This paper investigates the interfacial slip between the forming tool and workpiece in a relatively new metal forming process, cross-wedge rolling. Based on the finite elements method, three-dimensional mechanical model of cross wedge rolling process has been developed. Examples of numerical simulation for strain, stress distributions and rolling load components have been included. The main advantages of the finite element method are: the capability of obtaining detailed solutions of the mechanics in a deforming body, namely, stresses, shapes, strains or contact pressure distributions; and the computer codes, can be used for a large variety of problems by simply changing the input data.

A three-dimensional coupled fluid-thermal finite element simulation model has been developed to provide analyzing distribution of velocity and temperature of nine-spacer nozzle by using FEM simulation of FLOTRAN module in ANSYS 6.0. To explore fluid-thermal analysis of the flow fields of nine-spacer nozzle of aluminum roll-casting, stricter analysis of postprocessing result was conducted by MATLAB. It was concluded that flow field of nine-spacer nozzle was able to match cooling capacity of cast rollers, but nine-spacer nozzle’s geometric flaw didn’t suit for working in the case of speed increasing of the drawing-sheet and thickness reducing of the aluminium sheet during roll casting.

The Impact

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a promising, non-invasive approach in the diagnosis and treatment of several neurological conditions. However, the specific results in the cortex of the magnitude and spatial distribution of the secondary electrical field (E-field) resulting from TMS at different stimulation sites/orientations and varied TMS parameters are not clearly understood. The objective of this study is to identify the impact of TMS stimulation site and coil orientation on the induced E-field, including spatial distribution and the volume of activation in the cortex across brain areas, and hence demonstrate the need for customized optimization, using a three-dimensional finite element model (FEM). A considerable difference was noted in E-field values and distribution at different brain areas. We observed that the volume of activated cortex varied from 3000 to 7000 mm3 between the selected nine clinically relevant coil locations. Coil orientation also changed the induced E-field by a maximum of 10%, and we noted the least optimal values at the standard coil orientation pointing to the nose. The volume of gray matter activated varied by 10% on average between stimulation sites in homologous brain areas in the two hemispheres of the brain. This FEM simulation model clearly demonstrates the importance of TMS parameters for optimal results in clinically relevant brain areas. The results show that TMS parameters cannot be interchangeably used between individuals, hemispheres, and brain areas. The focality of the TMS induced E-field along with its optimal magnitude should be considered as critical TMS parameters that should be individually optimized.

In this paper, the structural safety of the Niuwan Bridge subjected to vessel collision is investigated by the large-scale commercial finite element software ANSYS. A whole FEM model is built and a reasonable analysis and illustration for taking the value of vessel-collision forces is presented. Additionally, under the premise of reasonable simulation of the boundary conditions, the effects of the support abutments, the prestress and the carloads are considered. The analysis results have certain reference values for the anti-collision and reinforcement of bridges.

We developed a microfluidic platform employing (normally open) pneumatic valves for particle concentration. The device features a three-dimensional network with a curved fluidic channel and three pneumatic valves (a sieve valve (Vs) that concentrates particles and two ON/OFF rubber-seal pneumatic valves that block the working fluid). Double-sided replication employing polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was used to fabricate the network, channel, and chamber. Particles were blocked by deformation of the Vs diaphragm, and then accumulated in the curved microfluidic channel. The working fluid was discharged via operation of the two ON/OFF valves. After concentration, particles were released to an outlet port. The Vs pressure required to block solid particles varying in diameter was determined based on the height of the curved microchannel and a finite element method (FEM) simulation of Vs diaphragm displacement. Our method was verified according to the temporal response of the fluid flow rate controlled by the pneumatic valves. Furthermore, all particles with various diameters were successfully blocked, accumulated, and released. The operating pressure, time required for concentration, and concentration ratio were dependent on the particle diameter. The estimated concentration percentage of 24.9 µm diameter polystyrene particles was about 3.82% for 20 min of operation.

Internalization of pathogens inside pores and channels of fresh produce and formation of polymeric biofilm around their colonies are important phenomena in food safety due to complications they create for removal and inactivation of pathogens. The practical challenges does not allow for monitoring the pathogen-produce interaction in real time and under different ambient conditions. The present work introduces a biomimetic biosensing platform that simulates the actual produce and can detect the presence, growth and internalization of microorganisms and also potential formation of biofilm. The system consists of layers of capacitive electrodes made of polycrystalline silicon which are designed based on a standard foundry process (PolyMUMPs). The electrodes form multiple impedance-based biosensors and can simulate porous medium of the produce surface. As the cells reside on the surface of the top layer or penetrate inside the system, the capacitance value of each electrode pair changes. Monitoring the capacitance change of each biosensor allows us to determine where the microorganisms are and also whether their population is increasing. To demonstrate the applicability of our proposed biosensing system, a comprehensive FEM simulation is performed using ANSYS® APDL. The simulation results show that each pair of electrodes displays a specific pattern of capacitance change when cells reside on the system’s surface, move inside, grow or produce polymeric biofilm, because the electrostatic properties of cells and biofilm polymers are different from those of the solution. Analyzing the capacitance patterns allows us to determine that cells are at which stage of growth or internalization, and how far they have moved inside the system.
