Strain analysis of selected torsionally flexible metal coupling units with the application of finite element method

摘要

In this article, the results of finite element analysis (FEA) of strains derived from chosen units of torsionally flexible metal coupling are presented. As the modelling and simulation tool for particular component loads, Autodesk? Inventor? Professional 2009 program has been used. The analysis of obtained results ascertained that in every investigated element the yield point of material was not exceeded. The conclusion can be drawn that the analysed construction of the torsionally flexible metal coupling prototype affirms its correctness in the durability aspect.
