain distribution in the specimens due to the longitudinal applied loads for all kinds of specimens. Estimation fatigue lives of the specimens were carried out with several different multiaxial fatigue criteria by means of local stress and strain distribution obtained from finite element analysis, i.e. KBM, FS, Crossland, VF and WY, by means of local stress and strain values obtained from finite element simulations. Results obtained from the multiaxial analysis revealed that among the applied criteria, the Crossland’s criterion has the best accuracy for all types of the specimens. تفاصيل المقالة

        Reshaping process is a widely used method for producing tubes with non-circular cross sections. Owing to the friction between pipe and rolls, initial round pipe moves forward and consequently, it gradually formed into square or rectangular one. In practice, geometric profile of the rolls will be changed after a while. These changes would be detrimental the production of faultless products. Therefore, in this paper the reshaping process is studied considering wear phenomena on the rolls. This study is a co-operation with a related industry at which square tubes are produced using reshaping process. In order to investigate the production line, considering industrial datasheets, the process is modeled by means of a commercial FEM package, ABAQUS\Explicit. The reshaping process is simulated as a 3D model and subsequently the sustainable regions to wear are investigated. The influences of significant parameters such as material and thickness of strip, as well as friction coefficient on the worn area, are studied. At the end, the FEM reults are comprised with the experiments reults and a good consistency between them is seen. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, hydroforming process of bent tubes in T-shaped die is studied for pulsating and linear pressure paths by the finite element method. Forming Limit Diagrams (FLDs) and thickness distribution curves are used to investigate the effect of pulsating pressure on hydroforming process. In addition, the obtained numerical results are compared with experimental results of hydroforming of straight tubes with T-shape protrusions. Itis shown that for tubes with similar bend radius and diameter of bent tube, the formability increases by linear pressure which means pulsating pressure is not so effective. But in the bent tubes whith bend radius larger than tube diameter, pulsating pressure improves formability in hydroforming process. Also, it is found that in hydroforming the pulsating pressure can not increase formability in any bent tube case. In some cases the linear pressure path is more effective for formability. تفاصيل المقالة

        In geometric inverse problems, it is assumed that some parts of domain boundaries are not accessible and geometric shape and dimensions of these parts cannot be measured directly. The aim of inverse geometry problems is to approximate the unknown boundary shape by conducting some experimental measurements on accessible surfaces. In the present paper, the artificial neural network is used to solve these kinds of problems in conduction heat transfer in 2D objects. In order to train the neural network, some direct problems are solved by using the finite element method. In order to evaluate the applicability of the proposed method, different cases with different number of measuring points and different error levels are examined. The results show that the ANN can effectively be used in solving inverse geometry problems in heat conduction. تفاصيل المقالة

        Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) demonstrate unusually high stiffness, strength and resilience, and are therefore an ideal reinforcing material for nanocomposites. However, much work has to be done before the potentials of CNT-based composites can be fully realized. Evaluating the effective material properties of such nanoscale materials is a very difficult tasks. Simulations using molecular dynamics and continuum mechanics models can play significant roles in this development. Currently, the continuum approach seems to be the only feasible approach for such large scale analysis. In this paper, effective mechanical properties of CNT-based composites are evaluated using a square representative volume element (RVE) based on the continuum mechanics and Finite Element Method (FEM). Formulas are derived based on the elasticity theory to extract the effective material constants from solutions for the square RVEs under two load cases. Next, CNT aspect ratio effects on the nanocomposite mechanical properties are investigated. Results indicate that increasing CNT aspect ratio results in an increase in nanocomposite longitudinal modulus and a decrease in nanocomposite transverse modulus. Also, increasing the CNT aspect ratio resulted in a decrease in nanocomposite Poisson’s ratio in the x-y plane and an increase in nanocomposite Poisson’s ratio in the x-z plane. تفاصيل المقالة

        Mechanical behavior of two-layer metal laminate structures under low-speed impact loading was investigated experimentally and numerically. The experimental results were just used for validation of numerical results. Then numerical modeling was used to study the behavior of metal laminates in details. The mechanical behavior of the metal laminate structures under impact loading was found to be dependent on the material substance of the layers. The metal layers were made of four common materials used in the industry. Results showed that the maximum amount of contact force and minimum amount of contact duration for the metal laminate structures with similar metal layers were obtained when the layers were made of steel. Whereas, the maximum amount of displacement and dissipated energy were achieved for the structure with lead layers. For the structures in which the first metal layer was Al-6061T6, the maximum contact force obtained when the second metal layer was made of steel; and the maximum displacement occurred when the second metal layer was made of lead. It was found that the maximum mean amount of contact force belonged to the structures with first metal layer of steel and the maximum mean amount of displacement belonged to the structures with the first metal layer of lead. The finite element analysis results were in good agreement with the experimental results and also with the other researcher’s results. تفاصيل المقالة

