Cap screws and machine screws

Cap screws and machine screws are similar in shape, differing only in their relative sizes. Machine screws are usually smaller in size, compared to cap screws. These are used for fastening two parts, one with clearance hole and the other with tapped hole. The clearance of the unthreaded hole need not be shown on the drawing as its presence is obvious. Figure 5.24 shows different types of cap and machine screws, with proportions marked Cap screws are produced in finish form and are used on machines where accuracy and appearance are important. As cap screws are inferior to studs, they are used only on machines requiring few adjustments and are not suitable where frequent removal is necessary. These are produced in different diameters, upto a maximum of 100 mm and lengths 250 mm. Machine screws are produced with a naturally bright finish and are not heat treated. They are particularly adopted for screwing into thin materials and the smaller ones are threaded throughout the length. They are used in fire-arms, jigs, fixture and dies. They are produced in different diameters upto a maximum of 20 mm and lengths upto 50 mm.

Spur Gear Set - Stress Evaluation
Semih Tinmaz

FEM

Beginner
Spur gears have their teeth cut parallel to the axis of the shaft on which the gears are mounted, transmitting power between the parallel shafts. To maintain a constant angular velocity ratio, two meshing gears must satisfy a fundamental law of gearing: the shape of the teeth must be such that the common normal at the point of contact between two teeth must always pass through a fixed point on the line of centers. The contact point is called the pitch point. The goal is to assess the maximum stress during the transmission of the torque. By engineering judgement, the maximum stress occurs either at a contact point or at the root of a tooth due to the bending of the tooth. Since there is no restriction of deformation in the depth direction, i.e.,the gears are free to expand (or contract) in the depth direction, so it is modeled as a plane stress problem.

Side Pole Test - High Speed Impact - Explicit Dynamics - ANSYS Workbench

FEM

Intermediate
Explicit dynamics is a time integration method used to perform dynamic simulations when speed is important. Explicit dynamics account for quickly changing conditions or discontinuous events, such as free falls, high-speed impacts, and applied loads. Because these “nonlinear dynamics” are integrated into the simulation, explicit dynamics is the preferred choice for simulating highly transient physical phenomena. Some side impacts involve a vehicle travelling sideways into rigid roadside objects such as trees or poles. Often this is the result of a loss of control on the part of the driver, owing to speeding, misjudgement of a corner or because of a skid in slippery conditions.

Topology Optimization of Triangular Bracket - ANSYS Workbench

Intermediate
Topology optimization is a mathematical method which spatially optimizes the distribution of material within a defined domain, by fulfilling given constraints previously established and minimizing a predefined cost function. Main aim of this tutorial is optimizing and decreasing the material density of the triangular bracket as 50% by topology optimization.

Planar Seal Simulation with Hyperelastic Experimental Data (Mooney-Rivlin Hyperelastic Model)

Intermediate
The seal which is used in the door of applications from automotive industries. The seal is a long strip of rubber and it will be modeled as a plane strain problem. A series of material tests has been conducted, including the uni-axial tensile test, the bi-axial tensile test and the shear test. A series of trials of data fitting shows that, for these material testing data, the two-parameter "Mooney-Rivlin Hyperelastic Model" fits the data better than other models. It is decided to use Two-Parameter Mooney-Rivlin Model. The unit system used in this tutorial is "U.S. Customary (in-lbm-lbf-s)".
