Simulation of Flexible Tubes in VR
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a Virtual Reality application enabling interactive, physically correct simulation of tube-like flexible objects. Our objective was to describe flexible objects by a set of parameters (length, diameter and material constants) instead of rigid geometry (triangle meshes) and to give the user the possibility to add, delete and manipulate those flexible objects in a stereo projected environment in real-time.

Investigation of the effect of buckling initiator on energy absorption of thin-walled circular tubes by using of numerical simulation
Cylindrical thin-walled tubes due to construction and easy installation, high energy absorption capacity are used in the automotive industry as an impact energy absorber. However, the main weakness of cylindrical tubes is in the high initial peak load. Therefore, in this paper, to overcome this weakness, a buckling initiator is used at the top of the tube. This buckling initiator is a steel rod...

متن کاملMechanism of Improvement of Formability in Pulsating Hydroforming of T-shape Tubes
In this paper, the mechanism of improvement of formability in pulsating hydroforming of T-shape tubes is investigated by the finite element simulation and experiment. It is shown that local thinning was prevented by oscillating the internal pressure, because the protrusion is formed gradually by the prevention of sharp bulging. In the hydroforming, for the pulsating pressure, several steps occu...
