By terms of the numerical modeling of ABAQUS software, the analysis of the stress concentration factor (SCF) of tubular T-joints subjected to axial load is analyzed in this paper. The magnitude and the distribution of the SCF are also obtained. Through the finite element analysis of 816 models, the effect of geometrical parameters on the value and distribution of the SCF is investigated. Then based on these results, the parametric equations of the maximal SCF and SCF distribution for T-joints subjected to axial load are presented. Error analysis of these parametric equations is also carried out.

Connection Type

A pinned connection or lug joint is a common connection type used both in civil engineering and mechanical engineering. In civil engineering, this connection is used for assembling truss members, and in mechanical engineering, this connection type is widely used in machine elements. The standard design is with a circular pin. The stress concentration factor size depends on the tolerances between pin and assembled parts and also by the three-dimensional design. Relatively different maximum stress values are seen depending on the modelling being done in two dimension (with assumptions) or in full three dimension. The focus in the present article is on the two-dimensional design and minimizing the maximum stress. It is shown that not only the contact geometry is important for reducing the stress, the external design is equally important. By finite element analysis including contact modelling, it is shown that reduction in the stress concentration factor of up to 18% is possible.

Local Dissolution

Finite element analysis is adopted to study the stress concentration of pit area under tension-torsion loading. The stress concentration factors under regular evolution and irregular evolution of pits are investigated by conducting a series of three-dimensional semi-elliptical pitted models. Based on the finite element analysis, it can be concluded that pit aspect ratio (a/2c) is a significant parameter affecting stress concentration factor (SCF) for regular evolution pits. Pits, having higher aspect ratio, are very dangerous form and can cause significant reduction in the load carrying capacity. When local dissolution occurs in the pitting area, SCF will have a sharp increase, it is more probable for a crack to initiate from these areas compared with pits for regular evolution. Furthermore, local dissolution coefficient is proposed to study effect of local dissolution within the pit on SCF.

In this study, three-dimensional mechanical model of the perforated casing was simplified as flat plate mechanical model. The theoretical equation for the calculation of collapsing strength factor for a perforated casing under squeeze was derived as per elasticity theory. Three-dimensional FEM model of a perforated casing was built using ANSYS and analysis was performed. The stress concentration factor (SCF) was discussed for perforated casing in this paper and the effects of aperture on SCFs were analyzed in detail.

The numerical finite element method was used to identify the stress concentration factor of the structure of foamed polymer material under tensile loading by constant strain and depending on cell form, orientation, and geometrical parameters. It was determined that the value of the stress concentration factor depends upon both the form and the orientation of the cell with respect to the loading direction. It was also determined that the higher ratio of the thickness to the length of the edge of the cell is, the higher the stress concentration factor is. The low stress concentration factor is when the angle between edges is approximately 90° and the rounding radius of this angle is from 0.25R to 0.4R (R is maximal rounding radius), angle between cell edges, and the direction of loading is equal to 45°.

Corrosion Pits

Corrosion-induced pits will disturb the original stress distribution of casing and appear local high stress area. Through 3-D finite element analysis on casing with spherical and cylindrical corrosion cavity, the stress concentration degree and the influences of cavity shape, size and orifice diameter on stress concentration factor are determined and analyzed. The results show that the depth and shape of corrosion cavities are major factors impacting the stress concentration factor. For the casing with corrosion pits, the smaller orifice diameter, the more obvious influence of hemisphere effect on stress concentration factor. With the transition from shallow-spherical cavity to exact hemispherical cavity or from exact hemispherical cavity to deep-spherical cavity or from exact hemispherical cavity to cylindrical cavity, the changes of stress concentration factor show different characteristics.
