To simulate the front collision test of the car, the LS-DYNA software is adopted to calculate the deformation of the car and the acceleration time history curves during the crashing process;the anti-impact capability of the car is evaluated from this simulation. The results demonstrate that the improvement of local structure can promote the crashworthiness of the car, but the further improvement needs a major change of the car structure.展开更多

We first study the harmonic response of the feeder and discovers the weak links which is an angle steel junction of side plate, feed inlet and the junction panel between the no-feed side plate and the bottom plate. Then, we carry out structural optimization. A streamlined method for optimum design of a vibration feeder is presented.展开更多

This study analyses the stress induced on an HDD pipeline system using the ANSYS Version 18, mechanical APDL finite element (FE) software. The pipeline used as the case study was a gas transmission pipeline installed in south-west Nigeria. A macro-file for ANSYS Version 18, mechanical APDL used to model the pipeline was developed. The results showed that the maximum and minimum stresses induced on the HDD pipeline were at the top and bottom of the pipe, respectively;while the stresses on the sides were uniform (≈888 kg/cm2) all through the pipeline, irrespective of element number. The maximum stress occurred at the curvature point with the highest entry angle (10°), resulting in a maximum deflection at this point. The model stress validation performed by comparing results with theoretical solutions, both with respect to radius of curvature and internal pressure, showed percentage difference (errors) less than 10%. The cross sectional area validation showed a percentage difference of 0.059%.展开更多

The behavior includes the moment-curvature and ovalization-curvature relationships. In addition, the calculated ovalizations at two different sections, middle and right cross-sections, are also included. Experimental data for 6061-T6 aluminum alloy tubes subjected to cyclic bending with or without external pressure were compared with the ANSYS analysis. It has been shown that the analysis of the elastoplatic moment-curvature relationship and the symmetrical, ratcheting and increasing ovalization-curvature relationship is in good agreement with the experimental data.展开更多
