In the framework of this study, a hybrid sequential thermo-mechanical finite element analysis of T-joint fillet welding is performed. In the thermal analysis, the element birth and death technique is applied to simulate a weld filler deposition, while a mechanical analysis is performed simultaneously to avoid possible problems due to large displacements induced by large strains. The calculated plate deflections are compared with the experimental measurements while the obtained residual stresses are compared with the analytical solution from the literature. The simulated results demonstrate that the proposed method can be effectively used to predict the residual stresses and distortions induced by the T-joint welding of two plates.

Brazed Joint

Ceramic vacuum feedthroughs are an inevitable requirement for any vacuum system which requires electrical feedlines to be inserted into the vacuum environment. These feedthroughs consist of metal-ceramic-metal transition and, therefore, require the brazing process as a joining technique. This process allows joining two base materials, i.e., Alumina and Kovar, for this case, which manifests different thermo-mechanical response. The difference between the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of these materials causes the development of residual stresses during the cooling phase of the brazing process. Such residual stresses, if not addressed properly, can lead to the failure in the brazed joint even before the design limits. The purpose of this study is to assess these stresses by performing the thermo-mechanical analysis of the brazing process of ceramic-metal assembly through finite element analysis (FEA) technique. This study includes the assessment of non-linear behavior (due to temperature-dependent material properties) of Alumina and Kovar assembly. Further, X-ray diffraction (XRD) based residual stress measurement technique has been utilized to validate the FEA results. The paper shall present the FEA methodology (model, boundary condition, and results) followed by the experimental results and their comparison.

A feasibility study was conducted to determine the use of polyphthalamide/glass-fiber and polyphthalamide/glass-fiber/polytetrafluoroethylene-based composites as substitutes for aluminum and steel, respectively, in the production of motorcycle oil pump parts (housing, shaft/inner gerotor and outer gerotor). New and used (80,000 km) oil pumps were subjected to performance tests, whose results indicated that the pressure and temperature of the used pump reached a maximum of 1.8 bar and 93℃, respectively. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the materials are stable at the maximum operating temperature, which is 20℃ lower than the minimum glass transition temperature obtained by dynamic mechanical analysis for both materials at the analyzed frequencies (defined after calculations based on rotations in neutral, medium and high gear). The pressure value was multiplied by a safety factor of at least 1.6 (i.e., 3 bar), which was used as input for a finite element analysis of the parts, as well as the elasticity modulus at glass transition temperatures obtained by dynamic mechanical analysis. The finite element analysis indicated that the von Mises stresses to which the composite parts were subjected are 7 to 50 times lower than those the materials can withstand. The results suggest that it is feasible to manufacture motorcycle oil pump parts with these composites.

Viscoelastic Effects

Dimensional control can be a major concern in the processing of composite structures. Compared to numerical models based on finite element methods, the analytical method can provide a faster prediction of process-induced residual stresses and deformations with a certain level of accuracy. It can explain the underlying mechanisms. In this paper, an improved analytical solution is proposed to consider thermo-viscoelastic effects on residual stresses and deformations of flat composite laminates during curing. First, an incremental differential equation is derived to describe the viscoelastic behavior of composite materials during curing. Afterward, the analytical solution is developed to solve the differential equation by assuming the solution at the current time, which is a linear combination of the corresponding Laplace equation solutions of all time. Moreover, the analytical solution is extended to investigate cure behavior of multilayer composite laminates during manufacturing. Good agreement between the analytical solution results and the experimental and finite element analysis (FEA) results validates the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method. Furthermore, the mechanism generating residual stresses and deformations for unsymmetrical composite laminates is investigated based on the proposed analytical solution.

A three-dimensional coupled fluid-thermal finite element simulation model has been developed to provide analyzing distribution of velocity and temperature of nine-spacer nozzle by using FEM simulation of FLOTRAN module in ANSYS 6.0. To explore fluid-thermal analysis of the flow fields of nine-spacer nozzle of aluminum roll-casting, stricter analysis of postprocessing result was conducted by MATLAB. It was concluded that flow field of nine-spacer nozzle was able to match cooling capacity of cast rollers, but nine-spacer nozzle’s geometric flaw didn’t suit for working in the case of speed increasing of the drawing-sheet and thickness reducing of the aluminium sheet during roll casting.
