Finite Element Analysis of Buckling of Corrugated Fiberboard

This paper investigates the relationship between mechanical behaviors and shape of corrugated fiberboard by means of buckling analysis, which is done by FEM (Finite Element Method). Firstly, after analyzing the structure of corrugated fiberboard a single-wall corrugated fiberboard model was built. The buckling load was measured in the ideal condition by linear buckling analysis (eigenvalue buck...

Implementation of Transfer Matrix Analysis of Multi-section Rotors Using Ansys Parametric Design Language

Critical speed analysis of rotor systems is a difficult process due to the fact that there exists no direct formula to determine the natural frequency of a multi-section rotor. Finite Element packages provide a suitable platform for such an analysis but demand considerable experience on part of the user to perform modeling, meshing, solving and post-processing. The primary objective of this pap...

Aeroelastic Response of Bird-Damaged Fan Blades Using a Coupled CFD/CSD Framework

The aeroelastic response of a bird-damaged fan stage at the inlet of a high-bypass ratio turbofan engine is examined using a combined CFD/CSD model. ANSYS CFX is used for the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) calculations combined with the ANSYS Multifield (MFX) solver that couples ANSYS CFX with ANSYS Mechanical APDL to perform aeroelastic response calculations. The damaged fan sector consists...

A three-dimensional numerical simulation of cell behavior in a flow chamber based on fluid-solid interaction.

The mechanical behavior of blood cells in the vessels has a close relationship with the physical characteristics of the blood and the cells. In this paper, a numerical simulation method was proposed to understand a single-blood cell's behavior in the vessels based on fluid-solid interaction method, which was conducted under adaptive time step and fixed time step, respectively. The main programm...
