Study on Dynamic Characteristics of Curved Bellows
곡선형 벨로우즈의 동적특성 분석
- Published : 2008.04.30
Abstract
Bellows is widely used in many industrial fields as it provides a relatively simple means of absorbing mechanical shock, vibration and thermal deformation with flexibility. In this study, the inherent dynamic characteristics of curved bellows are numerically studied according to the variation of angle, curvature and crest density, etc. For these numerical studies, a parametric finite element modelling program of curved bellows is constructed using ANSYS APDL. The validity of numerical results obtained from ANSYS software is experimentally verified using the test model made by RP machine SLA 5000.
