Student assignment shock response

2 maanden geleden

Enschede, Nederland DEMCON Voltijd

Wat ga je doen?

A first student internship assignment was performed where the effect of a shock on a simple cantilever leaf spring was studied by (1) pseudo velocity – stress relationship (2) Ansys SRS analysis (3) Ansys transient analysis and (4) experiment. Follow-up questions are: 

Extend the existing analyses to a construction that is closer to an actual device construction: is the “pseudo velocity – stress relationship” theory still valid? (e.g. different cross-sections and multiple materials) Comparing different shocks: can we confirm that the shock with the highest pseudo velocity gives the highest stress? And from what level is a shock severe for typical Demcon equipment? What is the effect of an initial load/deformation on the stress due to the shock? How can we perform shock analysis for multiple degree of freedom systems? (e.g. a base unit that is mounted on a trolley with a relatively low eigenfrequency)

The final goal is to find a design approach that ensures shock-resistant constructions without too much over dimensioning. 

Wat breng je mee?

The following tools are foreseen to be necessary:

Matlab + SRS tool CAD modeling package (e.g., Solidworks) FEM or multibody package (e.g., Ansys) for:  modal analysis Static structural analysis Transient structural analysis

The following knowledge is required (among others )

Successfully completed University Bachelor Mechanical Engineering or similar Can apply the tools named above Understand what is explained in the referenced article (see footnote) Has affinity with dynamics and all research aspects (literature/theory, simulations, testing)
