The document discusses finite element analysis (FEA) conducted on a hydraulic cylinder using ANSYS. It contains the following key points: 1. A hydraulic cylinder was modeled and meshed in ANSYS, and structural loads and boundary conditions were applied representing a pressure of 20MPa. 2. The FEA results showed maximum deformation of 0.017mm in the center of the cylinder. Equivalent stress was highest on the inner surface at 162MPa and lowest at the corners at 51.92MPa. 3. The minimum safety factor of 1.08 was found at the end regions, indicating the hydraulic cylinder design is feasible for its intended application.
