In this study, effects of cross section, thickness, taper angle, number and radius of indentations (as design variables) on the beam's energy absorption capability during crashes are investigated.
To calculate the light scattering signal as a function of nanosheet length, the square sheets were approximated as thin circular disks of equivalent cross section, thickness, and uniform dielectric constant.
In this sense, bending testing presents a higher degree of complexity introduced by the variation of the strain through the cross-section thickness.
Moreover, geometric parameters, e.g., cross-section, thickness, and reinforcement ribs suggest an improvement of structural impact resistance to comply with the bumper beam product design specification (PDS).
However, this may not be the same case if the cross-section thickness is small as compared to the thickness of the modified region.
Based on the analytical model, a parametric study is conducted on the effects of the coefficient of friction and the material properties on the distribution of cross-section thickness in the hydroformed tubes.
This paper investigates the effect of cross-section thickness, flat length and curvature of end parts, on the load capacity of fixed ended LDSS (Lean Duplex Stainless Steel) flat oval stub columns, using the commercial finite element software, Abaqus.
Loops have been observed in sand-cast material in a variety of tempers under tension or compression, and in high-pressure die-cast material with different cross-section thickness tested in tension.
Several approaches exist for calculating the torsional compliance of rectangular cross-section beams, but most depend on the relative magnitude of the cross-section thickness and width, which might be changing during the design phase (especially for design optimization) or is variant for variable cross-section beams such as circular flexure hinges and tapered bars.
Granules were fixed in 4% (w/v) paraformaldehyde in phosphate buffered saline (PBS; 130 mmol l−1 sodium chloride and 10 mmol l−1 sodium phosphate [pH 7.2]) at 4°C for 6 h, and cross-sections (thickness, 16 μm; ∅, 0.5 1.5 mm) were prepared as described previously (Sekiguchi et al. 1999).
It is seen that when the effect of rotary inertia is neglected significant errors incur for some boundary conditions, cross-section thicknesses and mode numbers.
