Numerical simulation for the axisymmetric body with contractive and dilative periodic motion is carried out. The present analysis shows that a propulsive force can be obtained in highly viscous fluid by the contractive and dilative motion of axisymmetric body. An axisymmetric code is developed with unstructured grid system for the simulation of complicated motion and geometry. It is validated by comparing with the results of Stokes approximation with the problem of uniform flow past a sphere in low Reynolds number($R_n$ = 1). The validated code is applied to the simulation of contractive and dilative periodic motion of body whose results are quantitatively compared with the two dimensional case. The simulation is extended to the analysis of waving surface with projecting part for finding out the difference of hydrodynamics performance according to variation of waving surface configuration. The present study will be the basic research for the development of the propulsor of an axisymmetric micro-hydro-machine.

This paper introduces an analysis of the non-axisymmetric mode due to in-plane vibration of an annular type piezoelectric actuator using FEM(Finite Element Method). The actuator is used as stator of ultrasonec motor. The freqrency charecterisrics and non-axisymmetric mode of the annular piezoelectric acruator are considered at a steady-state condition. The non-axisymmetric mode is occured by two sinusodial voltage sources with $\pi$/2 phase difference on the time domain. The resonant frequency of non-axisymmetric of non-axisymmetric mode is 60.358 kHz and 59.880 kHz for calculation and measurement, respectivly. The error was 0.8% between calculation and measurement. The revolution of the non-axisymmetric mode for actuator is analized at a period of exciting voltage sources using annimation. It is confirmed that the actuator has an usefulness as the stator of ultrasonic motor and the preposed method has a properity.

In this paper, the computational algorithm for free vibration analysis of an axisymmetric cylindrical shell is formulated by the Sylvester-transfer stiffness coefficient method (S-TSCM) which combines the Sylvester's inertia theorem and the transfer stiffness coefficient method. After the computational programs for obtaining the natural frequencies and natural modes of the axisymmetric cylindrical shell are made by the S-TSCM and the finite element method (FEM), the computational results which are natural frequencies, natural modes, and computational times by both methods are compared. From the computational results, we can confirm that S-TSCM has the reliability in the free vibration analysis of the axisymmetric cylindrical shell and is superior to FEM in the viewpoint of computational times.

A study of free vibration of axisymmetric circular plates based on Mindlin theory using a pseudospectral method is presented. The analysis is based on Chebyshev polynomials that are widely used in the fluid mechanics research community. Clamped, simply supported and flee boundary conditions are considered, and numerical results are presented for various thickness-to-radius ratios.

The purpose of this paper is to determine a two dimensional axisymmetric model through a comparative study between a three dimensional and an axisymmetric finite element analysis of the reactor coolant piping nozzle subject to internal pressure. The finite element analysis results show that the stress adopting the axisymmetric model with the radius of equivalent spherical vessel are well agree with that adopting the three dimensional model. The the radii of equivalent spherical vessel are 3.5 times and 7.3 times of the radius of the reactor coolant piping for the safety injection nozzle and for the residual heat removal nozzle, respectively.

Limit analysis is based on the duality theorem which equates the least upper bound to the greatest lower bound. In this study, limit analysis of axisymmetric forming problem with workhardening materials is formulated by minimizing the upper bound functional and finite element program is developed for forward estrusion. Limit loads, velocity and flow line fields are directly obtained under various process conditions and deformation characteristics such as strains, strain rates and grid distortion are obtained from the optimum velocity components by numerical calculation. The experimental observation was carried out for extrusion and compared with computed results. The good agreement between theoretical and experimental results is shown that the developed programming is very effective for the analysis of axisymmetric extrusion.

A series of parametric study was performed for the investigation on the influence of analysis parameters to the solution behavior in the elastic-plastic-static analysis of several sheet metal forming processes, such as deflection by a point force under plane strain and axisymmetric conditions, plane strain bending by a punch, axisymmetric stretching by a punch, axisymmetric bulging by hydraulic pressure, and axisymmetric deep drawing by a punch. The parameters considered are kind of element, number of elements, integration scheme for elemental equation and friction coefficient. Results obtained for different selections of those parameters were compared with each other, experimental measurements and analytical solution.

Various finite elements have been studied and developed to analyze a variety of structures in the finite element method(FEM). The transfer stiffness coefficient method(TSCM) is an effective algorithm for structural analysis but the structures which can be applied were limited. In this paper, a computational algorithm for the structural analysis of axisymmetric conical shells under axisymmetric loading is formulated using the finite element-transfer stiffness coefficient method(FE-TSCM). The basic concept of FE-TSCM is the combination of the modeling technique of FEM and the transfer technique of TSCM. The FE-TSCM has all the advantages of both FEM and TSCM. After carrying out the structural analysis of axisymmetric conical shells using FEM, FE-TSCM, and analytical method we compare the computational results of FE-TSCM with those of the other methods in terms of computational accuracy.