        Application of impact energy absorption systems in different industries is of special significance. Thin-walled tubes, due to their lightness, high energy absorption capacity, long crushing length and the high ratio of energy absorption to weight, have found ever-increasing application as one of the most effective energy absorption systems. In this research, through carrying out experimental tests and finite element simulation, the crushing mechanism of hollow & solid (filled with polyurethane foam), sandwiched, thin-walled structures under the influence of axial, quasi-static loading has been studied. The tested cylindrical samples are made using extrusion method. These samples are compressed between two rigid plates under quasi-static loading conditions, and then the collapse mechanism, the crushing force fluctuations and absorbed energy are determined. A numerical model is presented based on the finite element analysis to simulate the collapse process, considering the non-linear responses of material behavior, contact surface and large deformation effects. Simulation of tested specimen has been executed by ABAQUS software in 3- dimensional models through explicit method. Comparison of numerical and experimental results showed that the present model provided an appropriate procedure to determine the collapse mechanism, crushing load and the amount of energy absorption. The model is used to evaluate the thickness effects of the tube, material quality, imperfection and density of the foam on the mean crush load, energy absorption capacity, and collapse mechanism of cylindrical shells. Research results showed that the existence of foam increases the amount of energy absorbtion in the structures. Increase of energy absorbtion and also increase of average crushing force, in foams with higher density is more evident. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, the wear of work roll in hot plate rolling is introduced and the parameters affecting wear mechanisms in hot strip mill are investigated. In addition, different wear mechanisms in hot rolling and the differences between these mechanisms in different stands are explained. Using the finite element method and the rolling equations, a work roll wear model is proposed. Wear is modeled using the resultant pressure distribution along the roll barrel. To obtain the tentative coefficient, summation of wear in each pass schedule is obtained and calibrated via actual wear of samples tested in the Mobarakeh Steel Company. Finally, the theoretical wear values are compared with those of the experiment. The predicted wear profiles are found to be in good agreement with those of the experimental measured values. تفاصيل المقالة

        Modeling of crack propagation by a finite element method under mixed mode conditions is of prime importance in the fracture mechanics. This article describes an application of finite element method to the analysis of mixed mode crack growth in linear elastic fracture mechanics. Crack - growth process is simulated by an incremental crack-extension analysis based on the maximum principal stress criterion which is expressed in terms of the stress intensity factor. In this paper a procedure is employed to correct direction of crack propagation to ensure that a unique final crack path is achieved for different analysis of a problem by using different increments of crack. For each increment of crack extension, finite element method is applied to perform a single - region stress analysis of the cracked structure. Results of this incremental crack – extension analysis are presented for several geometries. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present paper, nonlinear radial and hoop thermoelastic stresses analysis of a disk made of FGMs material is investigated. According to this purpose, finite element method is used. In the present method, second-order one-dimensional element (with three node points) is proposed. The geometrical and stress boundary conditions are defined in the state of non-existence of external pressure and then zero radial stress in the outer layer of the disk, and zero displacement in the center of the disk. Also the temperature distribution is assumed as linear. The material properties changes including temperature-dependency are modeled. Finally, a numerical example is proposed to show the radial displacements, radial and hoop thermoelastic stresses versus radius of the disk for different power (N) from Power-law and different angular velocities. The results show that by increasing both two parameters, N and angular velocity of the disk, the amounts of displacement and stress are increased. At last, temperature-dependency and temperature-independency of material properties is investigated. تفاصيل المقالة

        Because of their wide application in industries requiring high pressure and temperature, manufacturing square and rectangular pipes have attracted more attention than ever before.There are various methods such as extrusion, tensile and stress for manufacturing square pipes. Another method on which studies have focused in recent years is the re-forming of round pipes in order to turn them into square or rectangular ones. The methods suggested in these researches are all applicable for the manufacture of square pipes without the possibility of manufacturing rectangular pipes. The method introduced in this paper consists of filling the pipe with bismuth and rolling it in three successive stages. In this research, first, the intended process is simulated in Abaqus software, and then a real sample is manufactured by an experimental test. The manufactured sample is checked with regard to its dimensions and is compared with the results obtained from the simulation. The results of the study show that the method of filling the pipe with bismuth and moving it through three rollers is an appropriate method for the manufacture of thin-walled pipes with rectangular cross-section. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, optimization process of axisymmetric extrusion dies is proposed. Plastic zone is analyzed using finite element method in the Eulerian system with flow formulation. The die profiles are defined by Bezier curves with six control points. Two effective functions are considered in this research; standard deviation of the strain rate and the rate of energy consumption during extrusion process. A coupled numerical approach of finite element analysis in Eulerian system and the non-gradient Nelder-Mead method is utilized to determine optimum die profiles. Results show that optimized die has higher uniformity in strain rate distribution and less strain values with respect to the non-optimum conical die. In the case of minimizing energy consumption rate, results show that for the die with constant and variable lengths and low friction, the die profile tends to the stream line. In die with variable length and high friction, friction has more effective role in optimization and the die length tends towards lower lengths during optimization. تفاصيل المقالة

