Abstract :
This paper presents the mode shapes using finite element technique and compares the analytical results with available experimental data. Based on the results of the finite element analysis some areas of stress concentrations were determined and modifications were made to the PDC (polycrystalline diamond compact) mold. A displacement plot and several stress contour plots are presented.
