Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEducational Challenges in Computer-based Finite Element Analysis and Design of StructuresVagelis Plevris, Gro MarkesetComputer simulations and computational methods, such as the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) have become essential methodologies in science and engineering during the last decades, in a wide variety of academic fields. Six decades after the invention of the digital computer, advanced FE simulations are used to enhance and leapfrog theoretical and experimental progress, at different levels of complexity. Particularly in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 26 Oct 2018 · 8,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of the Stability of Underground Rock Pillars through a Probabilistic ApproachMassimo Guarascio, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: When the room and pillar mining method is adopted, the dimensioning of the rock pillars is one of the most important aspects that need to be faced from the engineering point of view. The available calculation methods are usually simplified and involve the areas of influence method for the evaluation of the mean axial stress induced in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Modeling the Prosthetic Foot from Suitable Composite MaterialsHasan Saad Mohammed, Jasim Mohammed SalmanThis work concerns developing a composite material, which can be used in manufacturing prosthetic feet with a reasonable cost and satisfying mechanical properties. The characteristics were investigated by mechanical tests of tensile properties and Charpy impact strength. The study of date palm wood and its effects on the mechanical properties of polyethylene have received little attention. It was found that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2020 · 7,605 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Seismic Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Columns with SFRP Using Finite Element MethodJalil Khani, Mohsen Bozorg, Seyed Mehdi ZahraiCurrently, various methods have been used for repairing and retrofitting reinforced concrete columns including Steel Fiber Reinforced Polymer (SFRP) jackets in order to improve load bearing capacity. However, the enclosure mechanism is less known by consideration of the effects of slender columns which needs much more studies. Avoiding the buckling of a slender Reinforced Concrete (RC) column against the compressive … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2018 · 8,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Analytical and Numerical Results for the Charring Rate of the Timber-Concrete BeamZuzana Kamenická, Jaroslav Sandanus, Lukáš Blesák et al.Modelling the thermal response of timber is a primary issue for the assessment of the mechanical resistance of timber structures exposed to fire. Therefore, this paper analyses various advanced calculation methods of determining the charring rate. Authors of this contribution use analytical calculation methods according to two different publications and also a numerical calculation by means of program based on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 4 Jun 2018 · 6,690 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Meshing of Structured Boundary Domains in Numerical AnalysesArnulf Kost, Kokou Tcharie, Ayité Senah Akoda Ajavon et al.The analysis of a practical problem using numerical methods such as Finite Element Method (FEM) or Boundary Element Method (BEM) involves the subdivision of the space occupied by a physical system (named domain) or its boundary into sub-domains or sub-boundaries called elements. This task, known as mesh generation or domain-discretization, is no more trivial if domains of real or industrial … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison Between Niemann’s and Finite Element Method for the Estimation of Maximum Allowable Stress of Meshing Spur Gear Teeth at Highest Point of Single Tooth ContactKonstandinos G. Raptis, Theodore N. Costopoulos, Andonios D. TsolakisPurpose of this study is the consideration of loading and contact problems encountered at rotating machine elements and especially at toothed gears. The later are some of the most commonly used mechanical components for rotary motion and power transmission. This fact proves the necessity for improved reliability and enhanced service life, which require precise and clear knowledge of the stress … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2012 · 7,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Cycle Fatigue Behavior of a Reduced End Plate Moment Connection (T-Stub)Chemin Lim, Wonchang Choi, Emmett A. Sumner, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: In this research, four reduced End Plate Moment Connection (EPMC) specimens (T-stubs) are tested to verify the numerical and theoretical methods for preanalysis of the Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) behavior of a four-bolt extended unstiffened EPMC. Approach: The T-stub specimens are bolted to a support frame and a monotonic load is applied to the stem plate. Yield line … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 12 Jan 2012 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Maximum Gear-Tooth Operating Bending Stresses Derived from Niemann's Analytical Procedure and the Finite Element MethodAndonios D. Tsolakis, Konstandinos G. RaptisProblem statement: Main purpose of this study was to investigation toothed gear loading problems using the Finite Element Method. Approach: We used Niemann’s equations to compare maximum bending stress which was developed at critical gear-tooth flank point during gear meshing, applied for three distinct spur-gear sizes, each having different teeth number, module and power rating. Results: The results emerging after … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStress Prediction in the Dynamic Compression Plate with Changing the Configuration of the Screw FixationBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: Human femur fracture is one of the most frequent type of bone fractures. One of the widely used methods in an internal fixation is an application of the Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP). The configuration of the screw fixation plays a major role of the DCP stress. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the stress distribution in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
