Fatigue analysis of welded joints in a forestry machine : Utilizing the notch stress conceptNyström, Martin, Tomaz, Tainan Pantano January 2015 (has links)
Welding is one of the most applied technics in the world for joining steel. Welds are liable to the phenomenon of fatigue, which is, primarily, the formation of a crack and consequently reduction of strength due to the action of time varying loads. Fatigue is one of the main causes of failure in steel structures. The aim of this thesis is to do static and dynamic analyses of a forestry crane with the purpose of using the analyses to determine the lifetime due to fatigue of welded components. Two methods for fatigue assessment are used in this work, the Hot-Spot Method and the Notch Stress Method. The first boom, which is a key component for the crane, is analyzed in a Finite Element Method (FEM) software. The found principal stress in accordance with the notch stress method in the first boom is ±165 MPa for the analyzed load case, rendering in a stress range of 330 MPa. The fatigue strength class FAT-225 (m=3), leads to an expected number of 633000 cycles, with a probability of survival of 97,7% for this case. / Svetsning är en av de vanligaste teknikerna för sammanfogning av stål. Svetsar är känsliga för utmattning. Utmattningsfenomenet består primärt av en initial dislokation som genom tidsvarierande belastning formar en spricka som växer och därmed reducerar styrkan i konstruktionen. Utmattning är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till skador i stålkonstruktioner. Målet med detta arbete är att genomföra både statiska och dynamiska analyser av en skogsmaskins kran i avseende att bestämma utmattningslivslängden för dess svetsade konstruktioner. Två metoder för utvärdering används i detta arbete, hot-spot-metoden och notch-stress-metoden. Kranens första bom (lyftarmen) som är en huvudkomponent i kranen analyseras med hjälp av ett Finita Element program i enlighet med notch-metoden. Högsta funna spänningsvariationen i första huvudspänningsriktningen var ±165 MPa för ett av de analyserade lastfallen. Utmattningsklass FAT 225 (m=3) ger en uppskattning om utmattningslivslängd på 633000 cykler med en sannolikhet för överlevnad på 97.7% i detta fall.

Finite element modeling of welded joint using effective notch stress approachNuruzzaman, Md 24 August 2016 (has links)
Automotive structures contain hundreds of welds. Most of the time, failure occurs at the weld ends (weld toe or weld root). Thus, welds affect the structural integrity of an entire structure. Thus, the modeling of welded joints is very important from a design point of view. In this research, the primary aim is to develop a weld model to assess the structural integrity of welded joints based on stress analysis by using a finite element method (FEM) and through experimental validation. The stress distribution in welded joints mainly depends on the geometry, loading type and material properties. Therefore, it is greatly challenging to develop a weld model that can predict the behavior of stress distribution and weld stiffness in joints. There are several approaches for modeling welded structures by using FEM. However, the effective notch stress approach has been used for weld joint modeling in this research which is gaining in popularity in the automotive industry. The effective notch stress approach calculates the local stress at a notch (weld toe or root) assuming that there is linear-elastic material behavior. Parameter tuning of the weld model has been done to obtain the lowest validation error with the experimental results. The effective notch radius is chosen as the only tuning parameter in this weld model. Through this investigation, the weld model based on the effective notch stress has been experimentally validated for the first time through parameter tuning. Two different types of welded joints are investigated. Both types of joints are analyzed with a fine meshed 3D finite element model by using the effective notch stress approach. The FEM model of these two joints is validated with the experimental results. The calculated FEM results show a good agreement with the experimental results (obtained by using strain gages) for the ASTM model. This modeling technique is also validated with real world data of a bus window pillar. The model of the bus window pillar shows a close approximation with the experimental results. / October 2016

Elastoplastická analýza napětí a deformace a stanovení lomových parametrů při tahovém namáhání těles s koncentrátory napětí / Elastoplastic analysis of stress and deformation and determination of fracture parameters of bodies with stress concentrators under tensile loadingDubravec, Kristián January 2021 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is the construction of a diagram of fracture strain for high strength steel OCHN3MFA and its application for the estimation of fracture toughness of this material. The first part of the thesis contains the necessary theoretical framework for numerical modelling of tensile tests of various specimens - smooth specimen, specimen with a notch and specimen with a circumferential crack, it describes the influence of triaxiality on the fracture of bodies and the possibilities of construction of the diagram of fracture strain. Subsequently, a numerical model of these specimens is created using the finite element method (FEM). A non-linear, elastoplastic calculation is performed. Fracture is identified by means of comparing the true stress versus the strain obtained from tests with the finite element analysis results. Stress–strain states of specimens at the moment of fracture are obtained from a numerical model. A diagram of fracture strain is constructed, and it is used to estimate the fracture toughness of a cracked body. Finally, a local approach, which uses the diagram of fracture strain, and a classical approach of fracture mechanics, especially the stress intensity factor, are compared.

Using a Catenary Equation in Parametric Representation for Minimizing Stress Concentrations at Notches / Minimierung der Spannungskonzentration an Kerben mittels einer Kettenlinie in parametrischer DarstellungJakel, Roland 26 June 2015 (has links) (PDF)
Der Vortrag beschreibt, wie sich mittels Kettenlinien als Kerbgeometrie der Spannungskonzentrationsfaktor an Querschnittsübergängen auf nahezu 1 reduzieren lässt. Mittels globaler Sensitivitätsstudien in der p-FEM-Software Creo Simulate wird mithilfe eines in Creo Parametric parametrisierten CAD-Modells der Kettenlinie in Parameterdarstellung ein normiertes Kerbzahldiagramm erstellt. Dieses erlaubt die Dimensionierung einer Kerbe, d.h. die Festlegung ihrer exakten Geometrie und der damit verbundenen Kerbzahl αk ohne die weitere Verwendung eines FEM-Programmes. / The presentation describes how to reduce the stress concentration factor at cross section transitions to nearly 1 by using a catenary curve as notch geometry (catenary fillet). With help of global sensitivity studies performed in the p-FEM-code Creo Simulate, a normalized stress concentration factor diagram is drawn. Therefore, a CAD-model of the catenary curve in parametric representation was developed. The diagram created allows to dimension the notch, that means to determine its exact geometry and stress concentration factor Kt, without further usage of a FEM code.

