Změna konstrukce profilu dveřního křídla pro kolejové vozidlo / Modifying profile design of the door leaf for rail vehicleLysák, Jan January 2015 (has links)
This master thesis deals with creation computional model of specific door leaf which was researched and now is provided by company named IFE-CR, a.s. Finite element method analysis is performed within the standards for load conditions during the operation. Stress-strain response should be the main factor to comparing results with experiment on real door. Based on acquired knowledge from the original model we can evaluate credibility of mechanical behavior of newly designed model which has lower profil tapered from the original 42 mm to 25,4 mm. From the results of FEM analysis of the modified profile is evaluated applicability to the real operational state. At the end is quantified material and financial savings achieved by reducing the height of profile.

Design and Development of a Minimally Invasive Endoscope: Highly Flexible Stem with Large Deflection and Stiffenable Exoskeleton StructureChoi, JungHun 27 February 2006 (has links)
Colonoscopy provides a minimally invasive tool for examining and treating the colon without surgery, but current endoscope designs still cause a degree of pain and injury to the colon wall. The most common colonoscopies are long tubes inserted through the rectum, with locomotion actuators, fiber optic lights, cameras, and biopsy tools on the distal end. The stiffness required to support these tools makes it difficult for the scopes to navigate the twisted path of the colon without damaging the inside wall of the colon or distorting its shape. In addition, little is known about how sharp and forceful endoscopes can be without accidentally cutting into tissue during navigation.
In order to solve the requirements of stiffness (to support tools) and flexibility (to navigate turns), we expanded on a design by Zehel et al. [49], who proposed surrounding a flexible endoscope with an external exoskeleton structure, with controllable stiffness. The exoskeleton structure is comprised of rigid, articulating tubular units, which are stiffened or relaxed by four control cables. The stiffened or locked exoskeleton structure aids navigation and provides stability for the endoscope when it protrudes beyond the exoskeleton structure for examination and procedures. This research determined the design requirements of such an exoskeleton structure and simulated its behavior in a sigmoid colon model.
To predict just how pointed an endoscope can be without damaging tissue under a given force, we extrapolated a strength model of the descending colon from published stress-strain curves of human colon tissue. Next we analyzed how friction, cable forces, and unit angles interact to hold the exoskeleton structure in a locked position. By creating two- and three-dimensional models of the exoskeleton structure, we optimized the dimensions of the units of an exoskeleton structure (diameter, thickness, and leg angle) and cable holders ( cable attachment location) to achieve the turns of the sigmoid colon, while still remaining lockable. Models also predicted the loss of force over the exoskeleton structure due to curving, further determining the required cable angles and friction between units. Finally we determined how the stiffness of the endoscope stem affected locking ability and wear inside the exoskeleton structure. / Ph. D.

BENDING CHARACTERISTICS AND STRETCH BENDABILITY OF MONOLITHIC AND LAMINATED SHEET MATERIALSGOVINDASAMY, GANESH NIRANJAN 11 1900 (has links)
Bending deformation characteristics of monolithic, bi-layer and tri-layer laminate sheet materials are studied using Analytical and FE models in this work. The analytical model, based on advanced theory of pure bending considers von Mises yielding, Ludwik hardening law and Bauschinger effect for various laminate constituent thickness ratios. The principal stresses and strains through the thickness and, change in relative thickness at specified bend curvatures are obtained as a function of increasing curvature during bending. Additionally, 2D and 3D finite element (FE) based models for bending are developed to overcome simplifications of the analytical models such as the effect of specimen width on strain distribution. Further, to experimentally assess and validate bending characteristics from the analytical models, a new experimental bend test-jig that is closer to pure bending is developed. The experimental set-up is an open concept design that allows access to the tensile surface as well as through-thickness region for recording and analyzing strains using an online strain mapping system based on digital image correction (DIC) method. Experimental bending is carried out on annealed AA2024 monolithic aluminum alloy sheet and Steel/Aluminum (SS400/AA1050) bi-layer laminate sheet at different thickness ratios. The model and experiments are studied in terms of stress and strain distribution as a function of relative thickness for different clad to matrix thickness ratios.
Further the case of simultaneous bending and stretching over small radius bending is analyzed for limit strain prediction using an existing limit strain criterion based on major strain acceleration. An angular stretch bend test is used to subject an hour-glass shaped
AA20240-O aluminum sheet specimen to simultaneous stretching and bending deformation while continuously imaging the critical tensile surface region using an optical camera. The strain development in the critical region is subsequently analyzed using digital image correlation (DIC) method. The effect of DIC parameters such as facet size, facet step, and effect of curve fitting procedures on limit strain are studied. An average limit strain of 0.2 is obtained for AA2024 for a facet size of 9x9 pixels, a facet step of 5 pixels and by applying a 5th order polynomial curve fit to the strain data. The results obtained are comparable with a limit strain of the material. The results are compared with a commercially available tri-layer laminate sheet material Alclad 2024 that has 80 μm thin layer of soft AA1100 on both surfaces of harder AA2024 core material. An improved stretch bendability limit strain of 0.24 for Alclad 2024 tri-layer specimen was predicted by utilizing the major strain acceleration criterion. The thin AA1100 protective layer produced a positive effect on the stretch bendability of Alclad 2024 when compared with monolithic AA2024 specimen. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

<p>Stanje Zemljine kore određeno je istovremenim i suprotstavljenim uticajem<br />endodinamičkih i egzodinamičkih procesa. Površinski slojevi omotača<br />Zemljine kore su u stalnom pokretu pod dejstvom uticaja, kao što su<br />promena nivoa podzemnih voda, tektonske pojave, klizišta itd.

