ABSTRACT: This paper describes analysis of deep beams subjected to two point loading with three different L/D ratios (1.5, 1.6, 1.71) using Non-linear Finite element method (ANSYS 9.0 software) in order to investigate the stress and strain distribution pattern at mid-section of the beam. In ANSYS 9.0 software, SOLID 65 and LINK 8 element represent concrete and reinforcing steel bars. Non-linear...

In this paper, a new modeling approach for Dielectrophoresis (DEP) based particle manipulation is presented. The proposed method fulfills missing links in finite element modeling between the multiphysic simulation and the biological behavior. This technique is amongst the first steps to develop a more complex platform covering several types of manipulations such as magnetophoresis and optics. T...

A kind of parametric finite element analysis system for the L type gantry crane’s gate frame is developed by making use of the secondary development on the platform of ANSYS, MATLAB through VC++ programming. The interface technology of VC++, ANSYS, and MATLAB is employed as well as the encapsulation on APDL. To input parameter in the VC++ and to calculate the quality of the L type gantry crane ...

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...

Electromagnetic levitated and guided system is commonly used in the field of people transport, tool machines frictionless bearing and conveyor system. In the case of low speed people transport vehicles, the electromagnetic levitation offers the advantage of a very salient motion and of a reduced maintenance of the rail.In this work FEM based analysis and design of different structure of rail (g...

A Finite element analysis has been done using ANSYS, to study the static strength of an offshore tubular T-joint. The strength of T-tubular joints with circular cross section tube chord with circular cross section tube brace is investigated. To determine the joint strength of these T-joint subjected to tension, compression, in -plane bending and out-of-plane bending loading cases have been carr...

It is possible to model smart structures with piezoelectric materials using the product ANSYS/Multiphysics. In this study, the integration of control actions into the ANSYS solution is realized. First, the procedure is tested on the active vibration control problem with a two-degrees of freedom system. The analytical results obtained by the Laplace transform method and by ANSYS are compared.
