This research introduces an advanced forging method to produce the door frame of the wind turbine tower. The advantage of the new forging method is the increase of raw material utilization ratio and the energy saving. In the conventional method, the door frame is hot forged with a hydraulic press and machined out lots of material because of the big difference between forging shape and final mac...

Frictional shear stress is usually determined by utilizing the coefficient of friction or the constant friction factor models. The present study deals with finite element analysis of double cup extrusion process to determine the relationship between constant friction factor (m) and coefficient of friction (µ), since the metal flow in this process is very sensitive to frictional conditions. Ther...

distal extension removable partial denture is a prosthesis with lack of distal dental support with a 13-fold difference in resiliency between the mucosa and the periodontal ligament, resulting in leverage during compression forces. it may be potentially destructive to the abutments and the surrounding tissues. the aim of this study was to assess the effect of implant location on stress distribu...

This paper poses two magnetostatic problems in cylindrical coordinates with different permeabilities for each region. In the first problem the boundary condition of the second kind is used while in the second one, the boundary condition of the third kind is utilized. These problems are solved using the finite element and finite difference methods. In second problem, the results of the finite di...

A master element to be employed as a general spatial rod finite element is presented. This spatially curved and pretwisted element can have variable cross-section and variable curvature change. It may also be resting on an elastic foundation. Also, a finite element formulation for a general earthquake analysis of spatial rods is presented. The theoretical foundation has lead to a general-purpos...

static analysis of sandwich constructions subjected to pressure and concentrated loads with the use of finite element method has been discussed in this paper. because of difficulties involved in analytical solution for most of the practical problems. an efficient computer programs has been developed that can be executed on a pc/xt computer and solves complicated problems easily and economically...
