En la presente investigación se simula el comportamiento de un deshidratador hibrido indirecto activo con las condiciones atmosféricas ciudad Riobamba, debido a que existe necesidad deshidratar frutas y verduras en tiempos sobreproducción no alcanzan llegar al mercado. Para ello, desarrolla una metodología permitirá tener buena aproximación solución. Se parte del diseño prototipo para luego som...

purpose: since explosive blasts continue to cause casualties in both civil and military environments, there is a need for an understanding of the mechanisms of blast trauma at the human organ level, plus a more detailed predictive methodology. the primary goal of this research was to develop a finite element model capable of predicting primary blast injury to the lung so as to assist in the dev...

The pulley frame of a rotary drilling rig is located at the top mast and plays role changing direction wire rope movement. For certain type rig, front cover plate main was cracked damaged during working process, vibration signal tested under relevant conditions using test method. 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modelling performed Creo software, from PTC [1]. CAD model used to create finite elem...

This study proposes a new microcantilever design with a rectangular hole at the fixed end of the cantilever that is more sensitive than conventional ones. A commercial finite element analysis software ANSYS is used to analyze it. The Stoney equation is first used to calculate the surface stress induced moment, and then applied to the microcantilever free end to produce deflection. The stress an...

An effort made towards the performance improvement for an XY micromanipulator featuring parallel architecture and flexure hinges has been presented in this paper. Through the implementation of four steps evolution of the original structure, a new manipulator with decoupled motion is finally obtained, which owns an enlarged workspace and eliminated stiffening and buckling phenomena. The merits o...

The recent advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be useful in observing the detailed hemodynamics in cerebral aneurysms for understanding not only their formation and rupture but also for clinical evaluation and treatment. However, important hemodynamic quantities are difficult to measure in vivo. In the present study, an approximate model of normal middle cerebral artery (MCA) alo...

A. Śliwa, M. Bonek, Silesian University of Technology, Institute of Engineering Materials and Biomaterials, Gliwice, Poland Investigations include FEM simulation model of alloying the PMHSS6-5-3 steel surface layer with the carbides and ceramic powders, especially WC, VC, TiC, SiC, Si3N4 and Al2O3 particles using the high power diode laser (HPDL). The FEM computations were performed using ANSYS...

A kind of parametric finite element analysis system for the L type gantry crane’s gate frame is developed by making use of the secondary development on the platform of ANSYS, MATLAB through VC++ programming. The interface technology of VC++, ANSYS, and MATLAB is employed as well as the encapsulation on APDL. To input parameter in the VC++ and to calculate the quality of the L type gantry crane ...

A double-axis flexure hinges combined with elliptical and parabolic curve is presented in this paper. The design equations for its compliance computation have been deduced by application of Castigliano’s displacement theorem after the anlysis of the stucture,which were analyzed by the use of the software MATLAB, and comfirm the validity of the model with finite element analysis software ANSYS.