Systematic Analysis and Comparison of Stress Minimizing Notch Shapes : Obtaining a stress concentration factor of Kt=1 without FEM-CodeCiomber, Isabelle, Jakel, Roland 08 May 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Als Stand der Technik sind einfache, kreisförmige Verrundungen zur Reduktion von Kerbspannungen an Querschnittsübergängen bekannt, für die aus Tabellenwerken / Diagrammen in der Literatur die Formzahl einfach abgelesen werden kann. Die Effizienz der Spannungsreduktion solcher Lösungen ist jedoch sehr begrenzt. Ziel der Arbeit ist es daher, dem Konstrukteur bzw. Berechnungsingenieur ein Verfahren in die Hand zu geben, mit dem er für Standardquerschnittsübergänge und Standardlastfälle "Nicht-Kreiskerben" ohne teure und zeitaufwendige FEM-Analyse einfach durch Nutzung geeigneter Formzahldiagramme auslegen kann. Dabei sind sogar Formzahlen von nahezu eins möglich, d.h., in der "Kerbe" bleibt praktisch nur noch die Nennspannung übrig.
Die Präsentation ist zweitgeteilt: Im ersten Teil werden die Arbeitsmethoden bzw. Softwarefunktionen und verwendeten Softwarewerkzeuge vorgestellt: Dies sind die Programme Creo Parametric als vollparametrisches CAD-Werkzeug und Creo Simulate als p-FEM-Programm der Parametric Technology Coprporation (PTC).
Der zweite Teil der Präsentation beschreibt den Gültigkeitsbereich sowie die untersuchten Kerbgeometrien: Die einfache kreisförmige Verrundung als Stand der Technik, die Zwei-Radien-Kerbe, die Baud-Kurve, die Methode der Zugdreiecke nach Claus Mattheck, die elliptische Kerbe sowie die konische Rundung als generalisierte elliptische Kerbe. Es wird kurz eine Bibliothek vorgestellt, mit der solche Kerben einfach ausgelegt werden können, d.h. Ihre exakte Geometrie festgelegt sowie die zugehörige Formzahl αk bestimmt werden kann. / Circular (one-radius) fillets are known as state-of-the-art for reducing notch stresses at cross section transitions. The stress concentration factor Kt of such geometries can be read out from diagrams/tables given in the literature. However, the efficiency of stress reduction of circular notches is very limited. The goal of the work therefor is to present a method for the designer/analyst how to design non-circular notches/fillets just by using suitable Kt-diagrams without time-consuming and expensive FEM analyses. Kt-numbers of nearly one are possible, that means in the "notch" just the nominal stress appears and no stress concentration takes place.
The presentation has two parts: Part one describes the working methods and software functions as well as software tools: Creo Parametric as fully-parametric CAD program and Creo Simulate as embedded p-FEM-tool from Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC) have been used.
The second part describes the range of validity and the examined notch geometries: The one-radius fillet as state-of-the-art, the two-radii filet, the Baud-curve, the method of tensile triangles from Claus Mattheck, the standard elliptical fillet and the conical round as generalized elliptical fillet. A notch layout library is shortly presented that allows to design such fillets, that means exactly determine the notch geometry and the related stress concentration factor Kt.

Posouzení životnosti svařované žebrované hřídele generátoru / Lifetime Prediction of the Welded Ribbed Generator ShaftRyšánek, Michal January 2015 (has links)
This master thesis deals primarily with the prediction of fatigue life of welded ribbed shaft. Recommendations taken from the International Institute of Welding (IIW) are used to express the stress values and the fatigue life. The stress values of examined place are expressed by approach of nominal stress, structural hot spot stress and effective notch stress. Results from stress-strain analysis are combined together with fatigue strength curves for prediction of the fatigue life. At the end of the analysis, the predicted fatigue life is compared with design life of welded ribbed shaft.

An investigation into the weld integrity of the head–to–skirt junction on tall distillation columns / L. BrinkBrink, Lize January 2010 (has links)
This study addresses the fatigue life of the head–to–skirt welds of tall distillation columns.
Fatigue tests were done on two types of weld geometries which approximate the head–toskirt
configurations. From the fatigue tests it was determined that the fatigue life of the
experimental samples can be substantially improved by applying weld build–up between
the head and the skirt.
The expected fatigue life of the test samples was determined by way of calculation
employing the so called Nominal–Stress–Approach, the Effective–Notch–Stress–Approach
and the Stress–Life–Approach.
For both the Nominal–Stress–Approach and the Effective–Notch–Stress–Approach the
predicted fatigue life was found to be overly conservative compared to the experimental
results. The Stress–Life–Approach predicted the fatigue life to within a factor of 1.3 for
both the geometries under investigation when displacements due to welding are taken
into account. If displacements due to welding is omitted this factor is increased, for the
geometry without weld build–up, to 2. For the geometry with weld build–up the factor
remains 1.3. / Thesis (M.Ing. (Mechanical Engineering))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2011.
