Simulation And Experiment

Thermal-Elastic-Plastic finite element analysis is introduced to study the deformation of laser welding of thin plate with consideration of varying material parameters. From aspects of numerical simulation and experiment, three welding cases are investigated: (1) the butt welding with constraint clamp, (2) the free bead welding, (3) the bead welding with constraint clamp. At last, the deformation configurations of welding plate under different constraint cases are characterized, and the behaviors of welding deformation are summarized.

Abstract It is a challenging task in the design of automobile tires to predict lifetime and performance on the basis of numerical simulations. Several factors have to be taken into account to correctly estimate the aging behavior. This paper focuses on oxygen reaction processes which, apart from mechanical and thermal aspects, effect the tire durability. The material parameters needed to describe the temperature-dependent oxygen diffusion and reaction processes are derived by means of the time–temperature–superposition principle from modulus profiling tests. These experiments are designed to examine the diffusion-limited oxidation (DLO) effect which occurs when accelerated aging tests are performed. For the cord-reinforced rubber composites, homogenization techniques are adopted to obtain effective material parameters (diffusivities and reaction constants). The selection and arrangement of rubber components influence the temperature distribution and the oxygen penetration depth which impact tire durability. The goal of this paper is to establish a finite element analysis based criterion to predict lifetime with respect to oxidative aging. The finite element analysis is carried out in three stages. First the heat generation rate distribution is calculated using a viscoelastic material model. Then the temperature distribution can be determined. In the third step we evaluate the oxygen distribution or rather the oxygen consumption rate, which is a measure for the tire lifetime. Thus, the aging behavior of different kinds of tires can be compared. Numerical examples show how diffusivities, reaction coefficients, and temperature influence the durability of different tire parts. It is found that due to the DLO effect, some interior parts may age slower even if the temperature is increased.

Strain Data

A project has been conducted to verify a finite element analysis procedure for studying the nonlinear behavior of 90°, stainless steel, 4 inch schedule 10, butt welding elbows. Two displacement controlled monotonic in-plane tests were conducted, one closing and one opening, and the loads, displacements, and strains at several locations were recorded. Stacked 90° tee rosette gages were used in both tests because of their ability to measure strain over a small area. ANSYS shell element 181 was used in the FEA reconciliations. The FEA models incorporated detailed geometric measurements of the specimens, including the welds, and material stress-strain data obtained from the attached straight piping. Initially, a mesh consisting of sixteen elements arrayed in 8 rings was used to analyze the elbow. The load-displacement correlation was quite good using this mesh, but the strain reconciliation was not. Analysis of the FEA results indicated that the axial and hoop strain gradients across the mid-section of the elbow were very high. In order to generate better strain correlations, the elbow mesh was refined in the mid-section of the elbow to include 48 elements per ring and an additional six rings, effectively increasing the element density by nine times. Using the refined mesh produced much better correlations with the strain data.

This paper discusses the behaviour of hollow tubes with axisymmetric internal projections subjected to combined axial and internal pressure loading. Predictions from an extensive elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analysis are presented for a typical geometry and a range of loading combinations, using a simplified bilinear elastic-perfectly plastic material model. The axial loading case, previously analysed, is extended to cover the additional effect of internal pressure. All the predicted stress and strain data are found to depend on the applied loading conditions. The results are normalized with respect to material properties and can therefore be applied to geometrically similar components made from other materials, which can be represented by the same material models.

Stress analysis of the bender components in the design of the begel fabricator machine was carried out using FEA (Finite Element Analysis) with three variations of the constituent material parameters, namely 6061 aluminum, mild steel, and cast iron with a modulus of elasticity of 68.9 GPa, 220 GPa, 120.5 GPa, respectively. The test is carried out by a loading parameter 2520 MPa and fixed constraint. The maximum von misses stress and displacement obtained for each material parameter components using aluminum, mild steel, and cast iron are 17.78 MPa; 0.00765, 17.49 MPa; 0.00229, 17.62 MPa; 0.00427 respectively.
