Limited by the deficiency of the finite element method (FEM) to deal with infinite domain problems, the traditional FEM rolling model is not suitable enough to study the effect of the complex internal stress of the incoming strip on hot rolling deformation. To solve this problem, the finite element and infinite element (FE-IE) coupling method is adopted, where the finite element is for the roll...

The objective of this paper is to provide the theoretical background and illustrative examples for elastic buckling analysis of cold-formed steel members with general boundary conditions as implemented in the forthcoming update to CUFSM. CUFSM is an open source finite strip elastic stability analysis program freely distributed by the senior author. Although the finite strip method presents a ge...

the problem of several finite moving cracks in a functionally graded material is solved by dislocation technique under the condition of anti-plane deformation. by using the fourier transform the stress fields are obtained for a functionallygraded strip containing a screw dislocation. the stress components reveal the familiar cauchy singularity at thelocation of dislocation. the solution is empl...

The spline finite strip method (S.F.S.M.) for buckling analysis of plates and plate assemblies subjected to longitudinal compression and bending, transverse compression as well as shear is described. The method allows for the boundary conditions. Local buckling coefficients of plates with different boundary conditions under compression, bending and shear are calculated. Convergence studies with...

The objective of this paper is to summarize recent research and experiences with computational modeling of cold-formed steel conducted within the author’s research group at Johns Hopkins University. This admittedly biased view of computational modeling focuses primarily on the use of the semi-analytical finite strip method and collapse modeling using shell finite elements. Issues addressed incl...

In this paper we have analysed and designed a rectangular microstrip antenna. We analyzed micro strip antenna in IE3D by finite moment of method. In this paper we have compare and analyzed the micro strip antenna in infinite ground plane having dimension length, L = 700mil & width, W=800mil to the micro strip antenna in finite ground plane having dimension length, L = 1468mil & width, W=1568mil...

Strip profile control in cold rolling of thin strip is a difficult and challenge problem found in industry. Currently using the novel type of strip rolling mill, such as the work roll crossing and shifting is the one of the main methods to control the strip profile quality in cold rolling. In this paper, 3-D finite element simulation models of the thin strip profile in cold rolling for the work...
