Spontaneous Change

It is supposed that a region within an isotropic elastic solid undergoes a spontaneous change of form which, if the surrounding material were absent, would be some prescribed homogeneous deformation. Because of the presence of the surrounding material stresses will be present both inside and outside the region. The resulting elastic field may be found very simply with the help of a sequence of imaginary cutting, straining and welding operations. In particular, if the region is an ellipsoid the strain inside it is uniform and may be expressed in terms of tabu­lated elliptic integrals. In this case a further problem may be solved. An ellipsoidal region in an infinite medium has elastic constants different from those of the rest of the material; how does the presence of this inhomogeneity disturb an applied stress-field uniform at large distances? It is shown that to answer several questions of physical or engineering interest it is necessary to know only the relatively simple elastic field inside the ellipsoid.

Component Parallel

A method has been formulated for the determination of thermal stresses in materials which harden in the presence of an exothermic chemical reaction. Hardening is described by the transformation of the material from an inviscid liquid-like state into an elastic solid, where intermediate states consist of a mixture of the two, in a ratio which is determined by the degree of chemical reaction. The method is illustrated in terms of an infinite slab cast between two rigid mold surfaces. It is found that the stress component normal to the slab surfaces vanishes in the residual state, so that removal of the slab from the mold leaves the remaining residual stress unchanged. On the other hand, the residual stress component parallel to the slab surfaces does not vanish. Its distribution is described as a function of the parameters of the hardening process.

Presented in this paper is a solution in series form for the stresses in an infinite elastic solid which contains two rigid spherical inclusions of the same size. The stress field at infinity is assumed to be either hydrostatic tension or uniaxial tension in the direction of the common axis of the inclusions. The solution is based upon the Papkovich-Boussinesq displacement-function approach and makes use of the spherical dipolar harmonics developed by Sternberg and Sadowsky. The problem is closely related to, but turns out to be much more involved than, the corresponding problem of two spherical cavities solved by these authors.

Methods Of Measurement

Abstract The theory of the deformation of a porous elastic solid containing a compressible fluid has been established by Biot. In this paper, methods of measurement are described for the determination of the elastic coefficients of the theory. The physical interpretation of the coefficients in various alternate forms is also discussed. Any combination of measurements which is sufficient to fix the properties of the system may be used to determine the coefficients. For an isotropic system, in which there are four coefficients, the four measurements of shear modulus, jacketed and unjacketed compressibility, and coefficient of fluid content, together with a measurement of porosity appear to be the most convenient. The porosity is not required if the variables and coefficients are expressed in the proper way. The coefficient of fluid content is a measure of the volume of fluid entering the pores of a solid sample during an unjacketed compressibility test. The stress-strain relations may be expressed in terms of the stresses and strains produced during the various measurements, to give four expressions relating the measured coefficients to the original coefficients of the consolidation theory. The same method is easily extended to cases of anisotropy. The theory is directly applicable to linear systems but also may be applied to incremental variations in nonlinear systems provided the stresses are defined properly.

Stress Behaviour

A stress distribution in vicinity of a tip of polygon-like inclusion exhibits a singular stress behaviour. Singular stresses at the tip can be a reason for a crack initiation in composite materials. Knowledge of stress field is necessary condition for reliable assessment of such composites. A stress field near the general singular stress concentrator can be analytically described by means of Muskhelishvili plane elasticity based on complex variable functions. Parameters necessary for the description are the exponents of singularity and Generalized Stress Intensity Factors (GSIFs). The stress field in the closest vicinity of the SMI tip is thus characterized by 1 or 2 singular exponents (1 - λ) where, 0<Re (λ)<1, and corresponding GSIFs that follow from numerical solution. In order to describe stress filed further away from the SMI tip, the non-singular exponents for which 1<Re (λ), and factors corresponding to these non-singular exponents have to be taken into account. Analytical-numerical procedure of determination of stress distribution around a tip of sharp material inclusion is presented. Parameters entering to the procedure are varied and tuned. Thus recommendations are stated in order to gain reliable values of stresses and displacements.

The Impact

The main target of a research programme “experimental and numerical analyses on the residual stress field in the area of circumferential welds in austenitic pipe welds”, sponsored by Technische Vereinigung der Großkraftwerksbetreiber e. V. (VGB) and carried out at MPA Stuttgart, was the validation of the numerical calculation for the quantitative determination of residual stress fields in austenitic circumferential pipe welds. In addition, the influence of operational stresses as well as the impact of the pressure test on the residual stress state had to be examined. By using the TIG orbital welding technique, circumferential welds (Material X 10 CrNiNb 18 9 (1.4550, corresponding to TP 347) were produced (geometric dimensions 255.4 mm I.D. × 8.8 mm wall) with welding boundary conditions and weld parameters (number of weld layers and weld built-up, seam volume, heat input) which are representative for pipings in power plants. Deformation and temperature measurements accompanying the welding, as well as the experimentally determined (X-ray diffraction) welding residual stress distribution, served as the basis for the verification of numeric temperature and residual stress field calculations. The material model on which the calculations were founded was developed by experimental weld simulations in the thermo-mechanical test rig GLEEBLE 2000 for the determination of the material behaviour at different temperatures and elasto-plastic deformation. The numeric calculations were carried out with the Finite Element program ABAQUS. The comparison of the calculation results with the experimental findings confirms the proven validation of the developed numerical calculation models for the quantitative determination of residual stresses in austenitic circumferential pipings. The investigation gives a well-founded insight into the complex thermo-mechanical processes during welding, not known to this extent from literature previously.
