Engineers use the breadth and depth of leading simulation software to predict how products will behave in multi-domain operating environments. Product behavior nearly always involves different types of physical phenomena, to one degree or another. Temperature differences can influence mechanical stress, for example, and air flow around a structure may impact acoustics or change structural loadi...

This paper focuses on the dynamic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs. Therefore, the theoretical modal analysis was performed using two different types of boundary conditions. Modal analysis method is the most important dynamic analyses. The analysis would be modal case when there is no external force on the structure. By using this method in this paper, the effects of freely and simply...

abstract most structural failures are because of break in consisting materials. these breaks are initiated with crack extension, which is a serious threat to the behavior of structure, so different methods have been developed for distinguishing and showing such cracks. meanwhile, the new methods based on original wavelet transform are efficient and very important in the subject of signals. the ...

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...

A one-step, a two-step, an abridged, a skeletal and four detailed kinetic schemes of hydrogen oxidation have been tested. A new skeletal kinetic scheme of hydrogen oxidation has been developed. The CFD calculations were carried out using ANSYS CFX software. Ignition delay times and speeds of flames were derived from the computational results. The computational data obtained using ANSYS CFX and ...

The main objective of this research work is to find the natural frequency and mode shape of truck transmission housing. Truck transmission housing or gearbox transmission casing is subjected to vibration induced by the excitation forces transmitted to the casing through bearings. So it is required to find the natural frequency for the accurate prediction of housing life and prevent it from frac...

This research aims to simulate a gravity flow fractionation—the process to fractionate erythrocytes through gravitational field using ANSYS simulation software. A particular microfluidic channel was designed as a separation device. The gravitational equilibrium conditions of the erythrocytes and gravitational field as the parameters were chosen, then deriving the erythrocytes’ path through nume...

This paper presents the numerical modeling of a plate structure containing bonded piezoelectric material. Hamilton’s principle is employed to derive the finite element equations using the mechanical energy of the structure and the electrical energy of the piezoelectric material. Then, a numerical model is developed based on Kirchhoff’s plate theory. A computational program is implemented for an...

-In the present work an attempt is made to evaluate the suitability of composite material such as E-Glass/Epoxy and HMCarbon/Epoxy for the purpose of automotive transmission applications. A one-piece composite drive shaft for automobile is designed and analyzed using ANSYS software respectively for E-Glass/ Epoxy and HM-Carbon/Epoxy composites with the objective of minimization of weight of the...
