In the current study, the effects of Casimir force and squeeze film damping on pull-in instability and dynamic behavior of electrostatically actuated nano and micro electromechanical systems are investigated separately. Linear elastic membrane theory is used to model the static and dynamic behavior of the system for strip, annular and disk geometries. Squeeze film damping is modeled using nonli...

At present, aluminum bumper has been used in the field of passenger cars. In order to provide technical reference for alloy be developed, and better develop bumper, this project analyzes material process an existing from perspective mechanical properties, composition, connection method between each component. Through crushing, static pressure, collision test simulation technology, performance b...

car body lightening and crashworthiness are two important objectives of car design. due to their excellent performance, composite materials are extensively used in the car industries. in addition, reducing the weight of vehicle is effective in decreasing the fuel consumption. hat shape energy absorber is used in car’s doors for side impact protection. the aim of these numerical models and exper...

The compaction and re-crushing characteristics of crushed gangue are important factors which affect the quality effectiveness filling quarry. To study particles, continuous grading intermittent two different structures were designed to bulk particle size distribution. By conducting a side-limited uniaxial compression test on gangue, deformation parameters samples under axial pressure conditions...

In this article, crashworthiness performance and crushing behavior of tapered structures with four internal reinforcing plates under axial and oblique dynamic loadings have been investigated. These structures have a tapered form with five cross sections of square, hexagonal, octagonal, decagon and circular shape. In the first step, finite element simulations performed in LS-DYNA were validated ...

In the present article, a numerical study is performed to investigate the crushing behavior of cylindrical and conical corrugated composite tubes. Different aluminum foams are applied to the proposed structures in order to offer an excellent energy absorption capacity. The crushing behavior of tubes are evaluated in terms of two parameters: SEA (specific energy absorption) and CFE (crush force ...
