FEA for Dynamic Problems

Finite element analysis or FEA is a computational tool that evaluates the approximate solution for a particular engineering problem. The tools provided by FEA help to evaluate the solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs) computationally following a numerical approach. Solutions of the PDEs can also be performed by following traditional algebraic approaches, but when the problem gets towards the complex side, it becomes very tedious and almost impossible to arrive at the solutions. In such cases, the FEA fulfills the purpose by evaluating the equations following multiple time steps and iterations. The more the time steps and iterations, the more accurate the solution. The solution plotted by FEA analysis and mathematical approaches varies asymptotically.

2. What is the mass M that must be suspended at the left to hold the system in equilibrium in the position shown?
In a system, an open cylindrical steel tank, which has a density of 7820 kg/m^3, has an inside diameter of 4.0 m and an internal height of 5.0 m. From being initially empty, exactly 2,582.13 slugs of water were poured into the tank. Next, another liquid mass, equivalent to 1,626.742 slugs, was poured inside the tank. After settling, this fluid occupied three-tenths of the total internal height of the container. Then, mercury was poured into the tank. After the fluid has settled, the height of the mercury layer was measured to be one-fifth of a meter. Finally, oil, with S.G.=0.80, was poured to fill the remaining empty volume of the tank. 1) Draw the vertical profile of the tank and label properly all the liquid layers, indicating properly the value of specific gravity used for each liquid layer. 2) What is the total mass of the system if the tank itself has a volume of 2.29 m^3? 3)Solve for the hydrostatic gage pressure at the liquid surface, at the interfaces between any two…
Oil is filled within a tall cylindrical tank. A flat disk with a height of 1 cm and with a diameter of 5 cm is placed into the oil. There occurs a narrow spacing of 0.1 mm between the disk and the tank wall. Due to the forces acting on the disk, it moves downward, and after some time, the speed of the disk reaches a terminal velocity. Beyond this moment, measurements reveal that the disk moves 30 cm in 4 seconds. If the oil density is 600 kg/m3and the specific gravity of the disk is 1.5, determine the oil’s viscosity.