U<br />disertaciji je prikazano istraživanje pomeranja Zemljine kore regionalnog<br />karaktera sa geodetskog aspekta, na osnovu ponovljenih opažanja metodom<br />satelitskog pozicioniranja, čime je dat doprinos multidisciplinarnom<br />razumevanju stanja Zemljine kore.</p> / <p>The state of the Earth’s crust is determined by the simultaneous and opposed<br />influence of the endodynamic and exodynamic processes. The surface layers of<br />the Earth’s crust envelope are in the state of permanent moving due to divers<br />influences, such as the level variation of underground waters, tectonic<br />phenomena, landslides, etc. Significant deformations can arise as a consequence<br />of a number of regional and local strain states, especially in the boundary zones<br />of lithosphere plates where strains are accumulated and non-linear interseismic<br />deformations appear. The subject of the thesis is a study of movements of the<br />Earth’s crust of regional character from the aspect of geodesy, on the basis of<br />repeated observations by applying the satellite positioning method. In this way a<br />contribution is given to a multidisciplinary concept of the state of the Earth’s crust.</p>

Modelling of friction stir spot weldingReilly, Aidan January 2013 (has links)
Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) is a solid-state welding process which is especially useful for joining precipitation-hardened aluminium alloys that undergo adverse property changes during fusion welding. It also has potential as an effective method for solid-state joining of dissimilar alloys. In FSSW, heat generation and plastic flow are strongly linked, and the scale of the process in time and space is such that it is difficult to separate and control the influence of all the relevant input parameters. The use of modelling is well-established in the field of welding research, and this thesis presents an analysis of the thermal and mechanical aspects of FSSW, principally using the finite element (FE) technique. Firstly, a thermal FE model is shown, which is subsequently validated by reference to experimental temperature data in both aluminium-to-aluminium and aluminium-to-steel welds. Correlations between high-quality welds and temperature fields are established, and predictions are made for peak temperatures reached under novel welding conditions. Deformation and heating are strongly linked in FSSW, but existing modelling tools are poorly suited to modelling flow processes in the conditions extant in FSSW. This thesis discusses the development and optimisation of two novel techniques to overcome the limitations of current approaches. The first of these uses greatly simplified constitutive behaviour to convert the problem into one defined purely by kinematics. In doing so, the boundary conditions reduce to a small number of assumptions about the contact conditions between weld material and tool, and the model calculation time is very rapid. This model is used to investigate changes in the slip condition at the tool to workpiece interface without an explicit statement of the friction law. Marker experiments are presented which use dissimilar composition but similar strength alloys to visualise flow patterns. The layering behaviour and surface patterns observed in the model agree well with observations from these experiments. The second approach extends the FE method to include deformation behaviour without the need for a fully-coupled approach, guided by the kinematic model. This is achieved using an innovative sequential small-strain analysis method in which thermal and deformation analyses alternate, with each running at a very different timescale. This technique avoids the requirement to either remesh the model domain at high strains or to use an explicit integration scheme, both of which impose penalties in calculation time and model complexity. The method is used to relate the purely thermal analysis developed in the work on thermal modelling to welding parameters such as tool speed. The model enables predictions of the spatial and temporal evolution of heat generation to be made directly from the constitutive behaviour of the alloy and the assumed velocity profile at the tool-workpiece interface. Predictions of the resulting temperature history are matched to experimental data and novel conditions are simulated, and these predictions correlate accurately with experimental results. Hence, the model is used to predict welding outcomes for situations for which no experimental data exists, and process charts are produced to describe optimum welding parameters. The methods and results presented in this thesis have significant implications for modelling friction stir spot welding, from optimising process conditions, to integration with microstructural models (to predict softening in the heat-affected zone, or the formation of intermetallics at the interface in dissimilar welds). The technique developed for sequential small strain finite element analysis could also be investigated for use in other kinematically constrained solid-state friction joining processes.

Deformační a napěťová analýza dentálního implantátu zavedeného v horní čelisti / Stress-strain analysis of dental implant inserted in maxillaDušková, Tereza January 2017 (has links)
Variety of problems can appear when introducing dental implants, especially to in the maxilla. Biggest problems are caused by insufficient quality and volume of the bone tissue of the alveolar process. This thesis focuses on stress-strain analysis of an implant introduced in the maxilla. Mechanical interaction between the implant and bone tissue is solved using computational modelling with the finite element method. From analysis of results, it was discovered that deformation and tension of the implant are influenced by the direction of the load, osseointegration and thickness of the cortical bone tissue. In the anterior region, it is necessary to work with other types of load than axial.
