Structural Behavior of Flexible and Semi-Rigid Beam-Column Joint Connections by FEM
Abstract: This study investigates the structural behavior of flexible and semi-rigid beam-column joint connections in cold-formed steel (CFS) structures, focusing on the use of Finite Element Modeling (FEM) to simulate their performance under various loading conditions. Traditional analysis methods often oversimplify beam-column connections, treating them as either perfectly rigid or fully flexible, which does not accurately capture real-world joint behavior. In reality, many beam-column joints exhibit semi-rigid characteristics, where the stiffness …

Finite Element Modelling of Contact Stresses in Helical Gear Systems
Abstract: Helical gears are widely used in modern power‐transmission systems because of their high load‐carrying capacity, smooth meshing action, and increased overlapping of gear teeth. However, the design of helical gear pairs is constrained by contact stresses generated at the mating tooth surfaces, which can lead to surface fatigue (pitting), micro-cracking, and ultimately gear failure. Traditional analytical methods, such as those of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) or International Organization …

Wave plate; what is the angle of its central curved segment which provides biomechanically optimal stability for femoral shaft fracture?:A 3-D Finite Analysis
Abstract: Even though intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fracture is the standard surgical treatment as it is in tibial fracture, plate fixation might be a choice when the fracture involves open growth plate, patients are of shorter stature or have narrow canals. In these cases, fixation techniques with plate and screws, for example, percutaneous procedures involving wave plate, are useful thanks to minimal invasion and preservation of biological environment surrounding the …
