The Given

It is generally considered within analysis the residual stresses that unloading occurs on elastic law. For large initial loads, some plasticity theories believe that during unloading secondary plastic deformation can occur. The distinctive work provides a new theorem of unloading, which takes into account irreversible changes in the mechanical characteristics of the material under load. There is an example of the analysis of residual stresses corresponding to the given theorem.

General Method

Formulae have been obtained that are necessary to calculate cumulative deformation in the process of straitened extrusion in the central area closed to the working end of the counterpunch. The general method of plastic flow proposed by A. L. Vorontsov was used. The obtained formulae allow one to determine the deformed state of a billet in any point of the given area. The formulae should be used to take into account the strengthening of the extruded material.

Fea Model

Mechanical dents often occur in transmission pipelines, and are recognized as one of major threats to pipeline integrity because of the potential fatigue failure due to cyclic pressures. With matured in-line-inspection (ILI) technology, mechanical dents can be identified from the ILI runs. Based on ILI measured dent profiles, finite element analysis (FEA) is commonly used to simulate stresses and strains in a dent, and to predict fatigue life of the dented pipeline. However, the dent profile defined by ILI data is a purely geometric shape without residual stresses nor plastic deformation history, and is different from its actual dent that contains residual stresses/strains due to dent creation and re-rounding. As a result, the FEA results of an ILI dent may not represent those of the actual dent, and may lead to inaccurate or incorrect results. To investigate the effect of residual stress or plastic deformation history on mechanics responses and fatigue life of an actual dent, three dent models are considered in this paper: (a) a true dent with residual stresses and dent formation history, (b) a purely geometric dent having the true dent profile with all stress/strain history removed from it, and (c) a purely geometric dent having an ILI defined dent profile with all stress/strain history removed from it. Using a three-dimensional FEA model, those three dents are simulated in the elastic-plastic conditions. The FEA results showed that the two geometric dents determine significantly different stresses and strains in comparison to those in the true dent, and overpredict the fatigue life or burst pressure of the true dent. On this basis, suggestions are made on how to use the ILI data to predict the dent fatigue life.

Compressive Residual Stresses

This investigation examines the effects of different finishing processes on the fatigue life of premachined holes in Assab 760 steel plates. The finishing processes studied were reaming, ballizing, and emery polishing. A general decrease in fatigue life with increase in surface roughness is observed for all the processes employed. In comparing the different processes, for a constant surface roughness, polishing is generally found to give the longest fatigue life while ballizing, in spite of the greater compressive residual stresses induced on the surface of the finished hole, the shortest. The surprising phenomenon was found to be attributed to the amount of plastic deformation occurred before fatigue loading. For Assab 760 steel, a prestrain in the radial direction of less than about 2.5 percent appeared to reduce the fatigue resistance of the material.

Bolted pipe flange connections with metallic gaskets have been used under higher pressure as well as higher temperature. However, a few researches on the mechanical characteristics in connections with metallic gaskets have been carried out. It is necessary to examine the mechanical characteristics such as the contact gasket stress distributions which govern the sealing performance, the deformation of the metallic gaskets, changes in axial bolt forces and the hub stress under higher pressure and temperature. In the present paper, the objectives are to examine the changes in axial bolt forces, the hub stress and the contact gasket stress distributions and the sealing performance of the pipe flange connections with metallic flat gaskets. Firstly, the mechanical characteristics of the connections under higher pressure are analyzed using FEA. Then, experiments were carried out to measure the load factor, the hub stress and the leak rate (the sealing performance). The relationship between the average contact gasket stress and the leak rate was measured using platen device at room temperature. The FEA results are fairly coincided with the experimental results. It is shown that the leak rate decreases as the contact gasket stress increases and when the plastic deformation of gaskets occurs, the sealing performance increases. The leak rate was measured in the range of 10−4∼10−7 [Pa·m3/s]. It is found that the sealing performance increases as the gasket width increase in the elastic deformation range while it is independent of the gasket width when the plastic deformation occurs. The effect of temperature on the mechanical characteristics of the connection is also examined. The FEA results are in a fairly good agreement with the experimental results. It is found that the sealing performance increases as the temperature increases. In addition, a method how to determine the bolt preload for increasing the sealing performance is proposed.

The technology of electron-beam welding (EBW) of structures of large thickness made of titanium alloy Ti–6Al–4V has been developed. A complex of metallographic studies of welded samples has been carried out. Tests to determine the mechanical characteristics of repair welded joints, that these joints made by EBW are equal in strength to the base material. The analysis of the level of residual stresses in various parts of the welded joint after repeated repair passes has been carried out. It was found that the subsequent vacuum annealing reduces the level of residual stresses in welded joints to 50 %. The analysis of the elemental composition showed that the elemental composition of the samples from the center of the weld to the base metal practically does not change for welding with the number of repeated passes up to 3.

Elastic Strains

Residual stresses generated by macroscopic inhomogeneous plastic deformation are predicted by an explicit finite element (FE) technique. The numerical predictions are evaluated by characterizing the residual elastic strains by neutron diffraction using two different ( hkl) reflections. Intergranular residual elastic strains between subsets of grains are predicted numerically and verified by neutron diffraction. Subsequently, the measured residual strain profiles in the test samples are modified by the intergranular strains and compared to the engineering predictions of the FE technique. Results compare well and verify the capability of the numerical technique as well as the possibilities of experimental validation using neutron diffraction. The presented experimental and numerical approach will subsequently be utilized for the evaluation of more complicated plastic deformation processes resembling forming operations.

This paper describes a study of aluminum gas cylinders used in underwater manned vehicles. A determination was made of the relative increase in one cycle burst pressure and fatigue life of an existing aluminum gas cylinder when the sidewall was reinforced with fiberglass overwrap and prestressed by over pressurization. Detailed finite-element stress analyses were conducted to determine the operating stresses and also the residual stresses at the end cap-to-cylinder transition section which were a result of plastic deformation during proof testing. Calculated residual stresses were found to be consistent with experimental measurements. It was determined that the filament reinforcement both increased the vessel burst pressure and increased the vessel fatigue life through favorable prestress effects. Results of vessel fatigue and burst tests are presented and are compared with the predicted performance characteristics.

Fatigue Life Analysis

Reinforced s-shaped bellows, which can withstand high pressure, is a kind of typical reinforced metal bellows. The reinforced s-shaped bellows mainly uses the hydroforming process, and the forming process is a severe plastic deformation process. The hydroforming process and its effects on the fatigue life of reinforced s-shaped bellows were discussed in the present study. Different levels of plastic strain and wall thickness thinning were detected in the hydroforming process. The maximum plastic strain can reached 32%, while the maximum wall thickness thinning ratio is 20%, which occurs on the wave peak. Mechanical characteristics of reinforced s-shaped bellows were discussed considering the effects of hydroforming process. The maximum stress appears on the upper and lower ends, which is the weak part of the structure. Fatigue life of the reinforced s-shaped bellows was analyzed based on the modified Manson-Coffin method. Mechanical properties of related materials, which can be more accurate consideration the effects of hydroforming process, were tested under the pre-plastic deformation. Fatigue life analysis of reinforced s-shaped bellows was carried out and the effects of hydroforming process were discussed. The hydroforming process will lead to a decline in fatigue life, which needs to be considered well in the structural design and analysis.
