Finite Element Method Analysis of Symmetrical Coupled Microstrip Lines

Finite-Element Method Coupled With Method of Lines for the Analysis of Planar or Quasi-Planar Transmission Lines

A full-wave analysis incorporating the finite-element method (FEM) and the method of lines (MoL) is presented in this paper to investigate a planar or quasi-planar transmission-line structure containing complex geometric/material features. For a transmission-line structure being considered, the regions containing complex media are modeled by the FEM while those consisting of simple media with s...

Finite Element Analysis of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors Subjected to Symmetrical Voltage Sags

This paper studies the effects of symmetrical voltage sags on the operational characteristics of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) by Finite Element Method (FEM). Voltage sags may cause high torque pulsations which can damage the shaft or equipment connected to the motor. By recognizing the critical voltage sags, sags that produce hazardous torque variations could be prevented. Simula...

Finite Element Analysis of Coupled Thermoelasticity

Most thermal stress analyses assume that the determination of the temperature field is uncoupled from that of the stress and displacement fields, while assuming that the stress and displacement fields depend on the temperature field. This semi-coupled approach to thermoelasticity is not entirely consistent. In this paper the governing equations for the fully coupled theory of thermoelasticity a...

Dynamic Response of the Coupled Vehicle-Floating Slab Track System using Finite Element Method

In present study, a mathematical model of the vehicle–floating slab track (FST) interaction is established to investigate the coupled behaviour of vehicle–track system. The FST is modelled as the double Euler -Bernoulli beam including the rail and slab. The railway vehicle is simplified as a multi-rigid-body model. The wheel–rail interface is treated using a nonlinear Hertzian contact model, co...
