Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical and Numerical Analysis of Free Bulge Tube HydroformingF. Djavanroodi, M. Gheisary, H. Zoghi-shalFree bulge hydroforming simulation was analysied to investigate the biaxial behavior of extruded aluminum tubes. A finite element model was constructed to simulate the hydroforming process and asses the influence of friction between die walls and tube, tube material properties and springback of formed tube. It was found that material hardening coefficient had the most significant influence on formability characteristics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,863 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficient in a Buried ExchangerTaoufik Mnasri, Rached Ben Younès, Maher Raddaoui, Salem ElouraginiThis study presents analytical models allowing to study a forced convection laminar flow in non-established dynamic and thermic regimes. We treated a flow in a bitubular exchanger in permanent thermal contact with a semi-infinite medium, such as the ground. The wall temperature as well as the wall heat flux evolve in the course of time until a quasi-steady mode. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of C*-Integral in Thin T-Sections Subjected to Projection and Remote Loading Base on Elastic Stress Concentration FactorA.R. Gowhari-Anaraki, F. Djavanroodi, S. ShadlouThe finite element method has been used to predict the creep rupture parameter, C*-Integral of flat T-section bar subjected to loaded projection and remote loading with a crack or crack-like flaw introduced in the fillet (i.e., high stress) region of the component. In this study, a new dimensionless creeping crack configuration factor, Q* has been introduced. Power low creeping finite … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,469 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation Into The Behavior of Circular Pad Shallow Foundations Supported By Geogrid Reinforced SandS. M. Marandi, M. H. Bagheripour, R. Rahgozar, A. R. GhirianThis study seeks to widen the pool of knowledge on the use and characteristics of geosynthetics, specifically in the area of circular foundations supported by geosynthetic reinforced sand. The main objective of the work was to increase the awareness of circular foundation systems and thus increase the accuracy of current laboratory methods. Also, compare the results with that of previous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosed Die Forging Geometrical Parameters Optimization for Al-MMCM. Jolgaf, S.B. Sulaiman, M.K.A Ariffin, A.A. FaiezaDemand for lighter and stiffer products has been increasing in the last few years especially in automobile manufacturing. The closed die forging process of Metal Matrix Material (MMC) is presented as possible solution, since it produces parts with good mechanical properties and lighter weight. A computational modeling of closed die forging process using finite element method and optimization techniques makes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Frictional Contact Problem During the Process of Metal WorkingNicolae PopThe quasistatic contact problem with dry friction, contributes to the achievement of a numerical model for the simultaneity of different kinds of viscoplastic, incompressible materials forming. Starting from a variational formulation of the problem, which extends the static case, a perturbed Lagrangean, discrete formulation within the framework of finite element method is obtained. On the contact boundary we have used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,293 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTactile Distinction of an Artery and a Tumor in a Soft Tissue by Finite Element MethodAli Abouei Mehrizi, Siamak Najarian, Majid Moini, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheTactile detection of a tumor and an artery in a tissue and distinction of a healthy artery from a stenotic artery, using finite element method, are presented. Four 2D models of tissue have been created: tissue itself, tissue including a tumor (TIT), tissue including a healthy artery (TIHA), and tissue including a stenotic artery (TISA). After solving four models with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,596 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 abstractAn Investigation on the Effect of the Coupled and Uncoupled Formulation on Transient Seepage by the Finite Element MethodAhad Ouria, Mohammad M. Toufigh, Ali Nakhai2-D transient seepage beneath a dam was investigated by the finite element method. Governing equations were considered in coupled and uncoupled methods. At first stage, the fluid continuity equation for compressible porous media considered as uncoupled. Because of the occurrence of seepage forces, and their interaction with the fluid pore pressure, particularly in high compressible soils, uncoupled methods seem to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,073 accessesView PDFCite
