Study on Random Vibration Response Analysis for the Sphere Cylinder Assembly in Aerospace Vehicle

Abstract

To assess the structural strength of spherical cylinder, the finite element model was constructed by the NX NASTRAN software. Firstly,the basic principle of random vibration response analysis was introduced, then the random vibration response analysis of the cylinder assembly was analyzed. The simulation result shows that the stress of the joint between spherical cylinder clamp and the base is larger than other areas in conditions of a given random vibration load. The spherical cylinder structure is safe and that the maximum RMS stress is about 20 MPa.
