First, a finite element model is established and the static and dynamic analysis are completed as constraints and loads applied on the finite element model. It is found that both spindle box and gantry are the worst components of assembly in performance. Secondly, the spindle box and gantry are chosen as objects of optimal design separately, aiming to improve their performance. The optimal plans are accomplished on the basis of the minimum volume for the spindle box and the maximum inherent frequency for the gantry subject to the constrains. Finally, the machine tool improved is analyzed statically and dynamically based on the optimal results of the spindle box and gantry. The results show that optimal design with the finite element method increases static and dynamical performances of the XH2408 gantry style numerical control milling machining center and the technique is effective and practical in engineering applications.展开更多

In recent years, wheeled-scaled vehicles have gained lots of attention as a feasible testing platform, nonetheless up to the authors’ knowledge there has been no research regarding the use of scaled tires and their effect on the overall vehicle performance characteristics. This paper presents a novel scaled electric combat vehicle tire model and validation technique. The pro-line lockdown tire size 3.00 × 7.35 is modeled using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) technique and several materials including layered membrane, beam elements, and Mooney-Rivlin for rubber. The tire-rim assembly is then described, and the rigid body analysis is presented. The tire is then validated using an in-house custom-made static tire testing machine. The tire test rig is made specifically to test the pro-line tire model and is designed and manufactured in the laboratory. The tire is validated using vertical stiffness and footprint tests in the static domain at different operating conditions including several vertical loads. Then the tire is used to perform rolling resistance and steering analysis including the rolling resistance coefficient and the cornering stiffness. The analysis is performed at different operating conditions including longitudinal speeds of 5, 10, and 15 km/h. This tire model will be further used to determine the tractive and braking performance of the tire. Furthermore, the tire test rig will also be modified to perform cornering stiffness tests.展开更多