        Die corner filling is very important in tube hydroforming process. Definition of the internal pressure path is a key factor in improving the corner filling. However, the factors that cause improvement of corner filling are still unclear. In this paper, effect of bilinear pressure path on corner filling in hydroforming of tube in box-shape die is studied using both finite element simulation and experiment. For this pressure path, pressure increases to an initial pressure and then it increases to a final pressure (calibration pressure) linearly. It is shown that, an initial pressure lower than yield pressure of the tube is caused a small wrinkle which is eliminated into the corner of die and thus the corner filling is improved, whereas for other pressure paths with higher initial pressures a round bulging occurred in former stages of deformation, and thus the corner filling of die is deteriorated. تفاصيل المقالة

        The purpose of this research is to analyze the forging of bevel gears based on conventional forging method with material number 1.7131 with finite element method by means of SUPER FORGE software and to compare it with experimental cold orbital forging results.After doing simulation of conventional forging and obtaining press tonnage due to orbital forging method with DEFORM software, orbital forging dies are produced. Since bevel gears production based on conventional forging has three pre-form steps, so the forging process should be applied on the basis of hot forge. But in orbital forging process, bevel gear is produced in only one step which is cold forge. Finally, a comparison is done between microstructure of bevel gear which is produced by orbital forging and a bevel gear that is constructed through machining method and dies. Results obtained showed that the method of pieces production just before applying the heat treatment process have a high effectiveness on the microstructure. In orbital forging the tonnage of the levels are lower than conventional forging method and the capability of filling the mold’s cavity of raw materials in orbital forging is more than conventional forging method.

        Loading conditions and complex geometry have led the cylinder heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. One of the most important durability problems in diesel engines is due to the cracks valves bridge area. The purpose of this study is a thermo-mechanical analysis of cylinder heads of diesel engines using a two-layer viscoplasticity model. The results of the thermo-mechanical analysis indicate that the maximum temperature and stress exist in the valves bridge. The results of the finite element analysis correspond with the experimental tests, carried out in references, and illustrate the cylinder heads cracked in this region. The results of the thermo-mechanical analysis show that when the engine is running the stress in the region is compressive caused by the thermal loading and combustion pressure. When the engine shuts off the compressive stress turns into the tensile stress because of assembly loads. The valves bridge is under the cyclic tensile and compressive stress and then is under low-cycle fatigue. After several cycles the fatigue cracks will appear in this region. The lifetime of this part can be determined through finite element analysis instead of experimental tests. Viscous strain is more than the plastic strain which is not negligible تفاصيل المقالة

        مقاله حاضر یک روش دومرحله‌ای قدرتمند برای تشخیص خسارت پل‌های بزرگ دهانه با مقاطع متغیر ارائه می‌نماید. پل‌ها یکی از زیرساخت‌های اساسی در حوزه حمل‌ونقل شهری و برون شهری بوده که تشخیص خسارت به موقع درطول بهره‌برداری آن حائز اهمیت می‌باشد. خسارت دراین دسته از سازه‌ها سبب اختلال درخدمت‌رسانی درزمان بروزبلایای طبیعی‌خواهد شد. روش ارائه شده بر مبنای ترکیب المان محدود طیفی و شاخص خسارت انرژی کرنشی مودال و همچنین ترکیب الگوریتم ژنتیک و رگرسیون بردار پشتیبان برای تشخیص وتخمین میزان شدت‌خسارت می‌باشد. یکی ‌از روش‌های کارآمد درحوزه انتشار امواج روش المان‌ محدود طیفی ‌بوده که از قابلیت مدلسازی با انعطاف‌پذیری بالا و تشخیص خسارات ریز می‌باشد. روش‌های مبتنی بر ارتعاش بطور گسترده برای تشخیص خسارت سازه‌ها استفاده می‌گردد درحالیکه شاخص خسارت انرژی کرنشی مودال از حساسیت بالاتری در تشخیص خسارت در میان دیگر روش‌های مبتنی برارتعاش برخوردار است. مدل مورد تحقیق، پل‌کروچایلد درغرب کانادا می‌باشد که دارای ویژگی‌های خاصی از نظرهندسی و هم از مشخصات المان‌های سازه‌ای می‌باشد. در این تحقیق شاخص خسارت انرژی کرنشی مودال به علت تغییر مقطع در طول شاه‌تیر‌ها اصلاح گردیده است. همچنین از رگرسیون بردار پشتیبان به عنوان یک تکنیک قدرتمند در تخمین میزان شدت خسارت استفاده شده است. جهت افزایش دقت و بهبود روش تخمین میزان شدت خسارات از الگوریتم ژنتیک برای بهینه‌سازی پارامترهای مؤثر رگرسیون بردار پشتیبان استفاده می‌گردد. روش ترکیبی الگوریتم ژنتیک و رگرسیون بردار پشتیبان توانسته است به نحو مطلوبی شدت خسارات را تخمین بزند. تفاصيل المقالة
