The Finite Element Analysis

Fibrous composites are finding more and more applications in aerospace, automotive, and naval industries. They have high stiffness and strength to weight ratio and good rating in regards to life time fatigue. Investigating mechanical behavior under dynamic loads to replace this material is very important. In the present article, investigate Fatigue of Unidirectional Fibrous Composites by using finite element analysis. So, to achieve this purpose Firstly, modeling fiber and matrix in separate case and simulated semi actual conditions, attained S-N curve of fiber and matrix and after that by using micromechanical model of combination fiber and matrix can approach S-N curve of Unidirectional Fibrous Composites. Finally, Comparisons of the finite element analysis of Ansys and the experimental predictions indicate based on three point bending fatigue testing that the results are satisfactorily in good agreement with each other which approves the power law assumption in the model.

This paper details the fabrication and flexural testing of sandwich structure with Aluminium honeycomb core with Aluminium face skins. The material for the face skin is aluminium 1100 and for the core is Aluminium AA8011. The cell size obtained by fabrication is 7mm. The specimen is prepared and tested as per the ASTM standard C393/C393M-11 on a three-point bending test to obtain the ultimate core shear strength and the face skin strength. Finite element analysis is also carried out to validate the experimental test.

AbstractThe molecular chains of a highly oriented polymer lie in the same direction. A highly oriented polymer is an engineering material with a high strength-to-weight ratio and favorable mechanical properties. Such an orthotropic material has biaxially arranged molecular chains that resist stress in the tensile direction, giving it a high commercial value. In this investigation, finite element analysis (FEA) was utilized to elucidate the deformation and failure of a highly oriented polymer. Based on the principles of material mechanics and using the FEA software, Abaqus, a solid model of an I-beam was constructed, and the lengths of this beam were set based on their heights. Three-point bending tests were performed to simulate the properties of the orthotropic highly oriented polymer, yielding results that reveal both tension failure and shear failure. The aspect ratio that most favored the manufacture of an I-beam from highly oriented polymers was obtained; based on this ratio, a die drawing mold can be developed in the future.

Local Wall Thinning

Fracture behaviors of pipes with local wall thinning are very important for the integrity of power plant piping system. In this study, monotonic bending tests without internal pressure are conducted on 1.91-inch diameter Schedule 80 STS370 full-scale carbon steel pipe specimens. Fracture strengths of locally wall thinned pipes were calculated by elasto-plastic analysis using finite element method. The elasto-plastic analysis was performed by FE code ANSYS. We simulated various types of local wall thinning that can be occurred at pipe surface due to coolant flow. Locally wall thinned shapes were machined to be different in size along the circumferential or axial direction of straight pipes. We investigated fracture strengths and failure modes of locally wall thinned pipes by four-point bending test. From the test results, failure modes could be divided three types, ovalization, local buckling and crack initiation. And, the allowable limit of pipes with local wall thinning was investigated. In addition, we compared the simulated results by finite element analysis with experimental data. The failure mode, fracture strength and fracture behavior obtained from the tests showed well agreement with analytic results.
