Corn (Zea mays L.) nitrogen (N) strategies that account for fertilizer timing and source may differentially affect soil bacterial communities require further validation when preceded by cover crops (CC). Field studies were conducted (2014–2016) evaluating the effects of daikon radish [Raphanus sativus (L.)], forage oat [Avena sativa no CC combined with multiple N management on alpha diversity m...

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. Th...

The machine tool spindle provides the relative motion between the cutting tool and the workpiece which is necessary to perform a material removal operation. In turning, it is the physical link between the machine tool structure and the workpiece, while in processes like milling, drilling or grinding, it links the structure and the cutting tool. This work deals with design and analysis of Lathe ...

At ANSYS Workbench 11.0, the ANSYS Rigid Dynamics add-on module enables users to define joint connections in complex kinematic assemblies. This ability to model rigid and flexible parts in ANSYS Workbench Simulation via joints is beneficial since the rigid parts are modeled with mass and rigid links (that is, rigid contact elements), thus providing load transfer capabilities and allowing users ...
