A New Cable-Pulley Algorithm in RFEM
Journal Title: Strojnicky casopis - Journal of Mechanical Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 66, Issue 2
Abstract
The cable-pulley system is widely used for its advantages. In this paper, application of a new algorithm for the calculation of cables on pulleys is presented. Unlike other algorithms, this algorithm enables to take the magnitude of the radius of each pulley into account. This new algorithm is implemented in the RFEM program because of its higher accuracy and efficiency. Comparison of the commonly used algorithm, which ignores pulley radius, and the new algorithm is presented.

The Assessment of the Residual Stresses Influence on Generation of the Infringement in Shape-Complex Supporting Members
The aim of the paper is to assess the effect of residual stresses on the damage of the slide bearer. To quantify the residual stresses, the drilling method using SINT MTS 3000 drilling machine was chosen. The tensometr...
Adaptive Car Following Model
The vehicle dynamics was a very lot developed in the last twenty years. There is a huge gap in the different vehicle models in this field. Researchers need accurate the car following models because of it. There are sev...
Development of Numerical Model and Comparison with the Analytical Model for Predicting the Wire Effects in Wire Electric Discharge Grinding
This paper discusses the development of a numerical model and its comparison with the analytical model to predict the wire deflection in WEDG. The movement of wire between upper and lower guides creates vibration durin...
Effect of Additives on Static Settled Concentration, pH and Viscosity of Bottom Ash-Water Suspension
In the present work, static settled concentration, pH and viscosity of bottom ash is studied with addition of additive. Sodium sulfate is used as an additive with proportion of 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6% (by weight). The solid...
Modeling of Coolant Flow Within the Spent Fuel Storage Pool of a VVER 440 Reactor
The article deals with modelling of coolant flow within the spent fuel storage pool of a VVER 440 reactor. The spent fuel storage pool is modelled in a state of standard reactor operation. The coolant heating from the...
