Finite Element Simulation of Cylinder using Composite Material - A Review

Various machines and machine members are running under different dynamic working conditions. The vibration produced under dynamic conditions affect many important design parameters such as strength, production costs, productivity. Under this title I studied, the comparative mode shape analysis of a hydraulic cylinder subjected to dynamic loads. Noise and vibration are major problem in many applications this problem becomes more significant in applications with higher operating speeds. Computer aided engineering (CAE) procedures are used to analyse the dynamic response of the cylinder. The finite element methods used in the analysis are applied by a computer aided design and analysis software ANSYS14.5. The goal of modal analysis is to determine the natural mode shapes and frequencies of the cylinder and comparatively analyze frequency of the cylinder made by different composite materials.
