Since the electric motor of pure electric vehicle replaced the engine, the "masking effect" disappears, and the problem of vibration and noise of the transmission becomes prominent. This is generated during the gear meshing and is transmitted to the housing through the shaft and bearing. Thereby, radiation noise of the housing are generated. The prediction and analysis...

In the case of study on the seismic behavior of tanks, one of the most important subjects is selection of convective and impulsive frequencies for storage tanks. These two frequencies are defined by Housner. The major utility of these frequencies is for Rayleigh damping which is a must for time history analysis. API 650, EUROCODE 8 have suggested some analytical solutions for finding convective...

In this paper‎, ‎the static bending‎, ‎free vibration‎, ‎and dynamic response of functionally graded‎ ‎piezoelectric beams have been carried out by finite element method‎‎under different sets of mechanical‎, ‎thermal‎, ‎and electrical‎ ‎loadings‎. ‎The beam with functionally graded piezoelectric material‎ ‎(FGPM) is assumed to be graded across the thickness with a simple‎ ‎power law distributio...

Residual Stress measurement has gained interests among researchers for many years due to its great influence on the structural integrity. Slitting method is one of the destructive techniques that relies on the introduction of an increasing cut to a part containing residual stresses. Similar to all other mechanical strain relief techniques, slitting also suffers from its shortcomings during the ...

Numerical modeling of machining processes is of significance in the parametric analysis and optimization of their performance. In this paper, a finite element-based model of abrasive waterjet (AWJ) cutting of a ductile material is presented with the help of an explicit, nonlinear finite element method. In this model, both solid-solid interaction and fluid-structure interaction are considered. T...

This study deals with the dynamic behavior of the kavar concrete Abstract face rockfill damwhich is the first dam of this type to be const ructed in a highly active seismic prone area,situated in the state of Fars southern part of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The finite elementmethod was used as a tool to carry out this study. The finite element discretization was carriedout under plane strain...
