Mechanical failure analysis in a virtual reality environmentLi, Jian-Ping, Thompson, Glen P. 20 July 2009 (has links)
No / This paper is part of a research theme to develop methods that enhance risk assessment studies by the use of 'automated' failure analysis. The paper presents an approach to mechanical failure analysis and introduces a mechanical failure analysis module that can be used in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The module is used to analyse and predict failures in mechanical assemblies; it considers stress related failures within components, as well as failures due to component interactions. Mechanical failures are divided into two categories in this paper: material failures and interference failures. The former occur in components and the latter happen at the interface between components. Individual component failures can be analysed readily; a contribution of the mechanical failure analysis module is to predict interference failures. A mechanical failure analysis system that analyses and visualizes mechanical failures in a virtual environment has been developed. Two case studies demonstrate how the system carries out failure analysis and visualization as design parameters are changed.

Modelling of failureBjörklund, Oscar January 2008 (has links)
<p>This report is a review of some failure models today used for determine failure in thin sheets of high strength steels. Focus has been given on phenomenlogical models and only some simple simulations have been carried out. The phenomenlogical models that have been summarized here are of four different categories, namely stress based, strain based, combined stress and strain based and damaged models. However, the simulations have only been preformed for some of the models.</p>

Performance characteristics of a deep tilling rotavatorMarenya, Moses Okoth 11 June 2010 (has links)
This study was undertaken to develop an analytical model that is capable of predicting the torque requirements of a rotavator fitted with commercially available L-shaped blades. An analytical approach based on the limit equilibrium analysis was used to develop the proposed model. The proposed model was verified by comparing the model and measured torque requirements at predetermined rotavator blade angular positions from the horizontal for a down-cut rotavator. The study findings indicated that there was an optimum set tillage depth for each rotavator configuration and operational conditions at which the resultant horizontal thrust generated was greatest. This unique depth was influenced by the bite length. The validation of the proposed model showed that the predicted and measured torque requirements, at different angular blade positions from the horizontal, correlated reasonably well for all the set tillage depths. As the depth of tillage increased, however, the curve for the measured torque requirements exhibited a cyclic behaviour after the peak torque requirements value had been recorded. The cyclic behaviour was probably due to the re-tilling and the instability of the tool-frame carrier, which increased with the set tillage depth. The knowledge contributed by this research will afford the designers of active tillage tools a better understanding of the operations of the rotavator, particularly in deep tillage. The modelling approach, and instrumentation technique used in this research, can be extended to analyze the performance of rotavators fitted with other types of commercial blades. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Civil Engineering / unrestricted
