Implementation Of Fortran Finite Element Analysis Source Code With Application : Particle Deposition In A 90 Degree Duct Bend, Pantaleo Loiacono

Theses

Two FORTRAN 77 finite element analysis source codes, by 1.N. Reddy, were input into a PC, debugged, executed, and tested successfully. These programs are available to students interested in implementing a good finite element analysis source code on a PC or on a workstation in one or two dimensions. The programs can solve problems relating to heat transfer, stresses, beam analysis, frames, trusses, plane elasticity, plate bending, and laminar viscous incompressible fluids with various node and element combinations.

The two-dimensional program was used to obtain the velocity distributions in a 90 degree duct bend with incoming and exiting fully developed …

Statistical And Finite Element Analysis Of The Effects Of Random Input Parameters On The Mechanical Characteristics Of Sheetmetal Forming Processes Using Quadrature Method, Yu Quan

Theses

In this thesis, the computer aided finite element analysis is implemented in the analysis of sheetmetal forming process. To rationalize the experimentation and analysis, the statistical method is introduced to study the variability of sheetmetal deformation process and final shape with respect to the variation of different parameters.

In Chapter 2, the basic characteristics and considerations of deep drawing operation is described with emphasis on the study of geometrical and physical variables of the forming process.

Chapter 3 discussed the three phases which are encountered in the computer aided finite element analysis. As a typical representative of professional finite element …
