چکیده
Power plant sites consist of numerous built up structures, each of which must be designed for positive margins of safety. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a common numerical method used for determining and improving the strength and dynamic performance of such structures. With an increasing need to find optimal power plant structural designs, the most efficient FEA workflows are critical. This case study discusses methods to expedite the FEA process, namely: rapid construction of Finite Element meshes from geometry and leveraging FEA technology to quickly connect hundreds of structural members.

Application of Msc Nastran Uds in Modeling and Analysis of Hybrid Aluminum Composites Reinforced Conductor Core
[Abstract] MSC NASTRAN User Defined Services (UDS) and PATRAN were applied to perform load-displacement analysis of ACCC, a new type of power cable with hybrid composites reinforced core. PATRAN was used to model the geometry of the hybrid composites core, and MSC NASTRAN was implemented to analyze the load-displacement behavior of the structure. MSC NASTRAN UDS subroutine UMAT was used to prov...
متن کاملDynamic Simulation of A Large Deployable Space Structure with Pinned Joints
Plays of joints strongly influence the dynamics of the large deployable space structures. In this paper, dynamic simulation of space structures with pinned joints is discussed. The study can be simply divided into two parts: the flexible effect of structure is simulated by MSC/NASTRAN, and the global motion of rigid body by DADS. The details of how to select the deformation modes in MSC/NASTRAN...

This paper presents the application of finite element method (FEM) to analyze the tube temperature distribution in a water tube boiler. Two-dimensional (2-D) finite element models are developed where the axi-symmetric triangular elements for the cross section area along the water tube are applied in computer software namely MSC Patran-Nastran. The analysis of the temperature distribution for ev...
متن کاملA Vulnerability Map of a Commercial Aircraft
A method of developing a vulnerability map of a commercial aircraft is presented using MSC/DYTRAN and MSC/NASTRAN. The intent of the map is to establish the vulnerability of every point in the cargo hold where a bomb can explode. One might interpret each point in the cargo bay as having four dimensions. Three are spatial coordinates and the fourth is the maximum size of the bomb the structure c...
