In this paper, a plate containing a central hole was used to simulate gas turbine blade with cooling hole. Numerical calculations based on crystal plasticity theory have been performed to study the elastic-plastic stress field near the hole under tension. Two crystallographic orientations [001] and [111] were considered. The distributions of resolved shear stresses and strains of the octahedral slip systems {110}<112> were calculated. The results show that the crystallographic orientation has remarkable influence on both von Mises stress and resolved shear stress distributions. The resolved shear stress distributions around the hole are different between the two orientations, which lead to the different activated slip systems. So the deformed shape of the hole in [001] orientation differs from that in [111] orientation.

AbstractAs literature implies, daily activities of total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients may include movements prone to implant-implant impingement. Thus, high shear stresses may be induced at the acetabular implant-bone interface, increasing the risk of implant loosening. The aim of the current study is to determine whether or not impingement events may pose an actual risk to acetabular periprosthetic bone. An existing experimental workflow was augmented to cover complete three-dimensional strain gage measurement. von Mises and shear stresses were calculated from 1620 measured strain values, collected around a hemispherical cup implant at 2.5 mm interface distance during worst-case impingement loading. A shear stress criterion for acetabular periprosthetic bone was derived from the literature. At the impingement site, magnitudes of von Mises stress amount to 0.57 MPa and tilting shear stress amount to -0.3 MPa at 2.5 mm interface distance. Conclusion can be drawn that worst-case impingement events are unlikely to pose a risk of bone material failure in the periphery around fully integrated cementless acetabular hip implants in otherwise healthy THA patients. As numerical predictions in the literature suggested, it can now be confirmed that impingement moments are unlikely to cause acetabular implant-bone interface fixation failures.

AbstractAn analytical study of the dependence of shear and von-Mises stress distributions, which develop during PVT (Physical Vapor Transport) growth of 4H-SiC, has been executed. The key parameters investigated include thermal conditions of the crystal growth and parameters of the growing boule geometry. The evaluation was conducted via a 24 full factorial DOE (Design of Experiments). Parameters of the growing boule geometry, i.e. seed diameter, growth front height, inclination angle and height of the side surface were set as the DOE factors, while responses were calculated using numerical simulations. It is found that unique SiC boule growth conditions, which simultaneously minimize both the shear stress and von Mises stress magnitudes, cannot be achieved. Optimization of the shear stress distribution favors longer SiC boules with small seed diameters, small expansion angles and flat growth fronts. Alternatively, optimization of von-Mises stress favors short crystals with small seed diameters and small expansion angles but with curved growth fronts. Consequently, optimization of stress components in SiC crystals involves careful investigation of the interaction and compromise of the reaction cell geometry and growth conditions.

This work determines the location of the greatest elastic distress in cylindrical contacts based upon the distortion energy and the maximum shear stress theories. The ratios between the maximum pressure, the von Mises stress, and the maximum shear stress are determined and fitted by empirical formulations for a wide range of Poisson ratios, which represent material compressibility. Some similarities exist between cylindrical and spherical contacts, where for many metallic materials the maximum von Mises or shear stresses emerge beneath the surface. However, if any of the bodies in contact is excessively compressible the maximum von Mises stress appears at the surface. That transitional Poisson ratio is found. The critical force per unit length that causes yielding onset, along with its corresponding interference and half-width contact are derived.

This paper investigates the effects of a free rail end on the contact stress distribution near the rail end by employing elastic-plastic finite element methods. The contact elements were used to simulate the interaction between a wheel and a rail. A plane strain model was used in this study. Variations in contact stress fields at various contact points near the rail end were compared. The availability of the Hertz contact theory in the region near the rail end was also investigated. The numerical results indicated that the contact stress distributions around the rail end are sensitive to the contact distance. The location of the maximum von Mises stress was shifted to the contact surface as the contact point moves close to the rail end. Results also show that the plastic zone size and the von Mises stress are increased gradually and extend to the rail end as the contact point moves near the rail end. A higher stress, larger deflection and serious plastic deformation occurring at the rail end may lead to deterioration and delamination at the rail end.

