Smart flapping wing using Macro-Fiber Composite actuators
In the present study, we have developed a smart flapping wing with a MFC (macro-fiber composites) actuator. To mimic the flying mechanisms of nature’s flyers such as birds or insects, the aerodynamic characteristics related to the birds and ornithopters are investigated. To measure the aerodynamic forces of flapping devices, a test stand consisting of two loadcells is manufactured, and the dyna...
متن کاملFolding of Thin-Walled Composite Structures with a Soft Matrix
The paper presents detailed micromechanical finite element simulations of composite materials with soft materials undergoing large macroscopic bending deformation. The simulations allow the study of fibre microbuckling under bending, including the kinematics of the fibres, as well as the strains in the matrix. These simulations lead to a simple analytical model that allows a quite accurate esti...
متن کاملThin-Walled Structures
Experimentally determined natural frequencies and modes shapes are presented for an elastically point-supported isotropic plate with attached masses under impulsive loading. These results are compared to frequencies and to modes shapes determined from the Rayleigh–Ritz method and a finite element analysis using COMSOL. Accelerometers mounted at three locations on the plate, provide input for ME...
متن کاملThin-Walled Structures
This paper presents a procedure to determine an element-length dependent strain and stress relation until fracture that is suitable for implementation in finite element models. This material relation is obtained experimentally with an optical measuring system. The strain until fracture is calculated from the measured surface displacements. The stress is derived from the measured force and the c...
متن کاملAnalysis of Thin-Walled Structures Using Torsional-Bending Elements
In this paper a new element for analysis of thin-walled structures is presented, and the effects of secondary shear stresses on longitudinal displacements are examined. Since the Interpolation Functions are based on non-uniform torsional differential equations, the analysis of stiffness matrix is facilitated. Therefore, its ability to produce accurate results with the least number of elements i...
