Thermomechanical Couplings in Aircraft Tire Rolling/Sliding Modeling

Understanding Parameters Influencing Tire Modeling

The purpose of this document is to describe important tire characteristics and their effect on vehicle performance. Characteristics considered are those that the Formula SAE judges have deemed important for discussion on tires at competition and include coefficient of friction, slip angle, slip ratio, camber angle, cornering stiffness, camber stiffness, self-aligning torque, normal load sensiti...

Thermomechanical Damage Modeling of F114 Carbon Steel

Abstract—The numerical simulation based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) is widely used in academic institutes and in the industry. It is a useful tool to predict many phenomena present in the classical manufacturing forming processes such as fracture. But, the results of such numerical model depend strongly on the parameters of the constitutive behavior model. The influences of thermal and m...

Thermomechanical Modeling of FSW: A Review

Friction stir welding is gaining significance in typical joining applications day by day. Modeling and simulation of FSW has been a great challenge due to the complexity of the process. We are initiating an effort to review various modeling and simulation techniques mentioned in literature and to find the future scope and possibilities of new techniques.

Thermomechanical modeling of regressing heterogeneous solid propellants

A numerical framework based on the generalized finite element method (GFEM) is developed to capture the coupled effects of thermomechanical deformations and thermal gradients on the regression rate of a heterogeneous solid propellant. The thermomechanical formulation is based on a multiplicative split of the deformation gradient and regression of the heterogeneous solid propellant is simulated ...
