The finite element model of the roof of aluminum high-speed train was established, double ellipsoid heat source was employed, and heat elastic-plastic theory was used to simulate welding residual stress of the component under different welding sequence based on the finite element analysis software SYSWELD. The distribution law of welding residual stress was obtained. And the effects of the welding sequence on the value and distribution of residual stress was analyzed. The numerical results showed that the simulation data agree well with experimental test data. The maximum residual stress appears in the weld seam and nearby. The residual stress value decreases far away from the welding center. Welding sequence has a significant impact on the final welding residual stress when welding the roof of aluminum body. The side whose residual stress needs to be controlled should be welded first.

Welding residual stress is one of the main factors that affect the strength and life of components. In order to explore the effect on residual stress of welding line by laser shock processing, finite element analysis software ANSYS is used to simulate the welding process, to calculate the distribution of welding residual stress field. On this basis, then AYSYS/LS-DYNA is used to simulate the laser shock processing on welding line. Simulation results show that residual stress distributions of weld region, heat-affected region and matrix by laser shock processing are clearly improved, and the tensile stress of weld region effectively reduce or eliminate. The simulation results and experimental results are generally consistent, it offer reasons for parameter optimization of welding and laser shock processing by finite element analysis software.

Laboratory fatigue life results are summarized from several test series of high-strength steel cannon breech closure assemblies pressurized by rapid application of hydraulic oil. The tests were performed to determine safe fatigue lives of high-pressure components at the breech end of the cannon and breech assembly. Careful reanalysis of the fatigue life tests provides data for stress and fatigue life models for breech components, over the following ranges of key parameters: 380–745 MPa cyclic internal pressure; 100–160 mm bore diameter cannon pressure vessels; 1040–1170 MPa yield strength A723 steel; no residual stress, shot peen residual stress, overload residual stress. Modeling of applied and residual stresses at the location of the fatigue failure site is performed by elastic-plastic finite element analysis using ABAQUS and by solid mechanics analysis. Shot peen and overload residual stresses are modeled by superposing typical or calculated residual stress distributions on the applied stresses. Overload residual stresses are obtained directly from the finite element model of the breech, with the breech overload applied to the model in the same way as with actual components. Modeling of the fatigue life of the components is based on the fatigue intensity factor concept of Underwood and Parker, a fracture mechanics description of life that accounts for residual stresses, material yield strength and initial defect size. The fatigue life model describes six test conditions in a stress versus life plot with an R2 correlation of 0.94, and shows significantly lower correlation when known variations in yield strength, stress concentration factor, or residual stress are not included in the model input, thus demonstrating the model sensitivity to these variables.

Maximum Residual Stress

Residual stress is inevitable during welding, which will greatly affect the reliability of the structure. The purpose of this paper was to study the residual stress of the hoop structure caused by the cooling shrinkage of the weld when the outer cylinder was wrapped and welded under the condition of the existing inner cylinder. In this paper, the “method of killing activating elements” of ANSYS was used to simulate the three-dimensional finite element of the hoop structure. In the case of applying interlayer friction, the welding-forming process and welding circumferential residual stress of the hoop structure were analyzed. The blind hole method was used to test the residual stress distribution of the hoop structure, and the test results were compared with the finite element simulation results to verify the reliability of the simulation calculation method and the reliability of the calculation results. Then, the influence factors of the maximum welding residual stress of the hoop structure were studied. The results show that the maximum residual stress of the outer plate surface of the hoop structure decreases with the increase of the welding energy, the thickness of the laminate, the width of the weld seam, the welding speed, and the radius of the container. Based on the results of numerical simulation, the ternary first-order equations of the maximum residual stress of the hoop structure with respect to the welding speed, the thickness of the laminate, and the width of the weld seam were established. Then, the optimal welding parameters were obtained by optimizing the equations, which provided an important basis for the safe use and optimal design of the welding hoop structure.

Finite element simulation is an efficient method for studying factors affecting weld-induced residual stress distributions. In this paper, a validated three-dimensional finite element model consisting of sequentially coupled thermal and structural analyses was developed. Three possible symmetrical welding sequences, i.e. one-welder, two-welder and four-welder sequence, which were perceived to generate the least distortion in actual welding circumstances, were proposed and their influences on the residual stress fields in a thick-walled tee joint were investigated. Appropriate conclusions and recommendations regarding welding sequences are presented.

In order to study the distribution of the stress field in the high-speed intermittent cutting process, finite element model of high-speed intermittent cutting is established. Exponential material model of the constitutive equation and adaptive grid technology are applied in the finite element analysis software AdvantEdge. The material processing is simulated under certain cutting conditions with FEM ( Finite Element Method ) and the distribution of cutting force, stress field, and temperature field are received. A periodic variation to the cutting force and temperature is showed in the simulation of high-speed intermittent cutting. Highest value of the milling temperature appears in front contacting area of the knife -the chip.and maximum stress occurs at the tip of tool or the vicinity of the main cutting edge. The analysis of stress and strain fields in-depth is of great significance to improve tool design and durability of tool.

Objective Tension band plating has recently gained widespread acceptance as a method of correcting angular limb deformities in skeletally immature patients. We examined the role of biomechanics in procedural failure and devised a new method of reducing the rate of implant failure. Methods In the biomechanical model, afterload (static or cyclic) was applied to each specimen. The residual stress of the screw combined with different screw sizes and configurations were measured and compared by X-ray diffraction. With regard to static load and similar conditions, the stress distribution was analyzed according to a three-dimensional finite element model. Results The residual stress was close to zero in the static tension group, whereas it was very high in the cyclic load group. The residual stress of screws was significantly lower in the convergent group and parallel group than in the divergent group. The finite element model showed similar results. Conclusions In both the finite element analysis and biomechanical tests, the maximum stress of the screw was concentrated at the position where the screws enter the cortex. Cyclic loading is the primary cause of implant failure.

Postweld Heat

To simulate preheating and postweld heat treatment of Q345 steel pipe welding, the finite element model was established. The welding process was simulated by method of the ANSYS element birth and death technique. In this paper, to obtain the distribution of the temperature field and stress field in different situations, preheating processes with two different values of temperature and postweld heat treatment process were simulated respectively. The results show that preheating can homogenize residual stress distribution of the weldment and decrease the residual stress. The heat treatment reduces the residual stress in inner and outer walls by 24% and 70% respectively and the stress distribution is more even and stress concentration is reduced.
