“…The general procedure of life prediction from point of view of fatigue damage was based: determination of the most significant working regimes and factors of typical working conditions from point of view of structure loads and their following activities [5][6][7], identification of carrying structure critical parts and determination of their working loads, analysis of choice material properties and estimate of effects of different types of notches, connections and nonlinearities in examined points of structure [8,9] and application of suitable hypothesis of fatigue damage cumulation and quantification of predicted fatigue life of selected parts of carrying structure [10,11].…”
Section: Fatigue Life Prediction Of Crane Load-bearing Structurementioning
Abstract. Problems of fatigue life prediction of materials and structures are discussed in the paper. Service loading is assumed as a continuous loading process with possible discontinuous events, which are caused by various operating conditions. The damage in a material is due to a cumulative degradation process. The damaging process is then represented either by rain-flow matrices or by a fatigue damage function which is derived using some hypothesis of a fatigue failure criterion. Presented theoretical procedure enables a very effective estimation of a service life and/or reliable evaluation of residual life of any structures under various types of loading and environmental conditions. This approach creates a good basis for powerful expert systems in structural and mechanical engineering. The aim of the paper is to present briefly some results of analysis of load-bearing steel structure loads of special railway crane PKP 25/20i which was utilized in some specific ad relatively hard operating conditions. Virtual models of the structure were being used in an analysis of acting working dynamics loads influence to be able to forecast fatigue life of load-bearing of the crane jib.

“…Material data are one of the most important inputs in numerical simulation [6][7][8]. Precise results can be obtained only when precise material data in combination with proper material model are used [9][10][11].…”
Abstract. This paper presents numerical simulation of blanking process for coldrolled steel sheet metal. The problem was modeled using axial symmetry in commercial finite element software ADINA. Data obtained by experimental measurement were used to create multi-linear plastic material model for simulation. History of blanking force vs. tool displacement was obtained.
“…We can theoretically predict the movement of the wheelset on a track by means of the wheelset and track geometric characteristics analysis [22]. Geometric characteristics define the rail/wheel profiles contact couple geometrical relationship.…”
Section: Computer Analysis Of the Bogie Framementioning
Abstract. This paper presents results of selected load cases for the modified freight wagon bogie frame. It comprises of two main parts. The first part is addressed to the introduction of a modified freight wagon bogie. There are described conditions for rail vehicles approval and mainly load cases which every bogie must meet for commissioning. The next part deals with computer modelling and analyses of a frame of this modified freight wagon bogie. It was analysed using the FE method and calculations were focused on the assessment of stresses of the frame structure under exceptional load. Calculation conditions were based on valid standards.
