Element Simulation

Finite element simulation of stable fatigue crack growth using critical crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) was done. In the preliminary finite element simulation without crack growth, the critical CTOD was determined by monitoring the ratio between the displacement increments at the nodes above the crack tip and behind the crack tip in the neighborhood of the crack tip. The critical CTOD was determined as the vertical displacement at the node on the crack surface just behind the crack tip at the maximum ratio. In the main finite element simulation with crack growth, the crack growth rate with respect to the effective stress intensity factor range considering crack closure yielded more consistent result. The exponents m in the Paris law were determined.

The 3d model of miter gate has been set up based on skeleton model of Pro/E, and it has been imported into ANSYS Workbench module for static structure analysis and modal analysis. In the process of finite element simulation, the rotational constraints has been imposed on the top and bottom pivot according to the actual operation situation of the miter gate, and obtain the first several order frequencies and corresponding modal vibration mode of the miter gate, which can show the hydrodynamic vibration stress and strain distribution. According to the results of the finite element simulation analysis, the prototype vibration test of the miter gate has been done. The test results show that the vibration amplitude and the stress and strain distribution of each part of the miter gate are corresponding to the vibration test.

In this paper, the structural strain of the beam shear stress sensor is optimized, and the average strain of the strain sensor is simulated by Ansys Workbench. Firstly, the mathematic model of the beam sensor is established, and the stress and strain of the model are analyzed theoretically. Secondly, the finite element modeling of the sensor is carried out, and the finite element simulation of Ansys Workbench is carried out. The key dimensions of strain measurement are studied by parameter driven. Then the simulation results show that the effect of the production patch error on the output is quantitatively analyzed. Finally, the feasibility of mathematical model theory and finite element simulation is verified by calibration experiment.

Simulation Results

I-II mixed mode fracture under two kinds of load manners was carried out, and it was also simulated by the ANSYS, and the test results and the simulation results were compared and analyzed, and the reasonableness of the model built and the effectiveness of test were verified. The failure process of fracture under the loading could be judged through the development of the crack tip combined with the stress nephogram and strain nephogram when cracks initiation at crack tip, and it provided the basis for the crack damage judgment.

Crack Tip Stress

When a notched structure is loaded, its behaviour is not only affected by the material propertiesbut also by the geometry (of both the structure and the defect) and loading condition, alternatively termedas constraint condition. Therefore, the relation between the failure behaviour of a small scale fracturemechanics test and a full scale structure needs to be elucidated.In an attempt to understand and describe such relationships, the crack tip stress fields are analysed bymeans of finite element simulations and compared for several test specimen geometries. A reference forcomparison is the crack tip stress field obtained from a high constraint reference geometry, further called amodified boundary layer model.First, this article provides some theoretical background on the modified boundary layer model. Second, thedevelopment of a 2D model is outlined in detail, focussing on the mesh design in the vicinity of the crack tipand the applied boundary conditions. Afterwards, an analytical and numerical validation is provided, basedon the level of the applied load and, on the other hand, on the magnitude of the crack tip stress fields.Finally, this validated model is used for the comparison of several constraint parameters. This comparisonindicates a weak influence of the T-stress on the Q-parameter for positive T-stresses. In contrast, negativeT-stresses result in more pronounced negative Q-values.

Element Simulation

In this study, we introduce an approach which simulates crack propagation under mixedmode loading condition. In comparison with the conventional element removing method which eliminates any element that satisfies a prescribed failure criterion near the crack tip, the present approach selects a set of elements ahead of the crack tip on the crack growth direction and removes them one by one when the element meets a prescribed failure criterion. Compact tension shear (CTS) specimens of type 304 stainless steel were used for failure testing. Finite element simulation has been carried out to simulate crack profiles and compared with observed ones. Results showed the proposed element removing algorithm is useful for crack growth simulation under mixed mode loading condition. The experimentally measured crack growth profile is in an agreement with the predicted ones.
