Stress Analysis of Helical Coil Spring

Open-Coil Retraction Spring

Sliding mechanic has become a popular method for space closure with developments in preadjusted edgewise appliance. Furthermore, various space closing auxiliaries have been developed and evaluated extensively for their clinical efficiency. Their effectiveness enhanced with optimum force magnitude and low-load deflection rate (LDR)/force decay. With the advent of NiTi springs in orthodontics, LD...

Design and Analysis of Two Wheeler Shock Absorber Coil Spring

Spring coil retraction in coil occlusion of persistent ductus arteriosus.

AIMS To present the short and intermediate term results of coil occlusion of persistent ductus arteriosus and the results of radiographic measurements of spring coils implanted to treat patent ducts. PATIENTS 22 children underwent coil occlusion. Their ages ranged from 2 years 9 months to 12 years 10 months (mean (SD) age, 6.5 (3.6) years). The duct diameter ranged from 1.0 to 3.5 mm at the n...

Unusually Stable Helical Coil Allotrope of Phosphorus.

We have identified an unusually stable helical coil allotrope of phosphorus. Our ab initio density functional theory calculations indicate that the uncoiled, isolated straight one-dimensional chain is equally stable as a monolayer of black phosphorus dubbed phosphorene. The coiling tendency and the attraction between adjacent coil segments add an extra stabilization energy of ∼12 meV/atom to th...

Stress Analysis of a Compressor Vane-Spring

A simple analytical model is developed for the design of a particular compressor vane-spring in this paper. The model permits the calculation of the stresses due to both static and fatigue loads, and also checks for possible material failure. In addition, a :finite element analysis, using a commercially available finite element method (FEM) computer software, was carried out to determine the sp...
