Analysis Projects
Developing the finite element models and analyzing large high-pressure hydraulic cylinder systems. Geometry of the piston and cylinder systems were were contained in several geometric modeling data-files which were downloaded and brought up in our geometric modeling system. The finite element models are being developed in ANSYS and the analyses will consist of a pressure-force and buckling load cases.
Developed the finite element model of, and analyzed a 300 gallon in-ground spherical tank. Loading consisted of overburden soil pressure, active soil pressure, and a tire loading. The deformation and stress results were assembled into an Engineering Report and stamped for the State of Washington.
Developed the finite element model of, and analyzed a 500 gallon in-ground spherical tank. Loading consisted of overburden soil pressure, active soil pressure, and a tire loading. The deformation and stress results were assembled into an Engineering Report and stamped for the State of Washington.
CSEI is analyzing the finite element model of a chip assembly for an electronics firm, based upon geometric files supplied via the internet. Several thermal-stress and deformation analyses will be performed to verify the design of the assembly. The results will be assembled into an Engineering Report and transmitted to the client via the internet.
CSEI is analyzing the transient thermal-stresses induced in wheel hubs and rotors due to a series of partial stops (snubs), hot stops, and brake recovery stops. Convection and conduction heat transfer effects are included in the analysis. Temperature loading taken from the critical points of the transient analysis are applied to the stress analysis model to determine the thermal stresses generated in the hub and rotor.
CSEI is in the process of analyzing several Class 8 truck hubs (front and drive). The finite element models were developed by the customer using ProEngineer along with ProMesh. The models were transmitted to CSEI over the internet, and subsequently modified by CSEI. The stress analyses were performed using the ANSYS finite element analysis program. The stress results were transmitted back to the customer over the internet for their evaluation.
CSEI is analyzing wheel brake drums and brake rotors for a Class 8 truck. A wheel hub, the brake drum or brake rotor, and wheel section were developed by the customer and an FEA model was provided to CSEI. The FEA model was modified and the assembly connected together, a stress analysis was performed and the results electronically provided back to the customer via the internet.
