Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFracture and springback on Double Bulge Tube Hydro-FormingF. Djavanroodi, M. GheisaryThis research aims to establish a basic understanding of Double Bulge Tube Hydro-Form processing of stainless steel deep drawn cups. The method is briefly reviewed by carrying out experimental tests and Finite element analysis. By measuring bulge height in both formed curves by Coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and thickness variation specimen by Ulterasonic thickness measurment device (UTM), it has been … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Parameters Affecting Warping In Radial Forging ProcessF. Djavanroodi, M. Sabeghi, K. AbriniaRadial forging is a process in which one or two punches move axially causing a radial flow into a die cavity by means of which a flange is formed. During forging, warping, in which the lower face of thin flange rises from the die face may occur. To better understand the effect of parameters affecting the warping in radial forging … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerically Studying the Effect of Stiffening Rings on Reducing the Thickness of Torospherical Heads under Pressure on Their Concave SideSa'id Golabi, Ali Ghorbanpour-Arani, Arash ZamaniThe high thickness of heads used in pressure vessels is always one of the main concerns of designers and manufacturers. A thorough study has been conducted on all types of heads including torospherical heads, with external and internal pressure to reduce their thickness using stiffening rings by finite element technique. Here the result of analysis on heads with pressure on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMagnetic and Thermal Analysis of Current Transformer in Normal and Abnormal ConditionsM. B.B. Sharifian, M. Farrokhifar, R. Esmaeilzadeh et al.Calculation of Current Transformers (CTs) magnetic and thermal properties are very complex due to the complexity of their construction, different properties of their materials and non-linearity of core B-H curve. Finite Element Methods (FEMs) are very capable and reliable methods for these problems solution, such as Ansys software. In this study Ansys software is applied in analysis of an 800-400/5-5 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of a Tactile Sensor with Applications in Minimally Invasive SurgeryAshkan Mirbagheri, Siamak Najarian, Javad Dargahi, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheThis paper describes mathematical modeling of a novel supported tactile sensor. This system has only three or four sensing elements instead of an array configuration. By writing a code, together with using the piezoelectric capabilities of the finite element analysis software, it is possible to extract the stresses developed in the tactile membrane along the edges of the sensing elements, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling for Shakedown Analysis of Offshore StructuresMohammad Javad Fadaee, Hamed Saffari, Ramin TabatabaeiThe shakedown analysis process of an offshore structure having elastic-plastic material presented. The finite element model of the structure has been developed first, and then a simple method has been applied for shakedown analysis using matrix tool. Simplifying the relationships together with applying the theory concepts of shakedown analysis is one of the characteristics of the presented method for practical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFree Vibration Analysis of a Cross-Ply Laminated Composite Beam on Pasternak FoundationR. A. Jafari-Talookolaei, M. T. AhmadianIn this study, free vibration analysis of a cross-ply laminated composite beam (LCB) on Pasternak foundation was investigated. Natural frequencies of beam on Pasternak foundation are computed using finite element method (FEM) on the basis of Timoshenko beam theory. Effect of both shear deformation and rotary inertia are implemented in the modeling of stiffness and mass matrices. The model was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Solution Code for Structural Analysis upon Joint ElementS. A. Sadrnejad, M. LabibzadehThe analysis of large structures mostly requires a complete three dimensional finite element discretization. Stability of such structures includes not only the stability of structure itself but also that of foundation as well as interconnection elements. The general instability of a structure may be affected by two aspects, firstly, an inappropriate preliminary classical design of the structure and inadequate control … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,442 accessesView PDFCite
