This paper considers a modeling for the MIMO magnetic bearing system. The rotor is flexible and has a complex shape. To obtain the nominal plant transfer functions, we perform a numerical analysis by using the finite element method(F.E.M.) for the rotor's dynamics, and make a nominal model by reducing the modes from the results. And, we have experimented on the frequency response by a closed-loop identification method, and compared it with the simulation's result on the closed-loop control system.

This article proposes analytical solutions for sound radiation from radial vibration modes of a thick annular disk. Structural eigensolutions are calculated using the transfer matrix method. The far-field sound pressure distribution is obtained using two alternate methods. In the first method, pressure is calculated using the Rayleigh integral technique. The second method treats sound radiating radial surfaces as cylindrical radiators of finite length. The Sinc function approach is employed for calculations. Acoustic powers and radiation efficiencies of radial modes are also determined from the far-field sound pressure calculations. Analytical predictions match well with measured data as well as computational results from a finite element code in terms of structural eigensolutions and from a boundary element code in terms of sound pressure, directivity etc.

Coupled lateral vibrations of shafting is analyzed by the Finite Element Method. In the problem formulation axial force, elastic foundation effects and rotary inertia effects are taken into account. A computer program is developed to calculate natural frequencies of the shafting, and used to calculate natural frequencies of the experimental model shafting, which the author used for the paper[11]. The results show good agreement with the measured values. The results are also compared with those of the Transfer Matrix Method. From the comparison it is found that both results agree each other.

A finite element model for the process of squeeze casting for metal matrix composites (MMCs) in cylindrical mold is developed. The fluid flow and the heat transfer are the fundamental phenomena in the squeeze casing process. To describe heat transfer with solidification of molten aluminum, the energy equation in terms of temperature and enthalpy are applied to two dimensional axisymmetric model which is similar to the experimental system. And one dimensional flow model is employed to simulate the transient metal flow. The direct iteration technique was used to solve the resulting nonlinear algebraic equations. A computer program is developed to calculate the enthalpy, temperature and fluid velocity. Cooling curves and temperature distribution during infiltration and solidification are calculated for pure aluminum. The temperature is measured and recorded experimentally. At two points of the perform inside and one point of the mold outside, thermocouple wire are installed. The time-temperature data are compared with the calculated cooling curves. The experimental results show that the finite element model can estimate the solidification time and predict the cooling process.

The partial differential equations for a coil spring derived from Timoshenko beam theory and Frenet formulae. Dynamic stiffness matrix of a coil spring composed of a circular wire is assembled by using dispersion relationship, waves and natural frequencies. Natural frequencies are obtained from maxima in the determinant of inverse of a dynamic stiffness matrix with appropriate boundary conditions. The results of the dynamic stiffness method are compared with those of transfer matrix method, finite element method and test.

A method to predict the creep behavior of fiber-reinforced ceramic composites at high temperatures was suggested based on finite element modeling using constituent creep equations of fiber and matrix and showed good agreement with the experimental results. The effects of matrix creep behavior, fiber volume fraction, and residual stresses on the composite creep behavior were also investigated. The results showed that the primary behavior of composites was greatly affected by that of matrix but post-primary behavior was governed by fiber creep characteristics. The increase of fiber volume fraction from 15 vol% to 30 vol% caused the 50% and 40% decrease of steady-state creep rates and total creep strains at $1200^{\circ}C$, 180MPa, respectively. Feasible compressive residual stresses in the matrix caused by different thermal expansion coefficients between the fiber and the matrix could significantly reduce total creep strains of the composite. The creep deformation mechanism in the fiber-reinforced ceramic composites could be explained by the stress transfer and redistribution in the fiber and matrix due to different creep characteristics of its constituents.

The state-of-art of curved box girder bridge with cross section design has advanced in various area. In these days, several analytical techniques for behaviors of curved box girder bridges cross section are available to engineers. The transfer matrix method is extensively used for the structural analysis because its merit in the theoretical background and applicability. The technique is attractive for implementation on a numerical solution by means of a computer program coded in Fortran language with a few elements. To demonstrate this fact, it gives good results which compare well with finite element method. Therefore, this paper proposed the static analysis method of curved box bridge with cross section by transfer matrix method based on pure-torsional theory and the optimal span ratio/variable cross section ratio of 3 span continuous curved box girder bridge.

A finite element model is developed for the process of squeeze casting of metal matrix composites (MMCs) in cylindrical molds. The fluid flow and the heat transit. are fundamental phenomena in squeeze casting. To describe heat transfer in the solidification of molten aluminum, the energy equation is written in terms of temperature and enthalpy are applied in an axisymmetric model which is similar to the experimental system. A one dimensional flow model simulates the transient metal flow. A direct iteration technique was used to solve the resulting nonlinear algebraic equations, using a computer program to calculate the enthalpy, temperature and fluid velocity. The cooling curves and temperature distribution during infiltration and solidification were calculated fer pure aluminum. Experimentally, the temperature was measured and recorded using thermocouple wire. The measured time-temperature data were compared with the calculated cooling curves. The resulting agreement shows that the finite element model can accurately estimate the solidification time and predict the cooling process.

This paper investigates the noise transmission performance of industrial mufflers widely used in ships based on the CAE modeling and simulation. Since the industrial mufflers have very complicated internal structures, the conventional Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) is of limited use. The CAE modeling and simulation is therefore required to incorporate commercial softwares: CATIA for geometry modeling, MSC/PATRAN for FE meshing and LMS/SYSNOISE for analysis. Main sources of difficulties in this study are led by complicated arrangement of reactive elements, perforated walls and absorption materials. The reactive elements and absorbent materials are modeled by applying boundary conditions given by impedance. The perforated walls are modeled by applying the transfer impedance on the duplicated node mesh. The CAE approach presented in this paper is verified by comparing with the theoretical solution of a concentric-tube resonator and is applied for industrial mufflers.
