Random Vibration Analysis for Airborne Equipment Structural Safety

  Airborne equipment experiences random vibrations that change at every measurement interval due to various conditions during flight operation — such as motors, noise, turbulence, and projectile launches — and structural safety and fatigue durability evaluations are required for these conditions. In this example, we will explore methods for verifying random vibration analysis of a condition monitoring system.

Why Transient Response Analysis Matters for Automated Transfer Equipment

Transfer equipment repeatedly cycles through stop, acceleration, travel, and deceleration conditions depending on its operating conditions. Just as a bus undergoes sudden braking, transfer equipment also generates vibration due to inertial forces in the structure caused by abrupt changes in velocity. Let us explore together how this can be evaluated numerically.

Analyzing Automotive Component: Nonlinear Analysis of Door Belt

Introduction:


In the realm of automotive components, the door belt plays a crucial role in ensuring the flexibility of door glass operation, preventing glass damage, and obstructing the ingress of dust and foreign particles. In this blog post, we delve into the functionality and analysis of the door belt, particularly focusing on its nonlinear characteristics.


 

Analysis Methodology:


To conduct a comprehensive analysis, we utilized the 3D CAD geometry of the door belt and employed pre-processing capabilities of midas NFX to define material properties, load conditions, and boundary constraints. Paying special attention to the anticipated rubber deformation, we optimized mesh quality using manual mesh refinement features.


 

Nonlinear Static Analysis:

 

Emulating real-world scenarios, we performed nonlinear static analysis to scrutinize the compressive load and deformation patterns induced when compressing the model with glass, akin to experimental conditions. This nonlinear static analysis encompasses geometric, material, and contact nonlinearities, ensuring a holistic evaluation.


 

Material Modeling:


In defining the rubber material, we leveraged a hyperelastic model along with Mooney-Rivilin constants. Should material property constants be unknown, experimental data can be used to derive these values. The NFX platform facilitates this process through the "Evaluate Experiment data" feature.