Reported in the paper is an elastic-plastic contact model developed to analyze the contact performance characteristics of materials with gradient yield strength. Plastic yielding and the strain-hardening properties of the materials are taken into account. The finite element method, the initial stiffness method, and a mathematical programming technique are utilized to solve the contact model. The von Mises yield criterion is used to determine the inception of plastic deformation. Results indicate that nitrided material with appropriate gradient of yield strength may greatly alter the distributions of contact stress, contact pressure as compared with untreated material in contact. The effects of different yield strength variation path of material on von Mises stress distributions are numerically investigated and discussed.

Abstract During vehicle braking and cornering, the tire's footprint region may see high normal contact pressures and in-plane shear stresses. The corresponding resultant forces and moments are transferred to the wheel. The optimal design of the tire bead area and the wheel requires a detailed knowledge of the contact pressure and shear stress distributions at the tire/rim interface. In this study, the forces and moments obtained from the simulation of a vehicle in stationary braking/cornering conditions are applied to a quasi-static braking/cornering tire finite element model. Detailed contact pressure and shear stress distributions at the tire/rim interface are computed for heavy braking and cornering maneuvers.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) matrix composite overwrap repair systems have been introduced and accepted as an alternative repair system for steel pipeline. This paper aimed to evaluate the mechanical behavior of damaged steel pipeline with CFRP repair using finite element (FE) analysis. Two different repair strategies, namely wrap repair and patch repair, were considered. The mechanical responses of pipeline with the composite repair system under the maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP) was analyzed using the validated FE models. The design parameters of the CFRP repair system were analyzed, including patch/wrap size and thickness, defect size, interface bonding, and the material properties of the infill material. The results show that both the stress in the pipe wall and CFRP could be reduced by using a thicker CFRP. With the increase in patch size in the hoop direction, the maximum von Mises stress in the pipe wall generally decreased as the maximum hoop stress in the CFRP increased. The reinforcement of the CFRP repair system could be enhanced by using infill material with a higher elastic modulus. The CFRP patch tended to cause higher interface shear stress than CFRP wrap, but the shear stress could be reduced by using a thicker CFRP. Compared with the fully bonded condition, the frictional interface causes a decrease in hoop stress in the CFRP but an increase in von Mises stress in the steel. The study results indicate the feasibility of composite repair for damaged steel pipeline.

The concept of stress is introduced in terms of interatomic forces acting through a plane, and in the Cauchy sense of a force per unit area on a plane in a continuum. Normal stresses and shear stresses are defined. Invariants of the stress tensor are derived and the von Mises shear stress is expressed in terms of them. The conditions for mechanical equilibrium in a continuum are derived, one of which leads to the stress tensor being symmetric. Stress is also shown to be the functional derivative of the elastic energy with respect to strain,which enables the stress tensor to be derived in models of interatomic forces. Adiabatic and isothermal stresses are distinguished thermodynamically and anharmonicity of atomic interactions is identified as the reason for their differences. Problems set 2 containsfour problems, one of which is based on Noll’s insightful analysis of stress and mechanical equilibrium.

In order to obtain a higher pressure capacity for the high-pressure die with a larger sample cavity, two types of two-layer split dies with a round cylinder and a quadrate cylinder were designed based on the conventional belt-type die. Finite element analysis was performed to investigate the stress distributions and pressure capacities of the high-pressure dies using a derived Mohr–Coulomb criterion and the von Mises criterion for the cylinder and supporting rings, respectively. As predicted by the finite element analysis results, in the two-layer split dies with a round cylinder, the stress state of the cylinder can be only slightly improved; and the von Mises stress of the first layer supporting ring can be hardly decreased. However, in the two-layer split dies with a quadrate cylinder and sample cavity, the stress state of the cylinder can be remarkably improved. Simultaneously, the von Mises stress of the supporting rings, especially for the first-layer supporting ring, can be also effectively decreased. The pressure capacities of the two-layer split dies with a round cylinder and a quadrate cylinder are 16.5% and 63.9% higher with respect to the conventional belt-type die.
