Torque Capacity

This paper proposes the theoretical model of a multilayer interference fit and gives out the relational expression between radial interference and friction coefficient. Taking the typical wind turbine's shrink disk of a three-layer interference fit structure as an example, special experimental equipment is developed to test the torque capacity. Based on experimental results and the theoretical model, the mathematical expressions of radial interference and assembly stroke for friction coefficient are obtained by polynomial fitting, and the prediction model of friction coefficient is established. The three-dimensional finite element model of a shrink disk is constructed by applying the friction coefficient prediction model. With the mathematical expressions of radial interference and assembly stroke for the torque capacity, the rules of main dimension parameters and torque capacity are analyzed. The maximum relative error between experiment and simulation is 8.2%, which shows the feasibility of finite element simulation. The results of our study have certain guidance for the prediction of friction coefficient and the manufacture of the multilayer interference fit.

Friction Stir

Introduction. Friction stir welding is widely used due to certain advantages of this method. Factors that reduce the strength of joints made of high-strength aluminum alloys are considered. When welding flat sheets, an effective way to increase the strength of the weld is edge thickening. The paper proposes a method for such thickening. A device is developed, calculations and experiments are carried out. Materials and Methods. Laboratory equipment has been developed to provide simultaneous thickening of two edges to be welded. The main component of this equipment is a steel roller, which is rolled along the edges of two blanks and thickens them due to plastic deformation. The same setup can be used for the friction stir welding process. To calculate the geometry of the thickened edges and the parameters of the deforming roller depending on the value of the edge settlement, a mathematical model based on the contact problem for elastic (roller) and elastoplastic (blank) bodies with a bilinear hardening law has been developed. A three-dimensional simplified geometric model of the facility with account of its symmetry has been constructed. On the contact surfaces, special contact finite elements were selected and the finite element mesh was refined. The numerical implementation of the model was carried out in the ANSYS package. Results. The theoretical model provides assessing the stress-strain state of interacting elements. On the basis of the developed finite element model, the parameters of the thickened edges are calculated, and the geometry of the thickened edges is defined. Using the developed laboratory equipment, full-scale experiments on thickening the edges of the blanks were carried out. The experimental results confirm the adequacy of the developed theoretical model and calculations based on it. The possibility of adjusting the size of the thickened edges is shown.Discussion and Conclusion. A technology for obtaining thickened edges in places of welds is proposed. It will reduce the metal consumption of structures and ensure the bearing capacity of welded joints not lower than similar characteristics of the base metal. A theoretical model of the process is developed, and a numerical experiment providing the selection of the process parameters is carried out.

Foldable and deployable flexible composite thin-walled structures have the characteristics of light weight, excellent mechanical properties and large deformation ability, which means they have good application prospects in the aerospace field. In this paper, a simplified theoretical model for predicting the position of the neutral section of a lenticular deployable composite boom (DCB) in tensile deformation is proposed. The three-dimensional lenticular DCB is simplified as a two-dimensional spring system and a rigid rod, distributed in parallel along the length direction. The position of the neutral cross-section can be determined by solving the balance equations and geometric relations. In order to verify the validity of the theoretical model, a finite element model of the tensile deformation of a lenticular DCB was established. The theoretical prediction results were compared with the finite element calculation results, and the two results were in good agreement.

Riveting Process

Laminated composite plates have lower interlaminar strength making it difficult to apply interference-fit rivet joining. In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model has been developed in order to simulate the riveting process on composite plates. The finite element model is based on continuum elements and accounts for some important mechanisms involved in a whole riveting process. The stresses around the rivet hole and the deformed shapes of the rivet are presented together with the effects of the interference fit and the geometry of the washer when the rivet joints are subjected to the compressive load. The numerical results show the applicability of an interference-fit riveting in composite laminates.

Fretting Damage

In this paper, aimed at wheel-axle with axle load of 30 ton, the three dimensional finite element model was established, and the interference fit between wheel and axle was considered. According to Standard EN13103, the vertical load and the lateral load were determined, and then the stress distribution of axle was computed under two cases: only vertical load and both vertical and lateral load. The result shows that: the increase of axle load causes the increase of slip between axle and hub, which leads to an increase of fretting damage and a reduction in fatigue life. In addition, Dang Van criterion was employed to evaluate the fatigue of the whole axle. It is found that the transition zone next to wheel seat and the interface of hub and axle are dangerous points, which is in accordance with the practice.

Abstract A finite element model was developed to simulate the tire-rim interface. Elastomers were modeled by nonlinear incompressible elements, whereas plies were simulated by cord-rubber composite elements. Gap elements were used to simulate the opening between tire and rim at zero inflation pressure. This opening closed when the inflation pressure was increased gradually. The predicted distribution of contact pressure at the tire-rim interface agreed very well with the available experimental measurements. Several variations of the tire-rim interference fit were analyzed.

Abstract A three-dimensional (3D) beam finite element model was developed to investigate the torsional stiffness of a twisted steel-reinforced cord-rubber belt structure. The present 3D beam element takes into account the coupled extension, bending, and twisting deformations characteristic of the complex behavior of cord-rubber composite structures. The extension-twisting coupling due to the twisted nature of the cords was also considered in the finite element model. The results of torsional stiffness obtained from the finite element analysis for twisted cords and the two-ply steel cord-rubber belt structure are compared to the experimental data and other alternate solutions available in the literature. The effects of cord orientation, anisotropy, and rubber core surrounding the twisted cords on the torsional stiffness properties are presented and discussed.

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.

The aim of this study was to compare the reduced stresses according to Huber’s hypothesis and the displacement pattern in the region of the facial skeleton using a tooth- or bone-borne appliance in surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME). In the current literature, the lack of updated reports about biomechanical effects in bone-borne appliances used in SARME is noticeable. Finite element analysis (FEA) was used for this study. Six facial skeleton models were created, five with various variants of osteotomy and one without osteotomy. Two different appliances for maxillary expansion were used for each model. The three-dimensional (3D) model of the facial skeleton was created on the basis of spiral computed tomography (CT) scans of a 32-year-old patient with maxillary constriction. The finite element model was built using ANSYS 15.0 software, in which the computations were carried out. Stress distributions and displacement values along the 3D axes were found for each osteotomy variant with the expansion of the tooth- and the bone-borne devices at a level of 0.5 mm. The investigation showed that in the case of a full osteotomy of the maxilla, as described by Bell and Epker in 1976, the method of fixing the appliance for maxillary expansion had no impact on the distribution of the reduced stresses according to Huber’s hypothesis in the facial skeleton. In the case of the bone-borne appliance, the load on the teeth, which may lead to periodontal and orthodontic complications, was eliminated. In the case of a full osteotomy of the maxilla, displacements in the buccolingual direction for all the variables of the bone-borne appliance were slightly bigger than for the tooth-borne appliance.
