The aluminum bending chambers for the Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is designed to meet the requirement of ultra high vacuum condition for the electron beam of 3 ~ 3.3 GeV and 400 mA. The crotch absorbers are located far from the source to reduce the synchrotron radiation power density thus the design of the cooling is simple. A program of finite element analysis is applied to simulate the thermal...

The influence of yield strength on the in-plane stability and design structural steel square rectangular hollow section (SHS RHS) beam-columns under compression plus uniform bending is investigated in this study. Ten buckling tests were carried out hot-finished S690 SHS 100×100×4 (in mm) specimens combined uniaxial bending. Finite element (FE) models RHS established, validated employed to perfo...

This study measured the bending stiffness of the spine when it is subjected to posteroanterior mobilization force. The lumbar spine was modeled as an initially curved beam column supported over the rib cage and the pelvis. Posteroanterior mobilization was assumed to be three-point bending of the beam. The mobilization force was measured by the mounting of a force plate onto the manipulation cou...

Two dipole doglegs are widely used to translate the beam axis horizontally or vertically. Quadrupoles are placed between the two consecutive dipoles to match first order dispersion and provide betatron focusing. Similarly a four dipole chicane is usually employed to form a bypass region, where the beam axis is transversely shifted first, then translated back to the original axis. In order to ge...

In the present study an evaluation of the potential for bend-twist coupling effects in wind turbine blades is addressed. A method for evaluation of the coupling magnitude based on the results of finite element modeling and full-field displacement measurements obtained by experiments is developed and tested on small-scale coupled composite beams. In the proposed method the coupling coefficient f...

In this paper, the effects of three types porosity on bending behavior functionally graded porous (FGP) beams are studied. The finite element procedure is established and based simple Timoshenko beam theory. results achieved in paper presented compared with other references to verify feasibility implementing formula writing Matlab code. On hand, can help researchers have an overview beams.

The third generation of synchrotron radiation sources, such as the Advanced Photon Source (APS), will provide users with a high brilliance x-ray beam with high power and power densities. In many cases, the first optical component to intercept the x-ray beam is a silicon-crystal monochromator. Due to extreme heat loading, the photon throughput and brilliance will be severely degraded if the mono...

The structural analysis of an infinite unsymmetric laminated composite Timoshenko beam over Pasternak viscoelastic foundation under moving load is studied. The beam is subjected to a travelling concentrated load. Closed form steady state solutions, based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) are developed. In this analysis, the effect of bend-twist coupling is also evaluated. Selec...

A new type of rotating anticathode X-ray generator, where an electron beam of up to 60 keV irradiates the inner surface of a U-shaped Cu anticathode, has achieved a beam brilliance of 130 kW mm(-2) (at 2.3 kW). A higher-flux electron beam is expected from simulation by optimizing the geometry of a combined-function-type magnet instead of the fringing field of the bending magnet. In order to min...

In the present paper, the different techniques used for the determination of changes of surface stress of solid electrodes, as well as the kind and quality of information that can be achieved using these methods are discussed. The most important methods are briefly reviewed and advantages/drawbacks highlighted. Special attention is paid to issues related to the use of the “bending beam” (“bendi...
