Cases of death caused by cardiovascular disease are commonly coronary heart disease. The most well-known way to treat it is installing a stent. Several studies related the development stents have been done. Continues in materials used, one which biodegradable so that stent will dissolve body over time. In addition, when installed, should be able adjust its shape blood vessel and minimum tension...

This paper is based on small-scale laboratory tests (1:10) of a rigid inclusion-improved soil under normal gravity. A low area improvement ratio (2.4%) monotonic and cyclic loading was used. 3D numerical calculations are performed to model these tests. The proposed modeling by the finite element method (FEM) using ABAQUS software. representative elementary volume suggested for reducing calculat...

The paper proposed the practical metal cutting process using FEM to simulate the traditional cutting process, the simulation and the analysis of the results are based on the support of DEFORM3D finite element software, and the characteristic between Galerkin Algorithm and FEM analysis is also analyzed. Then the paper processed the modeling procedure for FEM using Lagrange and Euler algorithm, t...

In this article, the efforts for integrating alternative FEM codes into a complex simulation application from the area of engineering optimisation are described. The application area, its participating software components, and their interactions are presented. The integration of two different FEM codes is demonstrated based on a dedicated FEM data conversion component. Performance results are s...

The most important purpose of cold rolling processes, in addition to obtaining appropriate mechanical features, is to achieve very low and more precise thicknesses’, the issue that is not possible in hot rolling processes. Today, most cold rolling lines designed continuously and usually consist of 4 to 6 fourroller rolling rack. Finished surface of obtained sheets of cold rolling is Harder and ...

A finite element (FE) model of the human foot and ankle was developed from 3D reconstruction of 2 mm coronal MR images from the right foot of a normal male subject using the segmentation software, Mimics. Solid models of 28 foot bones and encapsulated soft tissue structures models established in Solidworks software were imported into ABAQUS for creating the tetrahedral FE meshes. The plantar fa...

Strain-based design (SBD) plays an important role in pipeline and assessment of pipelines subjected to geo-hazards. Under such hazards, a pipe can be substantial plastic strains, leading tensile failure at locations girth weld flaws. For SBD, the finite element method (FEM) reliable tool calculate strain capacity (TSC) for better pipelines. This study aims investigate ductile fracture propertie...

In this paper the eccentric forward extrusion of sections has been simulated and analyzed using FEM Abaqus-explicit. The results have been compared to those obtained from upper bound theorem and experimental works. Close agreements was observed between the FEM and experimental work and as compared with the upper bound data more realistic and better predictions were made by the authors’ method. ...

Graphene sheets are combined of Honeycombs lattice carbon-carbon bonds which have high natural frequencies, high strength, and high conductivity. Due to important applications of the graphene sheets particularly at higher frequencies, the study of their dynamic behavior is important in this frequency range. From Molecular Dynamics (MD) point of view as the dimensions of graphene sheet incline, ...
