Static and Dynamic Characteristics Analysis on Frame Beam Reinforced with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Based on ANSYS by YU Wenhuan, MI Kaihua, ZHAO Ping

“…To study the static and dynamic characteristics on frame beam reinforced with carbon fiber reinforced plastic,a frame beam for example,the three-dimensional finite element model was established by the FEM soft-ware ANSYS,when the frame beam in unreinforced,ordinary carbon fiber reinforced and prestressed carbon fiber reinforced has respectively carried on the static analysis,modal analysis and time history analysis.Research showed that carbon fiber reinforced plastics could significantly improve the ultimate bearing capacity of the frame beam,but could be reduced to a corresponding the ductility of the frame beam;prestressed carbon fiber reinforced had great effects on the natural frequency of vibration of frame beam and greatly improved the rigidity of frame beam;ordinary carbon fiber reinforcement could hardly improve the seismic performance of frame beam,whereas the prestressed carbon fiber reinforced plastics could significantly improve the level of frame beam of horizontal seismic performance,the seismic design criterion of “strong column and weak beam” should be followed in design.…”

Design of Quick Query System in Gear Detection Parameter based on Delphi by Zhong Qi, Han Lixi, LI Junwen, Zhong Peipei

“…Gears are important parts in mechanical transmission and are widely used.When the gear design is completed，the gear detection parameters need to be determined according to accuracy grade and usage requirements.In general，the look-up table method is used，but according to the latest standards，some parameters need to be calculated.So，it can be seen that the query and calculation of gear parameters are very cumbersome，which brings inconvenience to the design work.Using the Delphi platform to develop a system for quickly querying different types of gear detection parameters，the system provides parameter query for two major types of gears，including cylindrical gears and bevel gears.Through inputting the basic design parameters，the parameters can be automatically and quickly completed.The result can be displayed in the system interface or formed in Excel file to designers.It can greatly improve the accuracy and design efficiency of the gear detection parameter query.Through many engineering design practices，the system is reliable and efficient，and is of great significance to the system design of other related complex computational problems in mechanical design and manufacturing.…”
