Fracture of femur bones in car accident is common. In the present work, the fracture of femur bone was modeled as a failure under three-point bending. The CT scan data was converted into 3D solid modeling using Mimics software. The finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out using ANSYS software. The FEA results were in good agreement with the experiment results.

purpose: since explosive blasts continue to cause casualties in both civil and military environments, there is a need for an understanding of the mechanisms of blast trauma at the human organ level, plus a more detailed predictive methodology. the primary goal of this research was to develop a finite element model capable of predicting primary blast injury to the lung so as to assist in the dev...

ABSTRACT: Several reinforced concrete deep beams with different L/D ratios (1.5, 1.6, 1.71) were cast and tested in order to investigate the strain distribution pattern at mid-section of the beam. 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 ANSYS 9.0 so...

This paper presents the design analysis of saddle support of a horizontal pressure vessel. Since saddle have the vital role to support the pressure vessel and to maintain its stability, it should be designed in such a way that it can afford the vessel load and internal pressure of the vessel due to liquid contained in the vessel. A model of horizontal pressure vessel and saddle support is creat...

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 ...

A double-axis flexure hinges combined with elliptical and parabolic curve is presented in this paper. The design equations for its compliance computation have been deduced by application of Castigliano’s displacement theorem after the anlysis of the stucture,which were analyzed by the use of the software MATLAB, and comfirm the validity of the model with finite element analysis software ANSYS.
