@ARTICLE{Kaliszewski_Marcin_Alternative_2016, author={Kaliszewski, Marcin and Mazuro, Paweł}, volume={vol. 16}, number={No 4}, journal={Teka Commission of Motorization and Power Industry in Agriculture}, howpublished={online}, year={2016}, publisher={The Lublin Branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences}, abstract={An alternative FEM algorithm of fi nding piston ring pressure distribution to a contact simulation is introduced. The method is basing on an analytical determining of required nodal displacement boundary conditions. Its several confi gurations are tested using APDL and compared to a no-separation contact simulation of a simple 2D fi nite element model of a two-stroke piston ring made of Titanium alloy. Each of the methods tested in the paper brings displacement result and Huber-Misses equivalent stresses close to each other. However, only one of those brings resulting contact pressure close to a no-separation contact simulation. Nonetheless, the obtained confi guration occurred to be less computationally effi cient than no- separation contact simulation performed in an ANSYS software.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Alternative FEM Algorithm of Determining Piston Ring Pressure Distribution on a Cylinder to a Contact Simulation}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/108396/PDF-MASTER/4_Kaliszewski.pdf}, keywords={Finite Element Method, alternative algorithm to contact simulation, pressure distribution, APDL, two-stroke piston ring}, }
