Elastic Perfectly Plastic

The finite element method has been used to obtain stress concentration factor data for hollow tubes with axisym-metric internal projections subjected to axial loading. A range of geometries has been considered in the investigation, and the results are complementary to previously published data. Preliminary results from an elastic-plastic analysis of a component with an internal projection are presented. Strain predictions with an elastic-perfectly-plastic material model are found to be between those estimated using linear and Neuber rules for low cycle fatigue life predictions.

The Impact

In the past, shakedown evaluation was usually based on the elastic method that the sum of the primary and secondary stress should be limited to 3Sm or the simplified elastic-plastic analysis method. The elastic method is just an approximate analysis, and the rigorous evaluation of shakedown normally requires an elastic-plastic analysis. In this paper, using an elastic perfectly plastic material model, the shakedown analysis was performed by a series of elastic-plastic analyses. Taking a shell with a nozzle subjected to parameterized temperature loads as an example, the impact of temperature change on the shakedown load was discussed and the shakedown loads of this structure at different temperature change rates were also obtained. This study can provide helpful references for engineering design.

This paper describes the results of a study of the elastic–plastic behaviour of short flat bars with projections subjected to monotonic and cyclic axial loading using finite element analysis. The results are complementary to similar results for (a) shear loading and (b) combined axial and shear loading. Six geometries are considered and elastic–plastic stress and strain data for both local and remote restraints are presented. These geometries and associated restraints result in elastic stress concentration factors in the range 1.69–4.96. A simple bilinear elastic–plastic material model is assumed and the results are normalized with respect to material properties so that they can be applied to geometrically similar components made from other materials which can be represented by the same material models.

Stress Concentration Factors

The finite element method is used to study the monotonic and cyclic elastic-plastic stress and strain characteristics of hollow tubes with axisymmetric internal projections subjected to monotonic and repeated axial loading. Two geometries having low and high elastic stress concentration factors are considered in this investigation, and the results are complementary to previously published data. For cyclic loading, three simple material behaviour models, e.g., elastic-perfectly-plastic, isotropic hardening, and kinematic hardening are assumed. All results have been normalized with respect to material properties so that they can be applied to all geometrically similar components from other materials which may be represented by the same material models. Finally, normalized maximum monotonic strain and steady state strain range, predicted in the present investigation and from previously published data, are plotted as a function of the nominal load for different material hardening assumptions and different elastic stress concentration factors. These plots can be used in the low cycle fatigue design of such geometrically similar components.

Applied Loading

This paper discusses the behaviour of hollow tubes with axisymmetric internal projections subjected to combined axial and internal pressure loading. Predictions from an extensive elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analysis are presented for a typical geometry and a range of loading combinations, using a simplified bilinear elastic-perfectly plastic material model. The axial loading case, previously analysed, is extended to cover the additional effect of internal pressure. All the predicted stress and strain data are found to depend on the applied loading conditions. The results are normalized with respect to material properties and can therefore be applied to geometrically similar components made from other materials, which can be represented by the same material models.

Shakedown Limit

In this paper the shakedown limit load is determined for a long radius 90-degree pipe bend using two different techniques. The first technique is a simplified technique which utilizes small displacement formulation and elastic-perfectly-plastic material model. The second technique is an iterative based technique which uses the same elastic-perfectly-plastic material model, but incorporates large displacement effects accounting for geometric non-linearity. Both techniques use the finite element method for analysis. The pipe bend is subjected to constant internal pressure magnitudes and cyclic bending moments. The cyclic bending loading includes three different loading patterns namely; in-plane closing, in-plane opening, and out-of-plane bending. The simplified technique determines the shakedown limit load (moment) without the need to perform full cyclic loading simulations or conventional iterative elastic techniques. Instead, the shakedown limit moment is determined by performing two analyses namely; an elastic analysis and an elastic-plastic analysis. By extracting the results of the two analyses, the shakedown limit moment is determined through the calculation of the residual stresses developed in the pipe bend. The iterative large displacement technique determines the shakedown limit moment in an iterative manner by performing a series of full elastic-plastic cyclic loading simulations. The shakedown limit moment output by the simplified technique (small displacement) is used by the iterative large displacement technique as an initial iterative value. The iterations proceed until an applied moment guarantees a structure developed residual stress, at load removal, equals or slightly less than the material yield strength. The shakedown limit moments output by both techniques are used to generate shakedown diagrams of the pipe bend for a spectrum of constant internal pressure magnitudes for the three loading patterns stated earlier. The maximum moment carrying capacity (limit moment) the pipe bend can withstand and the elastic limit are also determined and imposed on the shakedown diagram of the pipe bend. Comparison between the shakedown diagrams generated by the two techniques, for the three loading patterns, is presented.

Aluminium alloys are nonlinear metallic materials with continuous stress-strain curves that are not well represented by the simplified elastic, perfectly plastic material model used in many current design specifications. Departing from current practice, the continuous strength method (CSM) is a recently proposed design approach for non-slender aluminium alloy structures with consideration of strain hardening. The CSM is deformation based and employs a base curve to define a continuous relationship between cross-section slenderness and deformation capacity. This paper explains the background and the two key components - (1) the base curve and (2) the strain hardening material model of the continuous strength method. More than 500 test results are used to verify the continuous strength methodas an accurate and consistent design method for aluminium alloy structures.

In this paper, the effectiveness of the Modified Plate–Frame Interaction (M-PFI) model is evaluated by comparing its outcomes against those from experimental results obtained from a number of steel plate walls (SPWs) tested at different universities. As a result of the comparison, the M-PFI model was found to provide satisfactory predictions for SPW specimens constructed with steel plates welded to column and beam members. The M-PFI model was able to predict the initial stiffness, as well as to evaluate whether the boundary members of the SPW have sufficient capacity to allow for the infill plate to yield entirely. However, the model was found to underestimate the ultimate capacity of the SPW system mainly because, among other reasons, the material model used for its underlying theory is the elastic – perfectly plastic material model.
